| Summary: | caplin scull n The caplin come to the shallow water in countless myriads to spawn. They are somewhat like a sardine, only a little larger. Further north these caplin visit the shore later in the year. They are followed always by immense numbers of cod. I have seen cod also so thick that even in deep water there seemed no room for them, their backs being constantly out of water. This is called the "caplin school," and on the catch of cod during their visit the success of a whole fishery will depend. PRINTED ITEM DNE-cit G.M.
