Fishery Statistics of the United States and Alaska are compiled and published annually

to make available information on both the economic and biological aspects of the domestic

commercial fisheries.

Data on the economic aspects arenecessary to persons engaged in the commercial fishery

and to governmental agencies concerned with i ts regu I at ion and protect ion. Those here given

cover the total catch and value by species, the yield and value of manufactured products

and byproducts, the emp I oyment of men, craft, and gear in the capture of fishery products,

employment in shore establishments, and related information.

From the biological standpoint these data are important to sound fishery management in

providing detailed i nformat ion on f I uctuat ions i n the commerc i al catch by spec i es, locality,

and year, and on the types of gear and boats operated. They assist conservation agencies

so to regulate the commercial fisheries as to produce maximum yields without depletion.

Previous statistical reports on the fishery industries issued under the Department of

the Interior were as follows: Administrative Report No. 41, for 1938 (Appendix I I I to

Report of Commissioner of Fisheries, 1940); Statistical Digest No. 4, for 1940; Statistical

Digest No. 7, for 1941; and Statistical Digest No. II, 1942. Reports for preceding years

were issued in the Administrative Report series of the former Bureau of Fisheries.

INTRODUCTION

Statistical surveys for 1943 data were conducted in all sect i ons except the Chesapeake,South Atlantic, Gulf, and Mississippi River States. Statistics on the various fisherieswere collected by the following field agents: R. L. Greer, V. E. Hef f e I f i nge r, D. A.

McKown, C. M. Reardon, C. D. Stewart, C. B. Tendick, and R. H. Wilson. The surveys inthe New England States were supervised by B. E. Lindgren and those in the Middle AtlanticStates by F. J. Anderson. Data for the Great l^akes were assembled by the staff of Dr.John Van Oosten of the Division of Fishery Biology. Thoseon the fisheries of Alaska we'recollected by the Alaska Division of the Service.

The statistical surveys conducted during 1944, for 1943 data, were under the generaldirection of E. A. Power, Chief, Fishery Statistical Section, assisted by A. M. Sandberg,Fishery Marketing Specialist. The survey material was assembled, tabulated, and preparedfor publication by the staff of the Fishery Statistical Section under the direction ofD. Y. Aska, Statistician, assisted by R. L. Busby, Melissa Tinkey, and Virginia Coyne.Katherine L. Howe, artist of the Service, prepared many of the illustrations contained in

th i s repo rt

.

In ass em bl ing the data on the fisheries, use was made of all reco rds collected by thevarious State f i shery agenc i es. In the Great Lakes and Pac i f i c Ccast Stat es, these recordswere such that it was only necessary for the Servi ce personnel to conduct partial surveys.Statistics on the freezings and cold-storage holdings of fishery products were furnishedby the War Foods Administration, and those on the imports and exports of fishery productsby the Bureau of the Census.

Grateful acknowledgement isextended totheState and Federal agenc i es and to the variousindividuals who cooperated in furnishing portions of the data contained in this volume.

SECTION 1.- GENERAL REVIEW

Based upon available statistics for 194-3, there was a small increase in the catch offishery products in the United States and Alaska as compared with that of the precedingyear, but a large increase in the value of this catch to the fishermen. Comparisons ofsect ions su rveyed in 1943 wi th these same sections for 1942 indicate an increase of 3 percentin volume, and an increase of 21 percent in value received by the fishermen. The catchincreased in all sect i ons as compared with the 1942 catch, except in the New England States.The yield in the Pacific Coast States increased 6 percent, Alaska 14 percent, Lakes States4 percent, and Middle Atlantic States I percent, while the New England catch decreased8 percent. As a result of a general increase in the price paid for fishery products in

1943, fishermen received more for their catch than in any previous year. Available dataindicate that fishermen received an average of 4.86 cents per pound for their catch in

1943, as compared with 4.39 cent s per pound in 1942 and 2.64 cents per pound in 1941. Thetotal volumeof the production of canned fishery products decreased 6 percentand the valuedecreased 3 percent. The value of packaged fish increased 9 percent and that of fisherybyproducts increased 16 percent, due largely to large increases in the volume and value ofthe production of fish meal and oil.

The total catch of fi shery products inthe United States and Al aska as based upon surveysfor 1943 in all areas except the Chesapeake, South At I ant i c and Gu I f , and Mississippi Riverand tri butaries which are for 1942, 1940, and 1931, respectively, amounted to 3,952,901,000pounds, valued to the fishermen at $178,749,000. However, it is estimated that if completedataonthe 1943 catch had been avai I ab I e fo r al I sections, the total production would haveamounted to about 4,202,000,000 pounds, val ued at about $204,000,000. The following table,

which contains recorded production for the areas in which surveys were conducted and esti-mates for other areas, indicates the trend of the yield and value of the domestic catchduring recent years:

Year Pounds Value to fishermen

1939 4,443,328,000 $96,532,0001940 4,059,524,000 98,957,0001941 5,080,341,000 134, 172,000

1942 3,876,524,000 170,338,0001943 4,202,000,000 204,000,000

The production of canned fishery products in the United States and Alaska during 1943

amounted to 620,880,523 pounds, val ued at $14 1,188,792, the output of byp roducts was valued

at $59,136,266, and the p roduct i on of frozen fi shery p roducts, excluding packaged products,

amounted to 138,031,023 pounds, estimated to be valued at $24,500,000. Based on the most

recent surveys, the production of cured fishery products amounted to 91,754,549 pounds,

valued at $14,109,864, and fresh and frozen packaged fish and shellfish, 267,922,998pounds, valued at $56,477,111. It is estimated that about 693,000,000 pounds of fresh

fishery products (excluding fresh packaged fish and shellfish), valued at $118,000,000,

were marketed during 1943. The total market value to domestic primary handlers of all

fishery products in 1943 is estimated at $4 13,4 12,033.

New England States .— The commercial catch of fishery products in these States for 1943

showed a decrease of 8 percent in volume, but an increase of 18 percent in value comparedwith 1942. The value of the 1943 catch was the largest on record. Of the major species,mackerel was the only item to show any appreciable increase over 1942. Receipts of rose-

fish, haddock, cod, pollock, whiting, and flounders, were all landed in smaller amountsthan the previous year. The catch of shellfish, however, did show a slight increase in

1943, due largely to a substantial gain in lobster landings.

GENERAL REVIEW

Middle Atlantic States .— The 1943 catch of fishery products in the Middle Atlantic

States showed an increase of less than one percent in volume, but a gain of 45 percent in

value as compared with 1942. Menhaden, 196,258,600 pounds, wh i ch accounted for 51 percent

of the total catch, was 8 million pounds less than the p rev i ous year. Whiting, 13,504,900

pounds, was reported at 4 million pounds above 1942. The valueofthe production of canned

fishery products and fish meals decreased, while that of fish oils was greater than 1942.

Although many fishermen entered the armed services during the year, the high prices for

fi shery products att racted rep I acements and 7, 458 fishermen engaged in the taking of fishery

products during 1943— an increase of 9 I I compared with the previous year.

Chesapeake Bay States .— No survey was made of the employment of fishermen, fishing

craft and gear, or the catch of fishery products in the Chesapeake Bay States for 1943.

Data obtained in connect ion with the annual canned fishery products and byproducts surveys

indicate the valueofthe pack of canned products in 1943 was 46 percent above the previous

year. A large gain in the pack of alewives and alewife roe accounted for the increase.

