Fishery statistics of the United States are compiled and published annually to make
available informationon both the economic and biological aspects of the domestic commercial

fisheries.

Data on the economic aspects are necessary to persons engaged in the commercial fishery
and to governmental agencies concerned with its regulation and protection. Those here given
cover the total catch and value by species, the yield and value of manufactured products,
the employment of men, craft, and gear in the capture of fishery products; and related infor-
mation.

From the biological standpoint these data are important to sound fishery management in
providing detailed information on fluctuations in the commercial catch by species, locality,
and gear, and type of craft operated. They assist conservation agencies in regulating the
commercial fisheries so as to produce maximum yields without depletion.

Previous statisticalreports on the fishery industries were issued under the Department of
the Interior in the Administrative Report series for 1938 andinthe Statistical Digest series for
succeeding years. Reports for preceding years were issued inthe Administrative Report series
of the former Bureau of Fisheries.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The data in this edition of "Fishery Statistics of the United States" were collected,
tabulated, and prepared for publication by the staff of the Branch of Fishery Statistics under
the direction of Charles H. Lyles, assisted by Stacey C. Denham, Francis Riley, and B. G.
Thompson. Compilation of this report was under the supervision of Harry S. Davis. Field
surveys were supervised by the various regional and area offices. Project leaders in charge
of field surveys were: Dwight L. Hoy, New England, Middle Atlantic, and Chesapeake States;
George W. Snow, South Atlantic and Gulf States; Victor J. Samson, California, Charles M.
Reardon, Washington and Oregon; William K. Evans, Alaska; Howard J. Buettner, Great Lakes
and Mississippi River States; and Thomas S. Hida, Hawaii.

The cooperation of the many contributors is gratefully acknowledged. Cooperators are
given credit for their information in the section of the report in which the data appear.

PREFACE

This report contains a review of the fishery statistics for the year 1963 collected by
the Branch of Fishery Statistics, Division of Economics. These statistics include data on the
volume and value of the catch of fishery products, employment in the fisheries, quantity of
gear operated, number of fishing craft employed in the capture of fishery products, information
on the volume and value of the production of manufactured fishery products, data on cold
storage freezings and holdings, and on foreign trade in fishery commodities.

Data on employment of fishermen, fishing craft and gear in the fisheries, and on the
catch of fish, shellfish, etc., are shown for States having commercial fisheries. There is
also information on the pack of canned tuna and industrial products for Puerto Rico and American
Samoa included in the manufactured products tables. Insection 11, Puerto Rico; thereis also
shown operating units.

In all of the catch tables in this report, except the one on page 31 entitled, "U.S.
Catch, 1963 - Live Weight Basis," the volume of fish, crustaceans, and such mollusks as
squid is shown in round (live) weight. However, the weights shown for univalve and bivalve
mollusks (conchs, clams, oysters, scallops, etc.) represent the weights of meats, excluding
the shell. The weight of shells omitted from the catch in 1963 amounted to about 1.3 billion
pounds. It shouldbe noted, however, thatthe table on page 32 "World Catch of Fish, Crusta-
ceans, Mollusks, Etc., by Countries" is shown on a live weight basis.

In assembling the data onthe fisheries, all appropriate records collected by the various
State fishery agencies were used. In certain areas, information complete enough to be used by
the Statistical agents was available from State agencies, and in these States, only partial
surveys were conducted. Information on the means of collecting the data and an explanation
of terms used may be found in Section 14 of this publication.

Complete statistical surveys covering the fisheries ofthe United States were conducted
in all areas for 1963. The first complete survey of the fisheries of the United States was made
by the Bureau of the Census for 1908. Others were made by the Bureau of Fisheries and the
Fish and Wildlife Service for the years 1931, 1950, and for the years 1954 to 1960 and for
1962.

To assist persons interested inreviewing historical statistics of the domestic fisheries,
a bibliography was published inthe 1956 edition of "Fishery Statistics of the United States",
listing the sources ofdata on the fisheries of the various regions of the United States for the
years from 1880 to 1956.

SECTION 1 - GENERAL REVIEW

In 1963, the commercial fisheries of the United States yielded a catch of 4.8 billion
pounds, worth $377 million to the fishermen. The volume was 507 million pounds and $19
million less than the previous year. The average value was 7.78 cents per pound. Record
catches of flounders, clams, and crabs were taken. The catch was made by 128,470 fisher-
men operating 11,928 vessels of 5 net tons and greater, and 66,045 motor and other boats.
Compared with 1962, there was an increase of 2,137 fishermen, 417 vessels, and 1,823
boats. Most of the increase was in shrimp otter trawlers and salmon trollers. Several large
tuna purse seiners were also added tothe fleet. The average lengths and ages of the vessels
were about the same as the previous year. Many new vessels entered the shrimp, salmon,
and menhaden fisheries, but the number was not large enough to make any substantial change
from the previous year. Four New England groundfish vessels were constructed under the
vessel construction subsidy bill.

Principal States. Louisiana again led with a total of 761 million pounds--nearly 16 percent
ofthe entire U.S. catch. California was next with 514 million pounds (11 percent) , followed by
Massachusetts, 468 million pounds (10 percent); and Alaska, 392 million (8 percent). Six
States (Alaska, California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, and Virginia) accounted
for 59 percent of the total U.S. landings. California led in value with $49 million, followed
by Alaska, $46 million; and Massachusetts, $41 million. San Pedro, Calif., was again the
leading port, with landings of 348 million pounds, followed closely by Pascagoula, Miss.,
Empire, La., and Cameron, La., 300, 253, and 238 million pounds, respectively.

Groundfish. The catch of ocean perch at New England ports in 1963 was only 108 million
pounds--the lowest since 1940, and nearly 16 million pounds less than in 1962. The price
improved a bit in 1963, but the increase was not sufficient to stimulate the already depressed
fishery. The Massachusetts ocean perch fishery suffered the most severe loss. Landings
in that State were 19 percent less than in 1962. Few vessels were added to the ocean perch
fishing fleet during 1963, and sinkings and transfers more than offset these additions. Be-
cause of the continued depressed ex-vessel price, this fleet put less effort into the fishery.
The Maine catch of ocean perch was down 8 percent from the previous year.

The catch of haddock, 124 million pounds, was 10 million pounds (8 percent) less
than in the previous year, but the value increased $792,000. The principal reason forthe
increased value was the greater proportion of large haddock taken. While large haddock
normally demand a higher price than scrod, the price situation, because of a somewhat less
plentiful supply, was generally improved for all sizes.

The 42.1-million-pound catch of Atlantic cod was 4.7 million pounds less than in 1962,
but the Pacific coast catch of 6.4 million pounds was double that of 1962.

Halibut. The 1963 catch of 99.8 million pounds of halibut (round weight) inthe eastern North
Pacific, was nearly identical to that of 1962. The catch was made by fishermen from three
nations--United States, Canada, and Japan. This was the first time the Japanese fished in
the North Pacific underthe rules of the International Pacific Halibut Commission. The United
States catch (45.6 million pounds worth $6.9 million) was down 15 percent in volume and 41
percent in value, while the Canadian production was up 7 percent. The record Canadian catch
exceeded the United States production for the first time.

Sea herring. The catch of sea herring during 1963 totaled 193.6 million pounds worth $2.4
million, down 3 percent in volume and 24 percent in value compared with 1962. Imports of
fresh Canadian sea herring which are used principally for canning and reduction in Maine,
were 45.5 million pounds--17 million pounds less than in 1962. The Maine pack of sardines
canned from sea herring declined 500,000 cases or 25 percent in volume and 34 percent in

GENERAL REVIEW

value. Small herring were plentiful throughout the season, but heavy stocks of canned sar-
dines and slow sales caused canners to curtail operation. The catch would have been even
less had there not been a greater use of herring for bait. In Alaska, where the catch is used
for reduction to fish meal or for bait, landings were 31 million pounds--the smallest since
1917.

Pacific and jack mackerel. The combined 1963 catch of 136 million pounds of Pacific and
jack mackerel was 2 percent, or 2.9 millionpounds lessthan in 1962. With areducedCali-
fornia sardine production, canners substituted mackerel for the sardine export trade. This
kept the mackerel fleet fishing most of the year. In December 1963, the vessel owners at
San Pedro, Calif., asked for a$10-a-ton increase for mackerel; however, the canners did not
agree to this request and fishing was discontinued for the rest of the year. This tie-up had
little or no effect on the 1963 production because the fleet normally remains in port the latter
part of December. The 1963 catch could have been considerably larger, but the canners'
nightly catch limit of 20 to 30 tons per vessel curtailed production. The entire catch of
mackerel is used for canning. During 1963, ex-vessel prices remained constant at $42.50
per ton for both Pacific and jack mackerel. These prices have been in effect since March 1961.

Menhaden. The catch of menhaden was 1,815,798,000 pounds--23 percent less than in 1962.
The decline occurred chiefly in the New England, Middle Atlantic, and Chesapeake States,
where the total was 632 million pounds--about 500 million pounds less than in 1962. The
catch of 968 million pounds in the Gulf was 8 percent lessthan in the previous year. An in-
crease of almost 60 million pounds occurredin the South Atlantic, principally because of the
North Carolina catch. Weather is an important factor in North Carolina, for most of the
fishing is done in late November, December, and early January. In some years, storms pre-
vent fishing and disperse the schools; but in 1963, the weather permitted more fishing than
in the previous year.

The menhaden catch was taken by 179 vessels--1 less than in the previous year.
The trend to replace older vessels with larger, more modern craft continued. Larger and
lighter seines were replacing old seines and more refrigerated vessels were used. The con-
tinuing trend ofincreased imports of fish meal was not a factor inlimiting the catch: Greater
use of fish meal kept prices relatively stable during 1963. The industry expressed concern
over the continuing decline in menhaden landings in the North and Middle Atlantic States,
especially from Delaware north. The concern was sharpened by the realizationthat, despite
new and improved fishing craft andgear, landings continued to decline. Some industry mem-
bers felt that the menhaden might be overfished.

Sardines, Pacific coast. Sardines again failed to appear off the California coast, and only
7 million pounds were caught. Less than half was taken during the fall season, when the
catch frequently exceeded more than 1 billion pounds from 1934 through 1944. The 1963 catch
was only one-half of 1 percent of the record 1.5 billion pounds taken in 1936. At one time,
California sardines were landed in greater quantity than any other species in the United States.
Because ofthe limited quantity taken in 1963, nearly all the fish were canned in the 1-pound
oval cans in tomato sauce.

Salmon. During 1963, the salmon catch in the Pacific Coast States was 204,177,000 pounds
worth $49,011,000. This was 26 percent of the volume and 39 percent of the value of the
Pacific Coast catchof all fish and shellfish in 1963. Pink salmon were the most important,
with acatch of 156,603,000 pounds or 53 percent of the total 1963 salmon production. Among
the highlights of the 1963 season were the large run of pinks in southeastern Alaska and the
disappointing catch ofred salmon in Bristol Bay, where forecasters had expected a somewhat
larger run of fish.

GENERAL REVIEW

As aresult of a larger than expected run of sockeye salmon on the Fraser River and a
price dispute between Canadian fishermen and buyers during the peak of the July sockeye run,
American fishermen were given additional fishing time to prevent overseeding of the spawning
grounds. United States fishermen caught over 1.3 million sockeyes in convention waters,
compared with over 600 ,000 by Canadian fishermen. The United States catch would have been
larger if American fishermen were not restricted to waters south of the international boundary;
this restriction permitted a considerable part of the run to escape through Canadian waters
during the tie-up of the Canadian fleet.

Because ofa heavy runof pinks again in 1963 anda carryover ofthese fish from the pre-
vious year, the industry experienced difficulty in marketing the pack. Reds or sockeyes,
however, were in short supply and consequently, readily marketed. Prices quoted for some
of the canned pink and chum salmon appeared to be near or below the cost of packing these
fish, and was expected to affect developments in the salmon fishery.

Ahighlight ofthe 1963 salmon fishery of the Pacific coast was the pink salmon fish-
ery in the State of Washington. In Puget Sound, pink salmon appear only in odd-numbered
years. During 1963, the troll fleet made a record catch of this species. Some observers
felt that recently developed baits and lures were responsible for the increased pink catch by
trolling. In an ordinary pink salmon year, it can be assumed that the greatest share of pink
salmon receipts in Seattle will be canned, but because of the heavy increases in troll receipts
during 1963, much of the catch was sold fresh. Daily receipts of pink salmon from the troll
fleet, while steady, did not provide the volume necessary for profitable cannery operations.
Fresh pink salmon were featured in many of the chain stores on the Pacific coast and inland
as far east as Denver and Omaha. It was not until large quantities of the Fraser River pink
salmon were available that canneries were ableto operate at capacity on seine caught as well
as troller caught fish.

While the catch ofred orsockeye salmon was down sharply in Alaska, where most of
the catch of this species is taken, production on Puget Sound, based largely on the run of
these fish to the Fraser River in British Columbia, was up over 50 percent. Because of a price
disagreement, Canadian fishermen stopped fishing during 3 weeks when the sockeye run was at
its height; so, forthe first time inthe memory of most fishermen, only United States nationals
fished the Fraser Riverrun at its peak. The Fraser River sockeye salmon fishery is under the
control and supervision of the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission, with head-
quarters at New Westminster, British Columbia. One of the functions of the commission is
equal division of the catch of sockeye and pink salmon between United States and Canadian
fishermen. It is difficult to determine the degree to which the inactivity of the Canadian
fishermen helpedthe United States fleet. Confined to one side of the international boundary,
the United States had no access to salmon in Canadian waters, and the chief advantage they
received was additional fishing time to prevent overspawning of the fishing grounds.

Tuna. Landings of tuna in 1963, excluding deliveries by U.S. craft to Puerto Rico, were
321,619,000 pounds worth $40,170,000. This was an increase of 3 percent in volume, but
a decline of 11 percent in value. The value declined despite an increase of 14.8 million
pounds inthe Pacific Coast States' catchofthe more expensive albacore. This species repre-
sented the most successful segment of the tuna fishery in 1963.

Tuna accounted for 27 percent of the volume and 30 percent of the value of all Pacific
Coast fisheries in 1963. Landings of albacore and skipjack increased, but the catch of blue-
finand yellowfin declined compared with 1962. The albacore fishery in California and Oregon
was very good--the catch for the two States totaled 60.3 million pounds, 32 percent more
than in the previous year.

GENERAL REVIEW

The conversion from the pole and line method to purse seining for skipjack and yellow-
fin was completed in 1963. The principal additions to the fleet during the year were new
vessels or vessels converted from military craft.

There were important developments in the corporate structure of some of the tuna
canneries during 1963. Early inthe year, the H.J. Heinz Companyof Pittsburgh, Pa., packers
of food products, acquired Star Kist Foods, Inc. In February, the Van Camp Seafood Company
merged with the Ralston-Purina Company, packers of cereal food products and animal food.
During the middle of the year, the C.H.B. Foods of Pico Rivera, Calif. , acquired the Franco-
Italian Packing Company of Terminal Island. These mergers follow a general trend in the U.S.
food processing industry to integrate all types of food processing.

Crabs. The 1963 catch of 252.3 million pounds of crabs worth $21.4 million was up 8 percent
in volume and 14 percent in value. Chiefly responsible for the increase was the expanding
king crab fishery in Alaska, where landings of 78.7 million pounds, were 26 million pounds
above the previous year. The Dungeness crab catch of 24.9 million pounds was 6 percent
more than in 1962. Most of the increase was in Alaska, where because of a crab scarcity on
the Washington, Oregon, and California coasts, this latent fishery expanded considerably.
The catchofblue crabs was 145.3 million pounds, adecline of 10 million pounds, principally
because crabs were scarce and reduced effort resulting from the more plentiful supply of
shrimp. Fishermen found their efforts more rewarding in the shrimp fishery.

Shrimp. The 1963 catchof 240.5 million pounds of shrimp, worth $70 million to the fishermen,
was a 26-percent increase in volume but a 4-percent decline in value. An unusually good
catch of both brown and white shrimp in the Gulf of Mexico so depressed prices that the total
value declined, despite the larger catches. In contrast to the good catches in the Gulf of
Mexico, shrimp were very scarce inthe South Atlantic where catches of pink and white shrimp
in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia were down sharply. Because of the serious
shortage of shrimp in the South Atlantic, many of the vessels migrated to the Gulf
Many shrimp taken in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, andto a lesser extent in eastern
Texas waters, were small, which reduced the average value considerably. The volume of
landings in Louisiana was so great, at times, that processing plants were unable to handle
them, which resulted in some individual boat owners peddling their catches to retailers and
consumers.

The shrimp industry expanded into the grounds off South America. The fishery re-
sources off the South American countries had been known since the Bureau did exploratory
work there in 1941 and 1942, but the fishing industry had not taken full advantage of this
knowledge.

Oysters. The production of 58.4 million pounds of oyster meats, valued at $27.1 million,
was a 4-percent increase in volume but a 7-percent decline in value. The volume and value
increased in the New England, South Atlantic, and Gulf, but declined in the Middle Atlantic,
Chesapeake, and Pacific Coast States. The Gulf States had a phenomenal increase, and
production of oyster meats there increased from 18.8 million pounds in 1962 to 24.1 million
pounds in 1963. Chiefly responsible was the larger volume of oysters taken for canning; the
Gulf pack was over 60 percent more than in 1962. In addition, large quantities of fresh
oysters were produced for the eastern and northern trade because the Middle Atlantic and
Chesapeake Bay States were unable tosupplytheir usual markets. Mortalities on the oyster
reefs in the Chesapeake and Middle Atlantic States were chiefly responsible for the declines
inthe production in these areas. Some shucking plants in the Chesapeake and Middle Atlan-
tic States continued to handle oysters trucked in from the Gulf States. The average price per
gallon of shucked oysters declined slightly, as didthe total quantity produced. The production
of breaded oysters increased and the average price per pound for this item also advanced.

GENERAL REVIEW

Scallops. Landings of 21.5 million pounds of scallop meats in 1963 were down 23 percent in
volume, while the value ofthe catch--$10.3 million--was down 15 percent. The total supply
of scallops in 1963 (domestic catch plus imports) was down 11 percent or 4.5 million pounds
from the 1962 record supply of 39.4 million pounds. The Canadian fleet continued to grow,
and most ofthe newunits fished Georges Bank--the same grounds fished by the United States
fleet. Competition for the available scallops on Georges Bank became more keen.

Total Supply. In 1963, the total supply of fishery products (domestic catch plus imports) on a
round weight basis was a record 11,459,000 pounds and, for the first time, more than half
the supply (57.7 percent) came fromimports. The decline in the U.S. production of fish meal
and increased imports of this product, principally from Peru, were responsible for imports
exceeding domestic production. U.S. production accounted for 52.9 percent of the supply of
edible products, but only 34.5 percent of the supply of industrial products.

Processed Fishery Products. The total value of processed fishery products in 1963 was $914.5
million--down $44.3 million (5 percent) from the previous year, but 6 percent above the 5-
year average (1959-63).

Frozenraw, peeled and deveined shrimp, which have been becoming increasingly popu-
lar for the past few years, were again produced in greater quantity. While the volume in-
creased 4 million pounds and $3.7 million, the average price per pound declined from $1.22
in 1962to$1.16in1963. Breaded shrimp--another popular shrimp product--was down 1 per-
cent involume and 14 percent invalue compared with the previous year. Declining ex-vessel
prices for shrimp were also reflected in the lower average price of the breaded product in 1963.

The greatest decline was in the canned items--down $35.3 million (8 percent) --prin-
cipally in canned salmon (down $18.7 million) and tuna (down $8.2 million), pet food (down
$6.8 million), and Maine sardines (down $6.8 million). There were gains in canned shrimp,
oysters, and crab meat.

The production of fresh and frozen packaged fillets and steaks totaled 166 million
pounds valued at $57.5 million--a 3-percent decline in both volume and value compared
with 1962. The decline in volume was chiefly the result of decreased production of haddock
and Atlantic ocean perch fillets (each down 5 million pounds) and halibut, down 1 million
pounds. The production of flounder fillets was up 8 million pounds and $2.3 million, pri-
marily because of higher yellowtail landings at New Bedford, Mass.

Whales. During 1963, three whaling companies operated on the Pacific Coast, the same
number as in the previous year. These firms caught 259 whales--11 more than in 1962.
More sperm, humpback, and sei whales were taken during 1963, while the number of fin
whales, considered by the industry to be more valuable because of the greater meat yield,
declined sharply in 1963. The change in the composition of the catch resulted in a 21-per-
cent decrease in the volume of processed products and a 23-percent decline in the value.

Fishery Imports. In 1963, over 100 countries (or areas) on 6 continents exported fishery
products worth $490.7 million to the United States. Imports from North America accounted
for 41 percent of the value, followed by Asia (24 percent), South America (14 percent), and
Europe (13 percent). Canada led other countries in the value of fishery products sent to the
United States, accounting for 24 percent of the total value. Japan was in second place with
19 percent, followed by Mexico with 12 percent.

A total of 91 countries (or areas) on 6 continents sent 1.2 billion pounds (product
weight) of edible fishery products to the United States in 1963. Only 7 items--fresh and
frozen tuna, canned tuna in brine, canned sardines, fillets and steaks, shrimp, lobster, and

GENERAL REVIEW

pickled or salted fish--accounted for 79 percent of the total. Shipments from countries in
North America made up 48 percent of the total, followed by Asia (22 percent), Europe (15
percent) , South America (8 percent), Africa (5 percent), and Australia and Oceania (2 percent).
Canada led other countries inthe volume of edible fishery products sent to the United States
in 1963, accounting for 35 percent of the total. Japan was in second place with 19 percent,
followed by Mexico, 9 percent, and Iceland and Peru with 5 percent each.

According to domestic catch and import statistics the production segment of the U.S.
fishing industry has failedto holdits share ofthe market. While U.S. landings by the domes-
tic fleet have stabilized, imports have continued to rise and in 1963 constituted 58 percent
ofthe totalU.S. supply. Ifthis trend continues, only a small portion of the total supply will
come from the U.S. fleet within the next decade. The tendency in recent years has been to
use more of the domestic catch of fish for industrial purposes and less for human food.

In 1963, the world catch of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, etc., was a record 102.3
billion pounds--2.4 billion pounds more than in 1962. Peru again made the most spectacular
gain and forthe second year was first among the nations of the world in volume of production
of fishery products. The United States continued in fifth place.

Detailed summaries of the catch and operating unit data for the United States have
been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3727.

Summaries of operating unit and catch statistics for each region of the United States
have been published in the Current Fishery Statistics series of bulletins. "Fisheries of the
United States," a preliminary review available each April, contains current information on
many aspects of the fisheries, such as domestic and world catch, per capita consumption,
price indexes, foreign trade, supplies, etc.; and comparative data for previous years. This
publication may be obtained free from the Office of Information, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Ser-
vice, Washington, D.C. 20240.

The current statistical publications of the Bureau that contain data on the domestic
fisheries are listed in Fishery Leaflet 432 "Fishery Statistical Publications of the Bureau
of Commercial Fisheries." The publication also lists other Federal agencies, interstate
commissions, and international and nongovernmental sources of fishery statistics. Copies
of this leaflet may be obtained from the Office of Information.

GENERAL REVIEW

U. S. CATCH - LIVE WEIGHT BASIS

In the annual digest it has been the practice of the Bureau to show the catch of univalve
and bivalve mollusks on the basis of the weight of meats. Insofar as possible, allother fish
and shellfish items are shown on a live weight basis.

Since world fishery statistics published by the Food andAgriculture Organization of the
United Nations represent the live weight of the catch for allitems of fish and shellfish, ithas
been necessary to provide that organization with information on the domestic catch of all
species on a live weight basis. Data released by the Food and Agriculture Organization,
therefore, indicate that the 1963 U.S. catch was 1.3 billion pounds greater than the figure
appearing in Bureau publications. The increase is due to the inclusion of the weight of the
shells of univalve and bivalve mollusks in the Food and Agriculture Organization data.

It has been deemed desirable to include in this report a table showing the entire
domestic catch on a live weight basis. Information is also published on the catch of fishery
products inthe principal countries of the world so that the relative importance of the domestic
fisheries can be determined. Tables containing these data follow:

32 GENERAL REVIEW

WORLD CATCH OF FISH, CRUSTACEANS, MOLLUSKS, ETC.,
BY COUNTRIES

The 1963 world commercial landings of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, etc., totaled
102.3 billion pounds, according to the "Yearbook of Fishery Statistics, 1963" released by the
Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The landings were 2 percent more
than the 1962 production of 99.9 billion pounds and once again established a new record.

In 1962, Peru had replaced Japan as world leader in total fishery landings witha
spectacular increase in the catch of industrial fish (anchoveta) used primarily for fish meal.
Peru continued to lead in 1963 with 14.9 percent of the world catch, followed by Japan with
14.4 percent. The China, Mainland catch (1959 data) was third with 10.8 percent, the
U.S. S.R. was fourth (8.6 percent), and the United States, fifth (6.0 percent). These five
nations accounted for 55 percent of the 1963 world catch.

Asia accounted for 38 percent of the worldlandings, followed by Europe (19 percent);
South America (18 percent); NorthAmerica (10 percent); the U.S.S.R. (9 percent); and Africa
(6 percent). An insignificant percentage was taken in Oceania.

GENERAL REVIEW

CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS

The 1963 pack of canned fishery products by 377 plants in the United States, American
Samoa, and Puerto Rico amounted to 34.6 million standard cases (1.0 billion pounds) valued at
$421.6 million to the packers. Compared with the pack in 1962, production was down 2.3
million cases and $35.3 million. The decreases resulted mainly from a sharp decline in the

canning of fish for animal food and smaller packs ofAlaska salmon, California tuna, and Maine
and Pacific sardines.

The pack for human consumption (728.9 million pounds) was 28.4 million pounds less
than in 1962. The production of bait and animal food (307.0 million pounds) was down 69.4
million pounds in 1963. The value of three items--salmon, tuna, and animal food--accounted
for 78 percent of the total amount received by producers of canned fishery products in 1963.
Animal food containing less than 10 pounds of fish per standardcase of 48 pounds (4,143,405
standard cases valued at $16,732,929) has been excluded from this report.

Tuna. The 1963 pack of tuna (16.6 million cases or 326.7 million pounds valued at $201.6
million) was the second largest in volume and value being exceeded only by the record 1962
pack of 17.0 million cases (335.5 million pounds) valued at $209.8 million. The California
pack fell from 10.5 million cases in 1962 to 9.0 million cases in 1963. In all other areas,
production was slightly higher than in 1962.

The tuna industry had shown remarkable growth between the years 1953-1962. However,
there was a sharpcurtailment of demand for cannedtuna early in 1963 that wasreflected ina
cutback in tuna canning--the first material decrease in production in recent years. Had this
not occurred, production would have been the largest in history. It was not until the last half
of 1963 that the market situation was reversed and the pace of consumption recovered.

Salmon, The 1963 pack of salmon amounted to 3.3 million cases (158.2 million pounds) valued
at $88.0 million. Compared with 1962, this was a decrease of 506,000 cases and $18.7
million. Pink salmon accounted for 59 percent of the volume and 49 percent of the value of the
1963 pack.

Production in Washington was 323,000 cases larger thanin 1962 because of the excel-
lentrun of pink salmon to PugetSound. However, inAlaska the total pack was 819,000 cases
smallerthan in 1962. This was due to the sharplyreduced runs of red salmon in Western and
Central Alaska, pink salmon in Central Alaska, and chum salmon in all regions. The Colum-
bia River pack of 82,000 cases was one of the smallest in history.

Mackerel, The 1963 pack of mackerel (1.3 millioncases valued at $7.6 million) was 55,000
cases over the amount canned in 1962 and the third largest pack since 1952. Because ofa
limited market for canned mackerel, the 1963 catch was curtailed by canners imposing nightly
quotas on the vessels. Mackerel was available to the fleet until late in 1963. Fishermen
could have taken larger catches but canneries would not accept more than they could reasonably
expect to market,

Sardines. The 1963 pack of Pacific sardines (57,000 cases valued at $685,000) was the
smallest since the fishery was in its early stages of development. The fishery, once the
largest in the United States in volume of catch, just about reached the vanishing point in
1963. Sardines just failed to appear in the waters off California, and the catch amounted to
only 7.1 million pounds.

The 1963 pack of Maine sardines (sea herring) amounted to 1.6 million cases valued
at $13.2 million. Fish were plentiful throughout the season; however, stocks of canned
sardines became heavy, and canning was discontinued when the pack was 528,000 cases less
than the 2.1 million cases canned in 1962.

GENERAL REVIEW

Clams. The 1963 pack of clams and clam products amounted to 2.2 million cases valued at
$17.4 million. In 1962, the pack totaled 2.1 million cases valued at $17.1 million. Whole
and minced clams accounted for 25 percent of the pack; and chowders and juices, 75 percent.

Shrimp, The 1963 pack of shrimp amounted to a record 1.1 million cases valued at $19.5
million. Compared with 1962, production was up 20 percent in volume and 3 percent in value.
The increase occurred in the Gulf States with Louisiana showing the largest gain. On the
Pacific Coast, the pack was up a few thousand cases in Washington and Oregon but declined
by about 20,000 cases in Alaska.

Crabs, A record pack of 377,000 cases of crab meat valued at an alltime high of $10.3 million
was canned in 1963. Compared with 1962, this was an increase of 89,000 cases and $2.5
million. The pack of blue crab meat along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts was up 8,500 cases.
The combined packs of Dungeness and king crab meat in Washington and Oregon showed an
increase of 12,500 cases. However, the large increase was in Alaska where the pack of king
crab meat increased spectacularly from 187,000 cases in 1962 to 256,000 cases in 1963--a
gain of 37 percent,

Oysters. The 1963 oyster pack totaled 446,000 cases valued at $5.6 million compared with
322,000 cases valuedat $4.6 millionin 1962. Production of oyster specialties (smoked, stew,
bisque, and soup) amounted to 172,000 cases compared with 162,000 cases in 1962.

Animal food, The 1963 pack of animal food containing 10 pounds or more of raw fish per
standard case (48 one pound cans) amounted to 6.4 million cases valued at $39.0 million.
Compared with 1962, this wasadecline of 18 percent in volume and 15 percent in value. Not
included in this report is a canned pack containing less than 10 pounds of fish per case,
amounting to 4,1 million cases valued at $16.7 million.

GENERAL REVIEW

INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS

The production of industrial fishery products by 153 plants in the United States,
American Samoa, and Puerto Rico in 1963 was valued at $68.6 million. Compared with 1962,
this was a decrease of $7.1 million.

Marine animal scrap and meal, The 1963 production of 255,907 tons was 13 percentless than
the 312,259 tons manufactured in 1962 and the smallest production since 1958. Menhaden
scrap and meal (184,205 tons) was nearly 55,500tons less than in 1962. There was a short-
age of menhaden in 1963 and the catch was less than in 1962. However, imports of meal
(376,000 tons) were received in record volume and the supply (domestic production plus imports)
totaled 632,000 tons, the largest in history.

