Rhode, Alaska director of | the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.| Salmon fishing in both sections] | was opened Monday at 6 a.m., the |date for northern waters having been advanced a week because of’ | general early seeding. Both seine and trap catches are | fairly strong in Icy Strait, said | Rhode today. Reports on five seine boats for Monday and Tuesday showed an average of more than {4,000 fish a day. | More than 100 boats appeared in| | the Anan Creek area (near Wran- gell) on opening day, their seines all but entangling each other in the rush. The catch was there, to0; ) one packer had delivered 90,000 fish from that area alone. | “It looks like a fairly strong runj 'in upper Ernest Sound,” commented | Rhode, as he discussed the excep-| tional areas. Fishing will close September 3, according to Rhode, there should be strong evidence of wunusually good runs, in which case, there might ke an extension. Air surveys and surface patrols are being used to observe the runs in the outside waters of the Sitka area, where the season is scheduled This was the chief exception to the early opening in the northern section, and extends roughly from) Cape Spencer to the southern tip of Baranof Island. It is expected that seeding will be adequate; it not, a postponement of several days would be announced not later than tomcrrow. Observers are aboard an arplane brought from Anchorage for that purpose, and two FWS patrol vessels. i “There is no question of opening | the eastern shore south of Ju- nea,” said Rhode today. (This ex- tends approximately from Midway Island to Petersburg, along the mainland.) “Production there,” he said, “where it used to be good, has been absolutely nothing forwithe last three years. Because of deple- tion, it definitely will remain Chances of its being: re- stocked are good, as there is a comparatively good showing of fish over a large drainage.” WOMAN AVIATRIX TAKING ANOTHER HOP FOR ICELAND REYKJAVIK, Iceland, Aug 17.7‘ (#—Mys.
