The plan called for the stricter curtailment of traps, stricter eniorcement of regu- | lations, less taking of herring, allo- | cating a certain number of boats to one area, similar to the plan carried out in Bristol Bay area, and a plan whereby fish hatcher- {es be established, received ser- ious attention. Andrew Hope of Sitka registered his objection to the shortening of the season and maintained that it was too drastic a cut and the end result would bé that a citi- zen would be deprived of the right to make a living. He supported Doc Walker's pro- posal that the fall season for chums open on October 5 rather' than October 15, maintaining that there would be no danger of catch- ing pinks as there were none in the streams at present. Arthur Johnson of Kake also sup- ported this starz on the dates tor! the chum season and stated that it | wouldn't ray fishermen to go out at the dat~ set by the F&WS, He add- e that the fear of losing gear in, hé tate October storms would keep | of the fishermen from ever pting to fish. | {@arl Weidman of the United Trol- | stated that in his opinion the yin difficulty in the fishing situa- | thon was that there was not enough Rpdtection of spawning, too many tpaps, too many boats, too many gillnets, and practieally no law en- gfcemem Citing a specific case of | olation that was never prosecuted | he said that there were a total of 22 boats fishing in the closed area at.