The catch of menhaden and the production of menhaden scrap and meal increased about 40

percent over the p revious year, however, theyieldofmenhadenoil showedaslightdeclinebecause of the low oi I content of the fish.

South Atlantic and Gulf States .— No survey was made of the employment of fishermen,

fishing craft and gear, or the catch of fishery products in the South Atlantic and Gulf

States for 1943. Data obtained in the canned fishery products and byproducts survey of

these States showed a small decline in the p roduct ion of canned oysters and a large decline

in the pack of canned shrimp. The pack of shrimp, 471,520 standard cases, was 30 percent

below the 1942 pack and 41 percent below the 1940 production.

The catch of menhaden, in the South Atlantic and Gulf States, during 1943 amounted to

33 1,600,000 pounds, an increase of 54 percent compared with the 1942 catch.

Pacific Coast States .— The commercial catch of fishery products in the Pacific Coast

States was 6 percent greater in volume and 16 percent more in value than in 1942. The

total catch was almost exactly equivalent to that of 1940, but the value was nearly double.

Catches of mackerel,

pilchard, tuna, rockfi sh, and sharks wereall above 1942, while salmon,

sole, and Pacific oysters were less. More than 9 million pounds of squid were landed as

compared with 960,400 pounds in 1942. The pack of salmon declined 64 percent, and canned

sardines, 10 percent, however, the p roduct ion of canned tuna showed an 8.5 percent increase

and that of mackerel was 35 percent above the p revi ous year. There were also increases in

the p roduct ion of p i I chard, tuna and mackerel meals and oils and of liver oils as compared

with 1942. The number of fishermen employed in the three Pacific Coast States in 1943

totaled 23, 108— an increase of 2,061 over the previous year.

Great Lakes States .— In 1943, the commerci al catch of fish by United States fishermen

in the Great Lakes and the International lakes of Northern Minnesota increased 4 percent

above the preceding year, while the value increased 42 percent. Among the major species,

the catch of blue pike, 11,272,700 pounds, showed the largest variation compared with the

previous year. Fishermen took over 5 mi I I ion more poundsof these fish- than in 1942. The

catchofblue pike was the la rg est since 1936, however, the catch of lakeherring 17, 894, 000

pounds, was the smallest since 1933.

Mississippi River and tributaries .— The most recent complete statistics of the catch

in the Mississippi River and i ts t ri butari es are those for 1931. Data obtained in the 1943

survey of the production of fishery byproducts showed that there was a decline in theproduction of fresh-water mussel-shel I buttons compared with the previous year.

Alaska .— The catch of fishery products in Alaska in 1943 increased 14 percent in

both volume and value as compared with 1942. A total of 23,7 11 persons were employed in

catching, t ransport i ng, and t he wholesaling and manufactu ri ng of fi shery products in Alaskaduring 1943— an increase of 495 compared with the previous year. The p roduct i on of fresh,

frozen, and canned fishery products and byproducts showed increases in volume and valuecompared with 1942, however, the p roduct i on of cu red fish declined due to a large decreasein the pack of mild-cured salmon. The herring catch, although not equal to that of 1941,was 107 percent above 1942.

MANUFACTURED FISHERY PRODUCTS

The output of manufactured products (canned, cured, packaged, and byproducts) in the

United States and Alaska during the most recent years for which these data are available

was valued at $270,917, 147. Of this amount, canned products accounted for 52 percent;

byproducts, 22 percent; packaged fish, 14 percent; packaged shellfish, 7 percent; smoked

fish, 3 percent; and salted, pickled, and dried fish, 2 percent.

Since general statistical surveys were not conducted in all areas of the United States

for 1943 data, the following compilation of manufactured fishery products consists of

composite data, based on the most recent statistics available. Data on the production of

canned p roducts and byp roduct s are for 1943 and cover all sect i ons of t he United States and

Alaska. Data on packaged fish also are for 1943 and are complete, except for California,

for all sections of the United States and Alaska. Information on the production of cured

products and packaged shellfish are for 1943 in Alaska, and for 1940 in all other sect i ons

except the Mississippi River which are for 1931.

FROZEN FISH TRADE

FISH FROZENA total of 246,053,445 pounds of fishery products were frozen during 1943 by domestic

freezing p I ants that reported thei r act i v i t i es to the government. At the t ime thesep roductswere held in cold-storage, they were est i mated to be valued at $55,000,000. Compared withthe production in 1942, this is decrease of less than I percent in volume but an increaseof 45 percent in the estimated value of the products.

Eight items accounted for 52 percent of thepoundage frozen. These were whiting, whichaccounted for 13 percent of the total; rosefish fillets, II percent; mackerel, 7 percent;halibut, 6 percent, shrimp, 6 percent; and cod fillets, haddock fillets, and sea herring,each 3 percent.

According to geographical sections, the New England States led all other sections in

the freezings of fishery products, accounting for 41 percent of the total. The PacificCoast States ranked second in the total freezings, with 26 percent of the total.

The bulk of the production occurred between May and November with the largest monthlyfreezings being made in July and August.

These statistics in this section were furnished by the War Foods Administration.

SECTION 2.- NEW ENGLAND FISHERIES

IArea XXI1)3

The yield of the commercial fisheries of the New England States (Maine, New Hampshire,

Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut) during 1943 amounted to 645,590,500 pounds,

valued at $43,003, 165 to the fishermen, representing a decrease of 8 percent in volume but

an increase of 18 percent in value as compared with the catch in 1942. These fisheries

gave employment to 16,755 fishermen as compared with 15,044 fishermen in 1942. Of this

number 4,431 were emp I oyed on vessel s and 12,324 were engaged inthe boat and sho re f i shery.

Canned fishery products, valued at $14,185,167, were packed in 48 plants in the NewEngland States, while 35 p I ants p roduced byp roduct s, valued at $3,604,834. The productionof packaged fish (fresh and frozen fillets and steaks! was valued at $26,345,939.

3 This number was assigned to this area by the North American Council on Fishery Investi-gations. It should be explained that there are included in this area craft whose principal

fishing ports are in the area but at times fish elsewhere . A notable example is the

southern trawl fishery which extends into Area XXIV. It should be observed that data on

the seed-oyster fishery , such as number of persons engaged, craft and gear employed, and

catch, are not included in the statistics of the fishery for market oysters and otherspecies but are included in a foot note to the table showing the catch of the Hew EnglandStates which appears on page 53. For a description of the methods used in collecting andcompiling these statistics , and an account of the years for which data have been collected,

the reader is referred to Section 11 of this document entitled, "Statistical Survey Pro-cedure".

LANDINGS AT CERTAIN NEW ENGLAND PORTS

Because of the importance of the ports of Boston, Gloucester, and New Bedford, Mass.,

and Portland, Maine, as landing points for fishery products, detailed monthly statistics

have been collected on these landings and are presented in the following pages.

4 The reader is referred to Section n of this document for an account of the years for

which surveys of these fisheries have been made.

