o af P SOUTHEAST PACK IS STILL OFF HALF MILLION CASES Western District Nefs But| 40 Percent of 1944 Catch Showing salmon = patk is Alaska’s still running a little more than 600,000 showing, | cases behind last yea according to pack records here by the Fish Service, through Aug. 25. Half a million cases of the de- crease is the result of the very poor season this year in Southeast s, compiled Alaska, where only the Ketchikan and Wrangell-Petersburg districts have equaled last year's totals over a comparative period. The catch in the Western District is revealed as only about 40 per cent of that of last year. Of the three major fishing areas, only Central Alaska has made a better pack this year than last, so far—and, that séction is now | closed except for fall seasons at| Copper River and Chignik. Pack reports and totals, to Aug. 25, are as follows: SOUTHEAST ALASKA Ketchikan ‘Wrangell District Petersburg Reds 33,130 Reds 17,254 Kings 545 Kings 92 Pinks 357,762 Pinks 86,414 Chums ... 71,982 Chums 15,083 Cohoes 28,674 Cohoes 14,763 ‘Total 492,093 Total 133,606 1944 459,162 1944 132,878 Eastern (Final) Western (Final) | Reds 9,939 Reds 23,106 | Kings 207 Kings . 19 Pinks 89,838 Pinks 109,183 Chums 28,253 Chums 65,281 Cohoes 14,763 Cohoes 6,526 Total ..132,087 Total 204,115 1944 230,962 1944 498,068 | Iey Strait (Final) Yakutat Reds 13827 Reds 17,959 | Kings 278 Kings 564 | Pinks 45971 Pinks 18 Chums ....25,095 Chums 2 Cohoes, ...... 4,789 Cohoes 1,104 Total . 89,960 Total ...20,347 1944 ..206,624 1944 21,694 West Coast Reds (cases) 10,730 Kings (cases) % 4 « Pinks *(cases) ...83,702 Chums (cases) 22,537 Cohoes (cases) ....20,864 Total . ..137,907 1944 ...173,994 - CENTRAL ALASKA per River ring) . 170,897 Copper River (Fall) Reds 20 and Wildlife| comparative | | Kings 2 Kings ... 505 | Pinks . 53825 Pinks 490,398 Chums 27,163 Chums 62,880 Cohoes 27,829 Cohoes Total 248624 Total | 1944 324,996 1944 Chignik (Final) Alaska | Peninsu Reds 18,844 Reds | Kings 222 Kings | Pinks 18,330 Pinks | Chums 11,13¢ Chums Cohoes . 277 Cohoes Total 48,607 Total 1944 84,632 1944 264,087 | e e WESTERN ALASKA Port Moller Bristol Bay (Final) (Final) | Reds 32,621 Kings 23 Reds JGJ 831 Pinks 124 Kings 88 | Chums 24874 Chums 540 Cohoes 4,958 Cohoes 2,204 | Total 62,600 Total 641,953 | 1944 44234 194 982,792 | | AREA PACK TOTALS Southeast Alaska | Reds (cases 125,045 | Kings (cases) 1,779 | Pinks (cases) 773,588 | Chums (cases) 228,233 | Cohoes (cases) 80,570 !
