Fishery Statistics of tlie United States and Alaska are compiled and published annuallyto make available information on both the economic and biological aspects of the domesticcommercial fisheries.

Data on the economic aspects are necessary to persons engaged in the commercial fisheryand to governmental agencies concerned with its regulation and protection. Those heregiven cover the total catch and value by species, the yield and value of manufacturedproducts and byproducts, the employment of men, craft, and gear in the capture of fisheryproducts; and related information.

From the biological standpoint these data are important to sound fishery management in

providing detailed information on fluctuations in the commercial catch by species, local-ity and gear; and on the types of gear and boats operated. They assist conservationagencies in regulating the commercial fisheries so as to produce maximum yields withoutdep I et i on.

Previous statistical reports on the fishery industries were issued under the Depart-ment of the Interior in the Administrative Report series for 1936 and in the StatisticalDigest series for succeeding years. Reports for preceding years were issued in theAdministrative Report series of the former Bueau of Fisheries.

INTRODUCTION

This report contains a review of the fishery statistics for the year 1946, coll ected

by the Branch of Commercial Fisheries during 1947. These include data on the volume of

the catch of fishery products and their value, employment in the fisheries, quantity of

gear operated, the number of fishing craft employed in the capture of fishery products,and certain information on the voluTie and value of the production of manufactured fisheryproducts and byproducts.

Statistical surveys for 1946 data were conducted in all sections except the MississippiRiver States. Statistics on the various fisheries were collected by the following fieldagents: F. Freeland H. Haberland, D. A. McKown, C. B. Tendick, J. P. Wharton, R. H.

Wilson, and F. M. Wood. The surveys in the New England States were supervised by B. E.

Lindgren, and those in Washington and Oregon by E. C. Hinsdale. Data for the Great Lakeswere assembled by the staff of Dr. John Van Oosten of the Division of Fishery Biology.Those on the fisheries of Alaska were collected by the Alaska Division of the Service.

The statistical surveys conducted during 1947, for 1946 data, were under the generaldirection of E.A. Power, Chief, Statistical Section, assisted by D.Y. Aska, Statistician.The survey material was assembled, tabulated, and prepared for publication by the staffof the Statistical Section under the direction of C. E. Peterson, Statistician, assistedby Elsie English, Evelyn Hecht, MelissaTinkey, R. M. Wilkin son. R. J. LaRochelleandS. R. Feldman, G. 1. Sundstrom prepared many of the illustrations contained in thereport

.

In assembi i ng the data on the fisheries, use was made of al I records col lected by thevarious State fishery agencies. In the Great Lakes and the Pacific Coast States, theserecords were such that it was only necessary for the Service personnel to conduct partial

surveys. Statistics on the imports and exports of fishery products were furnished by theBureau of the Census.

Grateful acknowledgement is extended to the State and Federal agencies and to thevarious individuals who cooperated in furnishing portions of the data contained in thisvo I ume.

SECTION 1.- GENERAL REVIEW

Surveys covering the catch of fish and shellfish for the year 1946 were made in all

areas except New Hampshire, New Jersey, Delaware, the South Atlantic and Gulf States, and

the Mississippi River and its tributaries. All of these areas, except the MississippiRiver and its tributaries, were canvassed for 1945, and detailed data published in"Fishery

Statistics of the United States, 1945" (Statistical Digest No. 18). The most recent data

available for the Mississippi River and its tributaries are for 1931. In the following

tables, the most recent employment, operating unit, and catch statistics are shown for

each section of the country.

During 1946, wartime problems of the fishing industry were gradually replaced by post-

war problems. Availability of material and manpower increased, but costs of operationrose also. With the suspension of price controls on most fishery products, prices of themore popular items rose spectacularly. Consumer resistance to high prices caused coldstorage stocks of some items to rise to record highs. This in turn caused fishing forcertain species to either be stopped or curtailed until prices and demand had becomeadjusted. The adjustment of supply to demand was made gradually with less disruption tothe industry than many had feared. This probably was due to the fact that the demand formost fishery products remained higher than had been anticipated.

The number of new vessels entering the fishing industry continued to rise sharply in

1946. The average number of vessels obtaining their first documents as fishing craftduring the five year prewar period 1936-1940 was 365. During 1945, the number increasedto 741, and during 1946, to 1,085. Complete data is not available on the total number ofvessels engaged in fishing during 1946. In 1945, there were 6,929 vessels so engaged,and this number undoubtedly increased in 1946. The newer and, in many cases, largervessels entering the industry raised the general level of efficiency of the fleet. Thefollowing table shows the number of vessels obtaining their first documents as fishingcraft since 1937. These vessels were either new craft, or vessels that had not previouslybeen documented for fishing.

The total catch of fishery p roduct s i n t he United States and Alaska i n 1946 was si ight ly

smaller than in the previous year, and was far less than the record catch of 1941. How-

ever, the value of the landings was higher than in any previous year. Landings of pil-

chard declined sharply, and were surpassed by menhaden for the first time since 1932.

The catch of pilchard dropped to 53 1 million pounds, compared with 850 million pounds

the previous year, and the 1936 record yield of 1-1/2 billion pounds. Available data

indicate that the 1946 catch of menhaden, which amounted to 920 million pounds, estab-

lished a new record for this specie^. The production of cod totaled 103 mi I I ion pounds

—

50 mill ion pounds less than in 1945, while the catch of tuna est abli shed a new record of

222 million pounds— an increase of 36 million pounds over the p rev ious year's production.

The total catch of fishery products in the United States and Alaska, as based on the

most recent surveys available through 1946, amounted to 4,403,282,000 pounds, valued at

$286,117,772 to the fishermen. However, if 1946 data had been available for all areas,

it is estimated that the catch would have been found to total about 4,456,000,000 pounds.

GENERAL REVIEW

valued at $3 10,000,000. The following table, which contains recorded production for the

areas in which surveys were made and estimates for other areas, indicates the trend of

the yield and value of the domestic catch during recent years.

It is estimated that 1, 674 million pounds of fish (round weight basis) i«ere marketed as

fresh and frozen products, 1, 277 mi I I ion pounds wens used forcanning, I ,405 mi I I ion pounds

for byproducts and bait, and 100 mi I I ion pounds for cured products during 1946. The

amount used for byproducts, bait, and canning increased slightly over 1945, while the

quantity used for fresh and frozen decreased sharply.

The production of canned fishery products in the United States and Alaska during 1946

amounted to 699,375,511 pounds, valued at $227,629,455, and the output of fishery by-

products had a sales value at processors' level of $76,642,850. The yield of cannedfishery products and fishery byproducts set new records although the poundage of cannedproducts was lower than in 1936 and 1941.

The frozen fish trade was very active throughout the year, with total freezings

amounting to 280,065,000 pounds. This was approximately 6 million pounds less than was

frozen in the prev iousyear, but still far more than any other earlier year.

The value of United States foreign trade in fishery products increased 41 percent,compared with the previous year. The value of imports advanced from 101 million dollarsin 1945 to 130 mi I I ion dol I a rs in 1946. During the same period the value of exports i n-

c reased from 39 million dollars to 68 million dollars. Among the more i mport ant i mpo rts

registering sizeable increases were fresh herring, groundfish fillets, shrimp, and spinylob ster tails; canned sardines, fish cakes, and balls; pickled herring; cod liver oil; andsponges. The largest increases in expo rt s occu rred in shipments of canned fishery pro-ducts, and in fish oi Is and concentrates. Exports of canned salmon, sardines, ground-fish, herring and unclassified shellfish (principally canned squid) all showed largega i ns.

A review of the fisheries of each geographical area will be found at the beginning ofeach section in this volume. Summaries of the more important specific fisheries wi I I befound in Section 10. Summarized data of the operating Units and catch have been pre-viously published in Current Fisheries Statistics No. 487.

The pack of canned fishery products in 1946 totaled 699,375,511 pounds valued at$227,629,455 at processors' level. This was an increase of 53 million pounds 'and 75 mil-lion dollars compared with 1945. Production of canned salmon decreased from 1945 whilethe packs of tuna, clams, and crab meat set new records. The output of canned oystersand shrimp increased substantially, but was still far below prewar averages.

The quantity of meal and scrap processed in 1946 (399,242,000 pounds, valued at$20,439,423) was slightly less than in 1945, although the value was 42 percent greater.The yield of fish and marine animal oils (152,7 21,836 pounds, valued at $34, 702, 13 2) was18 percent below the previous year, but the value was 27 percent greater.

The quantity of packaged fish packed during 1946, excluding the production in Cali-fornia, totaled 188,572, 082 pounds, valued at $46,302,338 at processors' level. Th i s was16 mi I I ion pounds and 2 million dollars below the record 1945 production. Data on theproduction of packaged fish in the fol lowing table are si ightly larger than those in thePackaged Fish Section of this Digest, as that section contains data for continentalUnited States only, while the following table includes data for Alaska.

GENERAL REVIEW

CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS AND BYPRODUCTS

The output of canned fishery products and byproducts in the United States and Alaska

in 1946 was valued at $504,272,305 at the processors' level. This was slightly less than

in the record year, 1945, but 90 million dollars above the previous record amount received

for these products' in 1944. Canned products accounted for $227,629,455 of the 1946 pro-

duction and byproducts, $76,642,850.

Demand for most canned products and byproducts was exceptionally good, especially dur-

ing the first part of the year. All remaining price controls were removed during the

year, encouraging production and raising the value of the output. Although tin conser-

vation controls remained, they were liberalized to a point where they did not hinder pro-

duction. However, supplies of cans were sufficiently low to cause concern, although

little, if any, actual loss of production could be charged to shortages of containers.

Shipping cartons and boxes remained scarce throughout the year.

During 1946, fishery products were canned in 456 plants, 7(= more than in 1945. The

combined output of these pi ants amounted to 20, 486, 164 standard cases or 699, 37 5, 51 I

pounds, an increase of 8 percent above the net weight of the pack in the previous year.