VESSEL LANDINGS AT BOSTON, GLOUCESTER, AND PORTLAND

Economic aspect

During I943 landings of fishery products at Boston, Gloucester, and Portland, (see

Page 95 for data on New Bedford landings) by vessels of 5 net tons capacity or more,

amounted to 331,363,060 pounds as landed, valued at $22,520,198 to the fishermen. This

was a decrease of II percent in volume but an increase of 17 percent in value as compared

with 1942. For the first time since 1907, the landings at Gloucester exceeded those at

Boston due largely to the heavy landings of rosef i sh. Landings at Gloucester amounted to

170,098,754 pounds, valued at $9,046,538, or 51 percent of the total receipts; those at

Boston amounted to 142,975,235 pounds, valued at $12,603,640 or 43 percent of the total;

while those at Portl and amounted to 18,289,07 1 pounds, valued at $870,020, or 6 percent of

the total .

SECTION 3.- MIDDLE ATLANTIC FISHERIES(Area XXII1)5

The yield of the commercial fisheries of the Middle Atlantic States (New York, New

Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware! during 1943 amounted to 321,025,700 pounds, valued

at $18,045,820 to the fishermen. This represents an increase of less than one percent in

volume but of 45 percent in value compared with the catch in 1942. These fisheries gaveemployment to 7,458 fishermen compared with 6,547 in 1942. There were no commercialfisheries prosecuted in the coastal waters of Pennsylvania during 1943.

Canned fishery products, valued at $1,509,591 were packed in I0_ plants in the MiddleAtlantic States, while 46 p I ants p roduced byp roducts, valued at $8,588,976. The p roduct i on

of packaged fish (fresh and frozen fillets and steaks) was valued at $4,687,122.

5 This number was assigned to this area by the /forth American Council on Fishery Investi-gations. It should be explained that there are included in this area craft whose principalfishing ports are in the area but at times fish elsewhere . A notable example is the

southern trawl fishery which extends into Area XXIV. It should be observed that data on

the seed-oyster fishery, such as number of persons engaged, craft and gear employed, and

catch, are not inc luded in the statistics of the fishery for market oysters and otherspecies but are inc luded in a footnote to the table showing the catch of the Middle AtlanticStates which appears on Page no. For a description of the methods used in col Meeting and

compiling these statistics and an account of the years for which data have been collected,the reader is referred toSection n of this document entitled "Statistical Survey Procedure"

HUDSON RIVER SHAD FISHERY 6

The shad fishery of the Hudson River in 1943 was p rosecuted by 608 fishermen who made a

commercial catch amounting to I, 121,437 shad, having a weight of 3,225,350 pounds with a

value of $357,356 to these fishermen. This was an increase of 9 percent in the number of

shad, and 74 percent in their value, as compared with the catch during 1942. The average

price per pound received by the fishermen was about II cents, almost double that of 1942.

Stake gill nets accounted for 67 percent of the weight of the shad taken; drift gill

nets, 32 percent; and haul seines and stake stop nets comprised the remai n i ng one percent

.

Statistics of the patch of shad in the Hudson River also are includedinthe catch data

for New York and New Jersey.

The reader is referred to Section n of this document for an account of the years for

which surveys of this fishery have been made.

SECTION 4.- CHESAPEAKE FISHERIES

(AREA XXIII) 7

The most recent stat i st i cs on the commerc i al fisheries of the Chesapeake States (Maryland

and Virginia) are those for 1942. During that year the catch amounted to 202,240,100

pounds, valued at $10,061,041 to the fishermen. These fi sheri es gave employment to 10,679

fishermen and 7,182 craft were employed.

Detailed statistics of these fisheries for 1942 appear in Statistical Digest No. II,

entitled "Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1942". A summary of these fisherie-s

appears in the following tables.

7 This number has been assigned to this area by the North American Council on Fishery

Investigations. It should be explained that there may be included under this area, craft

whose principal fishing ports are in this area but at times fish elsewhere. Data on the

operating units and catch of the fisheries of the Chesapeake States have beentaken largely

from statistics collected by the State fishery agencies of Maryland and Virginia. Supple-

mentary surveys, compilations, and analyses, have been made by agents of this Service in

order that the figures may be presented in a manner comparable with those of other sections.

It should be observed that data on the seed-oyster fishery, such as number of persons

engaged, craft and gear employed, and catch, are not included in the statistics of the

fishery for market oysters or other species but are included in a footnote to the table

showing the catch of the Chesapeake States, which appears on Page 128. For a description

of the methods used in collecting and compiling these statistics and an account of the

years for which data have been collected, the reader is referred to Section 21 of this

document entitled, "Statistical Survey Procedure".

POTOMAC RIVER SHAD AND ALEWIFE FISHERY s

The most recent year for which data are available on the catch of shad and alewives in

the Potomac River is for 1942. During that year 104,076 shad, valued at $28,578 to thefishermen, and 6.702,050 alewives, valued at $36,453, were taken in the Potomac Riverwaters by commercial fishermen.

Aside from that of 1941, the 1942 shad catch was the lowest ever recorded. In formeryears the catch has reached as h i gh as three-quarter million f i sh, as was the case i n 1932,however, the catch since 1934 has never exceeded 200,000 fish.

Statistics on the catch of shad and alewives in the Potomac River are also included in

trie catch data for Maryland and Virginia.

The reader is referred to Section 11 of this document for an account of the years forwhich surveys of this fishery have been made.

SECTION 5.- SOUTH ATLANTIC AND GULF FISHERIES

(South Atlantic, Area XXIV; Gulf, Area XXV)9

The most recent complete fishery statistics for the South Atlantic and Gulf States

(North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Al abama, Mi ssi ss i pp i , Louisiana, and

Texas) are those collected for the year 1940. In that year the yield of the commercial

fisheries amounted to 575,533,400 pounds, valued at $14,644,895 to the fishermen, repre-

senting a decrease of 8 percent in quantity but an increase of 5 percent in value as com-

pared with the catch in 1939. Detailed statistics of these fisheries for 1940 appear in

Statistical Digest No. 4, entitled "Fishery Statistics of the United States, 1940". A

summary of these fisheries appears in the following tables.

9 These numbers were assigned to these areas by the North Atlantic Council on Fishery

Investigations. Whi le the catch of fishery products in Lake Okeechobee is included in the

Florida catch tables, the catch of the Mississippi River and tributaries does not appear

in this section. For a description of the methods used in collecting and compiling these

statistics and an account of the years for which data were collected, the reader is referred

to Section n of this document entitled "Statistical Survey Procedure".

No data were collected on the packaged fish industry in Californiafo r this year.

Data on the operating units and catch of the fisheries of the Pacific Coast States havebeen taken largely from statistics collected by the various State agencies. Supplementarysurveys, compilations

, and analyses, have been made by agents of this Service in orderthat the figures may be presented in a manner comparable with those of other sections.While statistics on the fisheries of California are forthe calendar year, those for Oregonand Washington are for the fiscal year ending March 32, 1944, except that statistics ofthe halibut fishery for Washington are for the calendar year. For a description of themethods used in collecting and compiling these statistics and an account of the years forwhich data have been collected, the reader is referred to Section 11 of this documententit led, "Statistical' Survey Procedure "

LANDINGS BY HALIBUT FLEET AT SEATTLE, WASH.

It has been customary in previous repo rts of th i s series to include detailed statistics

on the receipts of fishery products by wholesale dealers in Seattle, Washington. This

year, however, only a summary of the data isincluded in this report. For detailed infor-

mation on these receipts the reader is referred to the monthly fishery summaries released

by the Seattle Market News Office of this Service.

