S03IE CURIOSITIES OF 192«
From tlie Wrangell Sentinel. . ,
Fred Wigg came in on the Hal
; ryon Tuesday night from a trip to
l Union Bay, Eaton Point and Point
! Watkins. He brailed the traps in
\ that area that are fishing for the
I Sanitary Packing Company, who
| have the local A. P. A. cannery un
j der lease for the year. His total
I amount of lisli was between two
I
! thousand and twenty-live hundred
The Sanitary Packing Company have
up about two thousand cases at the
present time. Their, normal pack
! would be between fifteen and twenty
| thousand. So far this season the
cannery has not run more than
three hours at a time.
, * * *
The Coulter-Jenkins trap located
at Ratz Harbor lias turned in about
fifteen hundred lift in two lifts.
The Gunderson traps located at
Olive Cove have reported that the!
largest lift they have had so far is j
about fifteen hundred. The wind !
has kept them from brailing their
traps for several days.
(Ed. Note—Olive Cove is a closed
area—to fishermen. Under Bureau
conservation methods, it is proper
to catch the fish before they get to
the ’spawning area.
The F. C. Barnes Co., at Lake ■
Bay have had very few fish. So *
far they have put up only about !
2500 cases, mostly reds. However,
the indications yesterday were that
the fish are coming at last and it
is expected that they will be busy
from now until the end of the *sea
son.
(Ed. Note—There’s one consola
tion Frank, they are all expecting
| the fish LATER.
Leonard Sundblad, superintendent
of the Burnet Inlet Packing Com
pany was in town last Saturday. i
Mr. Sundblad said everything is in |
readiness at Burnett to get up their;
pack. The only thing LACKING
IS THE FISH. On last Saturday ,
Burnet had 493 cases up. This is .
in contrast to 10,000 eases this time :
in July 1923; 10,000 cases in 1925
and less than 4,000 in 1926. Last]:
year Burnett had only a half pack
up when the season closed.
Capt. Salinger of the Marguerite
reports that he brailed about a
thousand fish yesterday from the
Steamer Bay trap of the Diamond
K Co. The fish were about evenly
divided in species, half being hump
ies and the other half sockeyes.
Julius Mason came in with about
two thousand fi3li for the Sanitary
Packing Compauy. The fish were
brailed from the Narrow Point trap,
traps. The run of salmon have not
shown up in this area yet.
Ed. Note—Another consolation—
They have not shown up in r.ny area
yet. But—Breed late fi3l. means
catch LATE fish, so the canners in
this nec kof the waters can hope
for awhile that the fish sh ws up
