SHAD PRICES
LIKELY TOTAL
Increased Catches and End
of Lenten Season the
Cause
PROFIT is ONLY
FAIR THIS YEAR

PENNsVILLE. N. j.. April IL
Planked shad dinners are again hav-
ing the call at river and bay shore
hotels now that Delaware river shad
are running more plentifully. The
catches are expected to increase
during the coming week and now
that the big Lenten deamnd for fish
IS over the price to the epicures who
will have nothing but the Delaware
river shad is expected to ease Off.
As high as fifty ahad were caught
by high boats during the last days
of the week. The average daily
catches per boat have been running
from fifteen to twenty shad. As the
fish are bringing the crews more
than a dollar apiece at prevailing
prices. they are making fair profits.
There is hustle of activity now
at Bayside and Hope Creek, altho
only a few boats are fishing from
Pennsviile, PENIS Grove and
Bridgeport so far this spring, due
TO the fact that the fish are believed
to be affected more by pollution the
farther they get up the river. The
best catches now are being made in
the lower bay.
The shad had a chance to nose
their way on up stream without
running into a labyrinth of nets to-
day. as state laws prohibit drifting
OF nets for shad on Sunday. The OBJ
ject Of this law Is TO permit at least
some Of the shad to reach their nat
ural spawning grounds in the upper
reaches Of the Delaware river.
So far most of the shad in the city
markets have come from the Chesa-
peake bay as buyers near home
have snatched up the small catches
OF Delaware river shad nearly as
fast as they have been brought
ashore. The lay boats will begin a
regular schedule OF daily runs to the
Philadelphia markets this week.
shippers also have orders for large
roe shad. at fancy prices, for the
New York and Boston markets.
