PROTECTING AN
ALASKAN ASSET
(Juneau Empire)
For a good many years,
more than a quarter of a
century, Wes Myers, of
Ketchikan, veteran guide,
fisherman, hunter and real
sportsman, has been taking
visiting sportsmen around
in the Territory of Alaska
in search of prize heads,
handsome rainbow trout
and all the other trophies
the vast outdoors of the
north offers. In those years
Myers has become well ac
quainted with wild life in
the Territory, and a great
many of the people that
come up here in search of
it.
Commenting on the mat
ter while here with a big
game party, the pioneer
guide declared it his belief
that one of the most import
ant things to be done right
now if Alaska is to remain
a great fishing paradise is
to protect game fish. Not
primarily, from what has
been widely heralded as the
“game hog,” but, rather,
from plane transportation
and growing interest in Al
aska. He points out that
with the airplane capable
of reaching fishing grounds
in hours which therefore
required weeks of tough
tramping in the woods,
there is acute danger of
lakes and streams being
fished out unless some reg
ulation is set up limiting
the catch and then replant
ing fishing grounds where
the supply threatens to be
come depleted.
In this connection, Myers
said that it has been his ex
perience in recent years
that camera and fishing
pole are replacing the gun
among sportsmen coming
to the north. The big ma
jority of the outdoor part
ies seem primarily interest
ed in catching some of Al
aska’s famous fish, he finds,

and big game hunters are
learning more and more to
taking pictures of the big
brown bear, sheep and oth
I er wild life rather than get
ting a prize head.
Sportsmen from the states
such as Corey Ford.Alastair
MacBain and others, have
previously reminded us of
the growing interest in Al
aska fishing and the need,
as they see it, of preserving
the fish as a natural asset.
The same thought coming
from an Alaskan well ac
quainted with conditions
over a long period would
indicate there is more to it
than simple theory.
In the years to come the
travel tide to the north will
grow, and in it will be the
fishermen, encouraged by
the accessibility of fishing
grounds due to increased
air transportation. If Alas
ka is to capitalize on its
natural assets, it appears
not a bit too early to con
serve that portion of them
which can very easily be
depleted, as conditions in
the states testify. Tourists
can’t carry away Mount
McKinley, but they can
very well eliminate good
sport fishing over a period
of years unless restrictions
ae put in effect.
