Thus, out of 61 soles tried only 3, or 5 per cent., died, 
so this goes to show that the young sole if returned to the 
sea has an excellent chance of living. The kind of net 
used appears to have little or no influence upon the result. 
We shall now give a few examples of our vitality 
experiments, from the statistics, in which other fish are 
dealt with.
