CHEAP FISH IN AUCKLAND.
LOWER THAN FOR SOME TIME.
VERY PLENTIFUL SUPPLY.
Fish are very plentiful in Auckland at present, the recent favourable weather having allowed of good hauls being made. In consequence prices for a number of lines have been reduced, and the public are able to buy fish more cheaply than for a considerable time past. Messrs. Sanfords' trawlers, Kahu and Baroona, have returned after successful operations in the Bay of Plenty, while good catches have been made in the Hauraki Gulf by the City Council's trawlers, Simplon and Cowan.
The catcheg comprised mixed fish, principally schnapper and tarakihi. Flounders are stated to be coming forward in good numbers from Thames and Kaipara. The James Cosgrove, the largest trawler in Messrs. Sanfords' fleet, is at present operating off the west coast.
