Johnny spends a lot of time fishing - it's his main source of food (the picture shows him doing a spot of moonlight fishing at low tide).
He commonly catches:
-
An old boot
-
A crab
-
A star fish
all of which he usually throws back, but he sometimes puts the boot behind his tree.

When Johnny lands the crab, the crab bites Johnny on the nose, which is why he throws him back.
