Cambois Bay, June 28th. — As this bay was the only one on the 
coast which would be likely to permit trawl fishing we gave a day of 
8 hours to it. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the day’s 
fishing was the great number of Anglers ( Lophius piscatorial) 
captured in the trawl — about 80 were caught during the day. A 
living Solen siliqua and several Echinocardium pennati/ulum were 
also obtained from the trawl. 
Cambois Bay, July 2nd. — Another day of 8 hours "was given 
to this bay at an interval of four days, and the results will be 
discussed later. The fishing Avas again very clean. There was 
a very heavy proportion of small and immature flat-fishes and 
gurnards, and in addition to the fishes the trawl brought in one or 
tAVO edible crabs, a shore crab, and several Corystes cassuelaunus. 
The Anglers Avere again very numerous. 
Alnmoutii Bay, July 9th. — Starting at 11-0 a.m. Ave traAvled 
until G'30 pan., Avhen the traAvling Avas brought to a sudden close 
by the breaking of the beam at the north-end of the bay more than 
probably on a piece of wreck. The hauls Avere very similar to the 
first detailed in Table III., and m each case the chief feature Avas the 
great quantity of small gurnards. There Avere also many small 
crabs and plaice, and one small turbot Avas noted likewise. In 
addition the traAvl brought in several Echinocardium pennatijidum, 
shore crabs, and one Ilyas araneus. 
Druridge Bay, July 16th. — Beginning at 10-20 we gave Si- 
hours to this bay. For the first time this season the number of 
large marketable fishes Avas conspicuously greater. There Avas a large 
number of soles, and of the total 11 were captured at the last haul. 
In the days when the in-sliore fishermen AA r ere in the habit of using 
small traAvls, that is Avhen the in-shore Avaters Avere open, the best 
catches of soles were made at night. A slight quantity of Aveed 
Avas picked up, but not sufficient to be a trouble. The Aveed as 
usual Avas swarming Avith Amphipods — Gammarus locusta and 
Paratylus suammerdami principally. Several Echinocardium pennati- 
jidum and Portunus holsatus were obtained. There Avere about 8 or 
9 Anglers at each haul. 
Cambois Bay, July 23rd. — Another day of 8 hours Avas given to 
this bay, and the results will be referred to later. A gurnard Avas 
caught on this occasion, Avhicli Ave have not seen before at any of 
the excursions during the last 6 years. This Avas the Sapphirine 
Gurnard —Triyla hirundo. It is easily distinguished from the 
common gurnard by the large pectoral fins, Avhicli are dark blue