Three items, salmon, 221

, 55 1,728 pounds, sardines, 195,287,902 pounds, and tuna, 95,887,781

pounds, accounted for 73 percent of the total net weight of the pack.

Fishery byproducts were processed in 287 plants, 53 less than in 1945. Marine animal

oil, $54,702,132, and marine animal scrap and meal, $20,439,423, accounted for 72 percent

of the value of the production.

Canned fishery products and byproducts were prepared in 26 states and Alaska during1946. California ranked first in value of products, followed by Alaska, Washington, and

Maine in that order.

PACKAGED FISH

The total production of fresh and frozen packaged fish (fillets, steaks, pan-dressed,etc.) in the United States during 1946 is estimated to have totaled about 196 millionpounds, compared with 215 million pounds in the previous year. Complete information on

the production of packaged fish was not available since data were not collected in Cali-fornia. However, it is estimated that the 1946 production in that State amounted to 7.5million pounds.

The yield of packaged fish in the coastal and Great Lakes regions, excluding Cali-

fornia, amounted to 188,480,086 pounds, valued at $46,282,538, compared with 204,926,699

pounds, valued at $48,370,703, in 1945. The spectacular increase in the quantity of

rosefish processed, was not sufficient to offset decreased production of packaged cod,

haddock, hake, mackerel, rockfish, and whiting.

Rosefish fillets, with a production of 49,507,340 pounds, was the largest single item

of packaged fish produced in 1946. Haddock fillets (42,440,850 pounds) and various forms

of packaged whiting (22,128,671 pounds) were the second and third in importance. Fillets

accounted for 88 percent of the total; pan-dressed fish, 9 percent; split "butterfly"fish, 2 percent; and steaks, I percent.

Due to the importance of the groundfish fishery in New England, that area produced 78

percent (152,884,848 pounds) of the 1946 domestic production of packaged fish. ThePacific Coast, (excluding California) was second with 15,462,899 pounds, followed by the

Middle Atlantic States with 14,436,858 pounds.

Statistics in this section cannot be correlated directly with those published in thesection on manufactured fishery products, as that section includes a smal I production in

Alaska which is not included in the following tables. The following data have been pre-

viously published in "Current Fishery Statistics No. 388"

FROZEN FISH TRADEFISH FROZEN

A total of 280,065,393 pounds of fishery products were frozen during 1946 by domestic

freezing plants that reported their activities to the Fish and Wildlife Service. This

was approximately 6 million pounds less than the record production in the p rev ious year.

In 1946, 84 percent of the freezings consisted of salt-water fish; 13 percent, shell-

fish; and 3 percent, fresh-water fish. Seven items accounted for 55 percent of the total

poundage frozen. These were rosefish fillets, which comprised 16 percent of the total;

halibut, II percent; shrimp, 9 percent; haddock fillets, 7 percent; and whiting fillets,

fall or chum salmon, and silver salmon, 4 percent each. The quantity of rosefish fillets

frozen was nearly 18 million pounds more than during the previous year. This increase

was more than offset by a decrease of nearly 16 million pounds inthe freezings of various

forms of whiting, and smaller declines in cod fillets, lake herring and cisco, tuna, and

other items.

According to geographical sections, the New England States led all othe

the freezings of fishery products, accounting for 47 percent of the total,

second with 18 percent, followed by the Pacific Coast States with 14 percent

other sections in

Al aska ranked

enced some sales resistance as prices rose to new highs. In New England, during the

latter part of the year, fishing vessels were held in port on several occasions as the

cold storage plants were glutted. These tieups were fortunately of short duration, as

demand picked up with the resumption of more realistic prices.

SECTION 2.- NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

(Area XXII)^

During 1946, wartime difficulties eased somewhat, but they were replaced by pos,twar

problems of almost equal magnitude. Most of the large trawlers fishing out of Boston

were tied up for nearly five months, from December 28, 1945 to May 24, 1946, by a dis-

pute over the distribution of shares for the vessel and fishermen. Some of the newer

vessels had contracts which were sat i sf acto'-y to the fishermen, and these vessels, as well

as the smal I and med i um t raw I ers. continued to fish. Price ceilings on most f i shery pro-

ducts were suspended for 90 days on May 20 and removed on August 18. Prices on the more

popular varieties of fish advanced sharply when ceilings were suspended, while others

failed to rise and some even declined. Consumer resistance to high prices caused cold

storage stocks of some species, notably rosefish (ocean perchl to rise to record heights.

Storage facilities in Gloucester were over-taxed to a point where it was necessary to

stop fishing operations while part of the frozen fish was sold and moved into consumption

channels. During the summer months, catches of cod, whiting, and mackerel were placed on

limits and fishing craft were required to layover in port between trips. Imports of

groundfish fillets continued to rise, which increased competition in the sale of the New

Eng 1 and f i 1 lets. The number of f i shi ng c raft and the quant ity of gear ut i I i zed i ncreased

during the year. With the release of additional men from the armed services, and the

lessening employment in war industries, the number of men and women available for employ-

ment in the fishing industry increased to a point where labor shortages were practically

overcome.

Surveys covering the catchoffish and shellfish were conducted inMaine, Massachusetts,

Rhode Island, and Connecticut for 1946. No survey was conducted for that year for NewHampshire, so 1945 catch data for that state have been included. This has little effect

on the New England total as New Hampshire normally accounts for less than one percent of

the total. No surveys were made of operating units in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, or

Rhode Island for 1946.

The yield of the commercial fisheries of the New England States during 1946 amounted

to 805,562,600 pounds, valued at $62,071,876 to the fishermen making this the most valu-

able catch in the history of the fishery. The 1946 catch decreased 5 percent in quatitity

but increased 10 percent in value compared with 1945. The quantity of fish and shellfishlanded in Maine and Connecticut was larger in 1946 than in the preceding year while it

was smaller in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The value was greater in each state thanin the previous year.

There were large variations in the landings of the major species. Rosefish I oceanperch) production set a new record, and the haddock catch was_the largest since 1939.

However, landings of cod were over 52 mi I 1 ion pounds belo\v the previous year's catch,and production of whiting decreased nearly 27 million pounds

The production of packaged fish in the New England States in 1946 decreased 5 percentin volume, but increased 2 percent in value compared with 1945. The large increase in

the yield of rosefish locean perchl fillets was mo re than offset by the decrease in thequantity of cod and whiting packaged. The most important item, both in quantity andvalue, was rosefish (ocean perch) fillets.

The production of canned fish and fishery byproduct s i n t hese States in 1946 was valuedat $36,870, 126. This represents an increase of 58 percent compared with 1945. The mostimportant item was canned sardines. The pack of these fish amounted to 3,018,597 standardcases, valued at $19,548,531, which made this the most valuable ever canned in this area.

A total of 60 plants were engaged in producing canned fishery products and 29 plants in

producing fishery byproducts.

NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturingindustries was made for 1940. In that year, 186 men were employed in the operation of84 vessels engaged in the transporting trade, and 12,650 persons were employed in whole-sale and manufacturing establishments. The latter employees received $7,547,395 in sala-ries and wages during 1940. Detailed statistics on these branches of the industry for1940 can be found in Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1944 (Statistical DigestNo. 161.

The following tables contain a composite summary of the operating units for Maine andConnecticut for 1946 and for New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island for 1945, aswe I I as detai I ed data on the 1946 catch in all of these states, except New Hampsh i re.Condensed summary data of the operating units and catch by states of the New Englandfisheries, appearing in the following pages, have been previously published in CurrentFishery Statistics No. 480. Detailed data of the 1945 catch and operating units can befound in Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1945 (Statistical Digest No. 18).

This number was assigned to this area by the Horth American Council art Fishery Inves-tigations. It should be explained that there are included in this area craft whose prin-cipal fishing ports are m the area but at times fish elsewhere. A notable example isthe southern trawl fishery which extends into Area XXIV.

CONNECTICUT : CATCH BY GEAR, 1946


LANDINGS AT CERTAIN NEW ENGLAND PORTS

Because of the importance of the ports of Portland, Maine, and Boston, Gloucester, NewBedford, and Cape Cod ports in Massachusetts, as landing points for fishery products, de-

tailed monthly statistics have been collected on these landings and are presented on thefollowing pages. Data on the ports located on Cape Cod were not included in earlieryears. The statistics in the following tables include landings by fishing craft of all

sizes at the ports named.

It should be noted that these figures represent actual landings which have not beenconverted to round weight. Therefore the data are not directly comparable to the catchfigures shown in the General Review, regional tabulations, and the "Review of CertainMajor F i sheri es".

During 1946, landings of fishery products at Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, Cape Codports, and Portland by all fishing craft totaled 543,469,053 pounds, val ued at $40, 807,424.This represents a decrease of 4 percent in quantity but an increase of II percent in

value, compared with 1945. For the fourth successive year, landings at Gloucester ex-ceeded those at Boston, although Boston continued to lead in the value of the production.Gloucester and Portland landings showed increases in 1946 over those of 1945, while thelandings at the other ports registered moderate declines.

The fishing fleet operating on the fishing banks of the North Atlantic and landingfares at Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, Cape Cod ports, and Portland during 1946 num-bered 1,389 craft of all sizes. Of these, 268 landed in one or more of the Cape Codports. There may be some duplication between the craft operating out of Cape Cod portsand those landing at the other ports. The catch listed in the following tables does notrepresent the entire catch of these vessels, since some of them also landed fares atother New England ports, at New York City, and at more southerly ports in connection withthe southern trawl and mackerel fisheries.