Marine animal oil. Domestic production of marine animal oil fell from 250 million pounds in
1962 to 186 million pounds in 1963. Despite the decline in the catch, the production of
menhaden oil (168 million pounds) accounted for 90 percent of the fish oil manufactured in
1963. Arecord 262 million pounds of fishoils were exported in 1963. Unlike 1962 when there
was difficulty in marketing fish oils, conditions changed in 1963. Demand for fish oils in-
creased and prices rose sharply.

Solubles and homogenized condensed fish, The 1963 production of solubles and homogenized
condensed fish amounted to 107,000 tons--14 percent less than in the previous year. The
production was far below the record 165,000 tons manufactured in 1959.

Other industrial products. Products from oyster shells and buttons from fresh-water and marine
mollusk shells were valued at $7.0 millionin 1963. Compared with the previous year, this was
a decrease of $1.5 million.

Other industrial products manufactured in 1963 included agar-agar, fish feed pellets
and animal feeds, glue, Irishmoss extract, kelp products, liquid fertilizer, pearlessence, and

crab shells valued at $13.8 million. In the previous year, other industrial products were
valued at $13.9 million.

GENERAL REVIEW

PACKAGED FISHERY PRODUCTS

The production of fresh and frozen packaged fish fillets and steaks inthe United States,
excluding Alaska and Hawaii, during 1963 totaled 166.0 million pounds valued at $57.5 million
to the processors. Compared with the previous year, this was adecrease of 5.5 million pounds
and $1.8 million.

Flounder fillets (45 .9 million pounds), haddock fillets (36.7 million pounds) and Atlan-
tic ocean perch fillets (30.2 million pounds) continued to be the leading items and accounted
for 68 percent of the total volume and 66 percent of the total value. Halibut and cod fillets
and steaks were among other important leading items. The New England area continued to
lead all other areas in the production of packaged fish with more than 67 percent of the total
volume and 61 percent of the value.

Preliminary data on the production of packaged fish during 1963 have been published
in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3455.

GENERAL REVIEW

FROZEN FISHERY TRADE

The 1963 production of frozen fish and shellfish by firms reporting monthly to the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries totaled 351.5 million pounds. Leading products frozen were shrimp (112.5
million pounds); bait andanimal food (60.0 million pounds); blocks, fillets, and steaks consist-
ing largely of ocean perch and haddock (59.7 million pounds); halibut (32.8 million pounds);
and whiting, headed and gutted (21.5 million pounds). An estimated 569.4 million pounds of
fish and shellfish (live weight) were required to produce the 351.5 million pounds of frozen
fishery items

The New England arealed all other areas in freezings with 131.3 million pounds or 37 per-
cent of the total, followed by the South Central area with 76.8 million pounds; South Atlantic
area with 44,6 million pounds; Pacific area, 43.7 million pounds; and Alaska with 43.7 million
pounds, The Middle Atlantic, North Central East, and North Central West accounted for the
remainder.

Data on the freezings and holdings of fishery products for 1963, by firms supplying monthly
data on their operations, and a list of cold storage warehouses freezing and storing fishery
products were published previously in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3451. Data on freezings
and holdings were also published in the preliminary monthly bulletin, Frozen Fish Report, and
in the final monthly report, Frozen Fishery Products, which are also in the Current Fishery
Statistics series.

In addition to the production of frozen fisheryitems by cold storage plants reporting to the
Bureau, a considerable volume of frozen fillets and steaks is producedby firms operating plate
freezers at the end of fillet production lines and by freezers not reporting to the Bureau. Data
assembled in the packaged fish survey for 1963 indicates that about 23 million pounds of fil-
lets and steaks were frozen by these firms. An estimated 66.5 million pounds of fish (live
weight) were required to produce these items.

FOREIGN FISHERY TRADE

U.S. foreigntrade in fishery products was valued at a record $547 millionin 1963--an increase
of $27 million compared with 1962. Imports for consumption amounted to $491 million and exports
more than $56 million. The valueof imports was nearly $6 million morethan in 1962, while exports
increased $21 million.

Imports of edible fishery products in 1963 totaled 1.2 billion pounds valued at $395 million.
Compared with 1962, this was a decrease of 5 percent in volume and 2 percent in value. The loss
in volume was due chiefly to decreases in the imports of fresh and frozen tuna, sea herring, and
canned sardines. Total volumeof imports of edible products would have been lowerhad not imports
of groundfish fillets and blocks, shrimp, and sea scallop meats remained at record levels. Other
important edible items received in considerable volume in 1963 were fresh and frozen halibut; tuna
loins anddiscs; fillets (other than groundfish) ; lobsters (common and spiny); canned tuna in brine;
and pickled or salted cod, haddock, hake, pollock, and cusk.

Shrimp was the major itemimported with respect tcvalue. Nearly 151 million pounds (including
fresh and frozen, canned, and cured) valued at $103 million were received from over 50 countries.
Shrimp accounted for 26 percent of the value of all imported-edible items in 1963. Mexico, Panama,
and India were among the principal sources. Mexican shrimp accounted for 50 percent of the total
imports of shrimp in 1963.

Imports of nonedible fishery products were valued at $96 million in 1963--15 percent more than
in 1962. Increasedreceipts of fish mealandscrap (376,000 tons--$37 million) largely accounted
for the gain invalue. Fishmealaccounted for nearly 39 percent of the value of all imported nonedible
fishery products in 1963. Other important items were cultured and natural pearls ($18 million) and
fish and marine animal oils ($8 million).

Exports of domestic edible fishery products totaled 64.7 million pounds valued at $30.4 million--
an increase of 15 percent in quantity and 35 percent in value compared with the previous year. The
gain was due to exporting greater quantities of fresh and frozen salmon and shrimp. Exports of
nonedible domestic fishery products valuedat $26.2 million were nearly double the value of the 1962
exports ($13.3 million). The increase was dueto the record exports of 262.3 million pounds of fish
oils. Nearly 76 percent of 1963 exports of oils were sent to Sweden, United Kingdom, and West
Germany. Exports of foreign produced fishery products during 1963 amounted to $8.5 million compared
with $4.4 million in 1962.

GENERAL REVIEW

Explanation of Changes In Reporting Statistics on

U.S. Foreign Trade in Fishery Products

Statistics on foreign fisherytrade are obtained from compilations made by
the Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce. Statistics onall known
imported or exported fishery products have been assembled and published
annually since 1926 in statistical digests published by the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries and its predecessor organizations.

Until September 1963, data were compiled from Bureau of the Census records
utilizing "Schedule A. Statistical Classification of Commodities Imported
into the United States." However, since August 31, 1963, U.S. importers
have beenrequired to report shipments in terms of "Tariff Schedules of the
United States Annotated." Commencing with September 1963, "Schedule A.
Statistical Classificationof Commodities Imported intothe United States"
were replaced by commodity classifications (for statistical reporting and
publication purposes) in the "Tariff Schedules ofthe United States Annotated"
(TSUSA) .

The principal effect of this change in reporting has been an unavoidable
break in the historical and current series of statistics on the imports of
fishery commodities. In some instances there were direct correlations
between the Schedule A. commodity numbers and TSUSA item numbers;
however, there were no apparent correlations for other commodity numbers.
A number of fishery items described in Schedule A. classifications lost
their identity when the TSUSA classifications became effective. Other
fishery items not listed in Schedule A. classifications are described in
the new TSUSA classifications.

This publication has been reorganized in an effort to retain continuity in

the Bureau's reporting of historical and current statistics of foreign trade
in fishery products.

~ SECTION 2 - NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

The commercial fisheries of the NewEngland States, (Maine, New Hampshire, Massa-
chusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut) in 1963 yielded 829 million pounds of fish and shell-
fish worth $68.3 million to the fishermen. This harvestrepresented a decline from 1962 of 43
million pounds (5 percent), but an increase of $2.5 million (4 percent), The 294.7-million
pound catch of groundfish (cod, cusk, haddock, ocean perch, pollock, and white hake) was
10 percent under 1962. Also well below 1962 catches were menhaden, whiting, and sea
scallops. Yellowtail flounders showed the largest increase-—up 38 percent to 78 million
pounds. Average prices for most foodfishes were higherthan a year earlier and shellfish prices
were much improved.

Landings in the NewEngland States, with the exception of New Hampshire, were down
from 1962, Massachusetts led in catch with 56 percent; followed by Maine with 34 percent;
Rhode Island, 8 percent; and Connecticut and New Hampshire, 1 percent each. The percentage
breakdown by value was Massachusetts, 60; Maine, 31; Rhode Island, 6; Connecticut, 2; and
New Hampshire, 1 percent.

Fishermen and vessels, In 1963, NewEngland had 21,428 fishermen using 733 vessels of 5
net tons orgreater and 10,746 othercraft. This was a gain of 6vessels, buta decrease of 108
fishermen and 367 other craft compared with 1962.

Vessel construction. Four vessels built under the Fishing Vessel Construction Differen-
tial Subsidy Program joined the fleet in 1963, making a total of six built under this law.
Public Law 86-516, which expired in June 1963, was passed to provide financial assistance
to correct inequities between foreign and domesticcosts of construction of fishing vessels.
The New England groundfish industry was the only fishery to meet all the eligibility require-
ments of the program. In addition to the six vessels completed under the program, five more
applications were pending and may possibly be completed later. In 1963, bills were introduced
in both houses of Congress to replace the program and in October, the Senate passed S. 1006
which would provide a $10-million annual appropriation for a 5-year period. This bill, if
approved, would allow a subsidy of up to 50 percent of the cost of construction rather than
the 33 percent under the expiredlaw. Eligibility to apply for subsidies would also be liberal-
ized.

The first U.S. stern trawler, Narragansett, which joined the fleetearly in 1963, proved
asuccess. In the first year of operation, this vessel engaged in deep-sea lobstering, flounder
and groundfish trawling, andlonglining. The Rhode Island shipyard that built the Narragansett
had orders for at least three additional stern trawlers to be constructed in 1964.

The U.S.-built former French trawler St, Patrick joined the Boston fleet in December.
Built in 1948, the St. Patrick was purchased by Bostoninterests in 1963 and returned to this
country. The 153-foot-long, 483-gross-ton vessel is the largest trawler ever to fish out of
Boston. This vessel and the Sturgeon Bay, sister ship of the Massachusetts, both built under
the Fishing Vessel Subsidy Program, were welcome additions to the declining Boston fleet.

During 1963 the NewEngland fleetlost 11 vessels at sea--8 from the port of Glouces-—
ter. Three fishermen were lost, andthe toll mighthave been heavier had it not been for modern
lifesaving equipment. The Gloucester trawler St. Nicholas, on fire at sea, was lost despite
assistance from a Russianvessel. Eightnew vesselgentered the industry--four of which will
fish out of New Bedford,

Processing, The 1963 value of manufactured fishery products produced in the New England
States was $121.7 million--a decrease of $11,2 million (8 percent) compared with 1962. The
value of the Maine manufactured products declined $11.7 million, while there were smaller
decreases in New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Massachusetts, with a gain
of $869,000, was the only State showing an improved value over the previous year. A reduc-

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

tion of $6.8 million inthe value of the pack of canned Maine sardines was largely responsible
for the lower value of the New England manufactured fishery products in 1963.

Weather. A severe storm the last of November caused serious losses to fishermen and water-
front property, particularly innorthern NewEngland. Damage to property, boats, vessels, and
lobster pots was estimated at over $1 million in Maine alone. The Boothbay Harbor, Maine,
area suffered most severely. At Gloucester, a large section of the breakwater was breached
and waterfront property was destroyed. Fortunately, no lives or vessels were lost at sea.
The November storm climaxed a year of unusually high winds and poor fishing weather.

Labor, The fishing industry had another year of labor-management tranquility with no major
work stoppage or tleups among the fishing fleet. New agreements were signed between fish
processors and employee unions at Rockland, Gloucester, and Boston, Wage increases, in
general, were moderate, ranging between 5 and 15 cents plus fringe benefits, The agreement
reached in Boston was for a 3-year period and will not expire until May 1966.

Legislation, Effective October 1963, all groundfish landedin Massachusetts, with the excep-
tion of ocean perch, must be gutted at sea. The newregulation is containedin an amendment
to Section 14 of the Rules and Regulations promulgated by the Massachusetts Director of the
Division of Marine Fisheries. The amendment was designed, primarily, to prevent the landing
of ungutted pollock and small haddock.

Lobsters., This mostvaluable of all fishand shellfishtaken by NewEngland fishermen was in
increased demandin 1963. Although the catch of 29 million pounds was up only 3 percent from
1962, the value to the fishermen of $16.2 million was 13 percent above the previous year. The
catch of so-calleddeep sealobsters by ottertrawlers was 2.0 million pounds and was landed
at several ports in Massachusetts, RhodeIsland, and Connecticut. This fishery continues to
attract additional vessels each year and is carried on from Hudson Canyon to the Southeast
part of Georges Bank in waters ranging from 100 to 250 fathoms deep. With the increased
otter trawl lobster catch have come more frequent calls for a complete investigation into the
possible harmful effects this type of fishery might have upon the future of the lobster fishery.
Conflicts have also arisen over the increased activities of skin divers--primarily sportsfisher-
men. Skindiving for lobsters is illegal in Maine andNew Hampshire but allowed in the other
three Coastal New England States.

Groundfish, Landings of groundfish declined to 295 million pounds--31 million pounds below
the 1962 catch. However the value of the catch ($21 million) was slightly higher than in 1962,
as the fresh-fish market continued to improve. Landings of cod, haddock, ocean perch, and
pollock were below the previous year, while cusk and white hake showed smallincreases. The
available U.S. supply of groundfish fillets in 1963 (catch plus imports) set a newhighof just
over 315 millionpounds. Imports of groundfish fillets were 232 million pounds, a record 73.5
percent of total supply. Included inthe imports of groundfish fillets were 153 million pounds
in the form of blocks or slabs used primarily by the expanding fish stick and portionindustry--
a 7-percent increase over 1962 imports.

Whiting, The 1963 catch of whiting was 87 million pounds, 11 percent below the 1962 catch
and the lowest since 1953. Massachusetts led involume with 67 million pounds, followed by
Maine with 16 million. The Maine catch dropped 11 percent despite legislation that limited
the operations of Massachusetts vessels in Maine waters. Once again Gloucester vessel
Owners and fishermen attempted to form organizations that would work for higher prices and
improved fish handlingmethods. They were unsuccessful, however, and the whiting industry
made no significant changes in its catching, handling, or processing practices. Despite the
catch decréase,the supply of frozen whiting appeared adequate, with the consumer market
showing some signs of decline. The activities of a large fleet of Russiantrawlers was con-
sidered by many fishermen and processors to be the dominant factor in the drop in catch. The

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

Bureau's Technological Laboratory in Gloucester completed initial tests on the value of refrig-
erated sea water for holding whiting. The possibility of improving the quality of whiting by
better handling practices both afloat and on shore was carefully observed by the industry.

Herring. The 1963 catchof 152.3 million pounds of Maine sea herring was 3 percent less than
in 1962. Of this amount, 6.3 million pounds were exported to Canada compared with 5.6
million the previous year. The sardine pack of 1.6 million standard cases was 25 percent
below the 1962 production. A greater proportion of the sea herring catch was used for bait
and reduction than in 1962. Imports of sea herring from Canada were 45.5 million pounds
compared with 62.1 million the previous year. Only 27 canneries packed sardines in 1963--a
reduction of 5 plants from the previous year. Imports of canned sardines in 1963 totaled 41.5
million pounds, 22 percent less than in 1962.

Ocean Perch, Only 108 million pounds of ocean perch were landed at New England ports in
1963--the lowest catch since 1940. Maine landings of 64 million pounds were down 8 per-
cent from 1962, but the most severe drop occurred in Massachusetts, where the catch was
only 44 million pounds, 19 percent less than the previous year, Although there was some
improvement in ex-vessel prices, the fleet continued todecline in the face of ever diminish-
ingreturns. One new, large wooden trawler was added to the fishery in Maine, while several
older large and medium vessels were removed from the fleet by sinking or transfers to more
profitable fisheries. Imports of ocean perch fillets in 1963 were 21.6 million pounds, 11
percent more than in 1962,

Sea Scallops. The 18-million pound landings of seascallops, valued at $8.3 million, repre-
sented a decline for the secondyear. The catch was 18 percentless in poundage and 7 per-
cent less in valuethanthe 1962 catch. Landings of 16 million pounds enabled New Bedford to
continue to be the leading sea scallop port. Imports of sea scallops, almost entirely from
Canada, increased to over 13 million pounds or 15 percent more than the previous year, This
was the eighth year of increase. The scallop fleet declined in 1963 as several of the older
and marginally profitable vessels were converted to otter trawling or longlining. Some evi-
dence indicated that scallop abundance was decreasing on Georges Bank, as the grounds come
under ever increasing fishing pressure from Canadian and United States fishermen,

Yellowtail Flounders, The yellowtail flounder continued its phenomenal comeback to the ranks
of major species with total landings of 78 million pounds valued at $5 million--up 38 percent
in poundage and 21 percent in value from 1962, Massachusetts contributed 69 million pounds
which were, for the most part, landed and processed in New Bedford, Rhode Island hada
total of 9 million pounds, and only insignificant catches were reported from Connecticut. The
large quantity of yellowtail flounders encouraged several plants to expand their filleting and
packing facilities in New Bedford and although glut periods occasionally occurred, most of
the catch was landed and processed in an orderly and stable manner.

Tuna, The tuna seining fleet operating off the Eastern Coast increased to 16 U.S. vessels,
which landed 8.3 million pounds of bluefinand skipjack tuna at NewEngland ports. Additional
quantities were taken directly to Puerto Rico, In 1962 the fleet had only 7 vessels, which
landed 6.7 million pounds. Only one plant processed tuna in New England in 1963. New
plants were considered but not built by West Coastinterests. Most of the New England land-
ings were shipped frozen to canneries in Maryland, Puerto Rico, and California. Some fish
were also shipped to Italy. NewBedfordwas the leading tuna port, with 3.3 million pounds,
Low prices, poor weather conditions, and the comparatively short season tempered the success
of the 1963 operation, Additionallocal canning facilities would greatly improve the outlook
for this fishery.

Swordfish, The longline method of fishing for swordfish, which began in 1962, continued to
grow in 1963, New England landings of swordfish caught by this gear in 1963 were over 1.9

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

million pounds. In addition, longlines also caught some tunaand shark, A Maine vessel was
the most successful for the year, with one trip taking 514 fish (54,000 pounds), and another
trip taking 412 fish (81,000 pounds). Both trips established records at NewEngland ports--
the first trip by capturing arecord number of fish; the second trip by landing arecord poundage.
The high percentage of "pups" or fish weighing well under 100 pounds has caused concern
because of the lower price of steaks cut from the smaller fish. The average price per pound
for dressed swordfish declined to 31 cents from 55 cents the previous year.

Menhaden, Lessthan 1 million pounds of menhaden were landed in the New England States,
‘compared with 24 million in 1962. Fish were caughtnorth of Cape Cod, as this species once
again failed to visit Massachusetts Bay and northward, RhodelIsland purse seiners did catch
additional menhaden, but the fish were either landed directly on LongIsland, N. Y., or taken
there by carrier boat.

Other Industrial Species, Landings of unclassified species for industrial purposes totaled 58
million pounds which was slightly under the 1962 catch. Rhode Island received 32 million
pounds landed at Point Judith, while Massachusetts landings were 24 million pounds, princi-
pally at New Bedford. In addition to these unclassified species, 11 million pounds of ale-
wives were taken by purse seines and landed at Gloucester. Despite somewhat improved in-
dustrial product prices, New England plants mostly experienced a poor year due to an insuf-
ficient supply of raw materials.

Bait Fishery. For the first time the combined catch of blood and sand worms brought over $1
million to Maine diggers. The value of the 1963 worm catch, $1.3 million, was 35 percent
above 1962 and the fourth most valuable in the Maine catch, The demand for marine worms
continues to grow at a rapid pace, and, providing their abundance can be maintained, the
catches should continue to increase markedly over the next few years.

Foreign fishing, Fishing off the New England coast by foreign vessels, primarily Russian,
intensified in 1963. The Russian fleet alone totaled almost 300 vessels. There were fewer
gill net vessels and more stern trawlers and side trawlers, thus leading to fewer complaints
from American vessels concerning nets in their propellers or being forced to detour miles
around the strings of gear. The Russians were fishing primarily for whiting and herring.
Demands from fishermen and other segments of the industry that the territorial waters be ex-
tended beyond the present 3 miles were voiced. Complaints of the Russian activity were
greatest during July and August, when the Russian fleet was concentrated on Georges Bank
and off Cape Cod.

Irradiation laboratory, Construction began in July on the new building to house the Gloucester
irradiation laboratory. Anappropriation of $650,000 was voted by Congress the previous year
for this facility, which will be operated jointly by the Atomic Energy Commission and the
Bureau of Commercial Fisheries. Work already underway on the radiation pastuerization of
seafood products shows great promise of improving the shelf life of fresh fishery products.
The new building is expected to be completed in autumn 1964,

Research vessel, The Albatross IV, the most modern and best equipped U.S. fishery research
vessel, began its first year of operation in 1963. The 187-foot long, 1,000-ton stern trawler
was officially commissioned on May 9 and sailed on its first scientific cruise on May 13. The
new vessel has a cruising range of 9,000 miles and is completely equipped with the latest
scientific facilities and electronic aids. Invitations to submit bids for the construction of a
replacement for the Bureau's aging exploratory fishing vessel, Delaware, were sent out in
1963. Plans call for the vessel to be built as a 155-foot stern trawler, and equipped with
the latest facilities for fishery research.

Shore and Plant Development. Construction got underway in New Bedford in 1963 ona 19-acre
Maritime Terminal site for the use of fishing and other waterfront businesses, The develop-
ment will feature a 1,500-foot long bulkhead for the mooring of vessels, and a cold storage
warehouse with a capacity of 20 to 30 million pounds. Work also began in New Bedford on
a hurricane dike which will cost over $16 million. In Gloucester, approval was received for
a $1.2-million dredging project which, it is hoped, will stimulate increased exports and im-
ports as well as benefit some of the larger domestic fishing vessels. This projectis embodied
in the Federal Urban Renewal program, under which a large section of the Gloucester water-
front will eventually be razed and rebuilt. Urban renewal projects both in Gloucester and
along the Atlantic Avenue section of Boston are expected to result in the relocation of many
fish processing plants.

Training Program, A fishermen's training program was inaugurated at Boston in 1963 with funds
provided by the Manpower Development and Training Act. The training course, conducted by
vessel owners andthe Atlantic Fishermen's Union, included 10 weeks at seaandan intensive
3-week course on shore. Out of the first class of 37 trainees, 13 completed the course. A
similar program is scheduled for Gloucester in 1964,

Other information, The following tables contain summarized and detailed information on the
1963 operating units and catch of fish and shellfish in the New England States. Condensed
summary data on the operating units and catch by States of the NewEngland area, appearing
on the following pages, have been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No, 3590.
Additional data on many aspects of the NewEngland fisheries may be found in Maine, Massa-
chusetts, and Rhode Island monthly and annual landing bulletins released by the Branch of
Fishery Statistics and in daily, monthly, and annual reports published by the Bureau's Fishery
Market News Office, Commonwealth Pier, Boston, Mass,

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

LANDINGS AT MAINE PORTS

In cooperation with the Maine Department of Sea and Shore Fisheries, the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries collects and compiles monthly and annual data on the landings of fish,
shellfish, and other aquatic resources in the State of Maine. This information is published
monthly in "Maine Landings," which is in the Current Fishery Statistics series of reports.
Additional detailed tabulations are prepared for the use of Bureau and State scientists and
the International Commission for the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries.

Maine landings data, summarized by species and months, appeared in Digests for
the years 1947-58. In 1959, data were shown on the catch off Canada by species and area
of capture. Information was also included on the number of fishing craft operated, trips,
days absent, and days fished. Since 1960, similar data have been shown for most of the
Maine catch, except sea herring, lobsters, sea scallops, and a small amount of other fish.
The quantities shown represent the round weight of species except univalve and bivalve
mollusks. These shellfish are reported in pounds of meats. The data are comparable with
catch figures shown in other tables.

During 1963, landings at Maine ports by fishing craft of all sizes were 286 million
pounds, a decline of 9 million pounds from 1962, The major decreases occurred in ocean
perch, down 5.5 million pounds; herring, down 4.4 million; and whiting, down 1.9 million
pounds. The only item to increase by more than 1 million pounds was Irish moss, up 1.1
million. Slight increases were made in lobster, tuna, and sea worms. The total value of
the landings increased by $851,000--primarily because of increased demand for lobsters,
which brought $1.4 million more than in the previous year.

LANDINGS AT MASSACHUSETTS PORTS

Detailed statistics on landings at Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, and other Massa-
chusetts ports are collected and published monthly and annually in the Current Fishery Sta-
tistics series of bulletins. Additional detailed tabulations are prepared for the use of Bureau
and State scientists and the International Commission for the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries.
The data usually represent about 98 percent of the total Massachusetts catch. The figures
do not include data on shellfish (except the landings of otter trawl caught lobsters, shrimp,
sea scallop meats, and squid). Additional landings, notincluded inthe data, consist mostly
of crabs, pot caught lobsters, clams, sea mussels, oysters, bay scallop meats, Irish moss,
and small amounts of other fish, shellfish, and other marine organisms.

The following tables present a summary of 1963 data on Massachusetts landings by
ports, gear, and area of capture. Since the quantities shown are the weights of the actual
landings, they are not directly comparable with the catch figures that appear in other tables
in this Digest.

Landings by fishing craft of all sizes at Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, and certain
other Massachusetts ports in 1963 were 432 million pounds valued at $37 million. Compared
with 1962 (453 million pounds worth $36 million), landings decreased 5 percent in volume
but increased 2 percent in value. Gloucester was the leading port with 32 percent of
the landings, followed closely by New Bedford with 31 percent; Boston, 25 percent; and other
Massachusetts Ports, 12 percent. The distribution of value was nearly identical with the
previous year: New Bedford, 46 percent; Boston, 29; Gloucester, 18; and other ports, 7
percent.

Boston landings of 107.2 million pounds were down 10.4 million pounds from 1962--the
lowest level in 41 years, Ex-vessel prices were generally higher and total value of the
landings increased $318,700 over 1962 to the highest level in 4 years. The 8-million-pound
decrease in haddock landings was the major factor in the decline in volume. Gloucester
vessels, which land much of their groundfish catch at Boston, accounted for 24 percent of
the landings at Boston.

Gloucester landings decreased sharply in volume, down 17 percent to the lowest level
in 23 years, but because of improved prices, the total value rose 3 percent to the highest
level since 1959, A major reason for the decline in volume was the complete absence of
menhaden, which provided landings of 16 million pounds in 1962. Ocean perch receipts
dropped 19 percent to 43.2 million pounds, the lowest since 1938. Whiting landings fell
nearly 4 million pounds to the lowest point in 7 years,

Once again, New Bedford had the best year in its history, with landings of 135 million
pounds (up 13 percent) worth $16.8 million (up 2 percent). Yellowtail flounder landings of
63.8 million pounds (up 37 percent) were responsible for the increase at this port and also
established a new record for this species. In 1963, yellowtail landings were second to
haddock in Massachusetts--quite a jump over the past few years, The major decline was in
sea scallops, which dropped 17 percent because of decreased abundance on Georges Bank.
The unit value increased as demand was strong. New Bedford remained the leading New Eng-
land tuna port (3.3 million pounds) and became the leading port for the new longline sword-
fish fishery (1.2 million pounds).

At Massachusetts ports, 711 fishing craft captured the 432 million pounds of fish and
shellfish landed in 1963, Of these, 402 craft with otter trawls caught 89 percent of the
landings, Purse seines and scallop dredges accounted for about 4 percent each, and the
remainder was taken on lines, inpoundand trap nets, by harpoons, or with gill nets. Fishing
grounds off the New England shore yielded 370 million pounds or 86 percent of the er -ire
landings. About 12 percent was taken from grounds off Nova Scotia, while the remainder
came from the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the Newfoundland Banks, and from areas off the Middle
Atlantic States. ‘

SURVEY PROCEDURE IN THE NEW ENGLAND STATES

Statistical programs in the New England States are under the general supervision of
the Bureau's regional office inGloucester, Mass., with direct supervision bya regional super-
visor for statistics also at Gloucester. The operation is carried on by field reporters at
Rockland, Boothbay Harbor, and Portland, Me.; Boston, Gloucester, Provincetown, and New
Bedford, Mass.; and Warren and Point Judith, R.I. They are specialists trained in obtaining
and reporting fishery statistical data on a daily, monthly, and annual basis. Information on
the volume and value of the catch by species, gear, and areaof capture is obtained from fish-
ermen and buyers of fish, shellfish, and other marine products. Special surveys are con-
ducted for statistics on employment of fishermen, shoreworkers, fishing craft and gear, and
the production of processed fishery products.

Catch. The fishery reporting specialists obtain daily individual trip data for all landings at
their respective ports. They also interview a high percentage of trips for information on
fishing effortand area of capture. These data are entered on punchcards for use in preparing
monthly and annual tabulations of catch by species, gear, area of capture, and county where
landed. Complete information on State landings is not always included because deliveries
may be made at ports not covered daily. Information on these landings is obtained annually.

Maine. Each month, all areas in Maine, except Portland and Rockland, are canvassed by a
Bureau representative and a State employee to obtain from each dealer and buyer a report on
the quantity of fish, shellfish, and worms, by species, purchased from fishermen. These
data are entered on punchcards at the same time as those for the major ports, thus providing
complete information on Maine landings for the month.

Current cumulative tabulations of the monthly landings by area are maintained, and
shortly after the end of each year, a revised tabulation is prepared listing by county and
month all species taken during the year. Any revisions in the monthly data are included,
and data on sea moss, which is shown only annually, are added.

Massachusetts. Daily information on Massachusetts landings is assembled for Boston,
Gloucester, New Bedford, Plymouth, and Cape Cod ports. Detailed statistics are obtained
on the volume and value of the catch for each vessel by species, gear used, and the subarea
in which the catch was made. Additional detailed information on the time spent in fishing,
depth fished, etc., is obtained for 12 study vessels.

Landings at the major portsin Massachusetts constitute about 98 percent of the total
annual catch for that State. Species not covered are most shellfish (other than sea scallops
and trawl caught lobsters) and some minor finfish species such as smelt, eels, and river-
run alewives. Information on the catch of lobsters is obtained from annual reports which
each fisherman is required to file with the State. Statistics on other shellfish and alewife
catches are secured from town shellfish wardens, Data onthe remaining species are collected
by annual personalinterviews with fishermen and dealers and are prorated tothe area of cap-
ture and gear used. The information is forwarded to the Washington office to be machine
processed with other figures for the State.

Rhode Island, Datato complete the monthly Rhode Island Landings bulletin are collected and
tabulated each month in the fishery statistical office at Warren. Detailed information is
assembled on daily landings at Point Judith and Newport. Cumulative tabulations are main-
tained on the monthly catch by county and by area, After the close of each year, a revised
tabulation is prepared and issued as an annual Rhode Island Landings bulletin.

