202 APPENDIX. 



In general appearance the Slob Trout looks like the Common Trout, as I have said, but 

 in certain structural characters it reminds one of the Salmon Trout. In its migratory habits 

 it more closely resembles this latter fish, although the Common Trout is known occasionally 

 to adopt migratory habits, and to descend to the sea. 



The word slob, of which slab and slop are only other forms, denotes wet and loose mud, 

 such as is usually abundant at the estuaries of rivers. The Trout descend with the tide to 

 the slob, where they remain till the return of the tide.