Of the total landings, amounting to over 543 million pounds, 23 percent was caught byI arge otter t rawl s, 47 percent by med i urn otter t raw I s, 19 percent by small otter t raw I s,

6 percent by purse seines, and the remaining 5 percent by other types of gear. The per-centage landed by large otter t rawl s was smallerthan in 1945, due primarily to the tie-up of most of the large otter trawlers in Boston during the first 4-1/2 months of theyear. These vessels were kept in port by a dispute over the distribution of the proceedsfrom the sale of the catch between the vessel owners and the fishermen.

Roserish (ocean perch) accountBd for twenty-n i ne percent of the total landings; haddock,23 percent; and cod, 13 percent. The percentage of rosefish (ocean perch) rose markedly,with most of the increase being taken on the distant banks off central and northeasternNova Scotia. Landings of haddock did not change materially from 1945, while the amountof cod brought in was 44 mi I

I ion pounds less than during the previous year.

The following tables contain detailed information on the landings of fish and shell-fish by fishing craft of all sizes in Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford, Cape Cod ports,and Portland. Preliminary information on the landings by ports has been published inCurrent Fishery Statistics No. 320, while data on the landings by gear and area can befound in Current Fishery Statistics No. 402.

3 The reader is referred to Section 12 of this document for an account of the years forwhich surveys of these fisheries have been made.

SECTION 3.- MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES

ikrea XXIIIl''

Due to reduced appropriations, it was necessary to restrict the surveys of the fish-

eries of the Middle Atlantic States for 1946 to the State of New York. In order to pre-

sent complete data on this section, summarized data on the fisheries of New Jersey and

Delaware for 1945 have been incorporated with the data on New York for 1946 in the Sec-

tional Summar i es.

During 1946, the problems facing the fishing industry in the Middle Atlantic States

gradually changed from problems of increasing production to meet the war-created demand

to those of marketing the catch at a profitable level. The demand remained high on many

of the more popular varieties, even in the face of higher prices, but other varieties

were faced' with reduced demand even with prices below former ceilings. Whiting was es-

pecially hard to sell on the reg u I ar markets, so I arge auant i t i es of this spec i es were

trucked to the Chesapeake States for canning. The demand for scallops, swordfish, haddock

and oysters remained high, although the distribution pattern changed with the removal of

price ceilings. While price ceilings were in effect, these products usually went to

favored customers or were used to sell other less desirable products. After removal of

ceilings, prices advanced and distribution generally was on a price basis.

Available manpower in this region did not increase as much as anticipated due to the

failure of some men returning from the armed services to reenter the fishing industry.

Many of the younger men decided to further their education with Government aid, whileothers went into other industries.

Although it was not possible to conduct a general statistical canvass of the fisheries

of New Jersey and Delaware for 1946 data, information was obtained on the catch of men-haden in each of the Middle Atlantic States in connection with the byproducts survey ofthe area. The catch of these fish totaled 479,199,200 pounds, 30 percent larger than therecord catch of 1945. Despite the large production of menhaden products, the demand forfish meal and oil remained high throughout the year.

The production of fish and shel I f i sh in the marine and coastal areas of New York dur-ing 1946 totaled 141,057,600 pounds, valued at $14,126,939 to the fishermen. This repre-sents an increase of 20 percent in quantity and 41 percent in value compared with thep rev ious year. While this is less than half the catch recorded for the state In 1 880, i t

is the largest catch in any year for which records are available since 1921. The increasein the volume of the catch was primarily due to larger landings of menhaden, whiting,cod, hard clams, and surf clams. Fifty-three percent of the 1946 New York landings wasaccounted for by menhaden, but due to its low average price, it represented only 7 per-cent of the total value. The most valuable items were clams and oysters, each of whichrepresented 27 percent of the total value of the catch.

The production of canned fish and fishery byproducts in New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl-vania and Delaware in 1946 was valued at $20,791,860 to the processor, compared with$12,228,557 in 1945. The most valuable items were menhaden oil, menhaden meal, andcanned clam products. A total of I I plants were engaged in producing canned fisheryproducts and 4 1 plants in producing byproducts.

The quantity of packaged fish processed in the Middle Atlantic States decreased from16,450,997 pounds in 1945 to 14,525,774 pounds in 1946. Haddock and flounders were themost important varieties packaged, in both quantity and value.

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturingindustries in the Middle Atlantic States was made for 1940. In that year, 215 men wereemployed in the operation of 72 vessels and boats engaged in the transporting trade and

^ This number uas assigned to this area by the Nort h American Council on Fishery Inves-tigations. It should be explained that there are included in this area craft whose prin-cipal fishing ports are in the area but at times fish el seuihere. A notable example isthe southern trawl fishery which extends into Area XXIV.

MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES

5,880 persons were employed in wholesale and manufacturing establishments. The latteremployees received $6,736,554. in salaries and wages during 1940. Detailed statistics on

these branches of the industry for that year can be found in Fishery Statistics of TheUnited States, 1944, (Statistical Digest No. 16).

The following tables contain a composite summary of catch and operating units for New

York for 1946, and New Jersey and Delaware for 1945, as well as detailed data on the 1946

catch and operating units in New York. Condensed summary data on the operating units and

catch-of the New York fisheries in 1946, appearing in the following pages, have been pre-viously published in Cur rent Fishery Statistics No. 469. Detai led data on the 1945 catchand operating units of the Middte Atlantic fisheries can be found in Fishery Statisticsof the United States, 1945 (Statistical Digest No. 18).

HUDSON RIVER SHAD FISHERY'

The shad fishery of the Hudson River in 1946 gave employment to 936 fishermen, whotool< 2,972,143 pounds of shad valued at $459,184 to the fishermen. This represented a

decrease of 14 percent in weight and 9 percent in value, compared with 1945. The averageprice per pound received by fishermen in 1946 was 15.4 cents compared with 14.5 cents thep rev ious year.

Stake g i I I nets accounted fo r 7 I percent of the production by weight; drift gill nets,28 percent; and haul seines, the remaining I percent.

Statistics of the operating units and catch of shad in the Hudson River by New Yorkfisherman are also included in the operating unit and catch data for the State of NewYork.

5 The reader is referred to Section 12 of this document for an account of the years forwhich surveys of this fishery have been made.

LANDINGS AT NEW YORK CITY

Landings of fishery products at New York City during 1946 by fisining craft of allsizes amounted to 18,064,841 pounds. This was 9 percent above the 1945 landings, re-versing a downward trend that began in 1940 when the landings dropped to 31.3 millionpounds from 40.9 million pounds in 1939.

Ninety-one percent of the New York City landings consisted of fish, and nine percentof shellfish. In the previous year, shellfish accounted for only five percent of therecefpts. The increase in the importance of shellfish was primarily due to the doublingof the sea scallop landings. The more important species landed at New York City werehaddock, 7,529,995 pounds; fluke, 2,031,845 pounds; scup, 1,881,464 pounds;cod, 1,485,764pounds; and scallops, 1,407,924 pounds.

LANDINGS AT NEW YORK CITY, 1938 - 1946

SECTION 4.- CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

(Area XXIII)

During 1946, the production of fish and shellfish in the Chesapeake States increased

for the fourth' successive year, but post-war marketing problems arose and became acute

during the latter part of the year. Rising production costs, stemming from more compe-

tition for raw products, increased wages, and higher prices for supplies, ran head on into

consumer resistance to high prices with disastrous results during October and November.

Crab meat and oyster sales were hit hardest during the 45 days following the decontrol of

meat. More or less normal marketing of these products was resumed during the final month

of the year, although the prices fai led to return to those prevai I ing previous to that

time. With the return of a buyer's market, increasing interest was evident in quality

control, packages with eye-appeal, sales promotion, and new products. A number of firms

began shipping seafoods, particularly oysters, by air to the midwestern markets. A num-

ber of new firms entered the industry, and many of the older firms expanded their plants

during the year. This expansion was particularly noticeable in the case of firms build-

ing their own cold-storage warehouses in conjunction with their regular packing plants.

There was increased emphasis on the production of canned fish during 1946. Packs of all

species increased over the previous year, and two new species, sea trout and I ittle tuna,

were processed. A high mortality rate for oysters on certain bars in upper ChesapeakeBay was reported and caused alarm, but apparently it did not material ly decrease the

catch during that year. Effects of this may, however, show up in later years.

The 1946 catch of fish and shellfish in the Chesapeake States (Maryland and Virginia)

totaled 359,946,000 pounds, valued at $27, 198,823 to the fishermen. This represents a

rise of 18 percent in quantity, but a decrease of 10 percent in value, compared with 1945.

The total production during this year was the largest recorded for any year for whichstatistics are available since 1920. The total value was the second highest on record.

The yield of fish and shellfish in Maryland during 1946 increased 16 percent in quan-

tity but decreased 2 percent in value compared with 1945. In Virginia, the yield in-

creased 19 percent in quantity while decreasing 14 percent in value.

Landings of menhaden, which were 67 percent larger than in 1945, were the largestsince 1941. Menhaden was by far the most important species from the standpoint of quan-tity, accounting for 41 percent of the total catch but due to its low price, the fishaccounted for only 5 percent of the total value. The catch of hard crabs rose 40 percentfrom the previous year, and was the largest since 1939. The quantity of oysters caughtincreased 2 percent, while the value decreased 12 percent, compared with 1945. Oystersand crabs were not under price control, but their price was directly affected by priceand ration controls on meat, other fishery products, and poultry.

The quantity of packaged fish processed increased from 760,700 pounds in 1945 to1,315,114 pounds in 1946. Increases occurred in most of the varieties packaged. Themost important items were pan-dressed and fillets of sea trout and pan-dressed croakers.

The production of canned fish and fishery byproducts in Maryland and Virginia during1946 was valued at $8,539,649 to the packer. This represents an increase of 150 percentcompared with 1945. The most valuable individual item was canned whiting, although thecombined value of menhaden meal and oil was much greater. A total of 20 plants wereengaged in canning fishery products in 1946 and a similar number of plants were used forprocessing fishery byproducts.