Connecticut. Landings data for Connecticut are obtained by an annual questionnaire which
the State sends to each fisherman and by visits that the Bureau's employee stationed at
Warren, R.I., pays to fishermen and dealers, At Stonington, a part-time employee records

individual vessel landings (hails). Daily information is obtained by the New York Fishery
Market News office on shipments from Connecticut received on the market. These are tab-
ulated at the Gloucester office. At the end of the year, data from these various sources are
summarized by the Rhode Island field reporter, listed by county, prorated to area of capture
based on interviews with fishermen and dealers, and entered on schedules which are for-
warded to the Washington office for processing.

Summary. Atthe end of the year, all catch data are consolidated into summary tabulations for
each State, by species, by county and gear. After being reviewed by the field staff and the
Washington office, the tabulations are published.

Operating Units. Aset of prepunched Bureau of Customs vessel cards containing the name of
the vessel, the official number, the rig code, gross tons, length, and year built is furnished
field reporters each year. Reporters interview the captains of the vessels to obtain area
fished; number of crew; and number, type, and quantity of gear used in each fishery. The
Gloucester office adds to the vessel punchcards the data on the crew and gear. The number
of crew is the maximum number of crewmen aboard the vessel at any one time for each gear
operated. Number and quantity of gear reported for each vessel is the greatest quantity used
at one time. Gear ashore or carried aboard the vessel for replacement is not included.
Machine tabulations of vessel landings provide information on the vessels that fished at
major ports during the year. Throughout the year, fieldreporters prepare supplemental vessel
lists for areas other than major ports, which are combined into one list at the end of the year.
In detailed State operating unit tabulations, operating unit information on the number of men
and craftis shown for each gear. In the summary for the State, however, they are shown only
once.

Data on crew and gear are added to the vessel punchcards by the Gloucester office.
Data relating to the operation of craft of less than 5 net tons and fishermen operating with-
out boats are classified as the shore and boat fishery, and one or more cards are prepared
for the total number of boats, etc., using each type of gear in each county.

The vessel, boat, and shore cards are punched at the Gloucester statistical office,
processed by the Woods Hole tabulating unit, and returned to Gloucester, where operating
unit tables are prepared. These tables are reviewed and corrected by area supervisors, who
forward them tothe Washington office. Any discrepancies are reconciled by field and central
office personnel, and an annual summary entitled New England Fisheries is published.

Processed Fishery Products. Data on the production of processed fishery products are ob-
tained monthly, quarterly, or annually through the use of questionnaires and followup visits
where necessary. As the reports are received, they are checked for discrepancies and then
forwarded to the Washington office. Summaries of the annual data appear in the Canned,
Industrial, Manufactured, and Packaged Fishery Products bulletins.

Fish Sticks and Portions, and Breaded Shrimp. Dataonthe production of fish sticks and por-
tions and breaded shrimp summarized on a monthly basis are collected quarterly by field
reporters on forms (schedules) provided by the central office. The forms are mailed to pro-
ducers at the end of each quarter, and if the forms are not returned, the firms are contacted
by a field reporter. The information is published by the central office in a quarterly report
entitled, Fish Sticks, Fish Portions, and Breaded Shrimp. At the end of the year, the data
are summarized, figures are obtained on the value of the production, and an annual summary
is published.

Fish Meal, Oil, andSolubles. Data on the production of fish meal, oil, and solubles are collect-
ed monthly by field reporters, who, on the first of each month, mail the data forms to each of the

141

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

meal producing firms in the area. The forms request production figures on meal, oil, and
solubles; menhaden plants are also asked about the number of fish received. When com-
pleted forms are not returned, the field reporter obtains the data by telephone or in person,
After review by field personnel, the reports are forwarded to the Washington office, where
the data are tabulated and published monthly ina bulletin entitled Fish Meal and Oil, At the
end of the year, the data for each firm are returned to the field for review and revision, if
necessary, before being tabulated and published in the annual bulletins, Industrial Fishery
Products and Fish Meal and Oil.

Freezings and Cold Storage Holdings. Collection of data on the monthly freezings and
holdings of fishery products in New England is handled cooperatively by the Bureau and the
U.S. Department of Agriculture. Statistical and market news personnel in New England obtain
monthly freezings and storage figures from 34 firms in coastal areas. The Department of
Agriculture conducts a mail canvass of three firms.

The figures are machine tabulated by the central office of the Branch of Fishery Sta-
tistics. National data on freezings and holdings are published in preliminary cold storage
reports, which are released on the 15th of each month unless the date falls on a holiday or
weekend. Summaries are issued by the Bureau's Fishery Market News offices and the De-
partment of Agriculture. Final monthly reports are published by the Branch of Fishery Sta-
tistics, as well as an annual Frozen Fishery Products bulletin, which lists the firms that
furnished information on the fishery cold storage activities.

Market News Reporting. A great deal of current fishery data appears in the Fishery Products
Reports issued daily by the Bostonand New York Fishery Market News offices. These reports
show day-to-day fluctuations. Seasonal fluctuations can be determined by reviewing the
monthly landings bulletins. The most complete annual data appear in the Statistical Digest,
Fishery Statistics of the United States. Information on the catch by waters is not published
but is machine processed and tabulations are furnished State and Federal laboratories along
the New England coast.

SECTION 3 - MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES

The 1963 commercial landings of fish and shellfish in the coastal areas of the Middle
Atlantic States (New York, New Jersey, and Delaware) totaled 550 million pounds valued at
$21.3 million. Compared with 1962, this was a decline of 394 million pounds (42 percent)
and $3.9 million (15 percent). A drop in landings of menhaden accounted for the major portion
of the decline.

New Jersey was the leading producer of the Middle Atlantic States area with 46 per-
cent of the volume and 48 percent of the value; New York was next with 35 percent of the
volume and 46 percent of the value. Delaware landings, 99 percent of which was menhaden,
accounted for the remaining 19 percent of the volume and 6 percent of the value.

Fishermen and vessels. During 1963 the Middle Atlantic States had 8,553 commercial fisher-
men--299 more thanin 1962. The increase was entirely in casual fishermen who were attracted
toarelatively profitable hardclam fishery. Commercial fishing craft operated in these States
consisted of 599 vessels, 4,085 motor boats, and 288 other boats. This was an increase of
320 craft, all motor boats.

Processing. Manufactured fishery products were valued at $86.5 million--$9.3 million less
than in the previous year. New York accounted for 41 percent of the value; New Jersey, 36
percent; and Pennsylvania and Delaware, the remaining 23 percent.

Marketing. An important change in the Philadelphia and New York City markets was the trend
toward buying fish and shellfish direct from the producer rather than for the producer to ship
on a consignment basis.

Weather. Production was lowered by almost continuous unfavorable weather during January
and February. Offshore fisheries for scup, fluke, and sea scallops were adversely affected,
and small boats, operating longline gear, lost a great deal of fishing time. The very poor
crab season in New Jersey and Delaware was attributed to the extreme cold and freezeups of
local bays.

Legislation.
New York. Taking shellfish at night was made a misdemeanor, enforcement officers were

empowered to seize, without warrant, the tools used or possessed for taking shellfish from un-
certified areas or at night, and penalties for taking shellfish from uncertified areas atnight were
increased. The taking of bay scallops on Sunday with power-operated devices was prohibited,
and the present minimum size limit for scallops was continued. It was made clear in the
Town Law that towns may regulate the taking of clams, oysters, and shellfish (but not lob-
sters, crabs, or finfishes) in waters over lands to which title and right of fishing are vested
in the town. Provision was made that, until January 1, 1967, nonresidents may, under permit,
take lobsters in most of Block Island Sound. The use of purse seines for taking foodfish was
prohibited within 3 miles of the Atlantic Coast and in all other tidal waters of the State. The
use of beam trawls and otter trawls was prohibited within one-half mile of the coast from
Rockway Point to Fire Island Inlet Jetty and in all inshore tidal waters within these limits.
The 14-inch size limit for fluke that is now in effect with respect to commercial fishing was
extended to angling.

New Jersey--The cost of bay scallop permits for 1963 was increased from $2.50 to $25.00
for those fishing scallops on a commercial basis. A $2.50 permit can be had by anyone who
does not catch more than 4 bushels of scallops per day. Striped bass caught along the eastern
shore of New Jersey must be 18 inches or more in length; in Delaware Bay, 12 inches; and
in Delaware River, 10 inches.

va MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES

Surf clams. The surf clam industry, centered in New Jersey, continued to grow, and
production of 38.5 million pounds of meats surpassed the 1962 record catch by 7.8 million
pounds of meats. New York had a very small part inthis fishery. Most of the surf clam meats
processed in New York come from New Jersey producers. The best catch for a 1-month period
in New Jersey occurred in October when the 4.3 million pounds of meats taken set a monthly
record for this fishery. Five reasons for this amazing rise in production are: fine demand and
acceptance of the product by the consumer, creation of inventory by all firms who feel the
clam grounds are now beginning to show signs of depletion, a virgin surf clam area found
during the early part of the year, addition of six vessels, and favorable weather conditions
during periods of intensive fishing.

Crabs. The 1.4 million pounds ofhard blue crabs taken were 59 percent less than the previous
year. The crabs were small and poor in quality, with very few peelers. High mortality of
small crabs during the severe cold weather and ice conditions were considered the major causes
for the drop in production. The hard crab production in Delaware Bay was a complete failure,
with the lowest catch since 1945.

Menhaden. Menhaden production declined 410 million pounds in 1963. Compared with
the previous year, there was a drop of 197 million pounds in New Jersey, 47 million pounds
in New York, and 166 million pounds in Delaware. The menhaden catch of 373 million pounds
accounted for 68 percent of the total Middle Atlantic landings of all species.

Industrial Fishery. Trawl caught industrial fish have become important in the fisheries
of the Middle Atlantic area, Initial landings in quantity, which began in 1962 in the New
York area, have increased and have substituted for the declining catch of menhaden. One
New York plant continued to process large quantities of trawl caught industrial fish, and
another began handling the fish on an experimental basis in the fall of 1963. With the closing
of the only Rhode Island reduction plant, the boats from Rhode Island and Connecticut have
been landing their industrial fish in New York or sending it by transporter to the plant in that
State. The number of boats are limited by mutual agreement so as not to over exploit the
fishery. Indications are that Middle Atlantic production will increase at least for another
season or until the Rhode Island plant is in operation again.

Otter Trawl Fishery. Landings were drastically reduced by unfavorable weather conditions
during the year. This is indicated by smaller landings of scup or porgies, butterfish, and
fluke. New York City's Fulton Fish Market landings of fish and sea scallops dropped 32 per-
cent (3.4 million pounds) compared with the previous year's total, Otter trawl vessels and
scallopers made 127 fewer trips than in 1962, and 166 fewer trips than in 1961. Fulton Fish
Market has mainly transient vessels from New England that land their catches from October
through April. Landings at this port are steadily declining. A number of otter trawl vessels
were lost during storms, and from fires, and other causes in 1963, and few vessels have been
added to the fishery.

Hudson River Fisheries, Commercial landings of Hudson River fish in 1962 were 466,000
pounds worth $90,800--the poorest season on record. The shad run was very light. Striped
bass dropped to as low as 5 cents per pound, giving little incentive for the river fishermen
to build special bass nets to fish the early season. Commercial fishing on the Hudson River
has declined to a casual, seasonal fishery, with few fishermen making a livelihood from the
catch of shad and bass.

Research,

New Jersey. The industry, with technical aid from the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries,
used the vessel Mable Susan to make a preliminary survey of potential surf clam producing
grounds. No new significantly productive areas were located.

MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES *

Striped bass. New Jersey catches of striped bass totaled three-quarters of a million
pounds--the largest recorded catch of these fish in the State. The New York production was
nearly this amount, although not a record, Otter trawl gear was credited with 86 percent of
the catch for New Jersey and 26 percent for New York. Otter trawl catches of striped bass
have increased in recent years,

Tuna. For the first time in New Jersey's history, tuna were landed in commercial quan-
tities at the ports of Jersey City and Cape May by purse seiners from Massachusetts and
California. Because this type of fishing is completely new to New Jersey, dock facilities
were not adequate to handle the fish; however, one dock at Cape May installed tuna-handling
equipment after it received its first catch, 270,000 pounds, in June. It is anticipated that
landings of tuna will continue, and improvements will be made in handling facilities. Total
landings of tuna in the Middle Atlantic area for 1963 were 2.9 million pounds worth $160,000.

Oysters. The oyster industry again had a very poor year and set a new low in landings.
In New Jersey, after an encouraging 1962 season, the production declined by 1 million pounds
of meats. As a result of early observations of the oyster beds, the State closed the public
seed beds at the mouth of the Delaware River. Only two shucking houses were opening New
Jersey oysters. Most shucking houses obtained limited supplies from other States. Prices
paid for shell stock oysters were the highest in the history of the New Jersey oyster industry.
New York production has declined to an insignificant figure compared with the multimillion-
dollar industry of 10 or more years ago. Current stocks of market oysters are very low, with
no immediate prospects for improvement. The 1963 set of seed oysters for Long Island and
Connecticut was insignificant. To supplement their income, oyster growers dredged hard
clams on their private grounds. Without this production of hard clams many would have been
out of business.

Hard clams. The hard clam market and production improved over the previous year. Seven-
ty-four percent of the hard clam production for the Middle Atlantic area came from New York.
Excellent supplies of little necks and cherrystones, shorter supply from other areas, and
higher prices gave incentive to local producers in New York to pushthe production to a higher
level, The increase in production in New Jersey was chiefly in medium-sized clams. In
general, clams were in demand all year. The value of the production of hard clams exceeded
that of any other item of commercial value in the Middle Atlantic Fishery.

The first of a series of steel clam dredge boats were built for operations in the bay areas
of Long Island. They cost an average of about $30,000 each to build and equip. Two vessels
were in operation. As additional boats are constructed, old converted oyster dredge boats will
be retired from the fishery.

Longline Swordfishing. Vessels in New Jersey took the initiative to make an all-out effort
in the longline fishery for swordfish. Seven vessels in New Jersey and a couple from New
York entered the fishery. Early spring catches were landed at Hampton, Va. because the port
was close to the fishing area, Starting in May, the vessels landed all their swordfish and
tuna in New Jersey. Most of these vessels stopped longlining in July and went back to otter
trawling because of the drop in swordfish prices. Some fishermen caught few swordfish;
however, this was blamed mostly on lack of experience in the use of a new gear for swordfish.
It is worthwhile to note that many of the vessels longlining for swordfish during the summer
made part of their catch with harpoons,.

Bay scallops. Bay scallop landings for 1963 were the poorest for the past7 years in New
York. After a peak production in 1962, the catch declined by 686,000 pounds of meats and
$430,000. A very poor set of scallops in 1962 was the major cause for the decline. New
Jersey production dropped 25 percent mainly because of inability to harvest the available
supply due to frozen bays and cold in November and December--the bay scallop season.

o MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES

New York, Starfish and other predators on the oyster and clam grounds have been a major
concern in the Long Island area where extensive mopping and dredging have not eliminated
the starfish. Oyster growers cannot continue to expend large sums of money, time, and
equipment to combat starfish unless oyster production increases, The industry has given
serious consideration to promoting the growth of oyster seed by artificial means. Four firms
in New York have built oyster hatcheries at considerable expense and extensive labor to raise
seed oysters from spawn. From all indications, seed oysters can be successfully grown to
maturity. Production on an extensive commercial basis has yetto be accomplished; however,
some stock raised in the laboratories should be of marketable size.

The New York Conservation Department, in cooperation with the industry, trial-tested
the Japanese raft method of oyster culture. One trial test survived the winter successfully,
and another is being made in Mecox Bay, Southhampton, N.Y. A very successful seed set
was raised in Salt Pond, Fishers Island. These projects show the effort being made to re-
establish the New York oyster industry.

A shellfish transplantation fund with an initial appropriation of $50,000 was established
by the New York Legislature to implement a program of transplanting clams from polluted
waters to pure waters from which they may later be safely harvested for human consumption.
In conjunction with this legislative appropriation and plans of individual townships, hard
clam transplant programs are being implemented,

Other information. Condensed summary data on the operating units and catch, by States,
appearing on the following pages have been previously published in Current Fishery Statis-

HUDSON RIVER SHAD FISHERY

In 1963, the spring run of shad in the Hudson River yielded a commercial catch of
98,074 fish weighing 348,018 pounds, valued at $81,825 to the fishermen. Compared with
the previous year, the poundage declined 34 percent but the value increased 5 percent. Fisher-
men received an average of nearly 24 cents perpound for shad during 1963 compared with about
15 cents in 1962.

During 1963, there were 142 fishermen employed in the Hudson River shad: fishery--26
less than in 1962, Statistics on the 1963 operating units and catch of shad in the Hudson River
by New York and New Jersey fishermen are included in the operating unit and catch data for those
States.

SECTION 4 - CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

The commercial catch of fish and shellfish landed in Maryland and Virginia during 1963
totaled 430 million pounds, valued at $30 million to the fishermen. Compared with 1962,
this was a decrease of 91 million pounds (18 percent), and $3.8 million (1lpercent). The
decline in menhaden and hard blue crabs was the principal cause of the lower landings.
Landings of oysters, spot, shad, white perch, and fluke were down also, while tuna, soft
clams, hard clams, and striped bass were up.

The landings were divided between Virginia, 375 million pounds, 87 percent; and
Maryland, 55 million pounds, 13 percent. In value, the disparity was less, with Virginia
landings worth $19 million, 64 percent; and Maryland, $11 million, 36 percent. The great
difference in poundage was due to the Virginia menhaden fishery, which accounted for 68
percent of that State's catch.

Fishermen and vessels, There were 17,784 fishermen engaged in the fisheries of the Chesa-
peake area during 1963--978 more than in 1962--1,274vessels of 5 net tons andover, 9,495
motor boats, and 888 other boats. There was a total increase of 662 craft, principally in the
Potomac River oyster fishery.

Processing. The value of the 1963 manufactured fishery products in the Chesapeake States
was $58.1--$3.5 million less than in 1962. This decrease was due mainly to a decline in
the value of menhaden meal and scrap, picked crabmeat, and shucked oysters in Virginia.
Of the total value, Maryland had 62 percent and Virginia 38 percent.

Weather, Weatherwas an unusually strong controlling factor in the fisherilesin 1963. Janu-
ary and February were exceptionally cold, with harbors, rivers and portions of the Chesa-
peake Bay freezing over so that fishermen had to be inactive. Principally affected was the
oyster industry. The severe cold was also blamed for the late and small springruns of fish.
The poor hard crab season was attributed to the cold, as many crabs died during these months.

Labor, The wage-hour law of 1961 continued in effect, with packers having adjusted to the
higher minimum wage. In most instances, dealers were able to obtainexemption certificates
for slower or older workers. There were no great changes in automation of the crab meat or
oyster industries during the year.

Legislation, The Potomac RiverFisheries Commission was organized and assumed regulation
of the fisheries in the Potomac River in June 1963. It has six members--three from Maryland
and three from Virginia--who are responsible for the duties of law making, licensing, and
taxing, previously performed by the State of Maryland which owns theriverand which formerly
had granted fishing privileges to Virginia fishermen. Officers and boats from the fishery de-
partments of both States engage in enforcement activities.

After extensive legislative consideration, the James River channel-dredging project
was delayed until reports from engineering experts could be submitted. Those in favor of the
project were industrialists wishing to make the City of Richmond accessible to deep-—draft
vessels; those opposed were a group of Hampton Roads industrialists and a large group of
oyster tongers both of whom feared that the oyster beds would be damaged by the project.
The State of Virginia provided money for a working model of the river.

Oysters. Oyster landings of 18 million pounds of meats were down 8 percent from the
1962 total, a continuation of the decline of the pastfew years. This was a newlow in catch
for the Chesapeake area. The adverse winter weather, poor sets of spat, and losses in
Virginia due to the MSX organism caused the reduced catch, Prices remained steady and
fairly high throughout the year, and the quality of the meats was generally excellent.

CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

The Marylandefforts atrehabilitation of the oysterindustry by dredging and scattering
old shells to catch spat began to show results in the autumn catch. Unfortunately, results
were not as good as anticipated because the first year (1960) in which shells were distributed
was a very poor year for setting. During the spring, packers with little local production pur-
chased shellstock and some shucked oysters from Gulf Coast States to fill orders and meet
competition. During 1963, Virginia continued itsrehabilitation program. The production of
seed oysters was nearly one million State bushels valued at $1.3 million, which was a 27-
percent drop involume and 11-percent in value from the 1962 harvest. The decrease was due
to a poor set of spat.

Blue Crabs. Hard blue crab production of 63 million pounds was a 22-percent decline from
the record catch of 81 million pounds taken in 1962. The catch of peeler and soft crabs also
declined from over 5 million pounds in 1962 to 3 million pounds in 1963. Adverse weather
during the winter and spring was considered partially responsible for the decline. Catches
were very poor all spring, and it was August before near normal landings were made. Crab
pot fishermen were also plagued all season by being unable to obtain a regular supply of men-
haden, the most commonly used bait.

Clams. Hard clam production of 2.6 million pounds of meats was a 25-percent increase
over the 1962 total. A portion of the increase can be attributed to the fact that the 1962
production was held down by a spring storm which disturbed the clam beds.

Soft clam landings of 6.9 million pounds of meats were up a modest 1 percent over the
1962 record catch, All the production was from Maryland. As in past years, locating new
markets was a problem. This resource is capable of yielding far more than can be marketed
at the present time.

Menhaden. Menhaden landings were 259 million pounds--69 million (21 percent) below
the 1962 total. Purse seiners landed 219 million pounds, and fishermen using other gears
landed 40 million. The menhaden industry is concentrated in Virginia, where purse seining
is allowed for industrial processing. Menhaden reduction products in 1963 were valued at
$5 million. Part of the catch was used for bait. Menhaden for bait were so scarce in the
summer that the price more than doubled that at the beginning of the season.

Alewives. The catch of alewives was 27.6 million pounds--only 100,000 pounds below
the bumpercrop of 1962. The production was usedprincipally for canning, curing, and reduc-
tion into meal and oil. There were signs in the Chesapeake of the growing importance of
alewives in pet food. The pet food pack was up in 1963 and is expected to expand further.
The value of the cannedalewife production, including the pack for pet food, was close to $1
million,

Tuna. For the first time, West Coast purse seine vessels landed Pacific tuna in Maryland.
These vessels also landed Atlantic-caught tuna in the State and at other ports on the East
Coast. Three million pounds of bluefin, skipjack, and yellowfin tuna were landed in Mary-
land. Most of the tuna landed on the East Coast was canned in the Maryland canneries.

Swordfish. This new Virginia fishery promised ‘to be a year-round activity for fishing crews
and dealers. At the outset, favorable prices induced Virginia boats to outfit with the neces-
sary longlines, but later in the year, heavy landings in New England drove prices down,
causing some Virginia vessels to withdraw, At the close of the year, however, all signs
pointed to a continuing and thriving fishery as dealers sought new markets outside New Eng-
land.

Croakers. Croakers almost disappeared from the Chesapeake areain 1963. Only 124,000

CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

pounds were landed--a drop of 90 percent from the previous year and the lowest catch ever
recorded, In 1945, the catch was a record 57.7 million pounds.

Fresh-water fish. Many Chesapeake tributaries have extensive fresh-water areas. In
some localities there is a year-round fishery for catfish, the principal species taken from
these waters. The fish are handled in two principal ways--live and dressed (skinned), Live
are for stocking farm and recreation impoundments; and dressed, for the active demand of
out-of-State markets. Carp,eels, white and yellow perch, and snapper turtles are the more
plentiful of the remaining fresh-water species that are regularly fished. In 1963, the cat-
fish catch was 2 million pounds--a drop of 700,000 pounds (25 percent) below 1962. The other
species were minorin quantity compared with catfish but found ready acceptance in specialized
outlets.

Fish kills. Extensive fish kills occurred during the summer. White perch was the domi-
nant species in the kills, with a few striped bass and other species reported, The kills
started on the western shore of the bay and traveled up that side to the head of the bay and
then down the eastern shore, Biologists working on the problem attributed the kill, in some
instances, to bacteria found in the kidneys and blood stream of the affected fish.

Other information, Condensed summary data on the operating units and catch, by States,
appearing on the following pages have been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics
No. 3616, Thecatch of fishand shellfish in the bay and ocean areas of Maryland and Virginia
is shown at the endofthis section, Additional data may be found in the Maryland and Virginia
monthly and annual landing bulletins published by the Branch of Fishery Statistics in coopera-
tion with the respective States. Information on the daily, monthly, and annual production of
fishery products in selected areas of these States is available in reports published by the
Bureau's Fishery Market News Office at Hampton, Va.

The 1963 commercial catch of fish and shellfish landed at ports of the South Atlantic
States (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and the East Coast of Florida), including
the commercial catch from fresh-water areas of Florida, was 371 million pounds, valued at
$19.5 million. Compared with the previous year, this was an increase of over 65 million
pounds, butadecrease of nearly $4 million. Record landings of blue crabs and larger catches
of menhaden in North Carolina waters were the major factors inthe increased landings. The
decrease in value was due to an almost complete "crop failure" of shrimp in nearly all South
Atlantic waters. Inaddition to poor catches, the ex-vessel prices for shrimp were relatively
low during the peak production periods. Compared with 1962, North Carolina total landings
increased 41 percent; and the value, 4 percent. In other States, the volume and value de-
clined from 1962--South Carolina, 3 and 31; Georgia, 5 and 43; and Florida, East Coast 9
and 12 percent, respectively.

Fishermen and vessels. There were 11,940 commercial fishermen in the South Atlantic
area--569 less than in 1962. Most of the decrease was among fishermen in the shore and
boat category. Over the past several years, the fisheries prosecuted by these small craft
and by gear operated from shore have become less remunerative, and fishermen have shifted
to industries which appeared to offer more stable employment and higher income. Vessels of
5 net tons and over numbered 1,157--an increase of 16 over the previous year. In December,
a North Atlantic vessel, using longlines, caught swordfish about 40 miles off Oregon Inlet
on the western edge of the Gulf Stream, This interested North Carolina fishermen, several
of whom made plans to rig their vessels for taking swordfish during 1964.

Processing. The value of processed fishery products during 1963 was $40.1 million--$5 .3
million less thanthe previous year. Processed shrimp items, production of which is centered
in Georgia and Florida, accounted for nearly one-half of the total value.

Weather. There was no unusual curtailment of fishing because of weather. No damage was
caused by hurricane Ginny, which swept the offshore waters of the South Atlantic coast during
October, although side effects--heavy rains, ground swells, and gusty winds--reduced
fishing fora 4-to-5-day period. While not directly affecting fishing, wide variation in norms
was reported in two States--North Carolina had the driest April, while South Carolina had
the wettest June on record, «=

Shrimp. Fishermen of the South Atlantic States had a disastrous year. Total landings were
the lowest recorded by the Bureau since 1908, In addition to the apparent "crop failure" of
the major species within each State, ex-vessel prices were low. Major factors in the price
decline were the greatly increased landings at Gulf ports and record imports. In comparison
with 1962, South Carolina suffered most with a decline of 66 percent in volume of landings
and 75 percentin value. North Carolina landings declined 42 percent in volume, and 52 per-
cent in value; and Georgia landings were down 37 percent, and value, 54 percent. Florida,
East Coast fared best witha decline of only 13 percent and 32 percent in landings and value,
respectively. Additional information concerning the South Atlantic shrimp fishery appears on
pages 214 to 216.

Menhaden, An increase of over 67 million pounds inthe North Carolina catch was a welcome
improvement over the disastrously low landings during 1962. Florida, East Coast landings
were nearly 9 million pounds less than those of 1962. Almost all of the menhaden were used
to produce meal, oil, and solubles. The eight reduction plants in North Carolina were sup-
plied by a fleet of 54 vessels, while the one plant in Florida was supplied by 3 vessels..
Market conditions for menhaden meal, oil, and solubles were good throughout the year. The
average price for fish meal and scrap was $125 per ton--the same as the previous year.
Most of the solubles were sold at an average of $54 per ton--$6 less than in 1962. Oil
prices averaged 50 cents per gallon--an increase of about 18 cents over 1962. The oil yield
at North Carolina plants was lower than usual because of a greater proportion of small fish.

Oysters. Landings were about 1 million pounds of meats (26 percent) more than during 1962.
South Carolina continued to be the major producer, accounting for 79 percent of the total.
Increased landings were alsorecorded at Georgia and Florida, East Coast ports. North Caro-
lina catches continued on a downward trend and prompted the State Department of Conserva-
tion and Development to initiate a program of oyster shell planting to maintain this important
fishery. While there were some market problems, overall demand was good, and most oyster
shuckers found ready markets for their production. Quantities of oysters from the Gulf States
were again trucked to the South Atlantic area for processing.

Blue crabs. Crab fishermen experienced an excellent year as evidenced by the record landings
in every State except Georgia. Total landings of 50.9 million pounds surpassed by 6.0 mil-
lion pounds the 1960 record. Production of picked crab meat--4.8 million pounds during
1963--was 722,000 pounds more than in 1962. Some of the landings were shipped to processing
plants in the Chesapeake States. The excellent market demand for crab meat throughout the
year afforded fishermen a ready market for their catches. Production of soft blue crabs,
centered in North Carolina, continued to decline, with landings 15 percent less than in 1962.

Hard clams. The scarcity of shrimp in North Carolina and South Carolina waters prompted
more fishermen to enter the clam fishery to maintain their income. The additional fishermen
resulted in an increase of nearly 100,000 pounds (31 percent) of meats, compared with 1962.
Catches from the offshore waters of North Carolina were very poor in volume and quality
of meats.

Bay scallops. This species was landed only at North Carolina ports. Production for the
State was 150,000 pounds of meats greater thanin 1962. Impetus for the increased production
was supplied through the creation of greater demand by more aggressive marketing and tighter
quality controls.

Food finfish. Total landings of finfish for human consumption were 68.5 million pounds, with
a dockside value of $6.3 million--only a minor change from the previous year, when landings
were 69.4 million pounds valued at $6.5 million. Compared with 1962, there was a decline
of only 1 percentinthe total landings of 14 species which normally comprise over 90 percent
of the edible finfish landings. Ofthese 14 species, landings of king whiting, gray sea trout,
sea bass, shad, spot, and Spanish mackerel were considerably less than in 1962. Compen-
sating in part for this decline were increases in croakers and flounders. Landings of flounders
established a new record for the area.

Other fisheries. There were three rather unusual developments during the year--the previous-
ly mentioned discovery of swordfish concentrations off Oregon Inlet in North Carolina, an
unprecedented run of bluefish off the coast of South Carolina during November, and quantities
of mullet (Mugil cephalus) caught in shrimp trawls by vessels fishing Georgia waters during
the autumn,

Research. A new 52-foot research vessel for the Bears Bluff Laboratory, Wadmalaw Island,
S.C., was launched during September. In trial runs during December, the vessel, designed
for use in estuarine and offshore programs, metall expectations. Of interest is the fact that
the stem of the vessel was milled from a live oak tree growing inthe woods near the labora-
tory. The Bureau of Commercial Fisheries and the various State agencies continued their
research and service programs on the major fisheries of the South Atlantic States. Specific
and detailed accomplishments by the Bureau are contained in Report of the Bureau of Comm-
ercial Fisheries, Calendar Year 1963, and Operations of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries
Under the Saltonstall-Kennedy Act, Fiscal Year 1963.

