HALIBUT B0AT ST. LOUIS
 TO CARRY LATEST GEAR

The halibut boat St. Louis will go fishing this season equipped with the latest in time e-saying gear, ac- cording to owner Ed Krause of Ju- neau.
 The equipment will include the latest Rowe Long Liner winch With a swinging head which permits the drums to be lined up for hauling the gear in over the side of the boat and then swung so they are llneo up with the stern when the gear IS laid out.
 Krause will also install stainless steel groundlines and buoy lines with snap-on gangions-the short length hook-tipped line on wh'cn the fish is caught.
 The snap-on gear is a refinement of gear introduced here four years ago by Chris Hanson, skipper o1 the Cormorant.
 Krause expects the near gear to save time and labor. Among the advantages he includes the saving of bait. since the snap-on gear means gangions are not rolled with the grandline, and unused bait IS not destroyed.