This number has been assigned to this area by the North American Council of FisheryInvestigations. 'It should be explained that there may be included under this area, craftwhose principal fishing ports are m this area but at times fish el sewhere. Data on the

operating units and catch of the fisheries of Maryland have been taken largely from sta-

tistics collected by the Maryland Department of Tidewater Fisheries. A portion of the

data on the fisheries of Virginia have likewise been obtained from the Virginia Commission

of Fisheries. Supplementary surveys, compilations , and analyses , have been made by agents

of this Service m order that the figures may be p resented m a manner comparable withthose of other sections.

132 CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturingindustries was for 1940. In that year, 1,023 men were employed in the operation of 544vessels engaged in the transporting trade and 12,33 1 persons were employed in wholesale

and manufacturing establishments. The latter employees received $3,552,827 in salariesand wages during 1940. Detailed statistics on these branches of the industry for 1940can be found in "Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1944" (Statistical Digest No.

16).

The following tables contain summarized and detailed information on the 1946 catch and

operating units of Maryland and Virginia. Condensed summary data of the operating units

and catch by states of the Chesap«al<e Fisheries, appearing in the fol lowing pages, have

been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 468.

SECTION 5.- SOUTH ATLANTIC AND GULF FISHERIES

(South Atlantic. Area XXIV; Gulf. Area .XXV)'^

Due to budgetary I imitations, no general canvass was conducted on the fisheries of the

South Atlantic and Gulf States (North Carolina, South Carolina, Geo rg i a,F I ori da, Alabama,

Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas) for the year 1946. During 1945, the last year for

which a survey was made, the total catch in these states amounted to 746,026,900 pounds,

valued at $54,330,033 to the fishermen. Of this catch menhaden accounted for 320.784,600

pounds, valued at $2,170,648.

In conducting the nation-wide canned fish and Syproducts survey for 1946, informationwas obtained on the total quantity of menhaden used for reduction purposes in the SouthAtlantic and Gulf States. Since nearly the entire catch of these fish is used in themanufacture of oil and meal the poundage used for reduction may be considered the totallandings of these fish. The quantity of menhaden taken during 1946 in the South AtlanticStates totaled 291,654,350 pounds, valued at $2,709,175. Compared with the previous yearthis represents a decrease of 9 percent in poundage, but an increase of 25 percent in

val ue.

The demand for fish meal and oi I remained high throughout the year, the prices roserapidly after ceilings were removed. The removal of price ceilings on shrimp in May re-

sulted in prices advancing to record highs. The canning of shrimp was conducted on a

much larger scale than for several years, and competition for fresh and frozen shrimp in-

.creased. The pattern of distribution of shrimp changed with the removal of price ceil-ings. Prior to that time, distribution was frequently limited to favored customers.However, with the increase in competit'ron for the product, and the removal of price re-strictions, sales were usually made to the buyer offering the highest price.

Another result of the removal of price ceilings was the increased interest in thecanning of oysters and crab meat. Price controls on these two items were removed late in

1945. The 1946 pack of canned crab meat was the largest in history, while that of cannedoysters was the largest since 1942.

The production of canned fish and fishery byproducts in the South Atlantic and GulfStates during 1946 was valued at $22,475,274. This represents an increase of 114 percentcompared with 1945. The most valuable individual items were canned shrimp, canned oys-ters, menhaden meal, canned crab meat, and menhaden oil in that order. A total of 60plants were engaged in canning fishery products during 1946, and 62 plants were used forprocessing fishery byproducts.

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturing

industries was made in 1940. In that year, 677 men were employed in the operation of 333

vessels and boats engaged in the transporting trade and 18,926 persons were employed in

wholesale and manufacturing establishments. The latter employees received a total of

$3,814,342 in salaries and wages in 1940. Detailed statistics on these branches of the

industry for 1940 can be found in "Fishery Stat i st i cs of the United States, 1944" (Statis-

tical Digest No. 16) .

Detailed statistics covering the fisheries of the South Atlantic and Gulf States dur-

ing 1945 can be found in "Fishery Statistics of the United States" (Statistical Digest

No. 18). Condensed summary data of these fisheries appear in the following tables

' These numbers were assigned to these areas by the North Atlantic Council on FisheryInve stigations. While the catch of fishery product s m Lake Okeechobee is included mthe Florida catch tables, the catch of the Hi ssi ssippi liver and tri butane s does not

appear in this section.

TARPON SPRINGS SPONGE FISHERY

During 1946, a total of 156,916 pounds of sponges, valued at $2,945,851, were sold on

the Exchange at Tarpon Springs, Florida. This was a decrease of 23 percent in poundage,

but an increase of 8 percent in value compared with the transactions on the Exchange in

1945.

Sales of sponges on the Exchange during 1946 were as follows: large wool, 16,588

pounds, valued at $616,590; small wool, 19,038 pounds, valued at $505,402; wool rags,

63,273' pounds, valued at $1,468,698; yellow, 11,925 pounds, valued at $112,863; and

grass, 46,092 pounds, valued at $242,278.

SECTION 6.- PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

The year 1946 was a period showing wide fluctuations in the fishing industry of the

Pacific Coast. In northern California (Monterey and San Francisco Districts), the run of

pilchard or sardines was the poorest in history so most of the fleet went south to San

Pedro during the latter part of the season. Landings in the San Pedro district rose to

unprecedented heights, and fishing vessels were placed on limit during most of the season

as processing facilities in the area were inadequate. There were several strikes during

the year' in the pilchard fishery, but these were usually of short duration. The price in

the San Pedro area rose from $20 per ton to $40 during the year. The plant operators in

the San Francisco area chartered a plane to scout for sardines, and the Navy allowed

fishery observers to make several trips on training flights of I i ghte r-than-a i r-c raf t

.

However, even these measures failed to locate fish in quantity, and the production of

this species for the state as a whole was sma I ler than in any year after 1933.

During the same period, tuna landings reached an all-time high. With the increased

demand for canned tuna and the removal of ceiling prices, more and largertuna clippers

and purse seiners entered the fishery and fished over a larger territory than ever

before. Albacore did not appear in the Pacific Northwest in as large quantities as in

the previous two years. The limited supply of cans provided a constant source of worry

to plant operators, but at no time did it reach a point where production had to be stopped

f o r I ack of cans.

In Puget Sound, salmon fishermen were on strike for a week during June and cannery

shoreworkers were on strike for a short time during July, but this had little effect on

the total production as the supply of fish remained at a low level until late July. Fresh

and frozen fall chums were canned in greater quantities than for a number of years, due

to the excellent demand for canned fish and the lessening of demand for fresh and frozen

fish that accompanied the removal of price controls. The halibut season was the shorteston record, with the largest production since 1915. however, a large part of the increasewas taken by Canadian craft. The catch landed in the Pacific Coast States was II percentabove 1945. With the exception of a short period during July, price ceilings were kepton halibut until August 16, just 3 days before the close of the season. Halibut landingswere al located during the fi rst part of the season by the Fish and Wildlife Service in a

similar manner to the preceding year.

During 1946, the-production of fish and shellfish inthe Pacific Coast States ( Wash i ng-

ton, Oregon, and California) totaled 1,16 1,881,800 pounds, valued at $76,020,862 to thefishermen. This represents a decrease of 19 percent in volume, but an increase of 21

percent in value, compared with 1945. The decline in the catch was primarily due to thedecreased landings of pilchard. Although the total catch was the" smallest since 1934, it

was the most valuable in the history of the fishery. No survey was made of the operatingunits of these states tor 1946. Summary data of the 1945 operating units are includedfor comparative purposes.'

The quantity of packaged fish produced during 1946 in Washington and Oregon totaled15,462,899 pounds, nearly 6 million pounds less than in 1945. Data is not available onthe quantity processed in California, but it is estimated that the production amounted to7.5 million pounds. The decrease was primarily que to the decline in the demand forrockf ish f i I lets, caused by sma I ler Army purchases and greater avai I ab i I i ty of other foodi tems fo r c i v i I i ans.

Data on the operating units and catch of the fisheries of the Pacific Coast States havebeen taken largely from statistics collected by the various State agencies. Supplementarysurveys, compilations , and analyses , have been made by agents of this Service in orderthat the figures may be presented m a manner comparable with those of other sections.Vhile statistics on the fisheries of California are for the calendar year, those forOregon and Washington are for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1947, except that statis-tics of the halibut fishery for Washington are for the calendar year.

PACIFIC COAST FISHERIES

The production of canned fish and fishery byproducts in the Pacific Coast States in

1946 was valued at $147,817,953, 37 percent more than in 1945. The three most valuable

items canned were tuna, salmon, and sardines. The production of canned crab meat in-

creased spectacularly with the beginning of the first post-war season without price con-

trols. Substantial quantities of a new item, canned rockfish, were packed. Canning of

this product was begun in an effort to utilize the catch of rockfishes when the demand

for frozen fillets declined. A total of 151 plants in the three Pacific Coast States

engaged in canning fishery products, and 110 plants produced fishery byproducts.

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturingindustries was made for 1940. In that year, 141 men were employed on 58 vessels operatingin the transporting trade and 19,109 persons were employed in wholesale and manufacturingestablishments. The latter employees received $11,440,359 in salaries and wages during1940. Detailed statistics on these branches of the industry for 1940 can be found in"Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1944" (Statistical Digest No. 16).

The following tables contain a summary of 1946 catch and 1945 operating units anddetailed inforination on the 1946 catch in the Pacific Coast States. Condensed summarydata of the catch by states of the Pacific Coast fisheries, appearing in the followingpages, have beeh previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 48 1. Detaileddata of the 1945 operating units can be found in Fishery Statistics of the United States1945 (Statistical Digest No. IB).