According to the reports issued by the Seattle office, a total of 58,746,260 pounds of

fishery products, valued at $11,203,889, were handled by Seattle wholesale dealers during

1943. These receipts are excl us i ve of quant it i es received by rail or transporting vessels

from Alaska or Canada. The 1943 receipts rep resent an i ncrease of 7 percent in volume and

40 percent in value as compared with the returns of the preceeding year.

Landings by vessels of the United States halibut fleet, including livers and viscera,

amounted to 16,465,7 11 pounds, valued at $3,320,463 representing a decrease of 10 percent

in volume but an increase of 18 percent in value as compared with the 1942 landings.

A summary of the 1943 halibut landings at Seattle by the United States halibut fleet

is contained on the following page. For additional information on the Pacific Coast

halibut fishery the reader is referred to Section 10 of this document, page 199, entitled

"Review of Certain Major Fisheries".

SECTION 7.- LAKE FISHERIES2

In 1943, the yield of the fisheries of the Great Lakes and the International Lakes of

Northern Minnesota in the.United States and Canada, amounted to 104,861,600 pounds, repre-

senting an increase of 7 percent as compared with the catch in the preceding year.

Considering the fishery of United States craft only, the catch amounted to 78,221,300pounds, valued at $12,267,602, which was an increase of 4 percent in volume and 42 percent

in value as compared with the 1942 catch.

In 1940, the latest year for which a complete survey was made, the Lake fisheries gave

employment to 5, 142 fishermen.

12 The statistics of the catch were obtained principally from records of the various State

agencies and from the Dominion Bureau of Statistics , Ottawa, Canada. The data for the

operating units (fishermen, vessels, boats, and gear! of the United States, which are forlg^o, were obtained largely by agents of this Service in a special survey, although State

records in several instances were very helpful in this work. In all cases, the statistics

collected are for the calendar year except for Rainy Lake, Lake of the Woods, and Namakan

Lake in Minnesota , which are for two seasons; for Lake of the Woods, the seasons are fromJune l to November l and December l to April i; and for Rainy and Namaken Lakes the seasonsare fromMay 25 to November 1 and December 1 to April 1. The catches forthesetwo seasons,

in the order named, have been combined to constitute a year. The quantity of fish taken

in these Lakes between January 1 and April 1 is estimated to be less than 3 percent ofthe total catch. For a description of the methods used in collecting and compiling these

statistics and an account of the years for which data have been collected the reader is

referred to Section 11 of this document entitled "Statistical Survey Procedure"

SECTION 9- ALASKA FISHERIES 3

The commencial catch of fishery products in Alaska during 1943 amounted to 594,644,67 1

pounds, valued at $20,505,941 to the fishermen, representing an increase of 14 percent in

volume and 14 percent in value as compared with the catch in 1942. These gains were duelargely to the greatly increased catches of herring in Central Alaska and red salmon in

the Western district. The 1943 catch of pink salmon in Southeast Alaska showed a substan-tial decrease fromthat of 1942, due largelytothe cyclical nature of the pink sal mo n runs

in that district. The Alaska fisheries gave employment to 23,7 11 persons during 1943 as

compared to 23,216 in 1942, an increase of 2 percent. No whaling operations were conductedin Alaska during 1943.

1 3 Statistics on the fisheries of Alaska are collected and compiled by the Alaska Division

of this Service. A summary of these statistics appears in this section. For detailed

information onthe fisheries of Alaska, the reader is referred to Statistical Digest Ho. 10,

entitled "Alaska Fishery and Fur Seal Industries: 1943", by Ward T. Bower.

SECTION 10.- REVIEW OF CERTAIN MAJOR FISHERIES

There is presented in this section of the Digest complete data on the catch of certainof the major speci es of f i shery p roducts taken commerci al I y intheUnited States and Alaska.These data are included in the detailed catch tables for the various States but have beenrepubl ishedinindividual fishery tablesinthis portion of the repo rt. Th i s has been donein order to provide readers with a single sour ce of catch data for the halibut, mackerel,menhaden, pilchard, tuna, and whale fisheries. Mostof these species are taken by fi shermenoperating inseveral Stat es o r d i st ri cts, and a number are taken by several types of fishinggear. Because of this, the casual reader of the Digest often experiences difficulty in

locating complete data on the catch of the species mentioned above. The information con-tained in this section includes the volume and value of the catch by individual types ofgear, and by States or districts.

PACIFIC COAST HALIBUT FISHERYThe halibut fisheryofthe Pacific Coast, which isprosecuted by United States (including

Alaskan) and Canadian vessels, ranks as one of the foremost fisheries of that section.During 1943, thetotal catch of hal i but by craft of both nationalities amounted to 52, 10,000

pounds, val.ued at $9,699,000. This is an increase of 6 percent in volume, and 35 percent

in value, ascompared with the returns for the previous year. Of the total catch in 1943,

75 percent was taken by United States craft and 25 percent by Canadian craft. Consideredaccording to ports of landing, 25 percent was I anded at Seattle, Washington, 48 percent at

Canadian ports, and 27 percent at ports in Alaska.

The captureofhalibut off the Pacific Coast of North America isregulated by the Inter-

national Fisheries Commission, appointed under the treaty between the United States and

Canada for the preservation of the North Pacific halibut fishery. The 1943 halibut season

opened on April 16, one day earlier than in the previous year. Halibut fishing in Areas

I and II (South of Cape Spencer) closed on June 20, 9 days earlier than in 1942, and con-

stituted the shortest halibut season inthese two areas. Halibut fishing in Areas III and

IV (West of Cape Spencer) ended September 8, as compared with September 25 in 1942. The

main reasons for the shorter season were; the increased number of craft in the fishery;

the reduction in the voluntary tie up period between trips; and the larger trip limits per

fi shermen.

STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE210

SECTION 11.- STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

This report is another in a series of annua I statistical reports containing data on the

quantity and value of the commercial catch of fishery products and the numbers of persons

and operating units engaged in the commercial fisheries of the United States and Alaska.

The report has been prepared and published by the Division of Commercial Fisheries, Fish

and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior, and is a continuation of a series in-

augurated by its predecessor organizations in the Departments of the Interior, Commerce,

Commerce and Labor, and the United States Fish Commission.

In order that those who use the statistical data contained in this and previous reports

of the DivisTon may be informed as to the source of the figures and methods for their col-

lection, it has been deemed advisable to outline, in moderate detail, the survey procedure

followed. This procedure has been developed over a period of years, and changes in method

have been made at times when such changes have appeared to work toward general improvement.

While the surveys in the several sections are not made in the same manner, owing to vary-

ing facilities and records in different States, an attempt has been made to make the data

col lected by various methods in the producing areas comparable with respect to the same year

as well as over a period of years. Throughout the entire plan it has been the intention to

coordinate Stat*e and Federal fishery statistical worksothat there will be as little dup-

lication of effort as possible.

The procedure will be discussed under two main heads, "Sectional surveys" and "Loca I and

special surveys".

SECTIONAL SURVEYS

Statistical surveys of the fisheries and fishery industries of the various sections of

the United States occupy by far the greatest part of the time of the statistical personnel

of the Division. In the course of these surveys, the field representatives visit the in-

dividual fishing localities of the various States to collect statistics on the volume and

value of the catch of fish and shellfish, employment in the fisheries, quantity of fishing

gear, number and classification of fishing and t ransport i ng craft, emp I oyme nt in wholesale

and manufacturing estab I ishments, and the volume and va I ue of manufactured fishery products

and byproducts. The various phases of these surveys are discussed indetail in the sections

fol lowing.

