    (continued from previous page)
    There are two ropes on every net, a cork rope and a lead rope and their length is sixty four yds.
    When a man is fishing he takes a man with him in the boat to throw out the net. A man also remains on the bank to hold the rope but he cannot stay standing he must keep moving.
    It is also a law that the must keep within seven feet of the other bank this is called the Queen's Path.
