Attempted to get up early to dredge and townet, but, through misunder¬ 
standing, Charley and Dexter failed to wake me. Changed alcohol of jars and 
at 8:45 began on fish stomachs again.

Packing. In afternoon at 3*00 tried out dredges and watched from 
diving hood. Mills dredge worked best 9 ft. af water, 8 fms. rope 3/4 inch 
at slow speed, 2 miles per hr. Big rock pattern dredge with 6 fms. rope, 
■V 
9 ft. water at half speed, 4 miles per hour worked O.K. Little dredge not so 
good. 
Small rock dredge built by Mills to fit his small was too light to 
be of much use. Too light and middle cross bars tended to block opening too 
much. More line and heavier weight might have helped, but fact remains that 
Mills dredge proved most satisfactory.