History. —The first comprehensive statistical survey of the fisheries and fishery

industries of the Un ited • States was madeforthe year 1880 by George Brown Goode, Assistant

Director of the United States National Museum, and associates, withthe cooperation of the

Commissioner of Fisheries and the Superintendent of the Tenth Census. Data for specific

fisheries, or restricted sections for years prior to 1880, alsowere collected inthis early

survey and recorded in Mr. Goode's reports. The survey for 1880, however, did not include

the Mississippi River and tributaries. Period ic general surveys of a limited number of

States or limited areas of the United States were made for various of the intervening years

between 1880 and 1908 and from 1909 to 1928. In 1908 a survey of the entire United States

was made. The next general survey of the entire United States was not made until 1931,

although complete data for all sections, excluding the Mississippi River and tributaries,

were collected for 1929 and 1930. Complete data on the catch and operating units for all

sections, excluding the Mississippi River and its tributaries, were collected for 1932.

In the latter survey, however, lack of sufficient funds prohibited collection of data on

wholesale and manufactur i ng operations except those data collected as a part of the canned

fishery products and byproducts survey. Complete canvasses for catch and operating units

were made of the Pacific Coast States fortheyears 1933 to 1943, inclusive; the Chesapeake

States for the years 1933 to 1942, inclusive; the New England and Middle Atlantic States

for 1933, 1935, foreachyear from 1937 to 1940, inclusive, and for 1942 and 1943; and the

South Atlantic, Gulf, and Lake States for 1934, and fortheyears 1936 to 1940, inclusive.

Data on the wholesale and manufacturing industries were collected in all of the surveys

from the years 1932 to 1940, but were not co I I ected fortheyears 194 1 to 1943, inclusive.

In these years the lack of personnel precluded collection of data on wholesale and manu-

facturing firms except those data collected as a part of the canned fishery products and

byproducts surveys. Complete data on the catch of the Lakes States also were collected

for 1933, and 1935 and for the years 1941 to 1943, inclusive.

SECTIONAL SURVEYS21 I

Following is a summary indicating the years for which statistics were collected on thefisheries and fishery industries in the various sections. Figures for the more recent yearsare avai I able from the Serv ice in bu I let in form, but data for.the ear I ier years are avai lableonly in the various printed reports of the Service. These reports are available for re-ference in the Department of the Interior library and at many public libraries.

In the New England States, statistics on the catch of the marine fisheries, and thoseconducted in the coastal rivers and bays of these States, were collected for the years1880, 1887 to 1889, inclusive, 1898, 1902, 1905. 1908, 1919. 1924, 1928 to 1933, inclusive,

1935, 1937 to 1940, inclusive, and 1942 and 1943. Formost of these years dataon operatinguni ts and whol esal e and manufacturing trade al so were co I I ected. In addition to the above,partial statistical surveys were made for the entire section in 1892; the fisheries in

Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts for the fiscal year 1897; the lobster fishery for1900 and 1913; the oyster fishery for 1910; the shad and al ewi fe fisheries for 1896; themenhaden industry for 1912; the fisheries of Massachusetts for 1879; and the fisheries ofConnecticut for 1925 and 1926.

Statistics on the catch of marine fisheries and those conducted in the coastal riversand bays of the Middle Atlantic States were collected for the years 1880, 1887 to 1891.inclusive, 1897 and 1898, inclusive, 1901, 1904. 1908, 1921, 1926, 1929 through 1933, in-

clusive, 1935, 1937 to 1940, inclusive, and 1942 and 1943. Data on operating units andwholesale and manufactu ri ng t rade al so were collected fo r most of these years. In additionto these, a statistical survey was made of the coastal fisheries in these States in 1915;

the catch in all States, except New York, in 1892; the shad and alewife fisheries in 1896;

the shad f i sheri es of theDelaware River in 19 10; the menhaden industry in 1912; the lobsterf i sheri es in 1900 and 1913; andtheoysterfishery in 1911. Theyearsforwhichstatisticsare availaDle on the shad fishery of the Hudson River are given in the section entitled"Shad and alewife fisheries".

In the Chesapeake Bay States, statistics on the catch of the marine fisheries and thoseconducted in the coastal rivers and bays of these States were collected for the years 1880,

1887 and 1888. 1890 and 1891, 1897, 1901, 1904. 1908. 1920, 1925, and for the years from

1929 to 1942, inclusive. Data on operating un i ts and wno i esal e ana manufacturing trade alsowere collected for most of these years. In addition to the above, a statistical survey was

made of the crab fishery for 1915; the oyster fishery and menhaden industry for 19 12; and

the shad and alewife fisheries for 1896; 1909, and 1915. The years for which statisticsof the shad and alewife f i she r ies of the Potomac R i ver are ava i lab le are given inthe sectionentitled "Shad and alewife fisheries".

In the South Atlantic and Gulf States statistics on the catch of the marine fisheriesand those conducted in the coastal rivers and bays of these States were collected for theyears 1880, 1888 to 1890, inclusive, 1897, 1902, 1908, 1918, 1923, 1927 through 1932, 1934,

and 1936 to 1940, inclusive. Data on operating units and wholesale and manufacturing trade

also were co I I ected for most ofthese years. In addition to the above, a statistical survey

was made of the f ishe ri es of these States, excluding Fl orlda and Al abama, for 1887; the shad

fishery of the South Atlantic States for 1910; the shad and alewife fisheries of the South

Atlantic States for 1896; the sturgeon f I shery of Florida for 1900; the menhaden Industry of

the South Atlantic States for 1912; the shrimp fishery for 1916; the oyster fishery of the

South Atlantic States for 1910; and the oyster, fishery of the Gulf States for 1911.

In the Pacific Coast States statistics on the catch of the marine fisheries and those

conducted In the coastal rivers and bays of these States were collected for the years 1880,

1888, 1892, 1895, 1899, 1904, 1908, 1915, and for all of the years from 1922 to 1943, in-

clusive. These surveys have usually included data on operating units and wholesale and

manufacturing trade. In addition to the above, statistics were obtained on the fisheries

of California from 1918 to 1921, inclusive, and for the oyster fishery in 1912.

Statistics on the catch of the fisheries of the Great Lakes were collected for the years

1880, 1885, 1890, 1893, 1899, 1903, 1908, and for the years from 19 13 to 1943, Inclusive.

Stat ist ics"of the operating units andofthe wholesal e and manufactu ring trade were col I ected

for most of the years for which canvasses were made from 1880 to 1908, Inclusive, and in

1917 and I922aswell as fpr most of the years from 1926 to 1942. In addition to the above,

a survey was made of the fisheries of Lake Ontario and of certain fisheries in other lakes

for the year 1897.


Statistics of the catch of the fisheries of the Mississippi River and its tributaries

were collected for the years 1894, 1899, 1903, 1908, 1922, and 1931. In addition, figures

have been obtained on the fisheries of Lakes Pepin and Koekuk for the years 1914 and 19 17

and the years from 1927 to 1938, Inclusive, and of the fisheries of the Mississippi River

between Lakes Pepin and Keokuk for the years 1929 to 1938, inclusive.

Statistics also were collected on the fisheries of certain interior waters, other than

the fisheries of the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River and its tributaries, for the

years 1894, 1895, 1900 and 1902.