SECTION 7.- LAKE FISHERIES'

During 1946, the commercial catch of fish by United States fishermen in the Great Lakes

and the International Lakes of northern Minnesota amounted to 73,353,900 pounds, valued

at $11,677,941 to the fishermen. This represents a decrease of less than I percent in

volume but a decline of 15 percent in value, compared with 1945. In addition, the Cana-

dian catch in these lakes amounted to 29,125,300 pounds. Lake Erie was the leading pro-

ducer, with United States fishermen taking 29,120,700 pounds and Canadian fishermen,

18,925,100 pounds. Of the individual states, Michigan had the largest production, with

24, 159, 100 pounds.

The leading species in the United States catch was lake herring, 20,170,400 pounds,

followed by yellow pike, 7,850,500 pounds, lake trout, 7,457,400 pounds, and cisco,

6,638,400 pounds. The catch of lake herring was the largest since 1941. The yield of

yellow pike was the largest ever recorded, while that of lake trout was the smallestsince 1913 when continuous records first became available. Production of Cisco has shown

an amazing recovery from a low in 1943 of 25,900 pounds and 98,400 pounds in 1944 to over

6 million pounds in 1946.

The most recent data available on operating units employed in the fisheries of the

Lake States are for 1940. In that year, 5, 142 United States fishermen were employed. If

the Lake fisheries have followed the same trend as in other areas, it can be assumed that

the number of fishermen in 1946 was somewhat greater than in 1940.

The last complete survey of the fishery transporting, wholesaling, and manufacturingindustries was made for 1940. In that year, 33 men were employed on II vessels operatingin the transporting trade and 3,030 persons were employed in wholesale and manufacturingestablishments. The latter employees received $2,842,680 in salaries and wages in 1940.

Detailed statistics on these branches of the industry for 1940 can be found in "FisheryStatistics of the United States, 1944" (Statistical Digest No. 16), and in earlier publi-cations of the same series.

The following tables contain a summary of the United States and Canadian catch in theGreat Lakes and the International Lakes of northern Minnesota as well as detailed data onthe United States catch in these waters by individual States and Lakes and according togear of capture. Condensed summary data on the catch by States of the Lake fisherieshave been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 413. Historical data onthe fisheries of the Great Lakes can be found in the Report of the International Board ofInquiry for the Great Lakes, which can be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents,Washington 25, D. C.

The statistics of the catch were obtained principally from records of the variousState agencies and from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Ottawa, Canada. The data forthe operating units If isnermen, vessels, boats, and gear) of the United States, which arefor 1940, were obtained Largely by agents of this Service m a special survey, althoughState records m several instances were very helpful m this work. In all cases, thestatistics collected are for the calendar year except for Rainy Lake, Lake of the ll/oods,

and Hamakan Lake m ^mne sota, which are for two seasons; for Lake of the Hoods, theseasons are from June 1 to November 1 and December 1 to April i; and for Rainy and NamakenLakes the seasons are from Hay 25 to November 1 and December 1 to April 1. The catchesfor these two seasons, m the order named, have been c ombmed to c onst itute a year. Thequantity of fish taken m these Lakes oetween January 2 and April 1 is e stimated to beless than 3 percent of the total catch.

SECTION 9.- ALASKA FISHERIES

The commercial catch of fish and shellfish in Alaska during 1946 totaled 651,446,014

on record.

In 1946, the salmon industry resumed normal operations after 3 years of operationunder the wartime industry concentration program. A total of I 16 canneries operated, an

increase of 20 plants over the previous year. However, due to below normal runs of salmon,

particularly pink and chum, the pack was the lowest since 1927.

Herring catch quotas were raised from 700,000 barrels in 1945 to 900,000 barrels in

1946. A barrel consists of 250 pounds. The bulk of the catch was used for reduction

purposes, with smaller quantities being used for pickling, dry-salting, and for bait.

Approximately 6 percent more razor clams were taken in Alaska during 1946 than in theprevious year. With the exception of small quantities sold fresh in the shell, or frozenin packages, the entire catch was used for canning.

The quantity of sharks caught increased 141 percent, but the value decreased 16 per-cent. The decrease in value was caused in part by increasing emphasis on the catch ofgr ay fish, whose livers are less valuable than the livers of the soupfin shark.

Detailed data on the number of fishermen, fishing craft, and quantity of gear employedin the fisheries of Alaska during 1946 as well as information on the volume and the catchand the production of manufactured fishery products will be found on the following pages.Condensed summary data on the operating units, catch, and products prepared for markethave been previously published in Current Fishery Statistics No. 40 1. Additional infor-mation on the fisheries of Alaska during 1946 can be found in "Alaska Fishery, and Fur-seal Industries, 1946" (Statistical Digest No. 17).

^° Statistics on tne fisheries of Alaska are collected and compiled by the Alaska Branch

SECTION 11. REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

There are presented in this section of the Digest complete data on the catch of certain

of the maj'or species of fish and shellfish taken commercially in the United States and

Alaska. Although these data are included in the detailed catch tables for the various

States, they have been republished in individual fishery tables in this portion of the

report to provide readers with a single source of catch data for cod, haddock, hal ibut,

mackerel, menhaden, pilchard, rosefish, salmon and tuna. Statistics on the oyster and

shrimp fisheries are being omitted this ypar since data were not collected in the SouthAtlantic and Gulf States for 1946 and a substantial portion of the catch of these itemscomes from that area. Most of the above species are taken by fishermen operating in

several States or districts, and a number are taken by several types of fishing gear.Because of this, the casual reader of the Digest often experiences difficulty in locatingcomplete data on the catch of the species in individual State catch tables. The infor-mation contained in this section includes the volume and value of the catch by individualtypes of gear and by States and districts.

HALIBUT SCHOONER

UNITED STATES AND ALASKA COD FISHERY

The catch of cod in the United States and Alaska during 1946 totaled 103,199,530pounds, valued at $6,728,768, approximately 50 million pounds less than in the precedingyear. Otter trawl landings in Massachusetts decreased 54 million pounds

—

largely becausemost of the large otter trawls fishing out of Boston were tied up for nearly five monthsearly in the year by a dispute over the distribution of the proceeds from the sale of thecatch between the vessel owners and fishermen.

Otter trawls accounted for 81 percent of the total landings, while 14 percent werecaught by I i nes. Smal I er quant it ies were landed by craft fishing with gill nets, float ingtraps, pound nets, purse seines, and pots.

Massachusetts, with a catch of 80 mil I ion pounds of (fod, led in the pro duct ion of thisspecies, followed by Maine (7.4 million pounds) and Washington (5.8 million pounds).Otter trawls were the most important type of gear in all of the more important areas, ex-cept Alaska. In the Territory the catch was taken by hand lines.

RWIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

ATLANTIC COAST HADDOCK FISHERY

Haddock production in the United States during 1946 amounted to 155,034,600 pounds,

valued at $13,042,834 to the fishermen, compared with 154,988,600 pounds, valued at

$10,828,600 in 1945. The total catch would have been considerably greater had there been

no tie-up of the large otter trawls fishing out of Boston during most of the first five

months of the year.

Otter trawls accounted for 95 percent of the total landings. The balance were caught

with trawl and hand lines^ gill nets, purse seines, pound nets and dredges

The haddock fishery is confined to the Atlantic Coast, with practically the entire

catch being taken by craft landing in New York or the New England States. Massachusetts

produced 95 percent of the entire catch, followed by New York and Maine. Small quantities

were also landed in New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey and Virginia.

PACIFIC COAST HALIBUT FISHERY

The total North Pacific halibut catch by both United States and Canadian craft was thelargest since 1915, while the catch by the United States and Alaskan fleet was the largest

since 1930. The quota set by the International Fisheries Commission was 52.5 millionpounds, the same as in 1945. However, over a mi I I ion pounds of hal ibut was taken outsideof quota restrictions by vessels operating in other fisheries, and the fishing intensityin the halibut fishery was so great that the catch of each area was higher than it wasanticipated it would be when the closing dates were set. In 1946, there were 438 vesseJ s

of United States registry regularly engaged in the halibut fishery, compared with 234 in 1936.

The season opened on May I and closed in Area I' (Willapa Bay to Cape Spencer) on JuneII, and in Area III (west of Cape Spencer) on August 19. The 1946 season, which lastedonly 42 days in Area II and III days in Area III, was the shortest in history. In 1936,10 years earlier, the season in Area II extended for 148 days and for 233 days in AreaIII. Landings of halibut in the United States and Alaska ports we re allocated by theoffice of the Coordinator of Fisheries during the first part of the season.

The data listed in the following tables represent dressed weight, which is the weightupon which the quota is based, while those in the various State and sectional tablesrepresent the round weight of the catch. The dressed weight can be converted to roundweight by multiplying by 1.33.

ATLANTIC COAST MACKEREL FISHERY

As no surveys were conducted in New Jersey or New Hampshire for 1946, informationpresented in the following table is composite data covering 1945 in those States and 1946

in all other States. In 1945 only a negligible quantity of mackerel was landed in NewHampshire, while landings in New Jersey amounted to less than 10 percent of the total.

Based on available data, it appears that the 1946 catch of mackerel on the AtlanticCoast was II percent less than in the previous year. Landings by purse seiners in

Massachusetts were over 9 mi I I ion pounds less than in 1945.

PACIFIC COAST MACKEREL FISHERY

in 1946 the total catch of Pacific macl<erel totaled 53,875,300 pounds, valued at

$1,431,462. Compared with the previous year, this represented a nominal increase in

poundage, but a gain of 28 percent in value. The macl<erel catch has been subject to

large variations in recent years, partially due to changes in fishing intensity. In the

years since 1928, the catch has varied from 35 mi I I ion pounds to 146 mi I I ion pounds.

The Pacific Coast mackerel fishery is confined to the State of California, with the

bulk of the catch being taken in the San Pedro district. Practically all of the catch is

taken with brail or scoop nets, and seines. Small quantities are also caught by lines,

gill and trammel nets, and otter trawls.

