ANGLING IN SALT WATER,

THE PLAICE. 



PLAICE and Flounders are angled for from 

 a boat, and are chiefly caught between Folk- 

 stone and Hastings ; they bite freely at a Lob 

 Worm, Shrimp, or half an Oyster. These fish 

 having small mouths you must use the same 

 sized hook as when fishing for Turbot. Large 

 Flounders are taken in Ramsgate Harbour with 

 the same tackle; they will be found at mid-water 

 as well as at the bottom.
