SALMON
ISHING
F
ON PUGET SOUND
TO BE CURTAILED
Periods Will 80 From August 26
to September 15, and From
October 26 to Following May 1.
PURSE SEINERS MAKE LAST START
' Seattle, July IS "The order of the
state fisheries board, closing all salmon
fishing on Puget sound from August 26
to September 15, and from October 26
to May 1 of the following year, la the
subject of more discussion than any
other order made by It since It came
into official existence on April 1 last."
mya L. H. Darwin, secretary of the
board and state supervisor of fisheries.
"The reason for this, of course, is that
? it curtails salmon fishing- to a much
greater extent than it has ever before
been curtailed in the history of the
state. The cessation of fishing opera
tions between August 26 and September
15 will not only permit a considerable
percentage of the last Of the soekeye
run to reach the spawning grounds, pro
viding the Canadian fishery officials will
establish a similar closed season, but it
will permit of 65 to 85 per cent of the
humpback salmon escaping to the
hatchery and spawning streams.
SOCKETE DEVON GROWS
"While the order of the state fisheries
board has been made withoutany refer
ence to similar action by the Canadian
fishery officials. It is the sincere hope
of the board that the Canadian officials
will take similar action."
The tale of the soekeye depletion Is
told by the fact that the years of the
great quadrennial run of this species
nave shown a drop of from over 1,600,
999 eases in 1911 to 450,000 cases in
1117 ; but the public is not so well ac
quainted with the fact that the hump
back run has suffered nearly if not
quite so much.
In 1913 humpback salmon were -hardly
fished for, and those that were caught
1 sold at from a cant to a cent and a half
apiece, and in many instance were paid
for and thrown away. Four years later
they were intensively fished for and
commanded an average price of some
23 cents each, while by 1919 they had
risen to an average price of 35 cent and
In some instances commanded as high
as 45 cents per fish.
EGGS TAKE SHOP
So intensive was the fishing for hump
backs carried on in 1917 and 1919 that
very few reached the hatchery streams
and their natural spawning grounds.
The decrease is graphically shown by
the figures of the egg take of this
species by the United States bureau of
fisheries, which has hatcheries on those
Washington streams to which the hump
backs resort in the largest numbers.
From a take of 42,161,600 eggs in 1915,
.they dropped to 17,315,000 in 1917, and to
only 93.000 in 1919.
The egg take in the Washington state
hatcheries of the humpback species
. dropped from 6,143,600 in 1915 to 2,283,
050 hi 1919.
These were the facts confronting the
state fisheries board, and when taken
la conjunction with the fact that the
pack in 1919 was only about 50 per cent
of what it was in 1917, undoubtedly in
fluenced it to the decision that If the
humpback salmon run Is to be rehabili
tated and perpetuated, immediate and
effective action is necessary.
The establishment of a closed season
from October 26 to May 1 of the fol
lowing year is to permit of a larger
number of silverside, chum or dog and
steelhead salmon escaping to the hatch
ery streams and natural spawning
grounds.