ATLANTIC COAST MENHADEN FISHERYThe menhaden catch in 1946 amounted to over 920 million pounds, setting a new record

for this species. For the first time since 1932, the yield of menhaden exceeded pilchard

landings. Nearly all of the menhaden were used for reduction into meal and oil. Small

quantities were used for bait or for canning.

In 1946 no general canvass of the fisheries was conducted in New Jersey, Delaware, or

the South Atlantic and Gulf States. However, in conducting the canned fish and byproducts

survey, information was obtained on the total quantity of menhaden used for reduction

.purposes in these States. Since nearly the entire catch is used in the manufacture ofoil and meal, the poundage used for reduction has been listed as the landings in thoseStates which were not canvassed for 1946 data.

The Middle Atlantic States led in the production of menhaden in 1946,

South Atlantic and Gulf States and the Chesapeake States. Only smal I

landed in New England.

PACIFIC COAST PILCHARD FISHERY

The catch of pi Ichards in 1946, which amounted to 531 mi I I ion pounds, was the smal lest

since 1933. Although landings in the San Pedro area were at record levels, they were not

large enough to offset the disastrous season suffered by operators in the San Francisco

and Monterey areas. As usual, the California catch accounted for over 95 percent of the

total landings in the Pacific Coast States.

During the years since 1934, the catch has totaled less than 900 million pounds in

only 1945 and 1946, and less than one billion pounds in only three additional years.

From 1932 to 1945 in-clusive, the pilchard fishery accounted for a larger annual catch

than any other species taken by United States fishermen.

ROSEFISH FISHERY

The 1946 catch ot rosefish (ocean perch), which amounted to 178 million pounds, was

the largest in history. This fishery did not become commercially important until

1935, when landings reached 17 million pounds.

Seventy-seven percent of the 1946 catch was delivered to Massachusetts ports, princi-

pally Gloucester and Boston, with most of the balance being landed at Portland and Rock-

land, Maine. The leading port for this species i s G loucester, Massachusetts.

Practical ly all of the catch is used in the production of f i I lets. In 1946 only 1-1/2

percent of these fillets was marketed fresh, the balance being frozen. Waste from fil-

leting is used in the production of rosefish oil and meal.

222 REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

PACIFIC COAST SALMON FISHERYThe 1946 salmon catch in the Pacific Coast States and Alaska totaled 478 million

pounds, approximately I percent less than in 1945. The largest decreases occurred in the

Central District of Alaska and the Puget Sound District of Washington. The decrease in

the Central District of Alaska was general in all species, except silver or coho salmon.

In the Puget Sound District the largest decline was in pink salmon and was due to the

fact that this species occur in this area in quantity only in odd-numbered years. These

were partially offset by increased landings in Southeastern, and Western Alaska.

The most important types of gear used in taking salmon were purse seines, pound nets

(including floating traps), and gill nets. The catch of each of these types of gearamounted to over 100 million pounds. Smaller quantities were also taken by lines, haul

seines, dip nets and reef nets.

Alaska led with a production of 391.7 million pounds, followed by Washington,

55.2 million pounds; Oregon, 17.7 million pounds; and California, 13.7 million pounc

1/ THE CATCH BY HAUL SEINES IN ALASKA IS INCLUDED WITH THAT OF PURSE SEINES.


PACIFIC COAST TUNA JFISHERYLandings of tuna and tunaliks fishes in the Pacific Coast States during 1946 estab-

lished a new record of over 220 million pounds. This was due pri larily to the additionof new vessels to the fleet, the expansion of fishing areas, and increased intensity offishing. The new and larger vessels entering the fishery permitted longer trips and in-creased the size of the fares that could be landed.

The albacore catch, while greater than in any year prior to 1943, was less than halfthe record established in 1944. Landingsofbluefin tuna were the second la rgeston record,while those of skipjack were the third largest. The record tuna catch was due primarilyto the tremendous increase in the production of yel I owf i n tuna, practical ly al I of whichwere taken off the coasts of Central and South America

The San Diego and San Pedro districtsof Cal ifornia accounted for most of the I andings,with relatively small amounts being landed in the other districts of California and inOregon and Washington.

^° SECTION 12.- STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

This report is another in a series of annual statistical reports containing data onthe quantity and value of the commercial catch of fishery products and the numbers ofpersons and operating units engaged in the commercial fisheries of the United States andAlaska. The report has been prepared and pub I i shed by the Branch of Commercial Fisheries,Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior, and Is a continuation of a seriesinaugurated by its predecessor organizations in the Departments of the Interior, Commerce,Commerce and Labor, and the United States Fish Commission.

In order that those who usethe statistical data contained in this and previous reportsmay be informed as to the source of the figures and methods for their collection, it has

been deemed advisable to outline, in moderate detail, thesurvey procedure followed. Thisprocedure has been developed over a period of years, and changes in method have been madeat times when such changes have appeared to work toward general improvement. While thesurveys in the several sections are not made in the same manner, owing to varying facili-ties and records in different States, an attempt has been made to make the data collectedby various methods in the producing areas comparable with respect to the same year aswell as over a period of years. Throughout the entire plan it has been the intention to

coordinate State and Federal fishery statistical work so that there will be as littleduplication of effort as possible.

SECTIONAL SURVEYSStatistical surveys of the fisheries and fishery industries of the various sections of

the United States occupy by far the greatest part of the time of the statistical personnelof the Branch. In the course of these surveys, the field representatives visit the in-dividual fishing localities of the various States to collect statistics on the volume andvalue of the catch of fish and shellfish, employment inthe fisheries, quantity of fishinggear, number and classification of fishing and transporting craft, and the volume andvalue of manufactured fishery products and byproducts. The various phases of these surveysare discussed in detail in the sections following.

History, — The first comprehensive statistical survey of the fisheries and fishery in-

dustries of the United States was made for the year 1880 by George Brown Goode, AssistantDirector of the United States National Museum, and associates, with the cooperation ofthe Commissioner of Fisheries and the Superintendent of the Tentfi Census. Data for spe-cific fisheries, or restricted sections for years prior to 1880, also were collected in

the early survey and recorded in Mr. Goode's reports. The survey for 1880, however, didnot include the Mississippi River and its tributaries. Periodic general surveys of a

I imited number of States or I imited areas of the United States were made for various ofthe intervening years between 1880 and 1908 and from 1909 to 1928. In 1908 a survey ofthe entire United States, except the Mississippi River and its Tributaries, was made.The next general survey of the entire United States was not made until 1931, althoughcomplete data for all sections, excluding the Mississippi River and its Tributaries, werecollected for 1929 and 1930. Complete data on the catch and operating units for thesesame sections were also collected for 1932. In the latter survey, however, lack of suf-ficient funds prohibited collection of data on wholesale and manufacturing operationsexcept those data collected as a part of the canned fishery products and byproducts survey.

Complete canvasses of the catch were made in the New England States for 1933, 1935, foreach year for 1937 to 1940, inclusive, and for 1942 to 1946, inclusive, except that no

survey was made in New Hampshire for 1946. With the exception of data for Massachusettsand Rhode Island for 1946, complete operating units statistics, in this section wereobtained for the same years. Information was collected on the catch and operat i ng. un i tsin the Middle Atlantic States for the following years: 1933; 1935; 1937 to 1940, in-

clusive; 1942 to 1945, inclusive; and in the State of New York for 1946. Statistics on

the catch and operating units of the South Atlantic and Gulf States, except for Floridaoperating units for 1945, were collected for 1934, the years from 1936 to 1940, inclusive,and 1945. Data on the catch of the Pacific Coast States were obtained for the years 1933to 1946, inclusive. Data on the operating units of the Pacific Coast States were obtainedfor the years 1933 to 1945, inclusive. Statistics on the catch of the Lake States areavailable for the years 1933 to 1946, inclusive. Data on the operating units of thesestates were collected for 1934,- and for the years 1936 to 1940, inclusive. Data on thewholesale and manufacturing industries were collected in all of the surveys from theyears 1933 to 1940 inclusive. In the years since 1940, the lack of personnel and fundsprecluded collection of data on wholesale and manufacturing firms except those data col-lected as a part of the canned fishery products and byproducts surveys.

The following chart i nd i cates the years for which surveys have been made in the varioussections. Figures for more recent years are available from the Service in bulletin form,but data for the earlier years are available only in the Fish Commission and Bureau ofFisheries printed reports. These reports are available for reference in the Departmentof the Interior library and in many public libraries.

SECTIONAL SURVEYS

Since the surveys of the fisheries have varied in completeness three legends have been

used for the years shown in the chart to indicate whether complete, partial, or no sur-

veys were conducted in the individual regions. The designation "Complete survey" has

been used to indicate that basic operating unit and catch data were obtaiaed and thatcomplete information was collected on employment in wholesale and manufacturing establish-

ments and on the production of manufactured fishery products. The legend "Partial survey"usually indicates that operating unit and catch statistics were collected, but that no

information was obtained on employment in wholesale and manufacturing establishments andthat only partial data were obtained on the production of manufactured fishery products.In some instances the designation "Partial survey" is used for regions in which onlycatch statistics were collected. The legend "No survey" indicates that a general canvasswas not conducted to obtain operating unit, catch, employment In wholesale and manri-fact-uring, plants, and complete manufactured' products data. Although the chart indicatesthat in certain regions no surveys were conducted, some information may be available onthe landings at certain important ports. Likewise information on the catch of certainspecies such as menhaden may be available as a result of information collected in con-nection with the annual canned fish and byproducts survey. Data on the annual productionof canned fishery products and byproducts have been collected for all regions since 1921,while information was obtained on the production of packaged fish for 1926 and annuallysince 1928.

Information on surveys of special fisheries and limited areas can be found in Statis-

tical Digest No. 16 [Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1944) and in earlier publi-

cations of the same series.