Field Personnel. —The statistics contained in this volume have been collected by a

group of trai ned marketing specialists which comprises a part of the permanent staff of the

Division of commercial Fisheries of this Service.

Period Covered.—These specialists are assigned permanent field stations, generally in

the principal port within their field, and travel from that station in conducting their

various surveys. They collect statistics of fishery operations for the year preceeding

that in which they are working; and since their field work occupies the greater part of

the year, it is usually at least a year from the end of the calendar year for which they

are collecting" data until the figures are published. The data usually are collected and

publ ished on a cal endar year basis, al though fo r some States they are on a fiscal year basis.

Prior to 1930, statist ics on the catch of oysters in the Atlantic and Gulf States were col-

lected for the oyster season; that is, from September to April, inclusive. Beginning with

1930 and continuing to the present time, they have been collected on the basis of the ca-

I endar year.

Scope.—The scopeofthe coastal statistical surveys include canvasses of the commercial

f isheries of the oceans and bays and of the coastal rivers as far inland as commercial fish-

ing i s important. This usually colnc ides with the range of commerc ial fishing for anadramous

species. Statistics of the fisheries of the Mississippi River cover canvasses of the

fisheries ofthe Mississippi Riverproperaswell as all of its tributaries where in commerc ial

fishing for either fi sh, crustaceans, ormollusks i s prosecuted. Statistics of the fisheries

of the Great Lakes cover canvasses of the fisheries prosecuted in the lakes proper, adjacent

bays, the International Lakes of northern Minnesota, and rivers which sustain a commercial

fishery having outlets into these waters. Statistics on the fisheries of Florida include

the commercial fisheries prosecuted in Lake Okeechobee. Surveys for statistics of the

wholesale and manufacturing fishery industries cover such plants located in the coastal,

river, and lake areas adjacent to the waters mentioned above.

Methods of Collection.— Several methods for the collection of fishery statistics are

employed, each of which has been carefully studied to obtain the best results with the

available personnel and funds. In most instances the field personnel obtain lists of the

names of fishing vessels, names and numbers of motorboats, and names of owners of these

craft from local custom officials. Also it usually is possible to obtain the names of

licensed commercial fi shermen and some stat i st i cs on the catch from State fishery agencies;

from other State, county or city sources; or from private organizations.

With such preliminary records as are available for their guidance the field specialists

visit each fishing commun i ty i n thei r f i el d un I ess these preliminary records are so compl ete

that personal visits may be el imi nated. If complete catch dataarenot available from cen-

tral sources, wholesale dealers and manufactu rers of f i she ry products are visited and data

are obtained from them on their purchases of fishery products. While it is impossible for

the fewService representatives available for this work to interview each fishermen in a

given locality, the more important ones are visited, and a sufficient number of those of

lesser importance are interviewed to obtain reliable information on their production, the

number of fishing craft employed, the quantity of gear operated, and the number of persons

employed as fishermen.

IntheGreat Lakes and Paci fi c Coast States such except ional cooperation has been obtained

in recent years from the State fishery agencies in the collection of statistics that only

fragmentary surveys needbemade by the Se rvi ces spec i al i sts to obtai n other necessary data.

Also the State fishery agencies in Maine, New York, and Maryland more recently have devel-

oped very complete statistical systems which greatly facilitate the Services' surveys

i n these States.

SECTIONAL SURVEYS2 , 3

As regards the fi sheri es of the Great Lakes and I nternat ional lakes of Northern Minnesota,the Service obtains most of the cat ch-st at i sties and usual I y the value of the catch di rectfrom the recordsofthe State fishery agencies. To obtain data on the number of fi shermen,boats, vessels, and gear, the Service conducts such personal surveys among the fishermenas may be necessary to supp.l ement the State records.

Service statistical personnel are stationed at Seattle, Wash., and San Pedro, Calif.,who survey the f i sheri es of the Pacific Coast States. As a ru I e they obtai n figures on thevolume of the catch from the records of the State fishery departments. The value of thecatch is derived from dealers' records. In Washington and Oregon, the offshore fisheriesare surveyed separately by the Service to obtain data on the number of operating units.Statistics of the wholesale fishery industry for this section are obtained largely by per-sonal interviews.

In the admi n i st rat ion of the Alaska fisheries the Service obtains sworn statements con-

cerning the activities of those prosecuting the fisheries in this area. These statements

are compiled by the Alaska Division of this Service and the summary data, by districts,

are reproduced in this report.

Statistics on the volume of the catch of fish of the Great Lakes States usually are

shown in weights as landed, which may be in the round o r d ressed condition. Statistics on

the volume of the catch of fish taken in the remainder of the United States are shown in

round weight.

The figures in the tables for shellfish represent the weight of the meats in the cases

of univalve and bivalve mollusks and gastrapods, and the round weight of crustaceans and

such mollusks as squid arrd octopus.

Shore and vesse I fisheries.'— In general, stat i st i cs of the shore fisheries, as collected

by the Servi ces' representatives, i ncl ude data on the number of casual and regular fishermen;

number of moto r and other fishing boats and accessory boats; type and quant i ty of gear used;

and the volume, value, andmethod of capture of each species caught by boats (for our pur-

pose craft of less than 5 net tons capacity are called "boats") for each locality or group

of localities. This method is not followed i n some sections where the avai I ab i I i ty of datacol I ected by the States f i shery agenci es obv i ates the necessi ty of detai I ed locality surveys.

Stat i st i cs of the vessel fisheries i ncl ude dataon the number of the crew, rig of vessels,net tonnage, kind and quantity of gear used, accessory boats carried, and volume, value,and method of capture of each species. For our purpose craft of 5 net tons capacity ormo re are cal I ed "vessel s". As i n the shore fi sheri es, the avai I abi I i ty of f i gu res col I ectedby State fishery agencies may eliminate the necessity of our agents collecting these datafor individual vessels.

Statistics of the quant i ty of gear operated indicate the maximum number of units fished

at any one time during the year. Gear carried i n reserve fo r rep I acement i s not enumerated.

All persons engaged in commercial fishing operations are i nc I uded as fi shermen. For our

purpose these have been divided into "regular" and "casual" fishermen. Regular fishermen

are defined as those who receive more than one-half of their annual income from fishing;

whereas casual fishermen arethose whose principal business issomething otherthan fishing,

and who receive less than one-half of their annual compensation from fishing.

The catchoffish and shellfish is credited to the port where it is I anded and the craft

making the catch is credited to the locality where it landed the greatest portion of its

catch during the year. Prior to the survey for 1942 i t was the practice of the Service to

credit the entire catch of a vessel to the principal port of landing, regardless of the

actual point of landing. This policy was discontinued, however, since it quite often

resulted in inconsistencies by presenting catches of certain fish in areas to which they

are not common inasmuch as -fishing vessels frequently operate in areas far removed from

their principal fishing port. An outstanding examp I e ot th i s isthe case of the Southern

trawl fishery. In this fishery off the New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, and No rth Carol i na

coasts, many fishing vessels from Massachusetts operate for 6 to 10 weeks during the


winter season. Prior to the survey for 1942 the catch of these fish, principally common

to these waters, was credited to Massachusetts. Under the present system the catch is

credited to the southern port at which it was landed and the vessel, crew, and gear are

credited to the port at which the major portion of their catch was landed.

