STAHL TO HEAR
BAY INJUNCTION
in LOCAL court

Port Clinton commercial fisher
men were in the majority Tuesday
evening when opponents of the
proposed bills to ban commercial
fishing in Sandusky Bay were
given a hearing in the House
Conservation Committee meeting,
Columbus.
Meanwhile Attorney General C..
William ONeill has asked Ottawa
County Common Pleas Judge
Tom Stahl to set a trial date in a
test case to determine if the state
can forbid the use of seines in the
bay.
While no definite date for the
trial has been set, Judge Stahl in
dicated it may be held early this
month. The case is on an injunc-
ton issued by the court almost a
year ago which prevents the state
from enforcing laws pertaining to
commercial fishing in the bay.
Is a seine net, or vice versa?
ONeill said the question boils
down to a point of language as
the legislature two years ago re-
enacted the law pertaining to COM
mercial fishing in Sandusky Bay
and used the word nets"
Since then, the Department of
Natural Resources has taken the
position that nets include seines.
Commercial fishermen contend
that if the legislature had intend
ed to include seines it would have
so stated rather than allowing
seines to come under the heading
of nets.
Governor Aids
In a United Press story from
Columbus, Governor Frank Laus-
che is said to be favorable to laws
that will help the hook and line
fishermen in their effort to i'm
prove fishing in the bay.
The governor is quoted as say
ing II am becoming concerned
about the repeated charges that
commercial fishermen in the San
dusky Bay area are multiplying the
rights of hook and line fisher
men," He added the state is inter
ested in preserving the fishing in
dustry but that it had an obliga-
tion to protect the hook and line
fishermen.