SOUTH ATLANTIC FISHERIES

SOUTH ATLANTIC SHRIMP FISHERY

Nineteen hundred and sixty-three was one of the poorest shrimp years on record for
the South Atlantic States. Total landings of 9.8 million pounds, heads-off weight, were 6.7
million pounds less than in 1962 and were the lowest recorded since 1908. The dockside
value ($5.2 million) was $6.0 million less than 1962 and the lowest value recorded since 1945.

Landings of all species inthe commercial catches were substantially below the levels
of the previous year. The significance of these changes are more apparent when viewed on
an individual State basis, as different species normally predominate in the landings within
each State.

In North Carolina, most of the 1.5-million-pound decline was due to a disastrous
shortage of pink shrimp. Landings of this species were only slightly over one-fourth of those
in 1962 and the lowest since the Bureau began collecting detailed shrimp statistics in 1957.
While brown shrimp landings were nearly 1/2 million pounds less than in 1962, they were
considerably better than the previous low production of 1958 and 1961. The shrimp season
for inside waters opened on May 26, about 2 weeks later than in 1962. The quantity and size
of shrimp taken during the opening weeks of the season were most disappointing. Inside
waters were temporarily closed during the week of June 27 because the shrimp, in most
waters, were not large enough for commercialuse. The inside waters were reopenedon July 17,
but while the size of the shrimp had improved, the volume was far below normal, Catches
from offshore waters were also much less than for many years. The average ex-vessel price
was 51 cents per pound (heads-off weight)--1l cents per pound less than the 1962 average.

A great shortage of white shrimpin South Carolina waters was the major factor in de-
creased shrimp landings. Total landings of this species (184,000 pounds) were about one-
tenth the poundage landed during 1962. The first substantial catches in South Carolina
waters were made during the week of June 20 and were brown shrimp. Catches for the first
10 to 15 days compared favorably with those of 1962, but declinedrapidly in July, with most
vessels averaging less than one-half box (50 pounds, heads-off weight) per day's fishing.
The lack of any quantity of white shrimp containing roe, normally mixed with brown shrimp
catches during this summer period, causedindustry members to be concerned over prospects
for the fallrun of white shrimp. This concern became areality when white shrimp were found
to be almost nonexistent in most South Carolina waters during the autumn. A decline of 17
cents per pound (heads-off) in the average ex-vessel price, compared with 1962, was an
additional blow to the fishing segment of the shrimp industry.

Georgia experienced a situation similar to that of South Carolina. Catches of white
shrimp, which were about one-third less than those of 1962, were the major factor in the de-
cline. Adverse weather conditions during October, usually a peak production month for white
shrimp, played an important part in decreased catches of this species. While landings of
brown shrimp were 662,000 pounds less than in 1962, they were over three times greater
than the record low of 1961. Sporadic fishing for royal red shrimp continued, but landings
were only about one-half the quantity taken during 1962. Georgia fishermen experienced the
sharpest decline in average ex-vessel price--52 cents per pound (heads-off) during 1963,
compared with 71 cents during 1962.

Florida, East Coast fared better than the other South Atlantic States with a decline of
only 13 percent in total shrimp production, White shrimp landings were 135,000 pounds less
than in 1962, The average ex-vessel price was 60 cents per pound (heads-off)--16 cents
less than the 1962 average.

The quantities shown in the following tables are heads-off weight of the shrimp and
are not directly comparable with the volume data published in the General Review, regional
tables, or the Review of Certain Major Fisheries, which represent the round weight of the
catch. The pounds of heads-off shrimp may be converted to heads-on (round) weight by mul-
tiplying brown by 1.61; pink, 1.60; white, 1.54; sea bobs, 1.53; and royal red, by 1..80.

Detailed information on 1963 landings of shrimp in the South Atlantic States, by
months for each State, was published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3520.

SOUTH ATLANTIC FISHERIES 217
SURVEY PROCEDURE IN THE SOUTH ATLANTIC STATES

Statistical programs in the South Atlantic States are under the general supervision of the
Bureau's Regional Office in St. Petersburg Beach, Fla., and direct supervision of a Regional
Supervisor stationed in New Orleans, La. Collection of data is carried out by Fishery Reporting
Specialists trained in obtaining and reporting fishery statistical data. They are stationed in
Beaufort, N.C.; Charleston, S.C.; Brunswick, Ga.; and Miami, Fla. Supervisory field per-
sonnel are also stationed in Beaufort, N.C. and Miami, Fla.

Catch Statistics: The collection of catch statistics is a joint venture of the Bureau of
Commercial Fisheries and the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Standard forms designed forthe needs of each State, the Bureau, and industry are used to collect
catch data in each State. Forms are mailed to dealers or buyers each month with a request that
they be completed and returned by a specified date. The forms provide for reporting the pounds
and value of the species purchased from fishermen, or caught by the producers! fleets. Forms
not returned by the deadline date are picked up by Bureau or State employees. The data, which
are tabulated for publication in monthly landings bulletins for the various States, show the volume
of the catch of each species by county or district and the total value of each species.

When there are revisions in the monthly data already published, corrections are made in the
cumulative totals in the current monthly bulletin. The revised figures for the individual months
appear in the annual bulletin. Field reporting specialists interview fishermen and dealers to ob-
tain annual information on the quantity of each species taken by the types of gear operated and
the various bodies of water in which the catch was made. When the interviewing has been com-
pleted and the catch has been credited to the respective gears and water areas, an annual report
is prepared on a specially designed form showing volume and value of the catch by species, gear,
and area of capture. The forms are then forwarded to the Washington Office where the data are
machine processed. The figures are reviewed in the Central office and by field personnel con-
cerned with the survey. When all discrepancies have been reconciled, the data are published
in a sectional summary in the Current Fishery Statistics series entitled "South Atlantic Fisheries"
and, subsequently, in the Digest, "Fishery Statistics of the United States."

Data on the catch by water area for the South Atlantic States are not published. However,
the information is machine processed and supplied to State and federal offices and laboratories
inthe area. Information on the catch by counties has not been published in the Digest since 1960.
However, the data are prepared and copies ofthe tabulations are maintained in the Central office.

Operating Units: Fieldreporting specialists are supplied with a set of prepunched IBM
vessel cards obtained from the Bureau of Customs. The cards are prepunched with the following
information: name, official number, rig code, gross tonnage, length, and year built. The re-
porting specialist, through interviews, obtains data on the number of crew; and number, type,
and quantity of gear utilized by the vessel during the year. The number and quantity of gear is
the greatest quantity fished at one time. It does not include replacement gear aboard the vessel
or ashore.

When the reporter has completed the entries on the vessel cards, they are forwarded to the
Regional Supervisor who arranges for the punching and tabulating of the data, The tabulations
are then forwarded to the reporter who prepares operating unit tables for the State. Data on the
shore and boat fishery (those craft of less than 5 net tons and fishermen operating without benefit
of craft along the shore) which have been assembled by the reporter by personal interview and
from State records are entered on the State operating unit tables in much the same manner as for
the vessel fishery. Lists of boat and shore fishermen are usually maintained in the files of the
reporter.

When all reconciliation of the data has been accomplished in the Region, the operating unit
tabulations are forwarded to the Washington office. If discrepancies are discovered, these are
reconciled. Summary operating unit data are then published in a section CFS bulletin entitled
"South Atlantic Fisheries." These data and detailed information on the operating units by gear
are published in the annual Digest. Information on the operating units by counties is prepared
but has notbeen published inthe Digest since 1960. Copies of the tabulations are prepared each
year and are on file in the Central office.

Processed Fishery Products: Information on the production of processed fishery
Produets (canned, fresh and frozen packaged fish and shellfish, “cured" items, and industrial

a6 SOUTH ATLANTIC FISHERIES

fishery products) is obtained from processors through the use of especially designed question-
naires. Data are obtained on the monthly production of fish meal, oil, and solubles, fish sticks,
portions, and breaded shrimp and published currently during the year. Statistics on the production
of other processed products are obtained annually.

Individual monthly and annual reports are forwarded to the Washington office for tabulation
and publication of the data. Monthly data are published in bulletins entitled "Fish Meal and Oil"
and "Fish Sticks, Fish Portions, and Breaded Shrimp." The latter is released quarterly. Annual
data are released in bulletins entitled "Canned Fishery Products;" “Industrial Fishery Products"
(fish meal, oil, and solubles, etc.); "Packaged Fishery Products" (fresh and frozen fillets and
steaks); and "Manufactured Fishery Products." The latter report contains a summary of the data
contained in the monthly and annual processed bulletins and also information on the annual pro-
duction of packaged shellfish and cured fishery products.

The Fishery Market News office in Hampton, Va., covers part of the North Carolina area on
a daily basis. Persons interested in current day-to-day trends should consult that office. The
monthly landings bulletins represent the best available information ona monthly and seasonal basis
and the Statistical Digest represents the most complete annual data available in Bureau records.

Annual statistical surveys of the fisheries of the South Atlantic States have been made for the
following years:

SECTION 6 - GULF FISHERIES

The 1963 commercial catch of fish and shellfish landed at ports of the Gulf States
(West Coast of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas) totaled nearly 1.4
billion pounds, with a dockside value of $98.8 million. Compared with 1962, landings de-
creased 37.9 million pounds, while the value increased $4.3 million. For the second con-
secutive year a newvalue record was established for the area. Industrial fish (menhaden and
other species used for bait, reduction, and animal food) yieldedlandings 9 percentless than
in 1962 and was responsible for the decrease in the total. Although the ex-vessel price for
shrimp was substantially below that of the previous year, a 43-percent increase in the catch
of this "money crop" accounted for the gain in value.

The decline in industrial fishlandings was reflected in the total for the States where
this fishery is concentrated; thus, Louisiana landings were down 2 percent; Texas, 3 percent;
and Mississippi, 8 percent. West Coast of Florida landings were 4 percent more than in
1962, while Alabama registered a gain of 64 percent. The value of landings increased 48
percent in Alabama; 17 percent in Louisiana; and 8 percent in Mississippi. The value of
Florida landings was 10 percent less than in 1962, while Texas showed little change.

Fishermen and Vessels. The numberof fishermen (24,483) increased 1,271 over the previous
year. There were increases of 676 fishermen aboard vessels and 595 employed in the boat
and shore fisheries. There were 150 more vessels (craft of over 5 net tons) than in 1962.
Accounting for the increase were newly constructed vessels and a greater than usual number
of trawlers from the South Atlantic States, which migrated to Gulf waters as a result of the
very poor shrimp season in those States. Bureau of Customs records indicate that 239 vessels
were issued first documents as fishing craft in the Gulf area--about 25 percent going directly
to fishing grounds off the coast of Central and South America. Most of these vessels were
engaged in the shrimp fishery and landed catches at American-owned or-operated plants in
Barbados, British Guiana, French Guiana, and Surinam; however, in addition, 8 purse seiners
journeyed to Chile and Peru to fish anchovies for U.S.-operated reduction plants in those
countries.

Processing. The upward trend in the value of processed fishery products continued, with the
1963 value of $174 million surpassing that of the previous year by more than $4 million and
establishing a new record. The value of edible items was $138 million in 1963. These items
included shrimp products, accounting for 78 percent, and oysters as principal ingredient 8
percent. Industrial products (mainly menhaden meal, oil and solubles) accounted for 14
percent of the total value of manufactured products.

Weather. Fishing was curtailed a little more than usual during 1963 as a result of adverse
weather. A severe freeze enveloped much of the coastal areas for extended periods during
February. Quantities of choice fish (red drum, spotted sea trout, etc.) were stunned by the
cold and floated to the surface where they were quickly gathered up by Texas and Louisiana
fishermen.

Major fisheries which reach peak production during the summer were harassed by
severe afternoon thundershowers throughout most of June andJuly. One hurricane (Cindy) swept
along the Texas coast in mid-September; damage to gear and craft was very light, but some
shore plant installations were damaged by high water. On the last day of the year, nearly the
entire mid-Gulf coastal area (Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana) was covered with an
unprecedented blanket of snow.

Labor, Processing plants of the Gulf States were closely scrutinized by the U.S. Department
of Labor to ensure that all were complying with the new minimum wage standards. Members
of the industry had mixed feelings on the matter--those utilizing both fresh and frozen sea-
foods in their processing, thus assuring a fairly constant source of supply, found little

219

220 GULF FISHERIES

difficulty in meeting the minimum standards. Those whose operations were dependent solely
upon supplies of fresh seafoods had difficulty since the sporadic nature of landings made it
difficult to establish a standard workday or workweek. A labor union began organizing activ-
ities among menhaden fishermen on vessels supplying the Sabine, Tex., and Cameron, La.,
processing plants, and plans were announced for extending the organizing activities to the
remainder of the Gulf menhaden fleets.

Legislation. The Texas legislature enacted a bill that provided an additional shrimp season
for inside waters, May 15 through July 15, with a daily possession limit of 300 pounds of
heads-on shrimp for each boat per day. Included in the same bill was a minimumcount size
of 65 headless or 39 heads-on for all shrimp taken during the open fallseason. Previously,
the minimum size was 50 headless or 30 heads-on for brown or pink shrimp during the fall
season. Not under the minimum count size requirements are seabobs or shrimp taken during
the spring commercial season, taken for bait orlanded graded. Another enactment of the Texas
legislature of interest to the fishing industry was a bill that combined the Texas Game and
Fish Commission and the State Parks Board to form a new agency "Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department," which began operating in August.

Shrimp, Total landings, while not at record levels, were over 61 million pounds (heads-on
weight) greater than in 1962. Substantial increases were recorded in each of the States.
Louisiana (81 million pounds) regained its positionas volume leader, withan increase of over
37 million pounds, while Alabama (8 million) and Texas (70 million) had gains of 4 and 14
million pounds, respectively. Mississippilandings were up over 3 million pounds; and Florida
(West Coast), about 2.8 million pounds. A sharpdecline in ex-vessel prices during the last
half of the year partially offset the economic gain to fishermen and processors resulting from
the increased catches. This is well illustrated by the fact that compared with 1962, Gulf
landings of shrimp were up 43 percent, while the value rose only 5 percent. Crews of 80 to 90
Campeche shrimp trawlers stopped fishing for a short period during October and November in
protest against steadily declining ex-vessel prices. The vessels left the distant Campeche
grounds empty andreturned to Florida ports, and no vessels sailed from Florida ports for about
1 week. The crews hoped that their demonstration would focus national attention on the fact
that there had not been a drop in retail shrimp prices commensurate with the lower ex-vessel
prices. Asecondary purpose was to point out the need for Federal action to provide for tariffs
or quotas on imported shrimp, since the crews considered the record volume of imports to be a
major factor in ex-vessel price reductions.

Processing plants at Louisiana ports were unable to handle all the shrimp landed during
the first few weeks of the spring season. In some instances, fishermen peddled their catches
from door to door in nearby cities, and many individuals purchased shrimp at bargain prices
directly from the boats.

Canning plants, which use the bulk of the smaller size shrimp, operated at full capac-
ity during the spring. As the fall season progressed, with even greater landings, some canners
became apprehensive about the rapid growth of their inventories and curtailed operations for as
long as 3 weeks. In an effort to stimulate sales of canned shrimp, the Gulf Shrimp Canners
Association, assisted by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, launched an intensive advertis-
ing campaign during October. Canners were also faced with stiff competition from foreign
countries in both domestic and foreign markets. At the close of the year, processors of raw
headless, peeled and deveined, and breaded shrimp also were concerned over large cold
storage inventories and rather little marketdemand. It is probable the apparent light demand
resulted from the large supply of shrimp, since supplies were 17 percent greater than in 1962,
the previous record year and consumption was at a high level.

GULF FISHERIES 221

Trading in shrimp futures began on November 11 at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.
All transactions were in units of 5,000 pounds of 15 to 20 count heads-off frozen brown shrimp
meeting U.S. Department of the Interior Grade A standards. First trades were scheduled for
delivery during January 1964.

Menhaden. While landings were 89 million pounds less than the 1962 record, prices for sol-
ubles and oil increased, and fishermen and processors had a good year. An important factor
in the decreased landings was the unfavorable weather throughout most of June and July.
Recurring afternoon thunder squalls dispersed menhaden schools, making large catches diffi-
cult. Prices for meal and scrap averaged $120 per ton, about the same as the previous year;
however, solubles sold at an average of $59 per ton--$9 per ton more than during 1962.
Markets for oil, which were unstable at the beginning of the year, strengthened as the season
progressed, and the average price was 46 cents per gallon--about 12 cents over the average
1962 price. A Louisiana firm announced development of a new type seine boat of bow and
stern construction rather than the "double ender" of the past. The manufacturer claimed that,
with the advent of power blocks, seine boats needed greater stability and this was achieved
with the new design. More knotless nylon webbing was used in seines during the year. This
type netting permits the use of larger seines, while adding little to the overall bulk or weight.
The same Gulf firm that took delivery of several new seiners to be used in South American
waters also assembled and shipped two complete processing plants, which were to be erected
in Iquique, Chile, and Planchade, Peru.

Other Industrial Fish, Landings offish, other thanmenhaden, for industrial use (bait, reduc-
tion, or animal food), amounting to 80.1 million pounds, were 16.8 million pounds less than in
1962. Some processors of pet food, the major users of these landings, replaced fish with
chicken offal obtained from the vast broiler industry in nearby areas, and some imported fish
was also used for pet food.

Oysters. Landings of 24 million pounds were 240,000 pounds of meats less than the record
1939 production. Compared with the previous year, this was a gainof over 5 million pounds.
All States except Florida (West Coast) participated in this increase. Alabama, Mississippi,
and Texas landings were more than double those of 1962, while Louisiana landings were up 14
percent. Most of the increase in Mississippi and Louisiana was used by canners and resulted
in a pack of 313,000 standard cases--118,000 cases over the 1962 pack. Production of
shucked oysters (1,454,000 gallons) was 19 percent greater than in 1962. Periods of weak
market demand resulted in shuckers receiving an average of $6.20 per gallon compared with
$6.32 the previous year.

Crabs. The blue crab fishery improved only slightly: total landings of 26.9 million pounds
were only 612,000 pounds greater than those of 1962. This was the second consecutive year
in which landings were substantially below the 35-million-pound level recorded for 19 60 and
1961. The volume of catch within each of the States varied: landings on the West Coast of
Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi, were greater than the previous year while those in Texas
and Louisiana were 1.5 and 1.6 million pounds less, respectively, than in 1962. Since the
number of fishermen, craft, and gear used was nearly the same as the previous year, and as
there was good market demand for crabs, it appeared that the environment in these two States
was not favorable for the crab populations. Otter ttawls, usedexclusively for taking crabs,
were used for the first time in Florida waters by fishermen of the northwest coastal area.
This venture was not particularly successful, and probably this type gear will not be used in
the future. Production of fresh and frozen crab meat was 24 percent greater than in 1962,
despite the fact that landings increased only 3 percent. Three factors explain this apparently
paradoxical situation--more crabs were used for processing rather than live sales, there was a
slight increase in the yield of meat in some areas, and Florida (West Coast) landings were
supplemented with crabs shipped in from the South Atlantic area. The crab meat market was
strong despite the increased production: the average price was $1.15 per pound--a gain of
10 cents per pound over 1962.

222 GULF FISHERIES

Edible Finfish. There was little change in the total quantity of finfish landed for human con-
sumption--92.8 million pounds during 1963 compared with 92.6 million pounds the previous
year. Of the five species that normally account for over 75 percent of the volume and value
of landings, only two were received in greater quantities than in 19 62--red snapper increased
7 percent; and spotted sea trout, 5 percent. Species registering declines were: fresh-water
catfish, down 3 percent; mullet, 1 percent; groupers, 4 percent; and spanish mackerel, 21
percent.

Compared with 1962, red snapper landings increased 796,000 pounds to about 12.7
million pounds--the highest, according to Bureau records since 1902, when 13.6 million
pounds were landed. The snapper fleet continued to grow with 11 new vessels entering the
fishery during 1963. Snapper fishermen became quite concerned over the number of vessels
(American and foreign) fishing the Campeche grounds. They considered this to be the reason
for a lower total catch that included a larger portion of small fish.

Activities of Foreign Vessels. Russian trawlers were present in the international waters off
the Florida and Louisiana coasts during the year. Specificinformation on the volume of their
catches and type of gear used is not available, but it is presumed that the fishing activity
was primarily exploratory. The activities of Russian trawlers and some Cuban fishing craft
prompted the Florida legislature to enact a law commonly known as the "Alien Fishery Law".
The law prohibits the granting or issuing of licenses for commercial fishing in Florida terri-
torial waters to any vessel owned in wholeor part by any alien power which subscribes to the
doctrine of Communism.

Research, Programs of both the Bureauand State conservation agencies, designed to provide
a scientific basis for the sound management of fishery resources, were maintained atthe same
level as the previous year,

A research project of the Bureau's Branch of Exploratory Fishing and Gear Research
commanded the immediate attention of the shrimp industry. The aim of the project is to de-
velope an otter trawl with an electrical stimulus capable of harvesting burrowed shrimp during
daylight. This shrimp research program progressed from laboratory and controlled field experi-
ments to an actual field test which produced promising results during October.

An application of research findings occurred in Texas where the minimum size limit of
oysters was reduced from 3-1/2 to 3 inches. Research by the Texas Parks and Wildlife
Department showed that about 70 percent of the oysters of 3 inches and larger were lost
because of the parasitic fungus, Dermocystidium marinum, Reduction of the size limit per-
mitted fishermen to harvest oysters prior to the summer loss due to the disease.

General, A massive fish kill took place in portions of the Mississippi River within the State
of Louisiana during the autumn. The kill was much greater than that which had been noted
during the same period in each of the 3 previous years. While the greatest mortality involved
nearly all major fresh-water species of commercial importance, quantities of salt-water
species, particularly menhaden, were also killed in many of the passes at the mouth of the
river. The U.S. Public Health Service stated that its initial findings indicated the pesticide
endrin was responsible for the kills. Commercial fishermen also reported similar kills of
fresh-water species in many streams of the Atchafalaya basin. The widespread publicity given
the fish kills had a disturbing influence on the sale of fish at the retail and wholesale level.

Other information, Condensed summary data on operating units and catch by States appearing
on the following pages have been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3679.
Data on the catch and operating units of the east coast of Florida and the entire State of

GULF FISHERIES 223

Florida may be found in Section 5 of this Digest. Seasonal variations inthe catch of fish
and shellfish in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas can be ascertained
from monthly landing bulletins issued currently for these States in cooperation with the fish-
ery agencies of each State. Additional aspects of the Gulf fisheries may be found in daily,
monthly, and annual reports published by the Bureau's Fishery Market News Service, Federal
Building, 600 South Street, New Orleans, La., 70130. Specific and detailed accomplishments
of the Bureau are contained in, Report of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, Calendar Year
1963, and Operations of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries under the Saltonstall-KennedyAct,
Fiscal Year 1963.

GULF FISHERIES

GULF SHRIMP FISHERY

Greater abundance of shrimp on all majorfishing grounds of the northern Gulf in 1963
resulted in an increase of over 39 million pounds (heads-off weight) in total landings at Gulf
ports compared with the previous year. Fishing grounds located between the Mississippi River
and the Louisiana-Texas border were again the most productive, yielding 26 million pounds
more than in 1962 and approximately 41 percent of the total 1963 Gulflandings. Other areas
with increases over 1962 were Sanibel-Tortugas, up 1.8 million pounds; northwest Florida,
up 1.1 million; Pensacola to Mississippi River, up 5.3 million; and the Texas coast, up 8.7
million pounds. There was a decrease of about 5.9 million pounds in catches from the high
seas off foreign coasts. The abundance of shrimp in nearby waters precluded the necessity for
fishing more distant grounds. Inallnorthern Gulf areas except northwest Florida, the increased
catches were accomplished by craft making fewer trips than during the previous year.

For the second successive year, an excellent run of white shrimp in Louisiana waters
was a major factor in a change in the species composition of the Gulflandings. This species
comprised 37 percent of the 1963 landings compared with 26 percent the previous year. Brown
shrimp accounted for 43 percent of the landings--3 percent less than 1962--and pink shrimp,
19 percent compared with 25 percent during 1962. Seabobs androyal red shrimp accounted for
1 percent compared with 3 percent the previous year. There were no significant changes from
1962 in the count size (number of heads-off shrimp per pound) composition of landings--the
smaller count sizes (31 and over) continued to predominate.

The ex-vessel value of landings did not increase in the same magnitude as the volume.
The value of catches from the West Coast of Florida and Texas was less than that of the pre-
vious year despite increases in volume. Ex-vessel prices for smaller size shrimp (over 31
count) began a downward trend following an exceptional run of shrimp in the Tarpon springs-
Gedar Keys area during April. Large catches of small shrimp in Louisiana inside waters after
the opening of the season on May 15 accelerated the downwardtrend. Relatively large year-
end inventories of canned and frozen small shrimp, which remained unsold at the close of
1962, also contributed to the price decline. The ex-vessel prices for large shrimp (under 25
count) remained at comparatively high levels with no appreciable weakening until July. The
lowest prices for the year for these sizes were paid during October. At the close of the year,
ex-vessel prices on all sizes were stable and on a general upwardtrend. The average annual
ex-vessel price per pound (heads-off weight) was 49 cents, about 18 cents per pound less
than the 1962 average. There was a decline of 16 cents in the average ex-vessel price for
shrimp landed at West Coast of Florida, Mississippi, and Louisiana ports, a 17-cent decline
in Texas, and a 20-cent-per-pound decline in Alabama.

The following tabulations include information on the species of shrimp taken in the Gulf
by size; the number of fishing trips; and the catch by area, depth, and size. Catch figures
represent the heads-off weight and, therefore, are not directly comparable with the heads-on
(live weight) quantities published in the General Review, regional tables, or the Review of
Certain MajorFisheries. The pounds of heads-off shrimp may be converted to heads-on weight
by multiplying brown shrimp poundage by 1.61; white, 1.54; pink, 1.60; seabobs, 1.53; and
royal red, 1.80.

Information on the landings and catch of shrimp in the Gulf area in the following tables
has been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3520. Data on landings and
value of shrimp by speciesand size for the SouthAtlantic States are included in Section 5 of
this Digest.

SURVEY PROCEDURE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO

The statistical program in the Gulf States is underthe general direction of the Bureau's
Regional Office in St. Petersburg Beach, Fla., with direct supervision by a regional super-
visor of statistics and market news in New Orleans, La. The program is prosecuted by field
reporters stationed at Key West, Miami, Fort Myers, Tampa, and Apalachicola, Fla.; Bayou
LaBatre, Ala.; Ocean Springs, Miss.; New Orleans, Galiano, Houma, and Morgan City, La.;
and Port Arthur, Galveston, Freeport, Aransas Pass, Brownsville, and Port Isabel, Texas.
These fieldreporters are specialists trainedin obtaining and reporting fishery statistical data
on a daily, monthly, and annual basis.

Statistics assembled by the Bureau on the fisheries of the Gulf States Coastal area
include data on employment of fishermen, shoreworkers, fishing craft and gear, the volume
and value of the catch, and the volume and value of processed fishery products. The data
are assembled from all available sources including records maintained by State fishery agen-
cies, fishermen, and fish wholesale dealers, buyers, and processors.

Catch. Cooperative programs of differing magnitudes have been established with the fishery
agencies of each of the five Gulf States. Texas and Florida have State monthly reporting
systems, whereby dealers and buyers are required to submita monthly report on forms supplied
by the State, listing the quantity of fish and shellfish by species purchased from fishermen.
Field reporters of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries assist in the collection and tabulation
of data for publishing in monthly landing bulletins for these States. In Alabama, Mississippi,
and Louisiana, tax records are utilized by Bureau employees in obtaining landing data on
oysters. Certain catch records on fish landed in Louisiana are also obtained from records of
that State. Data on receipts in the New Orleans French Market are collected by reporting
specialists of the Bureau ona daily basis for use in the daily reports published by the Fishery
Market News Service and are supplied the State of Louisiana at the end of each month. In-
formation on all finfish, crab, and shrimp landings in Alabama and Mississippi is collected
by Bureau employees.

Shortly after the close of each year, a revised tabulation is prepared listing the
species catch by volume and value by county. Shrimp are excluded since they have been
recorded on punch cards each month. Such revisions as are necessary in the daily or monthly
data previously published are made in the annual tabulation. Fishermen and dealers are in-
terviewed to determine the area of capture (water body) and the type of gear utilized for taking
each species. When the interview is completed, the landings (or catches) totals are prorated
to the proper waters and gear within each county, and catch statistics by waters and gear for
each county are forwarded to the Washington office. The data are transferred to punch cards
and machine processed. Detailedinformation onthe shrimp catch, which had previously been
entered on punch cards is nowintegrated with the figures for other species. Processed data
are forwarded to field reporters for examination, auditing, and necessary revisions, after
which they are returned to the Washington office for final review and publication.

Throughout the Gulf, shrimp data are obtained daily by Bureau reporting specialists
and recorded on individual landing reports that list the name of the vessel and the volume
and ex-vessel value of the catch by species, size, and area of capture. A schedule is pre-
pared for each vessel for each trip. These are forwarded to the Washington office, about 2
weeks after the end of the month in which the landings occurred. The data are machine pro-
cessed to provide the detailed statistical information required by those interested in the
shrimp fishery.

During recent years, there has been a trend toward obtaining catch data on a monthly

basis in sufficient detail to permit their direct use in the annual Statistical Digest. In the
States of Alabama and Mississippi, data on the catch by gear, water, and species are ob-

774-757 O-65—17

256 GULF FISHERIES

tained on a monthly basis and entered on punch cards from which are prepared the monthly
landing bulletins. The punch cards are then utilized to prepare the annual tabulations for
publication in Fishery Statistics of the United States. Considerably more detail on the catch
by waters and gear is available than is published in this report.

Operating units. Prepunched vessel cards containing the name of the vessel, the official
number, rig code, gross tons, length, and year built are furnished field reporters each year.
These cards areobtained from the Bureau of Customs and are checked out by field personnel.
Reporters interview the vessel captains to obtain number of crew, and number, type, and
quantity of gear utilized in each fishery. The numberof crew reported is the greatest number
of crewmen aboard the vessel for each gear operated at any one time. Number and quantity
of gear are represented by the greatest amount of gear the craft utilized at one time. The data
do not include gear ashore or carried aboard the vessel for replacement. Field reporters
maintain alistof the fishing vessels obtained from the State records to ensure completeness
in the operating unit survey. Machine tabulations of shrimp landings are utilized to obtain
the vessels fishing this species during the year. A vessel is reported once for each type of
gear fished in each State,

Data on crew and gear are recorded directly on the prepunched cards. (Data on all
craft of lessthan 5 net tons are classified as shore and boat craft, and a single card is pre-
pared for the total number of boats using each type of gear ineachcounty). The field entries
are punched and processed in the Region under contract by a service agency and the tabulations
are returned to each reporter who prepares the State operating unit tables. After review by
the Regional Supervisor, they are forwarded to the Washington Office.