Wholesale and Manufacturing Trade. — All persons or firms engaged in the wholesale

buying and selling of fishery products or who produce manufactured fishery products are

surveyed under this title. Where the business of fishing and who I esal i ng ormanufacturi ng

is combined, that part of the business devoted to either of the latter two phases is in-,

eluded in the who I esal e and manufacturing survey and the part devoted to fi shi ng is included

in the shore o r vessel fisheries. If a wholesale business isconducted with no manufactur-

ing andthebusi ness i s so smal I that the ful I t i me of one man over the who I e year or season

is not required, it is then disregarded as a wholesale business. If commodit i es other than

fishery products are hand I ed, thepersons engaged, and salaries and wages paid, areprorated;

and only that part concerned with fishery products is included. If such a firm required

less than the ful I time of one man over the whole year or season and if it does not manu-

facture, it is not included in the canvass. Retail firms that manufacture, or whose

wholesale business exceeds the retail part, are included. Persons or firms engaged in the

motor trucking of fishery products are included as wholesalers if they are engaged in

wholesale buying and selling.

Buyers for a central firmarenot canvassed as who I esal e dealers unless they ship direct

to the firms customers from the buying point.

Fishermen or fishing concerns, except manufacturers, who do not buy fishery products are

not included under this heading except that oyster-shucking firms are included provided

shuckers are employed, irrespective of whether all or part of the oysters used are taken

from the firms' privately owned beds.

Manufacto ri ng concerns include those which prepare packaged fishery products; salted;

spiced; smoked; dried, or otherwise cured fishery products; canned fishery products; orfishery byproducts.

Fishermen who manufacture are surveyed to obtain the number of persons employed and the

volume and value of the products prepared.

In collecting statistics of manufacturing firms, Service representatives obtain data

on the production for each plant inthe areas surveyed. Such products are usually "final"

and in form fo r consumpt ion; however, theproducts may be "i ntermed i ate" and require further

processing before reaching the consumer markets. An outstanding example of an intermediate

product is green-salted groundfish, which almost invariably is further processed before

final marketing. In reviewing the stat i st i cs of manufactured products it should be observed

that intermediate products are not shown if they are prepared to the final stage in the

original plant. An exception to this rule, however, is in the case of the production of

mild-cured salmon, which, on account of its importance, is shown in its entirety, whether

further processed in the producing plant or not. In this connection it should also be

stated that several of the byproducts for which statistics are shown may be intermediate,

and the plants producing the final products are not su rveyed by th i s Service. Outstanding

among such products are marine-animal oils, scrap, and meal.

Statistics of persons engaged i n whol esal e and manufactu ri ng establishments are reported

in three groups; proprietors, salaried employees, andwage earners. Proprietors represent

those persons who devote their time to the conduct of the enterprise and receive their

compensation in the form of profits. Managers of branch houses are not classified as pro-

prietors. Salaried employees usually include those persons paid by the week or month,

while wage earners usually consist of those paid on a per diem or piecework basis. This,

however, is not true in all cases, since the distinction between these two groups depends

primarily upon the character of the work done rather than the unit of time employed for

calculating ratesofpay. In general, office emp loyees are cl assi f i ed as sal ari ed employees.

employees, including plant workmen, usually are classed as wage earners. Active officersof corporations are classified as salaried employees. Statistics of wage earners are shownin two forms; the average number employed during the operating season; and the averagenumber employed during the year (the monthly average for the year).

Transporting Trade. —Statistics are obtained on the number of the crew and number of

boats and vessels engaged in transporting fishery products from the fishing grounds to

port, or from porttoport. However, if a craft isengaged in catching fish at any time ofthe year it is included as a fishing craft rather than as a transporter.

Publication of Data.— Stat i st i cs of emp I oyment in the fisheries, craft and gear engaged,

catch and value of catch, and certain data on industries related to the fisheries aresummarized according to geographic division and published in bulletin form as soon as

possible after the compl et ion of each survey. Later the f igu res in mo re detail are included

in the annual reports of the Division.

Prior to 1939, data on catch by counties and operating units by counties were included

in this report. Although the statistics are still collected on this basis, as welJ as by

the waters in which the catches were made, it has not been possible since 1939 to release

this material in printed form due to insufficient printing funds. The data, however, are

on file inthe Washington office and are, inmost instances, tabulated for use in answering

specific requests. It is planned to resume publication of data on catch by counties and

operating units by counties when this becomes possible.

LOCAL AND SPECIAL SURVEYS

Landings at Certain Important United States Ports. — Stat i st i cs of the landings of aquaticproducts at Boston and Gloucester, Mass., and Portland, Maine, are obtained in a mannersimi I ar to that used in the general canvasses with the except ion that an agent is permanentlystationed at each of these ports. Their duties include the obtaining of figures daily on

the quantity of fish landed by each fishing vessel, the value of such fish landed, infor-mation concerning the date of departure and arrival of the vessel, as well as indicating,

as a resul t of personal interviews wi th the vessel captain, the grounds from which the fish

were taken and the gear used in their capture. These data are forwarded to the Washingtonoffice where compilations are made. Stat i st i cs of these landings are released monthly and

annually in bulletin form and detailed data are published in the annual reports of thisDivision. Products of Ameri can fisheries recei ved duty free at Boston and Gloucester, Mass.,

and Portland, Maine, from the t reaty coasts of Newfoundl and, Magdalen Islands, andLabrador,

have not been included inthe landings at these ports since 1938. Data on the landings at

Boston and Gloucester, Mass., have been collected annually since 1893, andthose for Port-

land, Maine, sinceJune 1915. Some dataareavailable for Boston andGloucester prior to 1893.

Landings at Neu Bedford, Mass.,. — Statistics on the landings at New Bedford, Mass.,

for 1943 were collected by the Service representatives at that port and forwarded to the

Washington office for tabulation. The data were released in an annual bulletin and are

included in this report. Stat i st i cs of the I and i ngs at New Bedford have been collected for

each of the years following 1937.

Statistics of the Landings of Fish at Seattle, Wash.,. — Data on the landings at this

port are co I I ected by the Service's representatives in that city. Landings are classified

as those made by United States fishing vessels and those received by Seattle wholesale

dealers. The landings credited to Un i ted States fishing vessels are made by vessels oper-

ating distinctly as primary fishing units, usually in the offshore fisheries, while those

credited as received by wholesale dealers are usually products of the shore fisheries

collected mainly from po i nts i n Puget Sound. They do not include fish received from Alaska

or Canada, orlandings made by the halibut fleet. Statistics of these landings at Seattle

are released monthly and annually In bulletin form and detailed data are published in the

annual reports of th i s Division. Statistics of the landings by fishing vessels at Seattle

have been collected since June 1915 and certain data on products received by Seattle whole-

sale dealers since December 1915.


Shad and Alewife fisheries. —Owing to the importance of the Hudson and Potomac Rivers

in the production of shad, surveys for statistics of the catch, value of the catch, and

operating units aremade annually. On the Potomac River similar statistics al so are obtai ned

for the alewife fishery. Much of the data required for these surveys are available from

the State fishery agencies.

Statistics of the shad and alewife fisheries are not published separately in bulletin

form, but a summary of the years activities is published in the annual reports of the

Division.

