A large one was about sixty fathoms long. It was set from an oar-propelled boat, into the stern of which it had been piled. It was used in shallow water about five or six fathom deep. It was shot (set) in a circular shape, so that the last end overboard could be brought near enough to the first end, so that both ends would be on board for hauling purposes.
