Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-Third Annual Report of the Fishery Board for Scotland, Vol. 1 of 3: Being for the Year 1904 My Lord Marquess, In continuation of our Twenty-third Annual Report we have the honour to submit - Part III. - Scientific Investigations. General Statement. This part of the Twenty-third Annual Report deals with the scientific investigations conducted by the Board in 1904 in connection with the sea fisheries of Scotland, so far as these have been completed, by means of the Parliamentary Vote granted for the purpose. The scientific work has been carried out and the scientific report prepared under the supervision of Dr. T. Wemyss Fulton, the Scientific Superintendent. The researches have been made for the most part at the Board's Marine Laboratory at the Bay of Nigg, Aberdeen, which was erected and equipped some years ago. The sea-fish hatchery is also situated at the same place, and a statement as to its operations during the year will be found below. The provision of a suitable boat in connection with the Laboratory would be of much advantage in carrying on the investigations. The investigations into the condition of the fishing grounds, more particularly in the Moray Firth and Aberdeen Bay, which were begun five years ago by means of steam-trawlers, were continued last year as frequently as circumstances allowed.