Field Personnel. —fhe statistics contained In this volume have been collected by a

group of tral ned marketing specialists which comprises a part of the permanent staff of the

Branch of Commercial Fisheries of this Service.

Period Covered.—These specialists are assigned permanent field stations, generally In

the principal port within their field, and travel from that station in conducting theirvarious surveys. They collect statistics of fishery operations f-or the year preceedingthat In which they are working; and since their field work occupies the greater part of

the year. It Is usually at least a year from the end of the calendar year for which theyare collecting data until the figures are published. The data usually are collected and

publlshedona calendar year b as is, although for some States they are on a fiscal year basis.Prior to 1930, stat I st i cs on the catch of oysters In the Atlantic and Gulf States were col-lected for the oyster season; that is, from September to April, inclusive. Beginning with1950 and continuing to the present time, they have been collected on the basis of the ca-

1 endar year.

Scope, —The scope of the coastal statistical surveys include canvasses of the commercialf isherl es of the oceans and bays and of the coastal rivers as far Inland as commercial fish-ing I s important. This usually co Inc Ides with the range of commerc iai fishing for anadramousspecies. Statistics of the fisheries of the Mississippi River cover canvasses of theflsherles.ofthe MisslsSipplRlverproperaswell asallofits tributaries where In commerc iaI

fishing for'eltherfish, crustaceans, ormollusks Is prosecuted. Statistics of the fisheriesof the Great Lakes cover canvasses of the fisheries prosecuted In the lakes proper, adjacentbays, the International Lakes of northern Minnesota, and rivers which sustain a commercialfishery having outlets Into these waters. Statistics on the fisheries of Florida includethe commercial fisheries prosecuted in Lake Okeechobee. Surveys for statistics of thewholesale and manufacturing fishery industries cover such plants located in the coastal,river, and lake areas adjacent to the waters mentioned above.

Methods of Collection,— Several methods for the collection of fishery statistics areemployed, each of which has been carefully studied to obtain the best results with the

available personnel and funds. In most Instances the field personnel obtain lists of the

names of fishing vessels, names and numbers of motorboats, and names of owners of these

craft from local custom officials. Also it usually is possible to obtain the names of

licensed commercial f I shermen and some stat i st i cs on the catch from State fishery agencies;

from other State, county or city sources; or from private organizations.

With such preliminary records asare available for their guidance the field specialists

visit each fishing community i n thei r f i el d un I ess these preliminary records are so comp 1 ete

that personal visits may beeliminated. If comp lete catch data are not available from cen-

tral sources, wholesale dealers and manufactu rers of f i she ry products are visited and data

are obtained from them on their purchases of fishery products. While it is impossible for

the few Service representatives available for this work to interview each fishermen in a


given local Ity, the more important ones are visited, and a sufficient number of those of

lesser importance are interviewed to obtain reliable information on their production, the

number of fishing craft employed, the quantity of gear operated, and the number of persons

employed as fishermen.

IntheGreat Lakes and Paci fi c Coast States such except ional cooperat i on has been obtained

in recent years from the State fishery agencies in the collection of statistics that only

fragmentary surveys needbemade by the Servi ces spec i al i sts to obtai n other necessary data.

Also the State fishery agencies in Maine, New York, and Maryland more recently have devel-

oped very complete statistical systems which greatly facilitate the Servjces' surveys

i n these States.

As regards the fi sheri es of the Great Lakes and I nternat i onal lakes of Northern Minnesota,

the Service obtains most of the catch statistics and usually the value of the catch direct

from the recordsofthe State fishery agencies. To obtain data on the number of fi shermen,

boats, vessels, and gear, the Service conducts such personal surveys^mong the fishermen

as may be necessary to supplement the State records.

Service statistical personnel are stationed at Seattle, Wash., and San Pedro, Calif.,

who survey the fi sheri es of the Pacific Coast States. As a ru I e they obtai n figures on the

volume of the catch from the records of the State fishery departments. The value of the

catch is derived from dealers' records. In Washington and Oregon, the offshore fisheries

are surveyed separately by the Service to obtain data on the number of operating units.

Statistics of the wholesale fishery industry for this section are obtained largely by per-

sonal interviews.

In the admi n i st rat ion of the Alaska fisheries the Service obtains sworn statements con-

cerning the activities of those prosecuting the fisheries in this area. These statements

are compiled by the Alaska Branch of this Service and the summary data, by districts,

are reproduced in this report.

Statistics on the volume of the catch of fish of the Great Lakes States usually are

shown in weights as landed, which may be in the round o r d ressed condition. Statistics on

the volume of the catch of fish taken in the remainder of the United States are shown in

round weight.

The figures in the tables for shellfish represent the weight of the meats in the cases

of univalve and bivalve mollusks and gastrapods, and the round weight of crustaceans and

such mollusks as squid anrd octopus.

Shore andvessel fisheries. — In general, stat i st i cs of the shore fisheries, as collected

by the Servi ces' representatives, i ncl ude data on the number of casual and regular fishermen;

number of motor and other fishing boats and accessory boats; type and quant i ty of gear used;

and the volume, value, and method of capture of each species caught by boats (for our pur-

pose craft of less than 5 net tons capacity are cal I ed "boats") for each locality or group

of local it i es. Th i s method is not fo I I owed in some sect ions where the avai I ab i I i ty of datacol I ected by the States fi shery agenci es obvi ates the necessity of detai I ed locality surveys.

Stat 1st i cs of the vessel fisheries i ncl uue dataon the number of the crew, rig of vessels,net tonnage, kind and quantity of gear used, accessory boats carried, and volume, value,

and method of capture of each species. For our purpose craft of 5 net tons capacity ormore are called "vessels". Asinthe shore fisheries, theavailabilityoffigures collectedby State fishery agencies may eliminate the necessity of our agents collecting these datafor individual vessels.

Statistics of the quant i ty of gear operated indicate the maximum number of units fished

at any one time during the year. Gear carried i n reserve fo r rep I acement i s not enumerated.

All persons engaged in commercial fishing operations are i ncl uded as fishermen. For our

purpose these have been divided into "regular" and "casual" fishermen. Regular fishermen

are defined as those who receive more than one-half of their annual income from fishing;

whereas casual f i shermen are those whose principal business is someth ingotherthan fishing,

and who receive less than one-half of their annual compensation from fishing.

The catchof fish and shellfish is credited tc^ the port where it is landed andthe craft

making the catch is credited to the locality where it landed the greatest portion of its


catch during the year. Prior to the survey for 1942 i t was the practice of the Service to

credit the entire catch of a vessel to the principal port of landing, regardless of the

actual point of landing. This policy was discontinued, however, since it quite often

resulted in inconsistencies by presenting catches of certain fish in areas to which they

are not common inasmuch as fishing vessels frequently operate in areas far removed from

thei r pri nci pal fishing port. An outstanding examp I e of thi s i s the case of the Southern

trawl fishery. In this fi she ry of f the New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and No rth Caro I i na

coasts, many fishing vessels from (Massachusetts operate for 6 to 10 weeks during the

winter season. Prior to the. survey for 1942 the catch of these fish, principally common

to these waters, was credited to Massachusetts. Under the present system the catch is

credited to the southern port at which it was landed and the vessel, crew, and gear are

credited to the port at which the major portion of their catch was landed.

Pu-blication of Data. — Stat i st ics of emp loyment inthe fisheries, craft and gear engaged,quantity and value of catch, and certain data on industries related to the fisheries areSummarized according to the geographic division and published in bulletin form as soon aspossible after the completion of each survey. Later, the figures, in more detail, areincluded in the annual reports of the service entitled "Fishery Statistics of the UnitedStates" and in"Alaska Fishery and Fur Seal Industries."

Since 1928, data on the operating units (fishermen, fishing craft, and gear ) by count i esfor the Atlantic Coast andGulf States have usually been included inthe annual statisticalreports "Fishery Statistics of the United States" or its predecessor publication "FisheryIndustries of the United States." However, funds were not available for the publicationof county data for 1952, or the years from 1959 to 1944, inclusive. County data werecollected for the areas in which surveys were conducted during those years, and the dataare on file in the Washing-ton, D. C. office of the Branch.

LOCAL AND SPECIAL SURVEYSLandings at Certain New England Ports. — Detailed statistics are collected on the land-

ings of aquatic products by individual fishing craft at Boston, Gloucester, New Bedford,

and Provincetown and other Cape Cod ports, Massachusetts, and Portland, Maine. Servicerepresentatives are permanently stationed at each of these ports. They obtain dailyfigures on the quantity of fish landed by each fishing craft, the value of such fishlanded, the date of departure and arrival of the craft, the grounds f rpm which the 'fish

were taken and the gear used in their capture. The Branch of Fishery Biology and theFishery Market News Service cooperate in the col lection of these data.

Statistics of the landings at the above ports are released monthly and annually in

bulletin form and detailed data are published in annual statistical reportsofthe Branch.Products of American fisheries received duty free at Boston and G loucester, Massachusetts,and Portland, Maine, from the treaty coasts of Newfoundland, Magdalen Islands, and Lab-rador, have not been included in the landings at these ports since 1958. Data on thelandings at Boston and Gloucester, Massachusetts, have been collected annually since 1893.Some data are also available for these ports for earlier years. Information on landingsat Portland, Maine, have been collected annually since 1915, and at New Bedford, Massa-chusetts since 1958.

Statistics on the Landings of Fish at Seattle, Washington. — Data on the landings bythe United States halibut fleet at this port are assemb I ed by the Service from informationcollected by the International Fisheries Commission. Generally, the halibut fleet is

considered asconsisting of thosevessels belonging to members of the Fishing Vessel Owner'sAssociation, Inc., which sell their fares through the Seattle Fish Exchange. This fleetoriginally fished almost exclusively for halibut. With the shortening of the halibutseason, particularly in Area II, a port ion of the fleet has fished for other species duringthe closed season for halibut, and has continued selling their fish through the Exchange.Data on other fishery products received by Seattle Wholesale Dealers, including receiptsfrom Alaska and Canada, which appear in this report, are collected by the Serv ice 's Seattlerepresentatives. Prior to 1944, receipts from Alaska and British Columbia were not in-cluded in the Seattle receipts published in the Statistical Digests. However, sinceOctober, 1958, these data were contained in the monthly and annual reports published bythe Seattle Fishery Market News Office.