Processing and Manufacturing. Data on the production of processed fishery and manufactured
products are obtained from individual firms, on forms designed for the collection of these
data. Much of the information on the pack of canned shrimp, oyster, and crab meat by can
size and number of cases is obtained and published each week in the New Orleans Market
News report. Subsequently, revisions are made, and a yearly annual total by firm is sub-
mitted to the Central Office for publication in the Canned Fishery Products bulletin. Infor-
mation on the production of fish meal, oil, and solubles is obtained each month for publica-
tion in monthly Fish Meal and Oil bulletins and in the annual report, Industrial Fishery
Products, Data on the monthly production of fish sticks and portions and breaded shrimp are
collected quarterly for publication in Fish Sticks and Portions and Breaded Shrimp. Packaged
fish and shellfish data are obtained onan annual basis from each firm, and summaries are pub-
lished in the annual Packaged Fishery Products bulletin. A summary of the production of all
processed fishery items, including shellfish, is contained in the Gulf States sectional annual
bulletin,

Data on freezings and holdings of fishery products are collected monthly on a special
form which is maiied at the end of the month to each cold storage warehouse in the Gulf States.
After auditing, the completed reports are returned to the New Orleans office. The schedules
are then mailed to the Washington Office where they are again reviewed before tabulation
and publication in monthly and annual frozen fishery products bulletins.

General, A considerable quantity of current fishery data are available in the daily report
issued by the New Orleans Fishery Market News Office. Persons interested in day-to-day
fluctuations should consult these reports. Those interested in seasonal fluctuations should
refer to the monthly landing bulletins. The Statistical Digest, Fishery Statistics of the
United States contains the most complete annual data. Information on the catch by waters
is tabulated and supplied to State and Federal laboratories along the Gulf Coast.

SECTION 7 - PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES ~

In 1963, commercial fishermen of the Pacific Coast States (Alaska, Washington, Oregon,
and California) caught 1.1 billion pounds of fish and shellfish worth $124 million. Landings
were down 9 million pounds and sold for $15 million less than in 1962. Species with the small-

er catches were salmon, halibut, and sardines. Total value declined principally because of
lower values of salmon, tuna, and halibut.

The Pacific Coast States accounted for 23 percent of the volume and 33 percent of the
value of the total U.S. catch. While the area was second only to the Gulf States in quantity, it
led all areas in value. Although California landings of 514 million pounds were the lowest
since 1932, they were 46 percent of the Pacific Coast total. Alaska was next with 392 million
pounds (35 percent), followed by Washington and Oregon with 150 and 61 million pounds,
respectively, accounting for the remaining 19 percent. California was alsothe leader in value
with $49 million (40 percent of the Pacific Coast total), Alaska was a close second with a
value of $46 million (37 percent). Washington and Oregon, with $21 and $8 million, respective-
ly, accounted for the remaining 23 percent.

Fishermen and vessels. In 1963, there were 33,612 fishermen on the Pacific Coast--1,015
more than in 1962. There were 4,791 vessels. of 5 net tons or more--205 over 1962. Most of
the increase was in the numbers of salmon purse seiners and trollers.

Processing. Processed fishery products on the Pacific Coast were worth $325 million in 1963--
down 32 million from 1962. California and Alaska had declines while Washington and Oregon
had slight increases. The principal cause of the overall decline was that smaller packs of
canned Alaska salmon and California tuna resulted in a lower total value.

High seas fishery. Fish taken on the high seas off the coast of foreign countries by Pacific
Coast fishermen totaled 283 million pounds--25 percent of the total catch for the four States
and 1.6 million pounds more than in 1962. This increase was accounted for principally by
improved bottomfish catches off the Canadian coast. Searching the ocean from the Bering Sea
to the waters off Peru, PacificCoast fishermen continued to range farther for their catch than
fishermenin any other areas. Also in 1963, Pacific Coast fishermen again entered the Atlantic
Ocean to fish for tuna off the Middle Atlantic and New England coasts.

Tuna. Tuna was 27 percent of the volume and 30 percent of the value of all Pacific Coast
fisheries in 1963. The catch of 297 million pounds was 3.5 million pounds more than in 1962.
The value was only $37.5 million compared with $42.6 million in 1962--a decline despite a
14.8-million-pound increase in albacore, the more expensive species. Skipjack landings
were up, while bluefin and yellowfin were down.

Unfavorable publicity from a few cans of contaminated tuna early in the year resulted
in a temporary setback in the increase in consumption of canned tuna.

In general, tuna prices declined after the adverse publicity. At the beginning of the
year, the price of yellowfin was $290 per ton, and skipjack, $250, but effective the latter part
of April, afterthe unfavorable publicity of contaminated tuna, the price was reduced $20 a ton
for each species. During early May, there were further reductions--yellowfin dropped to $250
and skipjack to $210 aton. Later in the month, prices again declined so that offers for yellow-
fin were down to $240 and skipjack, $200 a ton--the lowest ex-vessel price for tuna since
the Office of Price Administration ceiling in 1945. For the remainder of the year, yellowfin
prices fluctuated between $240 and $250 and skipjack, $190 and $207. Auctions, which had
been discontinued since early 1960, were reestablished at San Diego in mid-October in an
effort to boost prices. Tocounteract the decline, the industry accelerated canned tuna pro-
motion,

258

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

Albacore fishing along the Pacific Coast was the most successful segment of the tuna
fishery in 1963, andthe catch of 60.8 million pounds was 14.8 million pounds greater than in
the previous year. The California albacore season started on July 5 with ex-vessel prices of
$275 to $300 a ton in contrast to $400 a ton at the start of the 1962 season. By July 16, the
price was stable at about $300 a ton. On August 23, it advanced to $325 a ton and remained
at that level for the rest of the season. The 1963 average price of albacore was $318 a ton--
$12 atonless than in 1962 and $38 a tonlessthan in 1961. In the Pacific northwest, albacore
fishermen averaged $309 a ton fortheir catch--$26 a ton less than in the previous year. Sport
fishermen made the first California catches, from large schools of albacore about 100 miles
due west of San Diego. Fishermen were optimistic about an early season, butthe fish remained
scattered throughout July. Although catches were below normal at the outset, they increased
considerably in all areas during August. At the end of the month, large schools were off the
northern California coast. Vessels from Seattle, Wash., to San Diego, Calif., converged on
the area, and individual trollers reported catches of up to5 tons per day. Landings rose sharp-
ly in September to an alltime high for the month.

Albacore fishing in California continued good throughout most of October but fell off
as the month ended, and only small landings were made during Novemberand December. How-
ever, total landings were 48.7 million pounds--the third highest on record for the State. The
ex-vessel price advanced from an opening of $275 to $325 per ton during August, and this
price held during the remainder of the season.

Albacore landings in Oregon were 11.4 million pounds--up 2.4 million pounds over a
year earlier. The fish were in good supply off Oregon during August, when fishermen's prices
ranged from $275 to $300 per ton. Later in the season, plants on the Columbia River paid up
to $330 compared with a high of $340 per ton in 1962.

Albacore again failedto appear in abundance north of the Columbia River. Washington
landings were only 527,000 pounds-—a slight increase over the poor 1962 season,

The bluefin fishery started well with the appearance of this tuna off San Clemente and
Catalina Islands at the end of July. A sizeable run developed, and prospects appeared bright
for an excellent season. By the end of July, good catches were being made by purse seiners
off Guadalupe Island and Baja California. Seiners were returning to port after 3 to 5 days'
fishing with capacity, or near capacity, loads. The regularSan Pedro purse seining fleet, as
well as several converted seiners, fished profitably during August and September. Several
trips of over 100 tons were made in August, and a record bluefin trip of 245 tons was landed
by the converted seiner, Constitution, during the month,

California bluefin landings of 30.4 million pounds (the third highest on record) were
less than 1 million pounds below the peak landings of 1962. The value of the 1963 bluefin
catch was considerably below that of 1962, with an ex-vessel price of $230 per ton at the
beginning of the season, compared with $300 in 1962. The price was further reduced during
the season to $210 to $220, compared with $250 to $280 during 1962.

Receipts of tuna for canning in California tuna plants--domestic catch, transhipments,
and imports--totaled 182,600 tons--the lowest since 1952. The decrease was due to a 27,500
-ton decline in imports,

The corporate structure of several tuna companies changed during the year. Early in
1963, itwas announced that the H.J. Heinz Company, Pittsburgh, Pa., a major food packing
concern, had acquired Star Kist Foods, Inc., a large tuna packer with plants in California,
Puerto Rico, and American Samoa, In February, the Van Camp Seafood Company merged with
the Ralston-Purina Company, packers of cereal products and animal food. In midyear, C.H.B.
Foods of Pico Rivera, Calif., acquired the Franco-Italian Packing Company of Terminal Island.

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

Several large tuna vessels were added to the fleet in 1963. The SanJuan, an 845-gross-
ton converted military craft built in 1943, joined the fleet and made a record landing for a
U.S. fishing craft when it unloaded 1,025 tons of tuna at San Pedro in the fall.

The 803-gross-ton Caribbean--the newest and most modern tuna purse seiner built
during the year--had a number of innovations includinga double crow's nest, aligned fore and
aft, used by two mast men with ship's controls; an electric fuel pump for refueling the ship's
helicopter, which is housed atop the wheelhouse; and air-conditioned quarters for the crew.
This vessel operated primarily out of Puerto Rico for a West Coast firm; however, it did land
one trip in California.

Salmon. During 1963, the total catch of salmon on the Pacific Coast was 294.2 million pounds
valued at $49 million. This was 26 percent of the total Pacific Coast volume of all fish and
shellfish and 39 percent of the total value. Among the species of salmon, pinks were most
important, with 156.6 million pounds (worth over $18 million) landed in Alaska, Washington,
and Oregon--53 percent of the total PacificCoast salmon catch. The chinook catch was second
in value--$10.9 million--and the sockeye or red salmon, third--$10.3 million. Alaska led
the States with 223.1 million pounds (76 percent of the Pacific Coast salmon volume) and $31.3
million (64 percent of the total value).

The 1963 salmon catch was below that of 1962--down 6 percent in volume and 13 per-
cent in value. In Alaska, only kings and silvers were taken in larger quantity. The increase
in king salmon was in Southeastern Alaska, where trollers landed almost 1 million pounds more
than in the previous year. The catch of this species in Central and Western Alaska was less
than in 1962. Chum salmon landings were down in all three regions of Alaska for a total de-
cline of 21.9 million pounds.

The Alaska catch of pink salmon was 18.2 million pounds less than the 143.3 million
pounds taken in 1962. Landings were lower in Central andWestern Alaska but showed sur-
prising strength in Southeastern Alaska, where the catch was 24.3 million pounds higher than
in 1962.

The large Icy Strait pink salmon run of 1963 was notable for more thanits volume. The
fish were of fine quality, and the run was extended over alengthy period. Both the fishermen
and packers benefited, and considerable quantities of fish were transported to canneries in
other districts. At the peak of the run, daily seiner catches of as many as 20,000 fish were
common. Immediately preceding the onset of the big run, fishermen and cannery operators
had a short price dispute that halted canning operations for a few days.

During the height of the Icy Strait pink salmon run, the Alaska Department of Fish and
Game permitted fishing for 24 hours on alternate days. This move was designed, essentially,
to allow time to process all fish while they were in prime condition and to provide an oppor-
tunity for effective distribution of escapement during the run.

Red salmon landings were lower in all areas of Alaska compared with the previous
year. Bristol Bay, which depends almost entirely on red salmon, was declared a disaster
area by the Governor. The 218,000-case-pack was the lowest since 1897--the beginning of
salmon canning in Bristol Bay.

The disappointing run of red salmon in Bristol Bay in 1963 represented the first fore-
casting error inadecade ormore of biological predictions on the species. Investigation failed
to substantiate initial suspicion that Japanese operations on the high seas may have been res-
ponsible.

Silver salmon landings inAlaska were 17.6 million pounds in 1963--an increase of 2.3

= PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

million pounds over the previous year. The gain was spread over the Southeastern, Central,
and Western regions.

From the Fraser River system, a catch of slightly more than 1 million sockeye salmon
and 2 million pinks had been forecast for both United States and Canadian fishermen. Asa
result of a work stoppage by Canadian fishermen during the peak of the July sockeye run, how-
ever, United States fishermen were given additional fishing time to prevent overseeding of the
spawning beds by the excellentrun. Thus, UnitedStates fishermen caught over 1.3 million
sockeyes in convention waters, compared with over 600,000 by Canadian fishermen. The
catch could have been larger but United States fishermen were restricted to United States
waters, and a considerable part of the run escaped through Canadian waters during the work
stoppage.

During the October spawning period, sockeye suffered heavy losses from Columnaris
infection--some streams lost as much as 90 percent of the spawning run. The larger number
of spawners and the abnormally warm water were suggested as possible factors in precipitating
the epidemic.

The 1963 pink salmon catch in Washington was larger than expected, While the re-
turn of Fraser River pinks was somewhatless than had been forecast Puget Sound streams had
surprisingly large runs. Another unexpected development was the extent to which pinks were
taken in the troll fishery, which took about 3.0 million pounds more than in any recent year.
The United States--Canadian pink salmonrunwas twice as large as expected. United States
fishermen landed 4.3 million fish and the Canadians, 3.9 million.

Silver salmon landings in Washington and Oregon in 1963 decreased nearly 3 million
pounds. The Oregon troll fishery catch, which was up 40 percent from 1962, was more than
offset by the significantly smaller troll catch of Washington. The Columbia River silver salmon
catch increased slightly, but the gill net catch in the Puget Sound and along the coast was
less than half that of the previous year.

The 1963 landings of chinook salmon in Washington and Oregon increased slightly more
than 1 million pounds over the previous year. The Columbia River catch of chinook was 4.8
million pounds, down 16 percent from the 5.7 million pounds captured in 1962. The chinook
run in Puget Sound was one of the best. The Oregon troll fishery produced 1.6 million pounds
of king (chinook) salmon--more than twice that of the previous year. Landings of troll king
salmon in Washington also improved, totaling 2.9 million pounds compared with 2.4 million
in 1962. Chum salmon production of 3.1 million pounds in Washington was slightly improved
from the previous year, while the Oregon chum catch was negligible.

Total salmon and steelhead production by the Indian fisheries in Washington and Oregon
was 5.7 million pounds worth $1.2 million compared with 2.9 million pounds and nearly
$900,000 in 1962. In the Columbia River Indian fishery, considerable gear change was made
in 1963, with numerous Indians changing from dip nets to set gill nets. Salmon and steel-
head production by the Indian fishery of the Columbia River andits tributaries was over 690,000
pounds worth about $160,000 compared witha 119,000-pound-catch in 1962, worth $35,000.

The Puget Sound Indian fisheries also were more productive in 1963. The catch was
3.9 million pounds worth $604,000 compared with 1.8 million pounds worth $510,000 in 1962.
Pink salmon accounted for the gain. The late fall and winter set net catch of silver and chum
salmon was only half that of 1962.

The coastal Indian fishery in Washington also was productive; its salmon and steel-
head catch was 1,1 million pounds worth $404,000. The sockeye or blueback catch by coastal
Indians was 341,000 pounds--more than four times that of 1962. The main sockeye run usually
occurs in April or May when premium prices, sometimes as high as 75 cents a pound, are paid
the Indians,

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES ‘.

Fresh salmon prices in 1963 suffered from the 1962 carryover of frozen stocks. The
long established Fishermen's Cooperative Association Exchange Board for troll salmon was
abandoned in favor of “port prices," which apparently were set, to a great extent, by the larger
buyers. These prices proved to be quite uniform and steady throughout the season, In Wash-
ington, trollers received about 67 cents a pound, dressed weight, for large red kings (chinook)
and 30.5 cents for silvers compared with 74.6 and 35.1 cents during 1962.

Columbia River gill netters also took a cut in price, with chinooks averaging 32.6
cents a pound, round weight, compared with 38 cents in 1962.

Demand for Puget Sound sockeyes was strong following the shortage in Alaska, and
seiners and gill netters averaged 33 cents a pound, round weight--about the same as in 1962.
Anticipating the big pink run, Washington prices were scaled down, averaging about 12 cents
a pound, round weight, compared with 20 cents in 1962,

Canned salmon was the leading processed fishery product in Washington and Oregon,
with a pack of 639,000 standard cases worth $21 million.

Halibut. Halibut landings by U.S. fishermen on the Pacific Coast in 1963 were 45,569,000
pounds (round weight) valued at $6, 883, 000--down 15 percent in volume and 41 percent in value
compared with 1962. The Alaska catch of 29.9 million pounds valued at $4,161,000 was 66
percent of the total volume and 60 percent of the total value of the domestic Pacific Coast
halibut catch.

Contributing to the reduced landings in Alaska were a price disagreement and lower
ex-vessel prices, adverse weather, and fewer fish. Of these, the lower ex-vessel prices,
with the corresponding reduced effort, were believed to be the major cause of the decline,

A change in the North Pacific Treaty, which became effective when ratified by Canada
on May 9, 1963, permitted Japanese fishermen, for the first time, to take halibut in the eastern
Bering Sea triangular area. The triangle is roughly outlined by a line drawn from longitude
170° W. to the Pribilof Islands, to Unimak Pass, tothe Aleutian Chain, and along the Aleutian
Islands to longitude 170° W. The triangular-area catch limit of 11 million pounds (dressed
weight) set by the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission proved to be too optimistic,
even with the considerable effort exerted by the Japanese. The catch totaled 10.5 million
pounds, of which the Japanese took 3.9 million pounds. In May,when the grounds were offi-
cially opened to them, five Japanese longliners were in the triangle. These vessels landed
only 38,000 pounds in the first 3 days of fishing, but by June, the Asian halibut fleet on the
the Bering Sea grounds had grown to 6 freezing vessels and 75 fishing craft.

Area 2, from Willapa Bayto Cape Spencer, was closed on November 30, 1963, before
the catch limit of 28 million pounds (dressed weight) set by the International Pacific Halibut
Commission had been taken. A combination of factors was responsible for the reduced catch
of 25.8 million pounds--down almost 3 million pounds from the 1962 level. Although halibut
were less abundant, the limit could probably have been taken under more normal conditions.
Weather, price disagreements, and more attractive fisheries in other areas combined to keep
the Area 2 catch low. During the latter part of the season, sablefish were bringing from 2 to
3 cents a pound more than halibut, and many longliners left the halibut grounds and moved to the
deeper sablefish grounds. Awork stoppage by the Fishermen and Allied Workers Union in Bri-
tish Columbia restricted activity of the Canadian fleet late in the season. To further compli-
cate matters, the worst weather in Area 2 in many years kept much of both the United States
and Canadian fleets in port after the latter part of September. These factors, combined with
ex-vessel prices well below those in 1962, divertedmany of the smaller vessels, which make
up a large portion of the Area 2 fleet, to the salmon and albacore fisheries, both of which
Were more productive during 1963.

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

Landings of halibut bythe combined United States--Canadian fleets, in 1963, were 95
million pounds (round weight)--down 4.9 million pounds from the record 1962 catch. The de-
cline was largely offset by the Japanese catch in the Bering Sea. For the first time, Canadian
fishermen took the largest share of the United States-Canadian total--52 percent.

Halibut landings inAlaska by U.S. fishermen were 7 million pounds less than in 1962.
Most of the decline was in Ketchikan. Both United States and Canadian landings were heavy
at Central Alaska ports, where an effort was made to get as much of the Area 3B North halibut
catch as possible before the area was openedto Japanese fishermen. Seattle halibut landings
gained nearly 1 million pounds over 1962.

Early in the season, halibut moved slowly at the high price level set in 1962. The
large carryover of frozen stocks from the 1962 catch eventually caused prices to decline sharp-

ly.

Mackerel, From the beginning of the year, mackerel--particularly jack--was plentiful in
southern California waters, and nightly limits of 20 to 30 tons were imposed on the fleet.
Mackerel canning operations were halted in early June and were not resumed until the middle
of August. Meanwhile, the canneries were processing the backlog of tuna that had accumula-
ted because of a price dispute. Acatch limit of 20 to 30 tons per night remained in effect after
resumption of fishing on August 1; however, bad weather and lack of sales curtailed fishing
operations to some extent during the last 2 months of the year.

Sardines. The PacificCoastcatch of sardines in 1963, continuing a downward trend, declined
to a record low for the past half century. Landings of 7.1 million pounds were only one-half
of 1 percent of the record high landings of 1.5 billion pounds in 1936. The 1963 sardine season
opened incentral California onAugust 1, and in southern California on September 1, The bulk
of the catch was taken incidental tothe mackerel fishery, and very few loads of only sardines
were landed. The canned pack of 57,000 cases was the lowest since the sardine fishery be-
came prominent during World War I. Since anchovies seem to have replaced sardines in Cali-
fornia waters, ithas been suggested by members of the industry that an active anchovy fishery
might help restore the sardines and also foster a new industry. The California Fish and Game
Commission was petitioned to amend its law against reduction of fish to allow the reduction
of a specified tonnage of anchovies on a trial basis, but this was not granted.

Crabs, Landings of crabs in the Pacific Coast States in 1963 were 103.8 million pounds worth
$11.9 million--an increase of 36 percent in volume and 28 percent in value compared with
1962. Alaska led all other States with 90.8 million pounds worth $9.0 million--87 percent of
the volume and 75 percent of the value.

In Alaska, king crabs continued to account for most of the crab landings. During the
5 years 1959-63, king crab landings have increased an average of nearly 50 percent each year.
Landings were 79 million pounds in 1963--up 26 million pounds from 1962. Healthy market
conditions, considerable growth in the size of the fishing fleet, improved crab pot design,
and better knowledge of seasonal migrations have all contributed to the large increase in the
catch. Following an upward trend in consumption, canned king crab production rose 37 per-
cent and fresh and frozen production was up 65 percent,

Landings of Dungeness crabs in Alaska during the 1963 season were 12 million pounds--
an increase of 3 million pounds (34 percent) compared with 1962. Dueto reduced availability
of Dungeness crabs along the Oregon and California coast, the Alaska crab industry experi-
enced a strong demand for fresh and frozen crab meat. Prices offered for fresh crabs in the
shell or fresh crab meat were so strong that canning was virtually suspended, An important
development in the industry was the expanded use of air transportation for shipping crabs.
Large quantities of live Dungeness crabs were flown from Metlakatla, near Ketchikan, to Hono-
lulu, via Seattle. Air shipments of fresh cooked crab from Kodiak, Yakutat, and other coastal

263

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

points to Seattle also developed to a considerable degree. Despite record landings and good
prices, there were reports that several crab fishing vessels were planning to abandon the
fishery and convert to other forms of gear.

Crab production improved in Washington in 1963, totaling 6.7 million pounds--up 1.3
million pounds from the previous year. A sharp gain in Puget Sound crab catches accounted
for most of the increase. However, the Coastal and Columbia River districts also had size-
able gains.

The ocean crab fishery was poor in Oregon. The catch was only 4.2 million pounds--
down 1.6 million pounds from 1962. In previous years, the closed season for crabs in northern
Oregon and Washington extended until January 1, but a new Oregon regulation permitted crab
fishing along the Oregon coast during December 1963. To protect their fishing interests,
Washington also permitted crabbers to operate during December.

Crabs were abundant off the Columbia River in December, and a large fleet of crab
boats congregated there, taking more thanone-half the 1963 Oregon-Columbia River crab
landings. The Washington coastal crab price averaged 22.6 cents per pound in 1963--up 2.6
cents from 1962. A small quantity of rock crabs was taken in California.

In California, Dungeness crablandings were 1,952,000 pounds worth $688,000. This
was the lowest catch since 1937, Compared with 1962, the volume declined 39 percent and
the value, 21 percent. Because of the scarcity of crabs, the average price for live crabs rose
from 27 cents per pound in 1962 to 35 cents in 1963.

Oysters. In 1963, landings of oysters on the Pacific Coast were 9.8 million pounds of meats
worth $2.5 million--a decline of 9 percentin volume and 6 percent in value compared with the
previous year, Washington led all other States in 1963 landings, with 8.1 million pounds
worth $2.1 million--a decline of 9 percent in volume and 2 percent in value.

The supply of oysters in Willapa Harbor was seriously affected by severe wind storms
that damaged the oyster beds late in 1962. Also relatively few seed oysters had been planted
during the previous 4 years. There have been no significant natural sets in Washington since
1958, and purchases of Japanese oyster seed have declined because of increasing costs and
high mortality when the oysters are about 3 years old. A considerable amount of oyster seed
was obtained from British Columbia during 1963.

Market demand for fresh oysters has been good, but Japanese canned oyster imports
have cut deeply into the market for domestically canned oysters.

Foreign fishing activities, The Japanese fishing fleet operating in the general Alaska area in
1963 totaled over 340 vessels consisting of 22 factory ships, 252 catcher vessels, 21 whale
killers, 3 stern trawlers, 3 fishery patrol vessels, 1 fishery training ship, and more than 40
support vessels such as tankers, refrigerated fish transports, and cargo supply ships. In-
cluding the salmon fleet, which operated west of the 175th parallel, the entire Japanese fishing
strength in the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska was estimated at about 730 vessels. The
Japanese salmon fleet--11 factory ships, 369 catcher vessels, and 4 support vessels--en-
tered the Bering Sea briefly in June and July, but did not fish farther east than longitude 180° .

The Russian fishing fleet in the Bering Sea, North Pacific, and the Gulf of Alaska in
1963 had about 380 vessels. Those identified by type were 50 refrigerated fish transports or
cargo vessels, 6 combination passenger-cargo vessels, 42 whale killer vessels, 19 large re-
frigerated stern trawlers, 20 medium refrigerated trawlers, 17 tankers, 4research vessels, and
178 medium trawlers.

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

Whales. A total of 259 whales was taken by six catcher vessels operating from two whaling
stations in the SanFrancisco Bay area and one in Oregon, This was an increase of 11 whales
over the 1962 total. The production of whale meat, meal, and oil was 7.7 million pounds--
down 2.1 million pounds from 1962. The value of whale praducts was $544,000--a drop of
$162,000. The lower value was the result of taking a large number of the less valuable
species, suchas the sperm whale, which yields more oil and less meat. One of the processing
firms installed a whale butchering machine called the "whale breaker", which breaks bones,
shells, and cartilage, thus reducing butchering labor by 50 percent.

LANDINGS BY HALIBUT FLEET AT SEATTLE, WASHINGTON

Halibut landings at Seattle in 1963 totaled 10.5 million pounds valued at $2.4 million.

Compared with 1962, this was an increase of 538,000 pounds (5 percent) in volume but a
decline of $803,000 (25 percent) in value.

Landings of halibut from fishing grounds west of Cape Spencer (8.2 million pounds)
were about the same as in the previous year, while those from south of Cape Spencer (2.3
million pounds) were up nearly 500,000 pounds. Landings of sablefish from grounds off Cape
Spencer (1.3 million pounds) showed a small decline from 1962.

The following tables containa summary of the landings of dressed halibut and sable-
fish at Seattle by the U.S. halibut fleet. These data are not directly comparable with the
State and sectional tabulations, since the weights in those tables represent the round weight
of fish landed.

WHALING

During the 1963 season, three whaling stations operated--the same as in 1962. The
three companies were the Del Monte and the Golden Gate Fishing Companies of Richmond,
Calif., and Bioproducts, Inc., of Warrenton, Oreg. The California stations operated the same
five catcher vessels as in the previous year--Lynnann and Sioux City for the Golden Gate
Fishing Company and Dennis Gayle, Donna Mae, and Allen Cody for the Del Monte Company. .
At the Oregon station, Tom and Al replaced the catcher boat used in 1962.

In 1963, the catch of whales was 259--11 more than in the previous year. The catch
of 97 sei whales was 75 more than in 1962 and the largest number captured since the fishery
was reactivated in 1956. Fifty-five humpback whales were taken in 1963--16 more than in
the previous year but 18 less than the 1959-63 average of 73. The catch of 77 sperm whales
was 17 morethan in 1962 and 22 more than the 1959-63 average. The valuable fin whale fish-
ery, however, declined from 124 taken in 1962 to 21 in 1963.

The open season remained the same--April 1 to November 30, inclusive, for sperm
whales and April 16 to October 15, inclusive, for other whales.

The whale catch in 1963 was processed into 2.6 million pounds of meal, nearly 2.2 mil-
lion pounds of oil, and 2.9 million pounds of meat (for use as canned or frozen animal food). In
1963, for the first time, there was a small production (14,000 pounds) of whale solubles. At
the producer's level the value ofall products was $544,000. Compared with 1962, the volume
declined 21 percent and the value, 23 percent.

FUR SEAL INDUSTRY OF THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS

Fur sealing operations on the Pribilof Islands produced 85,254 commercial sealskins
during 1963--an increase of 7,339 skins above the 1952 harvest. The 42,278 take of male
seals was belowaverage as a result of lowerabundance of the normally predominant 3-year-
oldclass. Three-year-old seals normally outnumber 4-year-olds two toone, butin 1963, these
two year-classes each comprised 45 percent of the total male harvest. The 48-3/4-inch
maximum length was waived shortly after the season started, and all available males were
taken that had not yet developed mature bull characteristics. This produced an additional
3,150 pelts beyond the previous size limit. The cropping of these larger animals revealed
previously unknown extremes of size variation in the 4- and 5-year-age-groups; many bachelor
seals over 49 inches long were found to be no older than those taken within the previously
acceptable sizerange. Taking the larger sizes was justifled by the biological surplus of idle
bulls.

The kill of females for herd reduction purposes totaled 43,952 animals, of which
15,299 were immatures, whose pelts are dressed, dyed, machined and finished the sameas
males; while the remainder were mature cows, about half of which were suitable for an alter-
nate process of close shearing. Only 976 female pelts were rejected because of poor quality.
None were lost because of lack of manpower or plant capacity.

For the first time in history, Government employees supervised and performed the
blubbering and curing of the skins. This wasnecessitated by cancellation ofthe 40-year-old
processing contract of the Fouke Fur Company. While the rate of production was somewhat
below that of previous years, workmanship of the largely inexperienced crew was judged by
experts to be at least equal and often superior. As in previous years, killing and skinning
was performed mostly by Pribilof residents and curing by native labor imported from Aleutian
villages. The regular male sealing season extended from July 2 through August 5, while the
special female killing season lasted from August 13 through September 12.

Seal pup mortality on the rookeries, an indicator of subsequent survival at sea, was
checked in mid-August. Deaths on St. Paul Island were calculated to be 34,228, while
St. George Island totaled 5,011. Both are well below the 1962 counts and indicate an im-
proving trend in the subsequent return of 3-year-old seals.

One firm operating under a 2-year agreement was again active on St. Paul Island
processing seal carcasses. An initial shipment of 150 tons of frozen seal meat and 11 tons
of livers found a ready market as mink feed and for vitamin extraction, respectively. Asecond
shipment was beset with many delays, and difficulty was experienced in marketing products
that arrived in poorcondition. Aside from this limited operation, seal carcasses were dumped
on remote grounds as in the previous year.