Statistics of the shad fishery of the Hudson River are available for 1896, 1897, 1898,

1901, 1904, 1910, and from 1915 to 1943, inclusive, whiledata for the shad fishery of the

Potomac River are available for 1896, 1901, 1904, 1909, 1915 and from 1919 to 1942, in-

clusive. Statistics of the alewife fishery of the Potomac River are available for 1896,

1909, 19 15, and from 19 19 to 1942, inclusive.

Pacific Halibut Fishery, — Statistics of the Pacific halibut fishery are obtained by

the Service's personnel in Seattle, aided by Service representatives in Alaska and the

International Fisheries Commission. The fleet cl assi fi cat ion has been arbitrarily applied

by including in the "Washington fleet" all United States and Al aska vessels that land more

than half of their catch in that State. All other United States and Alaska vessels of the

halibutfleet are included inthe"AI aska fleet". Monthly and annual statistical bulletins

are avai I abl e on th i s fishery, being published along wi th the stat i st i cs of the landings of

fishery products at Seattle, Wash., and detailed statistics are published in the annual

reports of the Division. Statistics of the landings of halibut at Pacific coast ports

have been collected since 1925.

Canned Fishery Products and Byproducts.— Beginning in 1921, the Service has made annual

surveys for statistics of the canned fishery products and byproducts industries of every

section. These are begun the first week in January of each year for statistics of the

production in the preceding year. The Service obtains by mail, so far as possible, the

production of canned fishery products or byproducts from each plant in the United States

engaged in this business. Where it is impossible to obtain reports by mail the report is

obtai ned by personal visit by the Service's agents. They obtain stat i st i cs of the production

and value of the production for each commodity by can sizes, case sizes, and trade classi-

fications. The value shown for canned products constitutes the gross amount received by

the packer at the production point, no deductions being made for commission or expenses.

Statistics of the canned fishery products and byproducts produced in Alaska are received

on the same statements obtained by the Alaska Division that include statistics of general

fishery operations. ,

Annual statistical bulletins are issued on this trade, and detailed statistics of the

output are published in the annual reports of the Division. In addition to the data

obtained on the output of these products annually since 1921, data also usually were

obtained prior to 1921 for the years the various sections were surveyed.

Packaged Fish Trade. — Statistics of the annual production and value of fish packaged

in the United States are obtained as a part of the survey for the statistics of the

canned fishery p roducts and byp roducts industries. These data are rel eased in bulletin form

annually and I ate r in mo re detai I ed and adj usted fo rm i n the annual reports of the Division.

Statistics of the production of packaged fish are available for 1926 and the years 1928

to 1943 i ncl usi ve.

Cold-Storage Holdings of Fish. — An arrangement has been made with the Department of

Agriculture whereby statistics of the cold-storage holdings of the various speci es of f i sh

and shellfish, by sections of theUnited States a re fu rn i shed to this Service monthly. Data

also are supp I i ed on the quant i ty of the various species of fish frozen and the holdings of

certain cu red fish. Bui I et ins showi ng these stat i st i cs are i ssued month I y as we I I as annual ly.

Detailed cold-storage statistics also are published in the annual Statistical Digests

issued by the Division. Statistics of cold-storage holdings of fishery products have been

PRACTICES AND TERMS217

published since 1917 and data on quantities of fish frozen, for the years from 1920 to1925, inclusive, and from 1928 to 1943, inclusive.

Sponge Market, Tarpon Springs. —A large proportion of the total output of sponges inFlorida is sold on the sponge exchange at Tarpon Springs. In viewofthis, theService hasobtained from a representative of the exchange annual stat i st i cs of the quantity and valueof the sponges, by variety classifications, handled through it annually. Stat i st i cs of thequantity of sponges marketed by the exchange are published in bulletin form, and a summaryof the year's activities is published in the annual reports of the Division. Statisticsof the transactions on the sponge exchange are avai I ab I e for 1913, 1914, and for the yearsfrom 19 17 to 1943, inclusive.

Foreign Fishery Trade . —Stat i st i cs of the foreign fishery trade are obtained fromcompilations made by the Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce. Statistics of allknown fishery products imported o r expo rted have been assembled in one table and publishedannually in the reports of the Division in recent years. For earlier years they areavailable in the reports of the Bureau of the Census, Bureau of Foreign and DomesticCommerce, the Bureau of Statistics, the Department of Commerce and Labor, or the TreasuryDepartment.

PRACTICES AND TERMS

Certain practices and terms of importance used in the compilation of fishery statisticsare explained below.

Days Absent. — In computing "days absent " fo r vesse I s landing fares at the various ports,the day of arrival but not the day of departu re are included; thus a vessel leaving port onthe 8th of the month and returning on the 15th of the month will fcre shown as being absent7 days.

Operating Units. —Ope rat ing units as referred to in this document i ncl ude persons engagedin the fisheries, and craft and gear employed in the fisheries.

Vessel. — The term "vessel" refers to a craft having, a capacity of 5 net tons or more.

Boat. — The term "boat" refers to a craft having a capacity of less than 5 net tons.

Incidental Catch. — The term "incidental catch" refers to the catch of certain speciesby a type of gear which ordinarily does not capture such species.

Percentages. — Percentages are usually shown as whole numbers. Fractions of percentsare dropped i f I ess than f i ve-tenths, and the percentage is raised to the next higher integer

if the fraction is greater than five-tenths. If the fraction is exactly five-tenths, theinteger is raised or lowered to make it an even number.

Converting. —Many of the figures shown inthe statistical tabl es pub I i shed herewith have

been converted to thousands of pounds or dollars. In mak i ng these conve rs i ons the largest

number from which a group of items is computed is raised or lowered to the nearest thousands

place. The individual items are adjusted to conform to the total thus obtained.

Confidential Data. — The statistical data collected by the Division are confidential and

are not released except in published form or upon approval of the Washington office. Sta-

tist icsofproduction ofwholesale and manufactu ring f i rms arepublished only for commod i t i es

or geographical areas whe re t he p roduct i on of three ormore concerns may be grouped. Every

effort is made to publish only those figures which will not reveal individual enterprise.

CONVERSION FACTORSIt is the policyofthe Se rv i ce to show detailed catch figures of all products in pounds,

for the sake of un i formi ty and for pu rposes of compari son. This presents little difficulty

in the case of fish since in very rare instances are fish reported in units of measure other

than pounds. For shellfish, however, the units of measure may be bushels, sacks, barrels,

218STATISTICAL SURVEY PROCEDURE

thousands of shellfish, gal I ons of meats, etc. These many units make standardization dif-

ficult, and when combined with the wide variation in the requirements or definitions of

some of these units in the various States the problem becomes even more complex.

All bivalve mollusks are reported in pounds of meats in the detailed catch tables

presented in this report. In addition, there are included supplementary tables for most

of the sections, which give data on the production in bushels. These supplementary tables

also give the production of certain other shellfish, such as crabs, in number.

Oysters. —Probably the greatest problem in the presentation of fishery statistics in

uniform uni.ts of measure is in the case of oysters. Usually the production of oysters on

the Atlantic and Gulf coasts is reported to Service personnel in bushels; and prior to the

data obtained for the year 1930 conversion from bushel s to pounds of meats was effected on

the basis of a uniform yield of 7 pounds of meats to the bushel. However, investigations

have shown considerable variation from this figure. There follows a table which gives the

measures used for oysters in the various States and the average yields per bushel. The

statistical tables in this report are based on these average yields.
