When inclined to examine the net, the framework may 

 l)e raised by tlie tow-rope lii<rli enongli to lodge tlie wooden 

 beam over the edge of the boat''H stern, — butliiglier than that 

 is unnecessary : the tail of the net is to be liandcd in, untied, 

 and tlie contents slialcen into a tub for examination. 'J'he 

 tail of the net being rctied, the frame may be lowered and 

 towed about as before ; and while the net is at work at the 

 bottom, the collector may be engaged over the contents of his 

 tub at the top.