DISTRIBUTION OF TAKE OF SEALSKINS, 1963

The fur seal treaty specifies that Canada and Japan are to receive 15 percent of each
of the skins takenonthe PribilofIslands. To insure an impartial selection of Se a
15 percent, Canada made a random choice of numbers 4, 10}, and) TA; wwiile Japan ie
numbers 3, 7, and 15 out of each series of 20 barrels of sealskins. This resulted in the
following allocation of skins to the United States, Canada, and Japan:

As a result of taking oversize male pelts suitable for processing, it was necessary to
reduce the standard packing count to 80 skins per barrel from the 85 used when only the smaller
animals were taken. A total of 273 barrels of blubber was also salted and barreled for subse-
quent extraction of oil for tanning sealskins.

SALE OF SEALSKINS, 1963

Two public and four special sealskin auctions were held in Greenville, S. C., in 1963.
A total of 61,965 skins was sold for the account of the U. S. Government. Gross receipts for
the six auctions held during calendar year 1963 yielded $6,005,835. The offerings consisted
of 46,784 conventionally processed skins which yielded $5,406,985 and 15,181 female skins
which sold for $598,850. The latter included 14,140 LAKODA sheared skins which brought

$585,022 and 1,041 natural sheared skins which yielded $13,826. LAKODA skins averaged
$41.37 compared with $115.57 for conventionally processed skins.

SECTION 8 - GREAT LAKES FISHERIES =

In 1963, United States and Canadian commercial fishermen in the five Great Lakes,
Lake St. Clair, andthe International Lakes of northern Minnesota produced 106 million pounds
of fish--a decrease of more than 17 millionpounds compared with 1962. Only three species
showed an appreciable increase: alewives, up nearly 700,000 pounds; sheepshead, 1.0 million
pounds; and yellow pike, 1.8 million pounds. Major decreases were noted for carp, 1.1
million pounds; chubs, 3.9; lake herring, 1.8; smelt, 8.2 million pounds; tullibee, 600,000
pounds; white bass, 700,000 pounds; and yellow perch, 3.7 million pounds.

Production in Canadian waters dropped almost 11 million pounds because of a 10-
million-pound decline in Lake Erie, where smelt and yellow perch landings were down 8.6 and
2.9 million pounds, respectively. Canadian Lake Erie yellow pike catches of 1,875,000 pounds
were 560 percent greater than in 1962. Of the four Great Lakes fished by Canadians, only
Lake Ontario showed an increase in landings. In Lake Huron, the catch decreased 588,000
pounds, chiefly because of a decline in the chubproduction. Smaller catches of lake herring
accounted for the Canadian decrease in Lake Superior landings.

The commercial catch in the U.S. waters of the Great Lakes and International Lakes
was 59 million pounds--10 percent less than in 1962 and the lowest yield since 1913. The
value of the U.S. catch decreased $244,000 (4 percent) compared with 1962. The State of
Michigan was the largest producer with 20.3 million pounds, followed by Wisconsin, 16.9;
Ohio, 14.2; Minnesota, 5.3; and Pennsylvania, 1.4 million pounds. New York, Indiana,
and Illinois accounted for the remainder. The lakes, in orderof production, were: Michigan,
21.0; Erie, 17.2; Superior, 12.1; Huron, 5.2; International Lakes of Minnesota, 3.2; St.
Clair, 1.0; and Ontario, 233,000 pounds.

Fishermen and vessels. In 1963, 2,704 fishermen, 396 vessels of 5 net tons and over, and
1,251 other craft were employed in the U.S. commercial fisheries of the Great Lakes. Com-
pared with 1962, this was a decrease of 386 fishermen, 28 vessels, and 76 other craft.
Fishermen on vessels averaged 101 man-days of fishing, while in 1962, the average was 106
days. Fishermen days of operation on vessels decreased from 124,323 in 1962 to 90,674 in
1963, while the number of vessel-days fished dropped from 42,905 to 38,373. Fishermen on
boats and shore fished 80,314 man-days in 1963 and 86,552 man-days in 1962. Motor boat
operations totaled 43,356 boat-days in 1963, compared with 46,519 in 1962.

Fishing effort. The total fishing effort by U.S. Great Lakes fishermen in 1963 was less than in
1962 fornearly all gears. Only three gears showed an increased use: 1-1/4- to 2-inchmesh
gill net lifts increased 40,000 linear yards; 7-1/8- to 14-inch mesh gill net lifts increased
336,000 linear yards; and otter trawl operations increased 1,361 hours, even though only 14

"vessels operated--2 less thanin 1962. The total lifts for 2-1/8- to 3-7/8-inch mesh gillnets
decreased 15.6 million linear yards compared with 1962. Other decreases noted were: 4-to
7-inch mesh gill nets, down 12.6 million linear yard-lifts; trapnets, down 15,799 lifts; set line
hooks, down 2,383,000 hook-lifts; poundnets, down2, 045 lifts; fyke and hoopnets, down 693
lifts; and haul seines, down 518,000 linear yard-hauls.

Weather. A severe freeze in the Great Lakes area in February and March curtailed fishing.
The Weather Bureau reported that Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, and Ontario were com-
pletely frozen overinFebruary. This was the severest winter recorded in the area since 1936.

Species by lake. Alewives, chubs, and yellow perch landings accounted for 84 percent of the
1963 production from Lake Michigan. Catches of alewives (5.4 million pounds) and yellow
perch, (4.9 million pounds) increased 14 and 20 percent, respectively, while chub landings
(7.5 million pounds) decreased 33 percent. Total production for the lake was 2.5 million
pounds less than in 1962.

s GREAT LAKES FISHERIES

Lake Erie landings in 1963 were 2.4 million pounds less than the preceding year. Carp
landings decreased 1.4 million pounds, and yellow perch, 1.7 million pounds, while sheeps-
head catches were up 603,000 pounds. U.S. fishermen caught 367,000 pounds more yellow
pike in 1963 thanin 1962, anincrease of 85 percent; however, the total catch was only 800,000
pounds compared with an average of 3.6 million pounds during 1953-62. Production from Lake
Huron decreased 674,000 pounds compared with 1962. Catches of whitefish, chubs, and
suckers declined, while yellow perch landings increased.

Lake Superior landings decreased 477,000 pounds compared with 1962. While chub
and smelt increased over 500,000 pounds each, lake herring production declined 1.4 million
pounds. Smallercatches of tullibee accounted for the decrease inthe landings from the Inter-
national Lakes of Minnesota.

Lake Ontario landings of 233,000 pounds were the same as in 1962,

Sea lamprey control. During 1963, the catch of adult sea lampreys continued to be low at the
26 accessment barriers in streams along the south shore of Lake Superior. The number of
spawning-run lamprey taken (11,117) was higher than the previous year, but was 83 percent
lessthan in 1961, Twenty-six streams along the south shore of Lake Superior and 22 tributaries
of Lake Michigan were treated with a selective lampricide. In addition, 187 streams were
surveyed in the continuing surveillance of the treated and potential lamprey-producing streams.

Under the coordination of the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, the United States and
Canada planted 2,310,748 fingerling and yearling lake trout in Lake Superior. Assessment of
lake trout populations showed that the average size and abundance of this species were in-
creasing.

Research. In the latter part of 1963, seven deaths occurred in Michigan, Tennessee, and
Alabama from type E botulism poisoning, attributed to eating contaminated smoked whitefish
and chubs. Because of the botulism poisonings, 1.6 million pounds of chubs foruse as smoked
fish for human consumption could not be sold and were held in freezers. Undersection 4b of
Public Law 88-309, "The Commercial Fisheries Research and Development Act of 1964", holders
of these frozen chubs were paid to remove these fish from human food channels. Theresulting
publicity had a disastrous effect on the commercial fishing industry in the Great Lakes area.
Smoked fish production virtually stopped, and consumer misunderstanding of the smoked fish
warning released by the U.S. Foodand Drug Administration (FDA) hada serious effect on fresh
and frozenfish sales as well. A group of Bureau technologists met in Ann Arbor and prepared
an immediate and iong-range program to revive the industry. Studies were made to evaluate
product quality as affected by interim processing guidelines provided by FDA and States con-
cerned with the subject.

In 1963, four vessels of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries operated on the Great
Lakes, collecting data on environment, growth, distribution, abundance, and other factors
that influence fish stocks and conducting exploratory and gear research.

In October, a contract for $1,308,830 was issued for construction of a new Bureau
laboratory at Ann Arbor, Mich. When completed in 1965, the laboratory will house Bureau re-
search operations and the supporting statistical unit.

Other information, Condensed summary data onthe catch of the Great Lakes fisheries appear-
ing on the following pages have been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No.
3624, Seasonal variations in the catch of fish landed in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ohio
can be ascertained from monthly landings bulletins issued currently in cooperation with the
fishery department of these States. Additional specific data on many aspects of the Great
Lakes fisheries may be found in the daily, monthly, and annual reports published by the
Bureau's Fishery Market News Service office in Chicago, Ill.

SECTION 9 - MISSISSIPPI RIVER FISHERIES

A complete survey of the Mississippi River andits tributaries was made for 1963.
The commercial catch of fish and shellfish was 79.8 million pounds valued at $7.4
million. Compared with 1962, this was an increase of 10.5 million pounds and $878,000.
Largely accountable for the increase in volume and value were greater landings of catfish
and bullheads, sheepshead, and mussel shells--up 2.4, 3.2 and 4.8 million pounds,
respectively. Buffalofish, carp, catfish and bullheads, and mussel shells accounted for
85 percent of the total volume and 87 percent of the total value. The Mississippi River
and Tennessee River were the leading producing waters in 1963, accounting for 51 million
pounds (64 percent) of the total catch.

Condensed summary data on the operating units and catch by States of the Mis-
sissippi River fisheries appearing on the following pages have been previously published
in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3726.

The following organizations assisted in collecting the data appearing in this
section: Alabama Department of Conservation, Division of Game and Fish; Arkansas
Game and Fish Commission; Illinois Department of Conservation; Indiana Department of
Conservation; Iowa State Conservation Commission; Kansas Forestry, Fish and Game
Commission; Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources; Louisiana Wild Life
and Fisheries Commission; Minnesota Department of Conservation; Mississippi Game
and Fish Commission; Missouri State Conservation Commission; Montana State Fish and
Game Commission; Nebraska Game, Forestation and Parks Commission; North Dakota
State Game and Fish Department; Oklahoma Game and Fish Department; South Dakota
Department of Game, Fish and Parks; Tennessee Game and Fish Commission; Texas Game
and Fish Commission; Wisconsin Conservation Department, Wyoming Game and Fish
Commission; and the Tennessee Valley Authority, Fish and Game Branch.

SECTION 10 - HAWAII FISHERIES

The 1963 landings of commercially caught fish and shellfish at ports in the State of
Hawaii were 11.7 million pounds worth $2.7 million to the fishermen. Compared with 1962
this catch was a decrease of 1.4 million pounds and $140,700--due largely to reduced skip-
jack landings, which were 1.3 million pounds less. The catch of bigeye tuna decreased
nearly 300,000 pounds and bigeye scad decreased almost 70,000 pounds. Species showing
increases were striped marlin, dolphin, amberjack, pink snapper, and little tuna.

Since 1959, the Bureau's Biological Laboratory in Honolulu has used a temperature
index to predict conditions in the ocean environment that affect the skipjack fishery. Early
in the year, a prediction was released indicating that the availability of skipjack would be
better than average. Although the annual catch per boat was above average, the total land-
ings of skipjack were slightly less than had been predicted. The reduced landings were
attributed to the occurrence of waters unfavorable to skipjack around the Islands during the
fishing season.

Uncertainties in predicting the catch have been caused by lack of information on the
processes and forces that produce the seasonal and long-term changes in the ocean environ-
ment near Hawaii. To overcome this deficiency, the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries has
initiated the Trade Wind Zone Oceanographic Program. Seasonal and long-term changes in
the distribution of temperature and salinity will be studied in terms of the currents, the
processes of heating and cooling, and the evaporation and precipitation at the sea surface.
The knowledge gained should permit more reliable prediction of fishing conditions in Hawaii.
The Bureau's new research vessel, the Townsend Cromwell, is expected to devote most of
her time to this important program.

Fishery products were landed at sixof the eightislands thatformthe State of Hawaii.
Oahu led the islands in landings with 8.7 million pounds, ornearly 75 percent of the total.
The Island of Hawaii was next with 1.6 million pounds, followed by Maui with 1.2 million
pounds. The remainder of the catch was landed at ports in the islands of Molokai, Kauai,
and Lanai. Tuna (albacore, bigeye, bluefin, little, skipjack, and yellowfin) accounted for
81 percent of the quantity and 66 percent of the value of all fishery products landed in Hawaii.
The 1963 catch was taken by 820 fishermen. Fishing craft operated during the year included
56 vessels of 5 net tons and over, 360 motor boats, and 23 other boats.

The data in this section were assembled and prepared for publication by the Bureau's
area office, Honolulu, Hawaii, largely from information collected by the Hawaii Department
of Land and Natural Resources, Division of Fish and Game.

The following tables contain summarized and detailed information on the 1963 opera-
ting units and catch by islands of the State of Hawaii. Condensed summary data on the
operating units and catch of Hawaii, appearing on the following pages, have been published
previously in Current Fishery Statistics No. 3601.

SECTION 11 - PUERTO RICO FISHERIES “”

The catch for Puerto Rico has not been shown previously in Fishery Statistics of the
United States, and is not included in any of the U.S. catch tables.

The catch in 1963 totaled 46.3 million pounds valued at nearly $5.7 million to
fishermen. This consisted of tuna landings of 37.0 million pounds ($3.7 million) and the
other fisheries catch of 9.3 million pounds (nearly $2.0 million). The following tables pre-
sent available data on annual landings for the period 1953-63. The catch by local fishermen
was reported by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Landings of
tuna were obtained by the Bureau.

The catch by local fishermen, consisting principally of marine fish, increased from
5.3 million pounds in 1953 to about 9.3 million pounds in 1963. Fishermen utilized various
gear, consisting principally of gill nets, haul seines, hooks (hand, troll and long or set
lines), cast nets, fish pots, and weirs.

The tuna fisheries got underway with the establishment of a cannery in 1953. An
additional cannery began operations in 1960 and by 1963, 4 plants were in operation. Tuna
landings increased from nearly 2.7 million pounds in 1953 to 37.0 million pounds in 1963.
Until 1962, the catch was taken entirely from the Pacific Ocean. The total U.S. catch of
tuna landéd in Puerto Rico in 1962 and 1963 included significant quantities from the Atlantic
Ocean, 9 percent and 13 percent, respectively.

SECTION 12
REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

There are presented in this Section of the Digest complete data on the catch of certain ma-
jor species of fish and shellfish taken on a commercial scale in the United States. Additional
information is presented on the operating units engaged in the menhaden purse seine, salmon
troll, the shrimp and fish otter trawl, and the tuna fisheries. Although the data on catch are in-
cluded in the detailed catch tables of the various States, they have been repeated in individual
fishery tables in this portion of the report to provide readers with a single source of catch data
for cod, haddock, halibut, Pacific mackerel, jack mackerel, menhaden, Atlantic ocean perch,
Pacific sardines, salmon, tuna, oysters, clams, crabs, and shrimp. Most of the above species
are taken by several types of fishing gear. Because of this, the casual reader of the Digest
often experiences difficulty in locating complete data on the catch of the species in individual
State catch tables. The information contained in this Section includes the volume and value of
the catch by individual types of gear and by States and districts.

U. S. COD FISHERY

During 1963, U.S. fishermen landed 48.5 million pounds of cod valued at $3.5
million--a decrease of 1.5 million pounds but an increase of $3,000, compared with the pre-
vious year.

Otter trawls accounted for 85 percent of the catch; lines, 12 percent; and gill nets, 2
percent. The remaining 1 percent was taken in pound nets, floating traps, pots and traps,
and dredges.

Landings at Massachusetts ports (37 million pounds) accounted for 77 percent of the
totalcatch. The State of Washington was second with 6.3 million pounds, followed by Maine,
2 million and New Jersey, 1 million pounds. The remaining catch was landed in eight other
Atlantic and Pacific Coast States.

ATLANTIC COAST HADDOCK FISHERY

The 1963 commercial catch of haddock totaled nearly 124 million pounds valued at
$11.7 million. Compared with the previous year, this was adecrease of 10.3 million pounds,
but an increase of $792,000. The average price paid for haddock increased from 8.1 cents per
pound in 1962 to 9.4 cents in 1963.

Haddock landings at Massachusetts ports, which accounted for 98 percent of the catch,

totaled 120.9 million pounds--8 percent less than in the previous year,

The catch by otter

trawls was 98 percent of the landings, while the remaining 2 percent was taken by gill nets,
lines, and dredges,

Almost 87 percent of the catch was taken from waters off New England--mainly on

Georges South Channel and eastern Massachusetts banks.

REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

PACIFIC COAST HALIBUT FISHERY

Halibut landings by the combined United States and Canadian fleets in 1963 totaled
71.4 million pounds (landed weight)--3.7 million pounds less than the record catch taken the
previous year. U.S. fishermen accounted for 34.3 million pounds (48 percent) of the total
and received nearly $7 million for their catch--$4.7 million less than in 1962. The U.S.
halibut fleet operating out of Pacific Coast ports numbered 319 vessels--10 less thanin 1962.
Canadian fishermen took a record 37.1 million pounds, 2.5 million pounds more than the

previous year. Several large, new vessels were added to the Canadian fleet which contributed
to the increase.

The catch limit of 28 million pounds set by the International Pacific Halibut Commission
for Area 2 was unchanged from 1962. The catch limit for Area 3A, however, was increased to
34 million pounds, and a limit of 11 million pounds was set, for the first time, in Area 3B,
North Triangle in the BeringSea. There was no catch limitimposed in Area 1 and Area 3B out-
side the North Triangle. In Area 2, the scarcity of halibut soon caused several vessels to
change to other fisheries. As a result, the catchwas 2.2 million pounds under the established
quota (for Area 2) despite extension of the season to November 30 (for a total of 205 days).

Data on the landings of halibut in the following tables represent the dressed weight
of fish, i. e., the weight by which the quota is determined. The dressed weight of halibut
can be converted to round weight by multiplying by 1.33. Halibut landed in Canada by
vessels of U.S. registry is credited to Alaska.

ATLANTIC OCEAN PERCH FISHERY

The 1963 catch of Atlantic ocean perch was 108.3 million pounds valued at $5.1
million--a decline of 15.7 million pounds (13 percent) and $76,000 (2 percent) compared with
1962.

Maine and Massachusetts otter trawlers accounted for almost the entire catch, while
only a negligible amount was taken by longlines. Maine landings of 64 million pounds valued
at $3 million accounted for 59 percent of the volume and 57 percent of the value.

Of the total catch, 51.3 million pounds (47 percent) were taken from the Nova Scotia
banks. The Grand Bank was next with 26.7 million pounds (25 percent), followed by the New
England coast, 19.6 million pounds (18 percent); and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, 10.7 million
pounds (10 percent).

REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

PACIFIC COAST SALMON FISHERY

The Pacific Coast salmon catch amounted to 294.2 million pounds, valued at $49 million
during 1963. The catch represented 26 percent of the volume and 39 percent of the value of
the total Pacific Coast commercial catch. Pink salmon were landed in larger quantity than any
other species of salmon, accounting for 156.6 millionpounds. A surprising development was
the extent to whichthis species was taken in the troll fishery, accounting for about 3 million
pounds more than in anyrecent year. Of significant importance was the disappointing run of
red salmon in Bristol Bay, and the unusually large run of pinks in the PugetSound District of
Washington and thelIcy Straits of Alaska. A price disagreement among Canadian fishermen at
a time when the sockeye run was in full swing on the FraserRiverresulted in the United States
fishermen being alloted an additional quantity of fish to prevent overseeding of the spawning
grounds. Purse seines, the most important gear used in taking salmon, accounted for 183.5
million pounds (62 percent) of the total catch. Gill nets were next with 73.4 million pounds
(25 percent). The remainder was taken by lines, floating traps, reef nets, pound nets, dip
nets, haul seines, and fish wheels.

PACIFIC COAST SARDINE FISHERY

Landings of sardines at California ports in 19653 totaled over 7 million pounds--8.2
million pounds (54 percent) less than the previous year and the lowest catch since 1915. Few
sardines appeared and it seemed possible that the constantly increasing number of anchovies
had almost eliminated sardines in the competition for food.

The entire sardine catch was taken with purse seines. The San Pedro district accounted
for 75 percent of the landings; Santa Barbara, 19 percent; and Monterey, 6 percent.

The 1963 sardine fishery opened August 1 in central California and September 1 in
Southern California. As in 1961 and 1962, the State legislature extended the sardine fishing
season 2 months to permit taking sardines in January and February.

MACKEREL FISHERIES OF THE PACIFIC COAST

Landings of jack mackerel totaled 95.8 million pounds in 1963--an increase of 5.5
million pounds (6 percent) compared with the previous year, while those of Pacific mackerel
amounted to 40.2 million pounds-~a decline of 8.3 million pounds (17 percent). The combined
mackerel catch (136 million pounds, valued at nearly $3 million) was about 3 million pounds
less than in the previous year; while there was little change in value. As in former years,
most of the catch of jack mackerel (91 percent) and Pacific mackerel (94 percent) was landed
in the San Pedro district of California. Purse seines and lamparanets were the principal gear
used in this fishery. Mackerel were abundant during most of the year, and a much larger
catch could have been made had there been a market for the fish.

PACIFIC TUNA FISHERY

The 1963 domestic catch of tuna landed at Pacific Coast and Hawaii ports totaled 306.9
million pounds valued at $39.2 million--an increase of 2 million pounds (1 percent) but a
decline of $5.4 million (12 percent) compared with the previous year. The reduced value of
the 1963 tuna catch resulted principally from ex-vessel price disputes and from a general price
decline which followed adverse publicity when a few cans of contaminated tuna were marketed
early in the year.

Albacore landings of 60.8 million pounds, second only to the record catch of 1950,
were nearly 15 millionpounds more thanin 1962. This gain, however, was offset by a yellowfin
production (110 million pounds) which declined 14.5 million pounds and bluefin landings (31.3
million pounds) which were down 1.1 millionpounds. Skipjack landings totaling 104.7 million
pounds increased 2.6 million pounds over the previous year.

Conversion of the clipper fleet in California to purse seiners had almost been completed
in 1963. Several new large tuna vessels were added to the fleet during the year, but most of
these craft landed their catch in Puerto Rico. One of the vessels, the Nautilus, an 811-gross-
ton converted military craft, landed 790 tons of tuna at San Pedro, Calif., in the fall of 1963,

a record catch for one fishing trip.

REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

U. S. MENHADEN FISHERY

U.S. mennaden landings totaled 1.8 billion pounds in 1953--37 percent of the total
U.S. production of all species. The catch declined 532 million pounds compared with the
record 1962 landings.

Of the total, 53 percent was landed in the Gulf of Mexico; 21, in the Middle Atlantic
States; 14, in the Chesapeake States; and 12 percent in the SouthAtlantic States, Less than
1/2 of 1 percent was taken in the New England States.

Purse seines accounted for 97 percentofthe 1963 catch. Theremainder was taken by
pound nets, haul seines, gill nets, fyke and hoop nets, trammel nets, floating traps, and

weirs.

During 1963, a total of 3,140 fishermen, 179 vessels, 362 motor boats, and 62 other
boats engaged in the menhaden purse seine fishery.

U. S. CLAM FISHERY

The 1963 clam fishery produced a record 63.4 million pounds of meats valued at $14.2
million--an increase of 9.2 million pounds and $2.4 million compared with 1962, the former
record year. Surf clams, landed principally in New Jersey, accounted for 61 percent of the
catch; hard clams, 23 percent; and soft clams, 15 percent. The remainderconsisted of ocean
quahogs, razor, and mixedclams. The Middle Atlantic led all otherareas with 72 percent of
catch. The Chesapeake area accounted for 15 percent, New England, 11 percent, and the
South Atlantic, Gulf, Pacific states, and Hawaii, the remaining 2 percent.

Clam dredges took 49.5 million pounds (78 percent); tongs, 5.9 million (9 percent),
and rakes 3.9 million (6 percent). The remainder of the catch was taken with hoes, forks,
shovels, or gathered by hand.

In Section 14 of this Digest, under the heading “Conversion Factors", there is a
table which gives the average State yield per U.S. standard bushel for the clams taken on the
Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. Supplementary shellfish tables appear after the summary tables for
each Atlantic and Gulf Regional section.

The U. S. catchof crabs in 1963 totaled a record 252.3 million pounds valued at $21.4
million--a gain of 18 million pounds (8 percent) and $3 million (14 percent) compared with 1962.

The Pacific Coast States led in volume with 103.8 million pounds (41 percent) followed
by the Chesapeake States with 66.1 million pounds (26 percent), The South Atlantic States
accounted for 51 million pounds (20 percent) and the GulfStates, 27.5 million pounds (11 per-
cent). The remainder was landed in the New England and Middle Atlantic States and Hawaii.

In 1963, landings of Alaska king crabs totaled a record 78.7 million pounds--26 million
pounds more than in 1962. Hardandsoft blue crab landings of 145.3 million pounds were 10
million pounds below the record 1962 catch. Dungeness crablandings (24.9 million pounds)
were 1.5 million pounds greater than in 1962, but only 54 percent of the record 1948 catch of
45.8 million pounds.

In Section 14 under the heading "Conversion Factors", is a table which gives the
average number of crabs per pound by species for each of the Atlantic and GulfStates.
Supplementary shellfish tables are shown after the summary catch tables for the Atlantic and
Gulf States.

sz REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

U. S. OYSTER FISHERY

The oyster fishery in 1963 produced 58.4 million pounds of meats valued at $27.1
million--a gain of 2.4 million pounds (4 percent) but a decline of $2 million(7 percent) com-
pared with the previous year. The increased production occurred principally in the Gulf States,
where the 24-million-pound catch was 5.3 million pounds more than in 1962. In 1963, the
Chesapeake, Middle Atlantic, and Pacific areas showed a marked decrease in bothvolume and
value of the oyster catch. The lower value occurred chiefly in the Chesapeake States, ($13.7
million), and the Middle Atlantic States ($1.2 million) which were $2.2 and $1.4 million
respectively less than in 1962.

The Gulf States led in the production of oyster meats with a yield of 24 million
pounds--41 percent of the total catch. The Chesapeake Bay area was second with 18.3
million pounds (31 percent), followed by the Pacific area with 9.8 million pounds (17 percent).
The New England, Middle Atlantic, and South Atlantic States accounted for the remainder.

Dredges were used to take 38.4 million pounds (66 percent) of the oyster harvest,
while tongs accounted for 15.5 million pounds (27 percent). The remainder of the catch was
taken with grabs, rakes, and forks, or was gathered by hand.

In Section 14 of this Digest is a table which gives the volume of the bushel
measures used for oysters in the various Atlantic and Gulf States and the average yield per
bushel. Supplementary shellfish tablesappear after the summary tables for each Atlantic and
Gulf regional section,

REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES
U. S. SHRIMP FISHERY

U.S. shrimp landings in 1963 amounted to 240.5 million pounds valued at $70 million--
a gain of 49.4 million pounds (26 percent) but a decline of more than $3 million (4 percent)
compared with the previous year. The increased production occurred chiefly in the Gulf States,
where the 203-million-pound catch was 61.4 million pounds more than in 1962, In 1963,
shrimp landings in the South Atlantic States (15.5 million pounds) and in the Pacific area
(21.3 million pounds) were 10.5 and 1.6 million pounds less respectively, than in 1962. The
price paid fishermen for the South Atlantic and Gulf catch averaged 31.5 cents per pound
(heads-on weight)-- 11.3 cents less than in 1962.

The otter trawl fleet took 237 million pounds--99 percent of the catch. An additional
3.5 million pounds were taken by beam trawls, bag nets, pots and traps, cast nets, brush
traps, and push nets.

In 1963, there were 16,528 fishermen employed on 3,553 vessels and 5,245 boats
which operated in the U. S. shrimp otter trawl fishery. Texas led in the number of vessels
(craft of 5 net tons and over) with 1,356, while Louisiana was first in boats with 2,867.

U. S. FISH OTTER TRAWL FLEET

The following tables contain information on the U.S. fish ottertrawl fleet. The data
include detailed information on the operating units engaged in this fishery and a breakdown
of vessels by area, State, and gross tonnage. In 1963, a total of 1,171 vessels of over 5
net tons and 129 motor boats operated in the fish otter trawl fleet. A total of 5,042 fisher-
men was employed on these craft. Two trawls were used by 24 of the vessels, bringing a
total number of trawls credited to the fleet to 1,324.

SECTION 13 -
HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

Statistics of the fisheries of the United States are necessary for the best use of the Nation's
aquatic resources. As series of data for extended periods of time are accumulated, the information
becomes increasingly more valuable in indicating trends in the supply and utilization of fishery
products. The extent to which these data are used is frequently dependent upon the ready avail-
ability of needed information to researchers, management officials, and members of the fishing
industry.

Periodically, there are published in"Fishery Statistics of the United States" historical data
for each State on the catch of important species. The most recent publication of these data was in
Statistical Digest No. 43 entitled "Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1956."

The Bureau of Commercial Fisheries has in its files and in various Bureau reports or publi-
cations of other organizations a large volume of historical data. These statistics would be of con-
siderable use to researchers and others interested in the fisheries. Unfortunately, few know of these
records. Tomake the series readily available to researchers and others interested in the fisheries,
a section entitled "Historical Fishery Statistics" has been published, since 1951, in "Fishery Sta-
tistics of the United States." The titles of the series published, and the identifying number of the
Digest in which each appears, follow:

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

COMMERCIAL FISHERIES OF THE GREAT LAKES, 1879-1963

By
Howard J. Buettner, Fishery Reporting Specialist

Bureau of Commercial Fisheries
Fish and Wildlife Service
Ann Arbor, Michigan

This report presents available catch data in a manner that provides an easy reference
to information that heretofore has appeared in various publications. The U.S. catchof fourteen
species is shown separately because of their abundance or economic importance to the fish -
eries. Data appearing in this report are for the five Great Lakes. Production from Lake St.
Clair, the International lakes of northern Minnesota, and connecting waters are not shown.
The data on catch were obtained from Commercial Fish Production in the Great Lakes, 1867-1960,
Technical Report No. 3, (Baldwin and Saalfeld, 1962). The catch of species not listed in the
publication, as well as production during 1961-63, were obtained from various reports and
bulletins of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, and its predecessors. As the datahave been
rounded to the nearest thousand, the figures will not necessarily correspond to the total.

The accuracy of the early records is questionable as the production of various species
frequently had not been separated, either by failure to classify part of the catch or through
misidentification of some species. Tables 1 through 6 contain available data for those U.S.
catches that were separated and are, to our best knowledge, landings of those species.
Generally, when catches of two or more species were combined, their production was placed
in the miscellaneous column along with the landings of incidental and unidentified species.

