The French were allowed landing and shore rights from April 15th to October 5th annually (Convention of 1857) and established numerous fishing stations, complete with permanent shore facilities. This agreement was laid down in the Treaty of Utrecht 1713. The second treaty period lasted 1783 to 1904 when the concession was lost. Main source of income on the "French Shore" was cod fish.
