"a very encouraging picture”.
He said the sectors opened to
fishing "in almost every instance
are lagging far behind last year’s
comparative dates.
"There is a big red production
in a sector of Bristol however.
The first day's catch was normal
on the Columbia year, but the
run continues to slacken, with
packers getting only enough fish
to pack two or three days each
week.”
The run on the southern side of
the Alaska Peninsula, is reported
to be only half that of last year.
Other districts are lagging behind
as much as 80 percent from last
year's records.
