EXCURSION | INLET MAY BE REBUILT Nick Bez infiulheast Al- aska Reports on Can- nery Operations ‘Whether or rebuild the | | not his company will Excursion Inlet can- nery recently acquired . by the Columbia River Packers Associa- | tion from Astoria and Puget Sound Packing Company will depend up- on -the fish run in the area this year and on the outlook for fu- ture runs, Nick Bez, chairman of the board of the CRPA said in Juneau Sunday The Excursion Inlet plant was completely destroyed by fire last spring. Fish from Excursion In- Jet will be canned by the Bez cannery at Todd this season. If there is any indication that the salmen run may increase, Bez hopes to rebuild Excursion Inlet. While the reports of the expedi- tion of the Pacific Explorer, ex- perimental floating cannery' oper- ated by Bez in conjunction with the U. S. government are not completed, Mr. Bez said that the Explorer’s trip was successful from an experimental standpoint. Fish- ing crab and bottom fish, in the Bering Seat as far as Ugashik, the Pacific Explorer found lots of crab, cod fish and other bottom fish not of marketable value. The Pacific Explorer operation was managed by J. N. Gilbert, Columbia River Packers Associa- tion and Bristol Bay Packing Com- pany operated jcintly at Dilling- Bam, completed the season with 62,500 cases, At Naknek where the Columbia River and Intercoastal operated jointly, the pack was 121,500 cases. LaMerced, the Bez floating can- nery operated at Pt. Moller, pack- ed 60,000 cases. These are mostly red salmon. Tuna off the coast aré¢ coming good, Bez said, and the CRPA albacore tuna pack js away ahead of any previous year at this time. Salmon in the Columbia River are better than normal up to now, with prospects of a good season An off-year for Puget Sound salmon, fishing is “about as good as can be expected in an ofi-cycle ' Bez said. . Bez, here for the opening of #he S. E. Alaska fishing season, ilew to Todd and Excursion Inlet yesterday and returned to Juneau last night. Bez reported today that the sea- son may bring good results based on his observations yesterday when that area was opened to fishing.
