know the main purpose of a trap is to catch fish," Davis said. If a trap is so constructed so the fish would lay along lead, it wouldn't be very good trap
 The first real controversy of the Thursday morning session of the hearing arose over the proposed regulation to prohibit set net fish, ing throughout Southeast Alaska.
 Heated Objection
 w. E. Nigh, set-netter< from the Haines area objected to this proposal heatedly. He said he had heen a set-netter on the Chilkat since 1943 He said there were only a few operators of this type and claimed that set nets were not a serious problem. He said of the few set-netters there were, most of them were old men who could not earn a living any other way.
 Tt looks to me as if this is just a political set-up, picking on the little dog, when what we really need is to get the traps out of the way. The percentage of fish caught in set nets is very small"
 Rhode agreed with him that the percentage was small and pointed out that the measure was to prevent new type of gear causing fu- ture problem.
 Nigh brought a burst of laughter as he concluded with a smile, Tt may be true that the fish congre- which he said corroborated that that's where man wants to fish"
 E. B. Lomen, of Haines, defend- ed the set-netters and offered a petition signed by over 100 Haines fishermen and business people pro- testing any interference with set nets in that area. He produced fig ures showing that six men working for him last year averaged only 1862 fish for the seasons fishing
 Rhode suggested that the Haines group and other set-netters meet with the Fish and Wildlife Service to see if an agreement could be reached
 Many other fishermen jumped up to speak on various subjects. There was a great deal of discussion con- corning a possible early season next summer. Industry representatives were the target of several barbed comments from the floor.
 The h.aring recessed about 12:30 and began again at 1:30 this after noon. Friday is also set aside for the hearing if needed.
