both sides of the scrccn-net, being- settled in series on the tops of the banks 
extending toward the offing. The beach consists only of gravel and the sea 
water is very clear.

The FitJcjibc-avii which makes the best catch along this coast is ahvays 
the nearest one to the beach in every series of the net. This is caused, if the 
preceding various explanations be true, by the fact that the lOO-F-line is very 
near the beach and the tidal current in deeper water is slackened by the sub- 
marine banks, so that the Holani-ika can easily come near the coast along the 
quite valley-like depression with clear water. And it seems also to depend 
upon the fact that this coast is situated in the central part of the whole coast 
in Toyama Prefecture where Holarn-ika are caught. 
b) Uozu coastiVX. Ill, fig. 5). The eastern part of this coast is very deep, 
the 5c-F-line as well as lOO-F-line being very near the shore. In this 
western part, though the valle\'s are as numerous as at Namerikawa their 
depth is not so great as there, and the lOO-F-line is very far from the shore. 
There are in this coast about 10 Fiikube-aini, 2 of which are fixed at the east- 
ern end of this coast and used to catch other fish. The remaining 8 belong 
either to the Fukube-ami following the current or that with a double-opening.
