1. The first example of symbolism is the apprentice. The boy symbolizes his failure to catch a fish. Even though Santiago wants it so bad, he continues to have no luck with catching anything. That is the same with the boy. Santiago loves him so much and wants him to keep working with him, his parents force him to quit.
2. The second symbol is the carcas of the marlin. It represents Santiago's hard work. He tryed so hard and he finally caught the fish he deserved.