The first complete U.S. statistical survey of these fisheries was made in 1879, and
subsequent canvasses were made intermittently until 1913, after which surveys were conducted
each year. Biologists recognized the need for sound statistics on both the catchandthe
fishing effort expended to produce that catch. A reporting form was developed and the State
of Michigan placed it in use in 1927, The remaining seven Great Lakes States and the Pro-
vince of Ontario are now collecting statistics by the same method, and all data are treated
by the same analytical procedure. (See Hile, 1962, for an account of the collection and
analysis of these statistics.) State laws make it mandatory for fishermen to report their catch
at the close of each month's fishing operations. AllStates except Minnesota turn these reports
over to the Bureau's Branch of Fishery Statistics for compilation. Data on catch, value, em-
ployment, and operating units are released annually in a Bureau publication entitled Fishery
Statistics of the United States, Beginning with the 1962 report, fishing effort data were
included,

It is not the intent of this report to discuss the biological or economic conditions of
these fisheries. However, avariety of conditions, such as supply, demand, and operational
costs, have affected production.

References to fishes throughout the report are by common names. Most of these names
conform with the approved list of the American Fisheries Society (1960) but a few are according
to local or trade usage. The following list of common and scientific names is offered. If the
names used in this paper differ from the Society's approved common name, the latter is given
in parentheses.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

The abundant supply of fish played an important part in the settlement and develop-
ment of the land areas that border these lakes. From the earliest settlements to about 1830,
commercial fishing was confined almost exclusively to the Indians and employees of the
Hudson Bay Company and the American and Northwest Fur Company (Bissel, 1887). Anexcellent
review of the history and general conditions of these early fisheries can be found in two pub-
lications by Koelz (1926) and Van Oosten (1936).

From 1959-63, the Great Lakes fleet averaged 458 vessels (5 net tons and over), 1,109
smaller motor craft, and 220 nonmotor boats. Although some of the larger craft operate in the
trap net, pound net, and trawl fisheries, most fished gill nets. Many fish stocks occur in
the deeper regions of the lakes, and these vessels are ideally suited to make the necessary
longruns to the fishing grounds and to weather the severe storms that develop. Operators of
smaller craft (less than 5 net tons) also fish gill nets but of shorter lengths than carried by
vessels. Generally these small craft fish in the shallow waters, but it is not uncommon to
find some operating miles from shore. Many of these smaller boats also operate in the long-
line and fyke net fisheries in bays and shallow water areas.

Craft usually return to port at the end of each day's fishing operation at which time
fish are weighed, packed, and shipped; and crews perform various shore duties. Prior to the
mid-1950's, when lake trout were plentiful, many of the larger operators employed shore crews
for maintenance of gear. In the past 10 years, however, the poor economic condition of these
fisheries has reduced the number of employees, especially those on shore. In periods of
good fishing, a vessel employed three to five fishermen, but in recent years most of them
operate with a crew of two or three. Many one-man operations are known.

Many changes, some bordering on disasters, have occurred in the Great Lakes fish-
eries. Among the major ones may be listed: the collapse of the lake herring fishery; and
more recently, the whitefish, blue pike, sauger, and yellow pike or walleye fisheries in Lake
Erie; the 1942-43 mortality that all but exterminated the smelt in Lakes Huron and Michigan;
the recent great abundance of low value alewife in these lakes; andthe consequences of the
penetration of the sea lamprey into the three upper lakes. Other factors have changed and
may have adversely affected the fisheries. Increase in the development of agricultural areas
and timber cutting has resulted in soil erosion; use of fertilizers, insecticides and herbicides
on farms; increases in human population; increased boat use; beach and channel improvements;
and industrial and sewage wastes. All of these have played some role in the conditions that
now exist in many of our fisheries. These events, rising costs, and an adverse market struc-
ture have brought the industry into severe economic distress.

Perhaps the greatest damage dealt the Great Lakes fisheries was the invasion of the
sea lamprey. This parasite, shaped like an eel, is one of a primitive group of fishes.
Instead of jaws it has a circular mouth containing horny teeth; this arrangement permits firm
attachment to fish. It feeds on fish by rasping a hole in the flesh with the teeth onits tongue
and sucks the blood and other body fluids. Fish normally die after one attack or become
greatly weakened. The sea lamprey, an ocean inhabitant, became landlocked in Lake Ontario
many years ago. Around 1921, the sea lamprey found its way into the other Great Lakes
through the Welland Canal. It was never plentiful in Lake Erie where spawning conditions
were not suitable (the sea lamprey spawns in cool-flowing water and builds its nest inrubble).
They moved into Lakes Huron and Michigan and finally into Lake Superior, where the popula-
tion became extremely plentiful. Lampreys destroyed stocks of lake trout in Lakes Huron and
Michigan and did great damage in Lake Superior. The lake trout fishery which once yielded
U.S. fishermen an annual catchvalued at $4.1 millionwas worth only $79,000 in 1963. The
reduction of the sealamprey is being carried out by treatment of streams with a specific toxi-
cant by the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries and the Fisheries Research Board of Canada under
contract with the Great Lakes Fishery Commission. The probability of effective control of the
sea lamprey by chemical treatment appears excellent. Rehabilitation of lake trout should
follow reduction of lamprey stocks.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS a

Landings of fish in the Great Lakes are small in comparison with most coastal fish-
eries; yet the lakes are the principal or only commercial source of fresh-water fishery prod-
ucts inthe United States. Some Great Lakes species, such as lake trout, whitefish, and yellow
pike are gourmetitems that bring high prices. The value of the lake fisheries has been con-
siderable until the recent declines of the choicer species. To give just one example, when
the Pacific sardine fishery was at its height--annual catches in excess of a billion pounds--
the landings of Great Lakes fish had a value equal to that of the sardines.

Development of the Fisheries. In nearly all lakes, the earliest fisheries were prosecuted by
haul seines (in Lake Huron this gear did not become important until 1912.) Although seines
were believed to be the initial gear in Lake Michigan, little is known of these early operations.
The haul seine fishery was seasonal, usually carried on in the spring and fall when the fish
entered shallower waters.

As more people moved into the Great Lakes area, there was increased demand for
fishery products, and fishermen extended operations to the deeper waters. At this time, gill
nets and then pound nets became popular; trap nets and longlines or setlines followed.

Dates for the first operation of each gear vary for the individual lakes. Haul seines
were known to be used as early as 1807 in Lake Ontario, while in Lake Erie, the firstrecords
of this gear are for 1815. Gill nets were fished in Lake Huron in 1835. The pound net was
used in Lake Huron in 1854, and in Lakes Michigan and Superior, records show this gear was
in use in 1860. In Lake Michigan, the trap net appeared around 1885, and longlines or set-
lines were recorded in 1870.

At present, nine types of gearare fished commercially on the Great Lakes. Inaddition
to the five gears mentioned above, fyke nets, trolling or handlines, dip nets, and trawls 1/,
are also used. Forpurposes of analysis of catch andeffort, gill nets are subdivided into four
mesh size groups: 1-1/4 to 2 inches; 2-1/8 to 3 inches; 4to7 inches; and7-1/8 to 14inches.
The gill net is highly selective, andeach mesh size group is used for the capture of certain
species. A 1-1/4 to 2 inch mesh net is used to catch bait fish for longline fishing and will
also capture large quantities of smelt as they enter the shallow water in the spring. Asize of
2-1/8 to 3 inches is used primarily for the capture of chubs, lake herring, and yellow perch.
A 4to 7 inch net is fished for lake trout, whitefish, yellow pike, and suckers. The larger
7-1/8 to 14 inch net is designed to catch carp and sturgeon.

The following list of gear, in descending order, is based on the number of fishermen
employed in the Great Lakes fisheries: 2-1/8 to 3 inch mesh gill nets; 4-1/8 to 7 inchmesh
gill nets; trap nets; longlines or setlines; haul seines; pound nets; 1-1/4 to 2 inch mesh gill
nets; fyke and hoop nets; 7-1/8 to 14 inch mesh gill nets; otter trawls; dip nets; and trolling
or handlines. This order changes in Lake Erie where haul seines, longlines or setlines, and
trap nets are the predominant gears; but in other water areas gillnets are the principal method
of fishing. Excepting employment in related industries (processing, canning, wholesaling,
etc.), the Great Lakes fleet in 1959-63 provided employment for an average of 3,367 fishermen.

The entire roster of species taken in the early fisheries is not known. As the use of
haul seines was widespread, however, it is assumed that the major portion of the catch con-
sisted of those fishfound in shallow water such as catfish and suckers (lake herring in Lake
Superior). It is possible that some deep- and cold-water species were taken by this gear
(a substantial lake trout and whitefish fishery existed in the DetroitRiver as early as 1885);
but knowledge of these early fisheries does not allow further inferences to be made.

1/ The otter trawl was introduced in 1958. New York, Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin

have issued permits for the experimental use of this gear in Lakes Ontario and Michigan. In
the State of Pennsylvania waters of Lake Erie, trawls are a licensed fishing gear.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

Sufficient data for later years are available to enable biologists to trace the abundance
of fish stocks in relation to production and fishing pressure for entire lakes or specific areas.
Within this period, production of the high-value fish has tended to decline, while the low-
value fish have increased,

In the last 35 years, Federal and State research groups have made numerous investi-
gations of these fisheries. It appears, however, that effective conservation of these fish-
eries requires more knowledge, especially in waters where low-priced species are overly
abundant. It may be necessary, someday, to set quotas on production of certain species and
to limit the number of fishermen.

United States and Canadian Production, The United States owns 64 percent of the water area
in the Great Lakes and has outproduced Canada every year. The differences in the landings
of the two countries, however, have been growing smaller, and in 1963 the U.S. production
was only 13 million pounds more than landings in Canada. In 1962, Canadian landings were
below the United States catch by only 8 millionpounds. The catches from both countries were
more nearly equal that year than for any other.

To demonstrate declines in landings for all lakes, data have been separated into three
periods: early, 1879-1908; middle, 1914-28; and late, 1929-63. As complete U.S. data
were not available for some lakes for early years, figures used for the fisheries are for the
years 1879, 1885, 1889-90, 1893, 1897, 1899, 1903, 1908, and 1914-63. Figures for the
following years are complete for only certain lakes (see individual lake tables); 1891-92,
1894-96, 1898, 1900-02, 1904-07, and 1911-13.

From 1879-1908, the United States accounted for 82 percent of the Great Lakes land-
ings. This percentage dropped to 73 percent in 1914-28 and to 71 percent in 1929-63, The
average annual landings in the United States during these periods were 102.3 million,
85.3 million, and 75.9 million pounds, respectively. Canada's average catch was 23.0 mil-
lion, 31.9 million, and 31.1 million pounds, respectively, for the same periods. The total
U.S. catch in 1963 was the lowest on record--55,823,000 pounds.

Lake Ontario. U.S. productionin Lake Ontario (table 2) has always been smallin comparison
with landings in the other lakes. The presence of the parasitic sea lamprey in Lake Ontario
may have reduced the stocks of the deep-water fishes, Arelatively deep lake, maximum
depth 802 feet, it contains lake trout and lake whitefish stocks; however, in recent years,
the landings of these species have decreased.

Catches of blue pike, although never large compared with landings of this species in
Lake Erie, accounted for at least 25 percent of the total annual lake catch during the period
1946-54 (as high as 70 percent in 1952). Since that time, landings have decreased and in
1963, less than 50 pounds were produced,

Although the reported U.S. catches were high during the early recorded history, mixed
catches make it impossible to trace the trends of some species. We believe that large quan-
tities of lake herring were landed during the early years.

The rise in U.S. production to 1,914,000 pounds in 1921 resulted from increased
landings of chubs and lake herring (cisco). The catches of these species were mixed, but
we believe that the bulk of this production was lake herring.

Total production has declined since the earliest recorded landings; catches since 1941
have exceeded 1/2 million pounds in only one year, 1952.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

For the periodrecords are available, Canada has outproduced the United States every
year, except in 1879. Since 1929 to the present time, Canada has accounted for at least 69
percent of the total production of Lake Ontario, ranging from 69 percent in 1940 to 94 percent
in 1956.

The 1879-1908 U.S. catches in Lake Ontario averaged slightly over 2 million pounds.
Production in 1913-28 averaged 669,000 pounds; in the period 1929-63, landings averaged
491,000 pounds. The major portion of the present day U.S. production is landed at ports on
Chaumont Bay, the extreme eastern end of Lake Ontario.

Lake Erie. In Lake Erie, a shallow warm-water lake, U.S. fishermen produced an average of
32.6 million pounds annually over a 59-year period (table 3). In the early fishery, blue pike,
lake herring (cisco), saugers, yellow perch, and yellow pike were landed in large quantities.
These species, considered to be choice, brought a high dollar return to the producer. As
with any warm-water area, however, considerable quantities of carp, suckers, and sheeps-
head also were available although little used.

The lake herring has almost vanished from Lake Erie. In 1924, production exceeded
21 million pounds, yet in 1925, landings were only 2,817,000 pounds. In 1926, catches
dropped to 1,449,000 pounds, rose to 2,350,000 pounds in 1927, and declined to 618,000
pounds in 1928. Landingsremained at very lowlevels for the next 9 years, rose to about 3/4
million pounds in 1938-39; but from 1940-44 catches were very small. Production in 1945
increased to 2,765,000 pounds, jumped to 6,638,000 pounds in 1946; landings declined to
1,177,000 pounds in 1947; and since that year have decreased until in 1963 the yield was
only 1,000 pounds.

Blue pike landings have declined drastically; in 1963 only 200 pounds were caught.
Yellow perch, a consistently abundant species in all lakes except Lake Superior, is still
producedin large amounts. The catch of yellow pike has dropped sharply in the last 5 years,
and in 1962 reached an alltime low of 433,000 pounds. In 1963, the production of this species
increased to 800,000 pounds, well below the landings during 1940-58. Production of white-
fish has been sporadic. Catches of this species since 1879 have shown considerable de-
crease for 1 or more years and then have increased for a period. The lowest yield of white-
fish occurred in 1962 when only 3,000 pounds were taken. The sauger, once an important
commercial fish, has steadily decreased in production, and in-the last 9 years landings have
been insignificant.

As supplies of blue pike, lake herring, lake whitefish, saugers, and yellow pike
dwindled, the total U.S. catch decreased until the lowest yield (17,238,000 pounds) was
reported in 1963.

Although other species such as carp, sheepshead, suckers, and white bass are avail-
able, their production does not make up for the loss of the high-priced species as the market
can absorb only limited amounts of these low-value fish.

In 1879-1908 U.S. catches averaged 46.0 million pounds; in 1914-28, 38.9 million
pounds; and in 1929-63, 26.4 million pounds annually. From 1879-1953, the United States
outproduced Canada; however, from 1954 to the present time, Canada's landings have account-
ed for the major portion of the total Lake Erie production.

Lake Huron. The total U.S. production in Lake Huron was fairly steady until 1939. Since
that year, landings have been declining (table 4). The sea lamprey has brought the production
of lake trout to an end and affected adversely the stocks of whitefish, suckers, and yellow
pike. Lake herring have not reproduced successfully in recent years. The failure of these
species has dealt the industry a severe blow. On the other hand, chubs, never landed in
large quantities, are now produced at a high rate.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

The last good catches of whitefish were in 1947-48. In 1949, the take dropped to
530,000 pounds and it reached an alltime low of only 30,000 pounds in 1956. Since that
year, it has increased slightly but never exceeded 500,000 pounds.

Since 1879, U.S. production has exceeded Canada's landings in all but 6 years--1890,
1892, and 1951-54. Total U.S. catches averaged 14.5 million pounds in 1879-1908; in
1912-28, 12.3 million pounds; and in 1929-63, 8.6 million pounds.

Lake Michigan. Lake Michigan (table 5) is the only Great Lake lying entirely within the
boundaries of the United States. Four States--Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin--
control the lake's fisheries.

Here, the effect of the sea lamprey depredation was widespread and catastrophic.
First hit were the lake trout. Landings dropped from 5,437,000 pounds in 1945 to 4,000
pounds in 1952. At the same time, the take of chubs increased to reach an alltime high of
12,659,000 pounds in 1960.

Unquestionably, other species were affected by the sea lamprey. Principal among
them have been whitefish, suckers, andthe large chubs. With the disappearance of the
lake trout, small chubs (bloaters) increased in abundance. Changes in these waters appear
to be following those of Lake Ontario where the sea lamprey has been known to exist for
numerous years and where production is low. When it was no longer profitable to fish for
lake trout and lake whitefish, fishermen turned their efforts to catching yellow perch and chubs.

The effect of the 1942-43 smelt mortality was relatively shortlived. The catch for
1944 was only 5,000 pounds, but by 1958 production rose to over 9 million pounds.

In 1879-1908, total landings averaged 35.1 million pounds; in 1911-28, 23.4 million
pounds; and in the remaining 35 years, catches averaged 24.9 million pounds annually.

Lake Superior, Lake Superior produces only lake trout, lake whitefish, and lake herring in
quantity (table 6). In recent years the catch of chubs and smelt has increased. This was the
last lake invaded by the sea lamprey. As in Lakes Huron and Michigan, chub catches in-
creased with the loss of lake trout production.

The yearly averages of the total U.S. catch for the periods 1879-1908, 1913-28, and
1929-63 were 7.8, 10.5, and 15.6 million pounds, respectively. . This longterm increase is
largely due to production of lake herring. Because the sea lamprey's heavy predation started
much later than in Lakes Huronand Michigan, lake trout landings were fairly consistent until
1952. Some quantities of native lake trout remained in Lake Superior at the time the Bureau
began its attempt to control the sea lamprey. Even though production of this species is low,
now controlled by quota, biologists report that the abundance of lake trout is increasing.

Production by State. Complete data for all States are not available prior to 1935 (table YG
The States in order of total production generally have been Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois, and Indiana. In the last 4 years, Wisconsin
has occupied second place because of the large catches made in the otter trawl fishery.

That portion of Lake Michigan over which Indiana has control is not especially pro-
ductive. Some Indiana fishermen purchase licenses from the State of Michigan and fish in
that State's waters. These catches were reported by the State of Indiana from 1935-43. Be-
ginning in 1944, catches made in Michigan waters by Indiana fishermen were added to
production of the State of Michigan

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS os

The production of Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin has accounted for at least 80 per-
cent of the total U.S. Great Lakes landings from 1935-63 (as high as 93 percent in 1960 and
1961). Monthly landing bulletins for these three States are published by the Bureau.

It is evident that commercial fish landings in all States are decreasing. The average
production for each State during the 29 years of record is: New York, 1.4 million; Pennsyl-
vania, 2.3 million; Ohio, 21.3 million; Indiana, 0.2 million; Michigan, 25.7 million; Illinois,
1.3 miilion; Wisconsin, 18.5 million; and Minnesota, 4.2 million pounds. The average total
U.S. catch during this period was 74.8 million pounds.

The data appearing in this report make it clear that the Great Lakes fisheries are
in severe economic distress. The choice, high-value species have become scarce, Al-
though the supply of low-value fish is large, the production of these species is limited by
the demand, which is relatively light. No single factor brought about the conditions that
now prevail.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

ATLANTIC AND GULF COASTS MENHADEN FISHERY

The menhaden is taken in greater quantities than any fish occurring off the Atlantic and
Gulf Coasts of the UnitedStates. TheIndians are known to have used menhaden for fertilizer
before the settlement of NorthAmerica by the whiteman. Colonists soonrecognized the value
of the fish for this purpose and the use of whole fish for fertilizer was continued into the
nineteenth century. The production of menhaden oil is reported to have been undertaken in
Rhode Island in 1812 and in Maine about 1850. Rapid growth of an industry for producing both
menhaden scrap and oil occurred between 1865 and 1875. In recent years menhaden have been
landed in greater volume than any otherfishtaken by U.S. fishermen. The total catch since
the establishment of the United States has exceeded 62 billion pounds, more than the produc-
tion of any otherspecies. Nearly the entire catch of menhaden is now used inthe manufacture
of meal and solubles used for animal feeding, and oil used in the manufacture of margarine and
a wide variety of industrial products and processes.

Dataon the catch of menhaden andon the production of menhaden products are avail-
able for most of the years following 1872. Since menhaden are landed at relatively few plants,
the collection of data on the catch and production of menhaden products is relatively simple.
It is therefore believed that the following data have a high degree of accuracy.

PACIFIC SARDINE FISHERY, 1915-63

The Pacific sardine fishery is an outstanding example ofa "boom" and "bust" industry.
In less than 20 years these fish moved from a position of minor importance in the Pacific
Coast fisheries tothat of the leading species taken by United States fishermen, andthen inan
even shorter period, the catch dropped to lessthan 1 percent of peak production. Pacific sar-
dines were firsttaken in large numbers during World War I to supply the expanding market for
canned sardines. Adoption of the screw press in the 1920's permitted utilization of cannery
waste and whole fish for processing of fish meal and oil. Rapid growth of the domestic and
export markets for canned sardines, and the domestic market for fish meal and oilresulted ina
large expansion of the sardine fishing fleet and in processing facilities.

The catch underwent phenomenal growth, increasing from only 4 million pounds in 1915
to 158 million pounds in 1918. By 1929, landings totaled 652 million pounds, and a peak of
1.5 billion pounds was reached in 1936, The decline in the great sardine fishery was even
more spectacular than its rapid growth, After 1936, catches decreased sharply, and 1944 was
the last year production exceeded a billion pounds. Production dropped to 256 million pounds
in 1947, recovered somewhat in the next 4 years, andthen in 1952 plunged to only 14 million
pounds. In 1963, landings amounted to a little over 7 million pounds.

Early in its management program, the State of California had adopteda policy that fish
landed in the State should be used for food, However, an exception was made in the case of
sardines. Use of the fish for processing into meal and oil was more profitable than canning,
and great pressure had been exerted to use whole fish for reduction. In an attempt to restrict
the reduction of whole fish, it was originally required that 20 cases of sardines be canned
from each ton landed, This requirement was reduced to 18, then 15, andfinally to 13.5 cases
per ton. The operation of reduction ships outside territorial waters off San Francisco Bay
evaded this restriction, and the State was forced to adopt a system of "special permits" under
which specified quantities of whole fish could be taken by permit holders for processing into
meal and oil. Issuance of these permits was continued until the shortage of fish forced their
discontinuance in 1953,

In the early years of the fishery, the entire catch was canned, and although taking of
the fish for direct reduction increasedrapidly in the 1920's, canning remained the principal use
of sardines through 1931, Inthe following year, however, about two-thirds of the 312 million-
pound catch was used for straightreduction. Use of whole fish for this purpose continued to
increase, and in both 1934 and 1936, over 80 percent of the catch was used as whole fish for
manufacture into meal and oil. Most of the catch continued to be used directly for reduction
through 1944, and possibly 1945.

The catch in the San Francisco District increased to 789 million pounds in 1936--over
half of the entire receipts of these fish in the Pacific Coast States. In this year receipts of
sardines by reduction ships reached a peak of 508 million pounds. This District dominated the
fishery until 1940, when Monterey moved into first place, In 1946, the fishery in the San
Francisco District was almost a complete failure with receipts amounting to only 6.4 million
pounds, Since that year, landings in this District have been insignificant, and in 1963 no
landings were reported,

Monterey became an important sardine portin the early 1920's, Peak landings occurred
in 1944, when receipts totaled over 500 million pounds. Following 1945, the catch dropped
rapidly and amounted to less than2,000 pounds in 1953. Since that date it climbed erratically
to 1,300,200 pounds in 1963.

The San Pedro area had the most consistent landings of any ofthe California Districts.
Receipts increased steadily from the inception of the fishery to a peak of 547 million pounds in
1950. However, the catch in the following year was less thanhalfthis amount, and the 1953
receipts were less than 8 million pounds.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

In 1935, fishing for sardines was undertaken off the Oregon coast and a catch of over
52 million pounds was landed at coastal and Columbia River reduction plants. The Oregon
fishery declined following 1935, and reduction operations were discontinued after 1943. In
1936, sardine reduction plants began operating on the Washington coast and the fishery reached
a peak of 53 million pounds in 1938. Production declined rapidly following that year, and only
insignificant quantities have been taken since 1947. None have been reported in either
Washington or Oregon since 1951.

The canning of Pacific sardines has been the most important use of the fish with respect
to value of the products produced, and in all but eight years, the value of the canned pack
exceeded that for meal and oil. The pack of canned sardines first exceeded 1 million cases
in 1923. Three years later it passed the 2 million mark, and by 1929 reached 3.8 million
cases. Loss of the export marketandthe domestic depression caused canning to decline, and
in 1932 less than 1 million cases were packed, Following that year, the pack increased
rapidly and in 2 years--1941 and 1950--exceeded 5 million cases. After 1950, the canning
declined sharply due to disappearance of the fish, and in 1963 only 121,000 cases were
packed.

The major portion of the catch of Pacific sardines has been used to produce meal and
oil since in addition to the whole fish used for reduction, the offal from canning operations,
broken, crushed, and off-sized fish have likewise been used for this purpose. It isestimated
that of the total catch of 21.8 billion pounds of sardines taken by United States fishermen
during the years from 1915 to 1960, about 14 billion pounds of whole sardines, offal, etc.,
were made into meal and oil. Production of sardine meal reached a peak of 121,739 tons in
1936 and the record production of oil (26 million gallons) occurred in the same year.

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS re

ATLANTIC OCEAN PERCH FISHERY, 1930-63

The ocean perch supports a fishery that has grown spectacularly in the 29 years since
the inception of the fishery. Although long familiar to New England fishermen, they were
practically unknown to the fish-eating public until 1934. In 1933 when only 257 thousand
pounds were landed, the catch ranked one hundred and sixth in volume of production among
United States fisheries. In 1951 the catch totaled 258 million pounds andranked fifth. Only
menhaden, salmon, tuna and Pacific sardine were taken in greater volume.

Prior to 1934, small catches of ocean perch made incidentally to the capture of other
species were usually disregarded. In that year landings of haddock, the principal fish used
for filleting, were down sharply and fishermen and dealers were searching for a fish suitable
for filleting to augment the dwindling supplies of haddock. Ocean perch were available in
large quantities and were found to yield attractive fillets of a rich and agreeable flavor suit-
able for shipping to inland markets. Demand for the fillets was developed, at first in the
Midwest and later in other sections of the country, and landings increased from 257 thousand
pounds in 1933 to nearly 67 million pounds in 1936 and to a peak of more than 258 million
pounds in 1951. Since then the fishery has declined, except foroccasional fluctuations, to
108 million pounds in 1963, the lowest since 1940.

In the early years of the fishery, most of the catchwas landed at Boston, Mass. How-
ever, deliveries to Gloucester, Mass. grew rapidly, and in each year since 1938 it has been
the largest landing port for these fish. In 1951 nearly 178 million pounds of ocean perch were
landed at Gloucester. Portland and Rockland, Me. also became important ocean perch ports.
Portland was the principal Maine port of landing until 1944 when Rockland moved into first
place. In 1954, however, Portland landings once again exceeded those at Rockland.

Ocean perch is one of few commercial species giving birth to live young instead of eggs.
Therefore the number of young spawnedeach year is comparativelylow. The fish grow slowly
at the rate of aboutaninch a yearuntil around their eleventh year when they mature. Because
of the few young and slow rate of growth, the rapid expansion of the ocean perch fleet and
catch has resulted in a considerable decline in the yield from the nearby grounds as the
accumulated stocks of older fish were caught. In order to supply the market, the fleet ex-
panded operations to more distant grounds progressively and concentrated increasingly on
smaller fish.

In the early years of the ocean perch fishery the entire catch was taken on grounds off
the coast of NewEnglandand Nova Scotia. Most of the catch was taken off New England until
about 1948 when the Nova Scotia banks began yielding the major portion of the production. In
1951 important catches were made in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and on the Grand Banks of
Newfoundland. In both 1953 and 1954 the major portion of the catch for which area of capture
is known, was taken from the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Grand Bank of Newfoundland.

The entire catch of ocean perch is filleted, and most of the fillets are frozen. Some of
the waste from filleting is processedinto fishmealand the remainder is used as lobster bait.
Practically the entire catch is taken with otter trawls.

an HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS

CONVERSION OF PACIFIC COAST TUNA CLIPPERS TO PURSE SEINERS

The California skipjack and yellowfin tuna fisheries were, untilrecent years, largely a
pole and line fishery. Vessels used in the early fishery were small flush-deck craft, with the
wheelhouse forward and low freeboard aft. A bait tank was mounted on the stern, and fishing
was carried out from the deck. As the size of the craftincreased, the engine was moved for-
wardand the house enlarged. Eventually, the pilothouse was constructed atop the main house.
The size andrange of the vesselsincreased, andthe term "tuna clipper" became synonymous
with fast far-ranging vessels highly successful in the pursuit of tuna. Although purse seining
for tuna by medium-sized vessels on a seasonal basis had been practiced, and albacore were
taken largely by trollers, the pole and line method dominated the fishery until 1959.

From its early history, the U.S. tuna fishery experienced a steady rise, reaching a
peak in 1950, but since then, economic difficulties in the industry have led to a decline in
the number of vessels and the catch.

Early attempts at conversion to purse seine were largely unsuccessful; however, inthe
fall of 1957, the large steel tuna clipper, Sun King, converted to a purse seine, and for the
firsttime, used a powerblock and a nylon net. This first conversion of a vessel to the present
method of purse seining had a tremendous impact on tuna fishing throughout the world. While
details of the conversion of the Sun King are not available, the modifications consist essential-
ly of removing bait tanks, circulation pumps, fishing racks, and certainpiping. The success
of the Sun King was immediate, andother vessels began to convert to purse seining, using the
powerblock and nylon net. The use of the nylon net was most important because cotton nets
deteriorate rapidly in tropical waters.

Conversion of bait craft to purse seines continued during 1958, and by 1959 the
California clipper fleet was undergoing the most radical modification in the history of the
fishery, involving wholesale conversion of clippers to purse seines. By the end of 1959, 15
active converted tuna seiners were operating, 20 were in various stages of conversion, and
23 were planned for conversion as soon as space became available in the shipyards. The
wholesale modification of the clipper fleet to purse seiners continued through 1960, with con-
versions completed for 52 suchvessels during that year. By the end of 1960, the active fleet
had 67 large converted tuna seiners, with a total fish capacity of 17,442 tons, and 7 vessels
were in various stages of conversion. It appeared that the only drawback to complete con-
version in 1960 was that the shipyards could not handle the entire fleet.

During 1961, there were 21 large tuna clipper bait boats converted to purse seiners.
Two surplus military craft of 550 tons and 800 tons, respectively, were modified and equipped
with purse seine gear, and one purse seiner, the Royal Pacific, of 450-gross ton capacity,
was completed and joined the fleet. These 24 vessels, with an estimated capacity of 6,400
tons, increased the large purse seine fleet to 90, with an estimated capacity of 24,125 tons.
At the endof the year, 22 vessels of the converted purse seine fleet were fishing out of foreign
ports and Puerto Rico. The once mighty pole and line clipper fleet had only 37 vessels.
(Clipper bait boats are limited to craft having a carrying capacity of 50 or more tons.) Of the
remaining bait fishing vessels, four, with a total capacity of 870 tons, were inactive; three
were fishing outside continental United States; and two were being converted to tuna purse
seiners.

