Portuguese term or phrase: passou pra âncora
P/1 – Quando o senhor pescava, o senhor pescou durante muitos anos, como que era a rotina no período de pesca, como que era quando saía pro mar, quanto tempo ficava?

R – Olha, a gente, nós usamos muito tempo a pescaria de rede de espera, conforme essa que eu falei com você no começo, que era rede de espera através de pedras segurava a rede, hoje, depois passou pra âncora, a gente usava uma âncora de seis a oito quilos pra colocar de duas em duas redes, cada duas peças de rede a gente colocava numa âncora, sabe, então a gente fazia o seguinte, no dia de colocar essa rede a gente saía do porto pro lado de dez, 11 horas do dia, com tudo arrumado pra chegar lá no mar soltar.
