Abstract
The author observed certain geographical features of Hamanabuto through their relations to the particular forms of fishing implements used.
1) I found that at Hamanabuto, the fishermen's use of implements were controlled by certain rigid understandings amongst themselves, such as obtains nowhere else in this peninsula.
2) The underlying causes, I have traced them to several human factors well as to certain natural advantages.
3) Of the forty five fishing pockets in this region, some have natural advantages while others have not.
4) In winter the young yellow-tails, and in summer the isaki (Parapristipoma japonicum), are caught by this fishing-net, and sent to the Tôkyô market.
