Though taken generally between Otago Harbour and Hawke 
Bay, the number of Moki secured by the trawl was not great. 
The fishes were taken between the vertical limits of 11 and 43 
fathoms. During the extended period it was secured in large 
numbers in Great Exhibition Bay, almost at the northern 
extremity of the Dominion. When at the Chatham Islands we 
set nets and secured it in company with Tarakihi (Cheilodac- 
tylus macropterus) and other species.
