of protection when they shed. These 

 grass pots may be a way to entice the 

 mainly male crab population into the 

 pot, and the pot will allow for easy har- 

 vest by the fishermen. 



Coastwatch will report what the 

 scientists find out in a later issue. 



If you've ever seen a stranded 

 dolphin or whale on the beach and 

 weren't sure what to do, you may want 

 a copy of a new UNC Sea Grant 

 Blueprint, Beached Marine Mam- 

 mals. It describes steps on handling 

 marine mammals and gives local and 

 regional telephone numbers to call for 

 help. 



For a free copy of this Blueprint, 

 write UNC Sea Grant. Ask for publica- 

 tion number UNC-SG-BP-84-2. 



If sport fishing is your game, then 

 UNC Sea Grant has two fishing charts 

 # that could help you locate prime 

 "fishing holes" before you leave the 

 docks. The first chart shows fishing 

 locations near Masonboro Inlet on one 

 side, and the locations off Beaufort In- 

 let on the other. The second chart 

 covers the waters around Roanoke 

 Island and those off Oregon Inlet. 



Both charts include loran headings 

 and are designed as a navigational aid. 

 They are place mat size and water- 

 proof. For your copy, send $1 for each 

 chart to UNC Sea Grant. Be sure to 

 specify which chart you're ordering. 



f \ Jim Murray, director 

 / fP\\ of UNC Sea Grant's 

 / \ Marine Advisory Ser- 



^BfetgJI I vice, and Jeff Johnson, 

 ?«B§SgB' an anthropologist at 

 ^^^^^^ East Carolina Univer- 



^iaS^ sity, have received a 

 second year's grant from the National 

 Marine Fisheries Service to develop a 

 program that will increase the demand 

 for underutilized fish among recrea- 

 tional fishermen in the Southeast. 



"We will be building on the 

 marketing research that was done in 

 year one," Murray says. "We'll be 

 choosing 10 to 12 species of fish to 

 target for a major educational cam- 

 paign, fishing tournaments, posters, 

 brochures, radio spots and television 

 programs." 



Murray and Johnson will be work- 

 ing closely with Sea Grant's Southeast 

 Marine Advisory Service to develop 

 programs and disseminate informa- 

 tion.
