the run was over and no dried the nets

man. What nsh came after this time
We caught In traps In the rack.
Another thing you viii notice In the
table ls the variation In tho number OF
eggs taken from the same number OF
salmon on different days, This is the
result OF having some salmon that were
not fully ready TO spawn, and only part
OF tho eggs could be taken, ana In some
cases they had been injured, and though
apparently perfectly ripe the eggs could
not be taken, Had what few eggs we
got from these two kinds OF salmon not
been counted, the average number OF
eggs per fish would have been about
$500. and from one worry large fish over
1900 eggs were taken. The fish were
all large. Out OF the lS4 fish we took
eggs from, / am quite sure that not less
than ten OF them would weigh less than
20 pounds, which IL large for female fish.
While the table shows that only little
more than 100000 OF eggs were taken,
| am confident that with the same run
OF fish and with plenty OF traps at hand,
and the knowledge gained as to the run
and actions OF the iish. that there can
be nearly 100000 OF eggs taken another
season.
