DRAW-Net, a kind of net for taking the larger sort
of wildfowl, which ought to be made of the best sort
of packthread, with wide meshes; they should be
about two fathoms deep and six long, verged on each
side with a very strong cord, and stretched at each end
on long poles. It should be spread smooth and flat
upon the ground; and strewed over with grass, sedge,
or the like, to hide it from the fowl; and the sport-
sman is to place himself in some shelter of grass, fern,
or some such thing.
