The Salt Water Anglers of
America have, since their organi-
zation in 1898, advocated scien.
tific research program, designed
to determine those facts necessary
for the protection of saltwater
fishes.
They have been lauded, both
by commercial and sporting organ
izations, for their progressiveness,
which has resulted in detailed
proposal being made to the U. S.
Bureau of Fisheries. The bureau,
after a thorough review, has indi-
Gated that it is feasible, and for
an initial expenditure of $500,000
the first year, with but an annual
one of $4,000 following, start
can be made to find out why, in.
stead of an annual drop in the
productivity of the heavily fished
Atlantic Coast area, there can't
be more and better fishing"
The club says your sport de-
pends on concerted action. Al.
though it is seriously threatened
by our present lack Of adequate
knowledge, we are assured by
competent scientists that we can
still provide the necessary protec'
ton through prompt action"
Take, for instance, the Shad
which under the right conditions
is a sport fish beyond reproach
had not so many years ago a gross
commercial catch Of more than
so million pounds. Now it is little
more than a fifth Of that figure
The rockfish catch, too, has
dropped considerably, although
in the case of this fish there is
not so much need for worry
Being andronomous-spawning ir

tion a simple matter, given the
proper care and protection. New
Jersey started on it last year, but
left open the most important
waters, Delaware River and Bay
this because it requires the coop

The curtailment of the use Of Ger
tain kinds Of nets in the Chesa

curtailment to bring it back tt