Shad and Aleuiife Fisheries. —Owing to the importance of the Hudson and Potomac Riversin the production of shad, surveys for statistics of the catch, value of the catch, andoperating units are made annually. On the Potomac River similar statistics are also ob-tained for the alewife fishery. Much of the data requ i red for these surveys are availablefrom the State fishery agencies.

Statistics of the annual shad and alewife fisheries are not published separately in

bulletin forms. However, a summary of the data is published in the annual StatisticalDi gest

.

Statistics of the shad fishery of the Hudson River are available for 1896, 1897, 1898,

190 1 , 1904, 19 10, and from 1915 to 1945, Inclusive, while data for the shad fishery of

the Potomac River are available for 1896, 1901, 1904, 1909, 1915, from 1919 to 1942, in-

clusive, 1944, and 1945. Statistics of the alewife fishery of the Potomac River are

available for 1896, 1909, 1915, 1919 to 1942, Inclusive, 1944 to 1946, inclusive.

Pacific Halibut Fishery.— Stat i st i cs of the Pacific halibut fishery are obtained by the

Service's personnel in Seattle, aided by Service representatives in Alaska, and theInternational Fisheries Commission. The fleet classification is that of the International

Fisheries Commission, under which vessels that are listed by the Commission as having

their home port in Alaska are included in the "Alaska fleet", and all other vessels of

United States registry landing at Seattle or ports in British Columbia or Alaska are In-

cluded in the "Washington fleet". The catch is credited to the point where landed in the

section "Review of Certain Major Fisheries". In the other sections of this report, al I

halibut is credited to the port where landed, except that all halibut landed by UnitedStates and Alaskan craft in British Columbia is credited to Alaska. Monthly and annual

statistical bulletins are available on this fishery, being published along with thestatistics of the landings of fishery products at Seattle, Washington and detailed sta-tistics are published in the annual statistical reports of the Branch. Statistics of thelandings of halibut at Pacific Coast ports have been collected since 1925.

Canned Fishery Products and Byproducts.— Beginning in 1921, the Service has made annual

surveys for statistics of the canned fishery products and byproducts industries of every

section. These are begun the first week in January of each year for statistics of theproduction in the preceding year. The Service obtains by mail, so far as possible, the

production of canned fishery products or byproducts from each plant in the United States

engaged in this business. Where It is impossible to obtain reports by mail, the report

is secured by personal visit by the Service's agents. They obtain statistics cff the pro-

duction and value of the production for each commodity by can sizes, case sizes, and tradeclassifications. The value shown forcanned products const itutes the gross amount received

by the packer at the production point, no deductions being made for commissions or ex-

penses. Statistics of the canned fishery products and byproducts produced in Alaska are

received on the same statements obtained by the Alaska Branch that include statistics of

general fishery operations.

Annual statistical bulletins are issued on this trade, and detailed statistics of the

output are published in the annual Statistical Digest. In addition to the data obtainedon the output of these products annually since 1921, data also usual ly were obtained priorto 1921 for the years the various sections were surveyed.

1928, except that no data was collected fortheyears 1941 to 1946, inclusive, in Cali-forn i a.

Cold-Storage Holdings of Fish.— Information on tne monthly freezings and holdings of

fishery products is obtained from cold storage warehouses bymail and by Service employeesin various cities of the country. Data are- also obtained onthe holdings of certain cured

fish. Bulletins showing these statistics are issued monthly and annually.

Detailed cold-storage statistics also are published in the annual Statistical Digestsissued by. the Branch. Information regarding cold-storage holdings of fishery products

^^^STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

have been, published since 1917 and data on quantities of fish frozen, for the years from

1920 to 1925, inclusive and annually since 1928.

Sponge Market, Tarpon Springs.— The major proport ion of the output of sgonges in Floridais sold on the Sponge Exchange at Tarpor. Springs. The Service has obtained, from a re-presentative of the Exchange, annual statistics of the quantity and value of the spongessold by variety. Data or the quantity of sponges marketed by the Exchange is publishedIn the Branch's annual Statistical Digest. Information regarding the transactions on thesponge exchange also are available in bulletin form for 1913, 1914, and for the yearssince 1917.

Foreign Fishery Trade. — Statistics of the foreign fishery trade are obtained fromcompilations made by the Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce. Statistics of all

known fishery products imported or exported have been assembled and published annuallysince 1926 in the Branch's Statistical Digest. For earlier years, they are available in

the reports of the Bureau of the Census, Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, theBureau of Statistics, the Department of Commerce and Labor, or the Treasury Department.

PRACTICES AND TERMS

Certain practices and terms of i mportance used in the cc.^pilation of fishery statistics

are explained below.

Days Absent.— \n computing "days absent ' for'vesse I s landing fares at the various portsthe day of arrival, but not the day of departure is included; thus a vessel leaving porton the 8th of the month and returning on the 15th of the month will be credited with 7days absence. Prior to 1944, "days absent" included both the day of departure and theday of arrival. Statements appearing in the 1942 and 1943 editions of "Fishery Statisticsof the united States" indicating that data on "days absent" for these years did not includethe day of departure, were in error. The change in the method of computing "days absent"did not occur until 1944.

Opjratmg Units. —Ope rat ing unitsasreferredtoin this document include persons engaged

in the fisheries, and craft and gear employed in the fisheries.

Vessel. — The term "vessel" refers to a craft having a capacity of 5 net tons or more.

Boat. — The term "boat" refers to a craft having a capacity of less than 5 net tons.

Incidental Catch. — The term "incidental catch" refers to the catch of certain species

by a type of gear which ordinarily does not capture such species.

Percentages. — Percentages are usually shown as whole numbers. Fractions of percents

are dropped if less than fi ve-tenths, andthe percentage israised to the next higher integer

if the fraction is greater than five-tenths. If the fraction is exactly five-tenths, the

integer is raised or lowered to make it an even number.

Fish. — The term "fish" as used in this report includes all species belonging to the

c I ass Pi sees.

Shellfish, etc.— A shellfish is an aquatic 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 "Fish" or "Whale Products" have been

included under "Shellfish, etc." Accordingly, there is included under this classification

turtles, frogs, sponges, sea weed, worms, etc.

Vhale Products. — Since dataare not avai I ab I e on the poundage of whal es taken, statisticsappearing in catch tables on the yield of these animals represent the weight of whale

products produced such as meal, sperm oil, whale oil, etc. The values shown represent

the amount received by the manufacturer for the products.

Converting.—Many of the figures shown inthe statistical tab I es pub I i shed herewith havebeen converted to thousands of pounds or dollars. In mak i ng these convers ions the largestnumber from which a group of items iscomputed israised or lowered to the nearest thousandsplace. The individual items are adjusted to conform to the total thus obtained.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE 237

CONVERSION FACTORSIt is the policyofthe Servi ce to show detailed catch figures of all products in pounds

for the sake of un i fo rm i ty and for pu rposes of compari son. This presents little difficulty

in the case offish since In very rare instances are fish reported in units of measure other

than pounds. For shellfish, however, the units of measure may be bushels, sacks, barrels,

thousands of shellfish, gal I ons of meats, etc. These many units make standardization dif-ficult, and when combined with the wide variation in the requiremejts or definitions ofsome of these units in the various States the problem becomes even more complex.

All bivalve mollusks are reported In pounds of meats in the detailed catch tablespresented ,n this report. In addition, there are included supplementary tables for mostof the sections, which give dataonthe production in bushels. These supplementary tablesalso give the production of certain other shellfish, such as crabs, in number.

Oysiers. -Probably the greatest problem in the presentation of fishery statistics inuniform units of measure is in the case of oysters. Usually the production of oysters onthe Atlantic and Gulf coasts is reported to Service personnel in bushels; and prior to thedata obtained for the year 1930 conversion from bushel s to pounds of meats was effected onthe basis of a uniform yield of 7 pounds of meats to the bushel. However, investigationshave shown considerable variation from this figure. There follows a table which gives themeasures used for oysters in the various States and the average yields per bushel. Thestatistical tables in this report are based on these average yields.

Mr. Leonard Schultz

U. S. National MuseumWashington, D. C,

Dear Leonard:

There is enclosed a spiral bound copy of Fishery Statistics of

the United States, 1.9h6 — our most recent digest — which contains detailedinformation on the fisheries of the United States.-, Alaska^ and Hawaii o Thereport contains 19h6 data for all of the Coastal and Great Lakes States,except New Hampshirej, New Jersey, Delaware, and the South Atlantic and GulfStates, Data were not collected for those States. More current summaryinformation is contained in the Service's monthly and annual fisherystatistical bulletins irtiich are issued as rapidly as the figures becomeavailable

„

For the first time, information on the fisheries of Hawaii has

been included in the digest = It is planned that the Hawaiian section will

be a permanent part of future digests e A new section entitled Statistical

Publications , which lists all of the reports issued in the Current Fishery

Statistics series through 191^6, has also been included. This listing will

be brought up-to-date in future editions.

We hope to have Fishery Statistics of the United States for 19ii7

available for release next fall. It will cover the same general field as

the 19l|6 issue, and, in addition, it will contain data on the fisheries of

New Hampshire, New Jersey, and Delaware.

We wish these digests to be of maximimi value, and we want the

material to be presented in the most accessible mannero Therefore, when

you have an opportunity, I woiild appreciate your reviewing the enclosed

report and sending me any suggestions you may have for its improvemento

Sincerely yours.
