a fishing net and a senne (net). There are some that weigh 700 pounds.This fish salts like cod but much better.The croupia is a very good fish which can weigh fifty pounds, round face and swims sideways. It is one of the best in Cayenne. Common, it is fished with an arrow and with a senne.The loubine is of two species. One is very good like the best pike whose face it has.The other tastes like a muse, can be fished as below, common. The mulet, like the abundant European one, is fished by arrow and senne. A few years ago, he had a catch of this pleasant fish, several small canoes with small nets on their canoes swam by force and head on. The mulet, to protect itself, jumped and fell in their nets. They took a lot of them in this manner. Parassir is what we call meuille in La Rochelle. It is very abundant and very good in their best season just as in France. It should be noted that all these fish are caught around a small forest that the Indians maintain. They block a creek with screens (boards). They pile the planks in the canoes and wall the creek up. They take a large quantity of fish of all species. Akoupa has flesh almost like that of whiting, with the shape of a pike. Some can be four feet long like loubines. The Apalika, much like the shad. The Moonfish, a very good passing fish, is fished with arrow and senne.The Big eyes stay on the shores of the sea. The Frog eyes. It is good, it can be fished with a torch, with a senne and the arrow. Very common. The karande looks like salmon, rare.There is a fish whose name I could not find out which is the best you can eat. It is flat and reddish with a round face, rare.The resi is of three species. One like that of France. One called a devil who has very long horns very dangerous when caught on the line. If the one whoever takes it doesn't take their line right away, it takes the canoe so fast that it is hard to get away with it. There were Negroes who were drowned by this fish. I saw some who could weigh up to seven hundred pounds. They are fished with folle net. Mr. Barrere drew it as well as lots of all these fish. The other species taken in fresh water is best, fished like I said. The sardine is like that of France but bad. The machoran is of two species, one yellow and the other white. The yellow one is very big, a big fish that can be caught with the arrow, on a line. Scaleless, both species are very abundant.The grunt (grondeux) is aptly named and is caught with aline. It?s a godsend resource for Cayenne. Pasanis, almost like machoran, better.
