EMPIRE REPORTER SEES HOW FISHERIES PATROL BY PLANE WORKS OUT | f the bay to locate the markers within which it is illegal to fish. The boat is seen to be well witltn he markers, so the Fairchild swings 1o the wind and sideslips to a anding beside the anchored boat, to which a loné fisherman has by now brought his still-flopping load' of fish. Conversation between a Wild- life Agent and the fisherman is al- most painfully polite. “How'’s fishing?” “Oh, just fair. “This your boat.” “No, it belongs to———. working on the sein “Where'd you ta these fish?” “Qver yonder.” (pointing cutside the closed area) “I made a drift just this side ©f the big snag.” “When was that?” “Oh. it must have been an hour ago. Maybe hour and a half.” “These fish are still flopping “They’ll do that for a long time.! That doesn’t mean anything.” “What kind of gear have you got here?” | “Oh, it's perfectly legal. That's a gill net.” | “What were you doing heading out of the mouth of ‘the stream| when we came along?” “Well, after I took these fish on| a drift over yonder, I ran up here| tc have a look around.” “You mean you pushed that load | of fish up into the stream with, your little skiff?” | “Can’t’ a man just come in to nave a look around? I've done it| lots of times. i i “Let me tell , Oscar, you're on! | pretty thin ice. Now lev's go over! |the whole thing. | Suspset Weakens They go over it'and the fisher- man cighs a statement detailing his movements from the time he made ‘the drift until the plane drop- | ped in on him. The Agent checks the license blate on the boat, the fisherman’s license and inspects the | net and the fish. | By this time the fisherman is protesting: “You guys are always| | picking up us little fellows. The big fellows get away with it right| along.” “Not this year, brother.” The fisherman ‘is told to come | into Juneau under his own power te face charges of fishing in a clos- ed area. He comes in the following day, having thought it all over to the extent that he pleads guilty and pays a fine of $100. It will be a | y‘whilc before he'll poach again, es—} pecially while planes are in the air. No Fun ) The Fairchild is off again. While the methodical patrolling continues, | the arresting Agent explains what is | perfertly’ chvious "by this tinie' to the reporter, that it is no pleasure to have to arrest a man for violat- | ing the fishing regulations, but that only in this way can the viola-| tor be taught to'respect the law| and the salmon escapément be pro-| tected. . The plane passes Pack Creek and gains altitude over Windfall Har-7 bor to cross Admiralty Island. In a few minutes it is high over 'Has- ceivorg and Thayer TLakes and “is heading down'a lcng divide toward Fishery Point on Chatham Strait.