The year 1962 marked the end of large-scale conversions from clippers to seiners, with
only one vessel making the change. The clipper fleet had about disappeared as a source of
vessels for conversion to seiners; however, the use of other craft increased the number and
capacity of the fleet. For example, the Day Island was converted in 1962 from an Army mine-
layer to a purse seiner. The vessel was reported to have a capacity of 1,000 tons of frozen
tuna. By 1963, the conversion of clipper bait boats to purse seiners had been almost com-
pleted and, again, only one vessel was converted from the clipper fleet to purse seining.
During 1963, other additions to the fleet consisted of one converted military craft and a newly

HISTORICAL FISHERY STATISTICS 479

constructed vessel, the Caribbean, with a carrying capacity of 760 tons, scheduled to fish
out of Puerto Rico. At the end of the year, the California-owned converted tuna purse seine
fleet totaled 92 vessels converted from tuna bait boats, 10 from surplus military craft, and 3
newly constructed large tuna purse seiners--a total fleet of 105 seiners, with a carrying
capacity of 35,380 tons. Conversely, the tuna bait boat fleet (of over 50 tons capacity) had
shrunk to 20 vessels, with a total tuna capacity of 2,505 tons. Historical data on Pacific

Coast tuna appear in the following tables.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

Thisis another ina series of annual reports
containing detailed statistics, analytic textual
reviews, and graphic presentations on the com-
mercial fisheries of the United States. Included
are data on the quantity and value of the com-
mercial yield of fishery products by States,
sections, and gear; and the number of persons
and operating units engaged in the fisheries. In
the Great Lakes and Mississippi River Sections,
the catch is also tabulated by water bodies.
The publication contains data on the volume and
value of processed fishery products, freezings
and cold storage holdings, foreign trade, and
other related information. The report has been
prepared and published by the Bureau of Com-
mercial Fisheries, Fish and Wildlife Service,
U.S. Department of the Interior, and is a con-
tinuation of a series inaugurated by its prede-
cessor organizations in the Department of
Interior, Commerce, Commerce and Labor, and
the U. S. Fish Commission.

In order that those who use the statistical
data contained in this and previous reports may
be informed as to the source of the figures and
methods for their collection, it has been deemed
advisable to outline, in moderate detail, the sur-
vey procedure followed, This procedure has been
developed over many years,and changes in meth-
ods have been made at times when such changes
have appeared to work toward general improve-
ment. While the surveys in different sections
are not made inthe same manner, owing to vary-
ing facilities and records, an attempt has been
made to make the data collected by various meth-
ods comparable withrespect tothe same yearas
well as over a period of years. Throughout the
entire plan, it has been the intention to coord-
inate State and federal fishery statistical work
so that there will be as little duplication of
effort as possible.

SECTIONAL SURVEYS

Statistical surveys of the fisheries and fish-
ery industries of the various sections of the
United States occupy by far the greatest part of
the time of the personnel of the Branch of Statis-
tics. At frequent intervals, fieldrepresentatives
visit the individual fishing localities of the vari-
ous States to collect statistics on the volume and
value of the catch of fish and shellfish, employ-

ment in the fisheries, quantity of fishing gear,
number and classification of fishing craft, and
the volume andvalue of processed fishery prod-
ucts. The various phases of these surveys are
discussed in detail in the sections following.

History-=<=tThe first comprehensive statis—
tical study of the fisheries and fishery industries
of the United States was made for the year 1880
by George Brown Goode, Assistant Director of
the U. S. National Museum, and associates,
with the cooperation of the Commissioner of
Fisheries and the Superintendent of the Tenth
Census. Data for specific fisheries, or restrict-
ed sections for years prior to 1880, also were
collected in the early survey and recorded in
Mr. Goode'sreports, The survey for 1880, how-
ever, did not include the Mississippi River and
its tributaries. Periodic general surveys of a
limited number of States or limited areas of the
United States were made forthe years from 1880
to 1907 and from 1909 to 1928. The first com-
plete statistical canvass of the entire United
States was made for 1908 by the Bureau of the
Census. The next general survey of the entire
United States was not made until 1931, although
complete data for all sections, excluding the
Mississippi River andits tributaries, were col-
lected for 1929 and 1930. Complete data on the
catch and operating units for these same sections
were also collected for 1932. In the latter sur-
vey, however, lack of sufficient funds prohibited
collection of data onthe wholesale and manufac-
turing operations except those data collected as
a part of the canned fishery products and byprod-
ucts survey. Various sections were surveyed
during the years from 1933 to 1949, inclusive.
A complete survey of all sections of the country
was made for 1950. Since 1951, allof the coast-
al areas have been canvassed annually, and
catch records have been obtained for the Lakes
section. Complete operating unit and catch data
have been obtained for all areas since 1954, ex-
cept that only a partial survey of the Mississippi
River and its tributaries was made for 1961. Data
on the wholesale and manufacturing industries
were collected inall of the surveys from 1933 to
1940, inclusive. Inthe years from 1941 to 1949,
inclusive, andin 1951, lack ofexperienced per-
sonnel and budgetary limitations precluded the
collection of data on wholesale and manufactur-
ing firms except for those datacollectedas part
of the canned fishery products, industrial prod-
ucts, and packaged fish surveys.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

The chart on page 485 indicates the years
for which surveys have been made in the various
sections, Figures for recent years are available
from the Bureau in bulletin form, but data for the
earlier years are available onlyin the Fish Com-
missionand Bureau of Fisheries printed reports.
These reports are on file in the Department of
the Interior library and in many public libraries.

Since the surveys of the fisheries have var-
ied in completeness, three legends have been
used for the years shownin the chart to indicate
whether complete, partial, or no surveys were
conducted in the individual regions. The des-
ignation "complete survey" has been used to
indicate that basic operating unit and catchdata
were obtained and that complete information was
collectedon employmentin wholesale and manu-
facturing establishmentsand on the production of
manufactured fishery products. The legend "par-
tial survey" usually indicates that operating unit
and catch statistics were collected, but that no
information was obtained on employment in whole-
sale and manufacturing establishments and that
only partial data were obtainedon the production
of manufactured fishery products. In some in-
stances the designation "partial survey" is used
for regions in which only catch statistics were
collected. The legend “no survey" indicates that
a general canvass was not conducted to obtain
operating unit, catch, employment in wholesale
and manufacturing plants, and complete manu-
factured products data. Although the chart in-
dicates that in certain regions no surveys were
conducted, some information may be available
on the landings atcertain important ports. Like-
wise, informationon the catchof certain species,
such as menhaden, may be available as a result
of data collected in connection with the annual
canned fish and byproducts survey. Data on the
annual production of canned fishery products and
byproducts have been collected for all regions
since 1921, while information has been obtained
on the production of packaged fish for 1926 and
annually since 1928.

A bibliography listing the various surveys
made since 1880 and the publications in which
the results were published appeared in Statisti-
cal Digest No. 43, "Fishery Statistics of the
United States, 1956," A list of the statistical
bulletins inthe Current Fishery Statistics series
published during 1963 may be found in Section

17 of this Digest.

Field Personnel--tThe statistics con-
tained in this volume have been collected by a
group of trained fisheryreporting specialists of
the Bureau,

Period Covered--These specialists
are assigned to field stations, generally in the
principal port within their field, and travel from
that stationin conducting their various surveys.
Most of the reporting agents collect statistics
on landings for the current year, and assemble
final operating unit, catch, and processed prod-
ucts data for the previous year, Itis usually
3to 10 months afterthe endof the calendar year
for which they are collecting data before the final
figures for the digest are available. The data
are tabulated and prepared for publication before
the end of the year, The figures are collected
and published on a calendar year basis. Prior
to 1930, statistics onthe catch of oysters in the
Atlantic and Gulf States were collected for the
oyster season; that is, from September to April,
inclusive. Since 1930, they have been collected
on a calendar year basis,

Scope--The coastal statistical surveys
include canvasses of the commercial fisheries
of the oceans, bays, and coastal rivers as far
inlandas commercial fishing is important. This
usually coincides with the range of commercial
fishing for anadromous species. Statistics on
the fisheries of the Mississippi River include
those ofthe MississippiRiver proper as well as
all of its tributaries wherein commercial fishing
for either fish, crustaceans, ormollusks is car=
ried on. Statistics on the fisheries of the Great
Lakes cover canvasses of the fisheries in the
lakes proper, adjacent bays, the International
Lakes of northern Minnesota, and rivers which
sustain a commercial fishery having outlets in-
to these waters. Statistics on the fisheries of
Florida include the commercial fisheries in Lake
Okeechobee and other inland lakes, Surveys
for statistics of the wholesale and processing
fishery industries cover plants located in the
coastal, river, and lake areas adjacent to the
waters mentioned above.

Methods of Collection--There are
several methods used in the collection of fishery
statistics, each of which has been carefully

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

studied to obtainthe bestresults with available
personnel and funds. In the preparation of oper-
ating unit data, the field personnel are supplied
witha deck of prepunched vessel cards obtained
from the Bureau of Customs. These cards indi-
cate the name, official number, rig code, gross
tonnage, length, and year built, Field personnel
enter the number of crewmen, and number and
type of gear used by the vessel. These data are
obtained by interview. Dataon the craft of less
than 5 net tons are obtained from State conser-
vation agencies and by contact with firms pur-
chasing fish or shellfish from fishermen. The
data thus obtained are machine processed to en-
sure accuracy.

Data on over 96 percent of the catch are
available from summaries of monthly landings
bulletins and other current records assembled
by the Bureau or the various States. If complete
catch data are not available from central sources,
wholesale dealers and manufacturers of fishery
products are visited, and data are obtained from
them on their purchases of fishand shellfish, It
is impossible for the few Bureau representatives
available for this work tointerview each fisher-
man in a given locality. However, the more im-
portant areas anda sufficient number of areas
of lesser importance are visited to obtain reliable
information on production, the number of fishing
craft engaged, the quantity of gear operated,
catch by gear and waters, and the number of
persons employed as fishermen,

The Bureau's role withregard to fishery sta-
tistics is principally that of coordinating the col-
lection of information, assembling, analyzing,
publishing, and disseminating fishery data. The
collection of basic operating unit and catch sta-
tistics is primarily a State function. The State
fishery agencies in a number of States have de-
veloped relatively complete statistical systems
which greatly facilitate the Bureau's surveys in
these States, Insuchinstances, the Bureau con-
ducts only such surveys as may be necessary to
make the data comparable with those of other
States,

The Bureau obtains from the records of the
State fishery agencies most of the catch statis-
tics for the fisheries of the Great Lakes, the
northern Mississippi River area, and the Inter-
national Lakes of northern Minnesota. Toobtain
data on the numberof fishermen, boats, vessels,
and gear, the Bureau conducts such personal sur-
veys among the fishermen as may be necessary

to supplement the State records.

Bureau statistical personnel are stationed at
Seattle, Wash. and San Pedro, Calif. for the
purpose of surveying the fisheries of Washing-
ton, Oregon, and California, They obtain from
the records of the State fishery departments
figures on the volume of the catchand operating
units. The value of the catch is derived from
State and dealers’ records. In Washington and
Oregon, data for operating units in the offshore
fisheries are obtained from the records of various
fishery organizations as well as fromrecords of
the State fishery agencies. Statistics of the
wholesale fishery industry for this section are
obtained largely by personal interviews.

In many States, the Bureau and the fishery
agency of the respective States cooperate in the
collection and publication of current monthly and
annual data on the catch, These data form the
basis of the annual catch figures published in
this report for the following States: Maine,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, New
Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, California,
Ohio, Michigan, and Wisconsin,

In the administration of the Alaska fisher-
ies , the State requires that copies of allreceipts
for fish and shellfish purchases from fishermen
be furnished to the Alaska Department of Fish
and Game. The data on these tickets are com-
piled and made available to the Bureau. The
summary data, by districts, are reproduced in
this report.

Statistics on the volume of the catchof fish
in the Great Lakes States usually are shown in
weights as landed, which may be in the round or
drawn condition. Statistics on the volume of the
catch of fishtaken in the remainder of the United
States are usually shown in round weight.

The figures in the tables for shellfish repre-
sent the weight of the meats in the cases of uni-
valve and bivalve mollusks, and the round weight
of crustaceans and such cephalopods as squid
and octopus.

Shore and Vessel Fisheries--In
general, statistics of the shore fisheries, as col-
lected by the Bureau's representatives, include

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE -

data on the number of casual and regular fisher-
men; number of motor and other fishing boats
(craft of less than5 net tons capacity are called
“boats"); type and quantity of gear used; and the
volume, value, and method of capture of each
species for each locality or group of localities.
This method is not followed in some sections
where the availability of data collected by the
State fishery agencies obviates the necessity
of detailed locality surveys.

Statistics of the vessel fisheries include
data on the number in the crew; rig of vessels;
gross tonnage; kind and quantity of gear used;
and volume, value, and method of capture of each
species. Craft having a capacity of 5 net tons
or over are called "vessels." As in the shore
fisheries, the availability of figures collected
by State fishery agencies may eliminate the ne-
cessity of Bureau agents collecting these data
for individual vessels. Information on the year
vessels were built was assembled for 1961.

Statistics on the quantity of gear operated
indicate the maximum number of units fished at
any one time during the year. Gear carried in
reserve for replacement is not reported.

All persons engaged in commercial fishing
operations are included as fishermen. In most
areas, fishermen not on vessels have been divid-
ed into "regular" and "casual". Regular fisher-
men are defined as those whoreceive more than
one-half their annual income from fishing, where-
as Ccasualfishermen are those who receive less
than one-half their annual compensation from
fishing. It has not been possible to separate
regular from casual fishermen on the Pacific
Coast.

Since 1942, the catch of fish and shellfish
has been credited to the port at which it was
landed. Prior to the survey for that year, it was
the practice of the Bureau to credit the entire
catch of a vessel to the principal port at which
fishor shellfish were unloaded, regardless of the
actual point of landing. This policy was dis-
continued since it quite often resulted in incon-
sistencies by crediting catches of some species
to areas far removed from localities in which they
are commonly taken. An outstanding example of
this is the southern trawl fishery conducted off
the New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and North
Carolina coasts. Some fishing vessels from New
England operate in this fishery for 6 to 10 weeks
during the winter season. Prior to the survey for
1942, the catch of these vessels, consisting prin-
cipally of fish common to Middle Atlantic waters,

was credited to Massachusetts. Under the pre-
sent system, this catchis creditedto the Middle
Atlantic ports where it is landed.

Since 1949 on the Pacific Coast and 1951 for
the remainder of the country, craft, fishermen, and
gear have been reported for each State in which
they fished. A total exclusive of duplication is
shown for each section and for the UnitedStates
as a whole. Prior to the surveys for 1949, each
craft on the Pacific Coast was credited to its
home port unless it did not fish from that port
during the year. In that case, it was credited
to the locality where it landed the greatest por-
tion of its catch. Prior to the survey for 1951,
each craft on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts and
interior waters was credited to the port where it
landed the greatest portion of its catch during the
year. This system was changed to provide more
accurate data on the total number of craft oper-
ating in a given State. With the increased mo-
bility of the fishing fleet in recent years, the
number of vessels fishing in more than one State
has increased greatly.

Beginning with data for 1951, the reporting
of units of gear was standardized so that nets or
lines made up of small units for ease inhandling,
but fastened together in fishing, were counted
asa single unitratherthan as anumberof small-
erunits. Prior to 1951, the small units were
sometimes counted as individual pieces of gear
even though they were combined for fishing.
This rule does not apply to halibut longlines or
setlines on the Pacific Coast. In this fishery,
each skate of gear is counted as one line, even
though fastened together in fishing, because the
International Pacific Halibut Commission uses
a skate of gear as a unit in its studies of fish-
ing intensity.

Beginning with 1962, only summary data
have been shown on the number of fishing gear
operated in the Great Lakes and the International
Lakes of northern Minnesota. These data appear
in the General Review section of the Digest in
the table "Summary of Operating Units." In de-
tailed operating unit tables for these lakes, the
number and size of gear have been replaced by
information on the fishing effort expendedin the
operation of each gear.

Publication of Data--Statistics on
employment in the fisheries, craft and gear en-
gaged, quantity and value of catch, and certain
data on industries related to the fisheries are
summarized according to geographic divisions
and published in bulletin form as soon as poss-—
ible after the completion of each survey. Later,
the figures, in more detail, are included in the

48 STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

annual statistical report of the Bureau entitled
"Fishery Statistics of the United States."

Data on the operating units (fishermen, fish-
ing craft, andgear) andcatch by counties for the
Atlantic and Gulf States have been includedin
these annual statistical reports for the years from
1928 to 1938 except for 1932. These datahave
also been published in the digests for the years
1945, 1950, 1955, and 1960. County data were
collected for the State in which surveys were
conducted during the years since 1938, except
for Maryland. Between 1942 and 1959 only op-
erating unit data by counties have been obtained
for Maryland. Complete data were obtained for
1960. County data assembled forthe years since
1938, which were not publishedinthe Digest, are
on file in the Washington office of the Bureau.

LOCAL AND SPECIAL SURVEYS

Landings at Certain Massachu-
setts Ports --Detailed statistics are collect-
ed on the landings of aquatic products by indi-
vidual fishing craft at Boston, Gloucester, New
Bedford, Plymouth, Provincetown, and other Cape
Cod ports. Bureau representatives are stationed
at the principal ports. They obtain figures on
the quantity and value of fish landed daily by
fishing craft, the dates of departure and arrival
of the craft, the gear used in their capture, the
grounds from which the fish were taken, and other
related information. The Bureau's Division of
of Biological Research and Branch of Market
News cooperate in the collection of these data.

Statistics on landings at the above ports are
released monthly and annually in bulletin form,
and summarydata are publishedin the annual sta-
tistical digest. Products of American fisheries
received duty free at Boston and Gloucester from
the treaty coasts of Newfoundland, MagdalenIs-
lands, and Labrador have not been included in
the landings at these ports since 1938. Data on
the landings at Boston and Gloucester have been
collected annually since 1893. Information on
landings at New Bedford has been collected an-
nually since 1938;and at Plymouth, Provincetown,
and other Cape Cod ports, since 1945.

Shad and Alewife Fisheries--Ow-
ing to the importance of the Hudson and Potomac

Rivers in the production of shad, surveys for stat-
istics on the catch, value of the catch, and oper-
ating units are made annually. On the Potomac
River, similar statistics are also obtained for the
alewife fishery. Much of the data required for
these surveys is available from the States fish-
ery agencies.

Annual data on the shad and alewife fish-
eries are not published separately in bulletin
form. However, a summary is published in the
annual statistical digest.

Statistics on the HudsonRiver shad fishery
are available for 1896, 1897, 1898, 1901, 1904,
1910, and continuously since 1915. Data for
the Potomac River shad fishery are available for
1896, 1901, 1904, 1909, 1915, from 1919 to
1942, inclusive, and continuously since 1944,
Statistics on the Potomac River alewife fishery
are available for 1896, 1909, 1915, from 1919
to 1942, inclusive, and continuously since
1944,

Pacific Halibut Fishery--Statistics
on the Pacific halibut fishery are obtained pri-
marily from the International Pacific Halibut
Commission, Beginning with data for 1956, the
fleet classification of halibut craft was revised
and vessels were credited in operating unit tables
to each district in which they landed fish; the
only exception being that U.S.vessels landing
at Prince Rupert, British Columbia, are credited
to Southeastern Alaska. Duplication of halibut
craft which operated in more than one district
has been eliminated in regional and national
totals. The catch by the halibut fleet is credited
to the port of landing except that fish landed by
U.S. halibut craft in British Columbia is credited
to Southeastern Alaska. Halibut statistics are
also included in the monthly and annual sum-
maries published by the Seattle Fishery Market
News Office. Statistics on the landings of hali-
but at Pacific Coast ports have been collected
since 1925.

South Atlantic and Gulf of Mex-
ico Shrimp Fishery--Detailed statistics
on the quantity and value of shrimp, by variety
and size, landed at South Atlantic and Gulf ports,
have been collected for the Gulf area since 1956
and the South Atlantic since 1957. Since 1956,
Bureau personnel have also obtained daily infor-
mation on the number of fishing trips, area and

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE 409

depth fished, and time spent in fishing by craft
landing at U.S. ports in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Branch of Market News, the Bureau's Branch
of Marine Fisheries of the Division of Biological
Research, and various fishery agencies of the
southern States cooperate in the collection of
these data.

Detailed monthly and annual summaries of
the statistics on shrimp catch and landings are
published in bulletin form and are summarized
in the annual statistical digests.

Hawaiian Fisheries-- The common
and scientific names of the species of fish and
shellfish landed in Hawaii are not included in
Section 15 of this report.

Historical Fishery Statistics--
The Bureau of Commercial Fisheries has in its
files and in various Bureau reports or publica-
tions of other organizations a large volume of
historical data on fisheries. Beginning with the
1951 Digest, a section entitled "Historical Fish-
ery Statistics, “ which includes complete histori-
cal information on selected species, has been
carried. There is published each year a listing
of the titles of the series of data appearing in
earlier editions.

Review of Certain Major Fisher -
ies--Beginning with 1942, tabulations con-
taining complete data on the catch of certain
major species have been included in a section
of the Digest entitled "Review of Certain Major
Fisheries." Although the data are included in
the detailed catch tables of the various States,
they are consolidatedin this section to provide
a single source of data for cod, haddock, hali-
but, Pacific mackerel, jack mackerel, menha-
den, Atlantic ocean perch, Pacific sardines,
salmon, tuna, oysters, clams, crabs, and
shrimp. Data on operating units inthe following
fisheries have likewise been consolidated in
this section: halibut, salmon troll line, Pacific
Coast tuna, menhaden purse seine, fish and
shrimp otter trawl.

Canned Fishery Products and In =
dustrial Products--Since 1921, the Bu-
reauhas made annual sectional surveys for sta-
tistics on canned and industrial fishery products.
These surveys are started the first week in Jan-
uary of each year for statistics on the production
in the preceding year. So far as possible, the
Bureau obtains by mail statistics on the annual
production of each domestic canned and indus-
trial fishery products plant. If it is impossible
to obtain the information by mail, the report is
secured by a Bureau representative. Included
in the data obtained are statistics on the yield
and value of the canned products by type of com-
modity, can size, and area of production, Data
on industrial products are obtained by commodity
and area of production. The value shown for
canned and industrial products is the gross
amount received by the packer at the production
point. No deductions are made for commissions
or expenses.

Annual statistical bulletins are issued on
this trade, and detailed data are publishedin the
statistical Digest. Prior to 1921, canned and
industrial products data were not collected for
the entire country. However, data on the pro-
duction of these products were usually obtained
for the areas in which general canvass surveys
were conducted.

Fish Mealand Oil--Dataare collect-
ed monthly on the domestic production of fish
meal, body oil, fish solubles, and homogenized
condensed fish. This information is released
monthly and annually in the Bureau's Current
Fishery Statistics series of bulletins.

Packaged Fish Trade--Statistics on
the annual production and value of fish packaged
in the United States, excluding the States of
Alaska and Hawaii, are obtained in conjunction
with the canned and industrial fishery products
survey. These data are released annually in
bulletin form and in the annual statistical di-
gest. Statistics on the production of packaged
fish are available for 1926 and annually since
1928, except that no data were collectedin Cali-
fornia for the years 1941 to 1946, inclusive.

Fish Sticks and Portions --Quart-
erly information is collected and published on

e STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

the production and value of cooked and raw fish
sticks and breaded, cooked, and raw fish por-
tions, and unbreaded fish portions. The data
are released inthe Bureau's Current Fishery Stat-
istics series of bulletins.

Cold-Storage Holdings of Fish--
Information on the monthly freezings and hold-
ings of fishery products is obtained from cold
storage warehouses by mail and by Bureau em-
ployees. Data are also obtained on the hold-
ings of certain cured fish. Bulletins showing
these statistics are issued monthly and annually.

Detailed cold-storage statistics also are
published in the Bureau's annual statistical di-
gest. Information regarding cold-storage hold-
ings of fishery products has been published since
1917 while data on the quantity of fish frozen
have been released for the years from 1920 to
1925, inclusive, and continuously since 1928.

Foreign Fishery Trade--Statistics
on foreign fishery trade are obtained from com-
pilations made by the Bureau of the Census, De-
partment of Commerce. Statistics on all known
imported or exported fishery products have been
assembled and published annually since 1926
in the Bureau's statistical digest. For earlier
years, figures are available in thereports of the
Bureau of the Census, Bureauof Foreign and Do-
mestic Commerce, the Bureau of Statistics, the
Department of Commerce and Labor, or the Treas-
ury Department.

PRACTICES AND TERMS

Certain practices and terms used in this re-
port are explained below.

Operating Units -- Operating units in-
clude persons employed in the fisheries, and
craft and gear engaged in the fisheries,

Vessel--Acraft having a capacity of 5
net tons or over.

Boat--A craft having a capacity of less
than 5 net tons,

Days Absent--In computing "days ab-
sent" for vessels landing fares at certain Mas-

sachusetts ports ,the day of arrival, but not the
day of departure,is included; thus, avessel leav-
ing port on the 8th of the month andreturning on
the 15thof the month will be credited with 7 days
absence. Prior to 1944, "days absent" included
both the day of departure and the day of arrival.

Days Fished--Incomputing "days fish-
ed" for fishing craft landing shrimp at Gulf of
Mexico ports, the total number of hours spent
in fishing effort has been divided by 24.

Fish--Theterm "fish" as used inthis re-
port includes all species belonging to the class

Pisces.

Shellfish, etc.--Ashellfish is an a-
quatic invertebrate animal having a shell, such
as a mollusk or crustacean. However, in order
to reduce the classifications appearing in the
catch tables, all items not properly listed as
"Pish" or "Whale Products" have been included
under "Shellfish, etc." Accordingly, turtles,
frogs, sponges, seaweed, and worms are in-
cluded under this classification.

Whale Products--Since data are not
available on the poundage of whales taken, stat-
istics appearing in catch tables on the yield of
these mammals represent the weight of products
produced such as meal, sperm oil, whale oil,
etc. The values shown represent the amount re-
ceived by the manufacturer for the products.

Incidental Catch--The term "incident-
al catch" refers to the catch of certain species
by a type of gear which ordinarily does not cap-
ture such species.

Percentages ~-~-Percentages are usually
shown as whole numbers. Fractions of percents
are droppedif less than five-tenths, and the per-
centage israisedto the next higher integerif the
fraction is greater than five-tenths. Ifthe frac-
tion is exactly five-tenths, odd integers are rais-
ed to the next even figure while even integers re-
main unchanged.

Converting -- Many ofthe figures shown
in the summary tables published herewith have
been converted to thousands of pounds or thou-
sands of dollars. In making these conversions
the sum of the items in atable israised or low-

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

ered to the nearest thousandin accordance with
standard statistical procedures. The individual
items are adjusted to conform to the total thus
obtained.

Confidential Data-- The statistical
data collected by the Bureau are confidential,
and unless specific authorization is given, are
not releasedin a manner that would divulge pri-
vate enterprise.

CONVERSION FACTORS

It is the policy of the Bureau to show detail-
ed catch figures of all products in pounds for the
sake of uniformity and for purposes of comparison.
This represents little difficulty in the case of
fish, since inveryrare instances are fishreport-
ed in units of measure other than pounds. For
shellfish, however, the units of measure may be
bushels, sacks, barrels, numbers, gallons of
meats, etc. So many units make standard-
ization difficult, and when combined with the
wide variation in the requirements or definitions
of some of these units in the various states, the
problem becomes even more complex.

All univalve and bivalve mollusks (except
fresh-water mussel shells) are reported in pounds

of meats in the detailed catch tables presented
in this report. In addition, there are included
supplementary tables for most of the sections,
which give data on the production in bushels.
These supplementary tables also give the pro-
duction innumber of certain other shellfish, such
as crabs. There also is included in the General
Review section of this report a table containing
data on the shell weight of univalve and bivalve
mollusks taken.

Oysters--Probably the greatest problem
in the presentation of fishery statistics in uni-
form units of measure is in the case of oysters.
Usually.the production of oysters on the Atlantic
and Gulf Coasts is reported to Bureau personnel
in bushels. Prior to the data obtained for the
year 1930, bushels were converted to pounds of
meats on the basis of a uniform yield of 7 pounds
of meats to the bushel. However, it was found
that there was considerable variation inthe yield
of oysters per bushel particularly in southern
states where the yieldhas ranged as low as half
the conversion factor used prior to 1930. There
follows a table which gives the measures used
for oysters in the various States and the average
yields perbushel. The statistical tables in this
report are based on these average yields.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

COASTLINE OF THE UNITED STATES

Graphic measurements on lengths of coastline and tidal shoreline of the United States
have been made from time to time by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey on maps of various
scales and in units of various lengths. Thethree types of measurement are explained in the
following paragraphs.

GENERAL COASTLINE .--The figures under this heading are lengths of the general out-

line of the seacoast.

The measurements were made with a unit measure of 30 minutes of lati-

tude on charts as nearthe scale of 1:1,200,000as possible. The shoreline of bays and sounds
is included to a point where such waters narrow to the width of the unit measure, and the
distance across at such point is included.

TIDAL SHORELINE, GENERAL .--Measurements under this heading were made with a unit
measure of 3 statute miles on charts of 1:200,000 and 1:400,000 scale whenavailable. The
shoreline of bays, sounds, and other bodies of water is included to a point where such waters
narrow to a width of 3 statute miles, and the distance across at such point is included.

TIDAL SHORELINE, DETAILED .--The figures under this heading were obtained in 1939-
40 with a recording measure on the largest scale maps and charts then available. Shoreline of

bays,

where such waters narrow to a width of 100 feet.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE
INLAND WATER AREAS BY STATES

Available information on the inland water surface area by States is listed below.

These

data include lakes, reservoirs and ponds having 40 acres or more of area; streams, sloughs, estu-
aries, and canals one-eighth of a statute mile or more in width; deeply indented embayments and
sounds, and other coastal waters behind or sheltered by headlands or islands separated by less than
1 nautical mile of water; andislands having less than 40 acres of area; does not include water sur-

face of the oceans, bays, the Gulf of Mexico, Long Island Sound, Puget Sound, and the Straits of
Juan de Fuca and Georgia.

Most of the inlandwaters are freshwater. There is no specificcriterion for distinguishing
between fresh waterand saline water. The saline lakes are mainly in the Great Basin (nearly all of
Nevada, the westernhalf of Utah, and parts of Oregon, California, Idaho, and Wyoming,) which has
no outlet to the ocean. In addition much of the waternear the coast may range from fresh to salty,
depending upon the geography of the area and to fluctuations in the tide.

SECTION 16 - PICTORIAL SECTION

Asmany of the readers of this publication may not be familiar with all of the species
of fish and shellfish, etc., taken commercially in the United States, illustrations of
many of the various species are includedin the following pages. The descriptive mater-
ial appearing with each species includes the areas in which commercial landings are
made in the UnitedStates and does not constitute the extreme limits in which they occur.
Similarly, the gear listed for each species do not represent the only types of apparatus
by which these species are obtained, butrepresent those types which are normally used
in their capture. The gear do not necessarily appear in the order of their importance.
Illustrations of species landed in Hawaii are not included in this section.

For more detailed information on the nomenclature of the fishery products listed
below, the reader is referred to Section 15 of this publication entitled, "Glossary."
