Work and Findings

at Halibut

Commission Make Interesting
Subject For Address to Gyros

 

Life History

Dealing with the lite history of
the fish, Mr. Freeman informed his
listeners that the halibut was the
largest of the flounder group of
fishes. Occasionally they reached a
weight of over 400 pounds but the
average was between 15 and 20
pounds. Although living on the bot-
tom of the ocean, the halibut was
an active swimmer. The distribution
of halibut was not uniform for the
fish seemed to favor certain banks
and even certain localities on these
banks. The older fish were found in
deeper waters, these large fish col-
lecting in dense schools in the fall
to lay their eggs. Halibut eggs were
the largest of the pelagic ova, aver-
aging about 3! millimeters in dia-
meter. The eggs floated freely in
the water and were distributed be-
tween the bottom and the top. As
the spawn developed, it was car-
ried far and wide by the ocean cur-

rents. The eggs developed slowly,
becoming translucent larvae with
two eyes on two sides. The eggs re-
quired perhaps two or three weeks
for hatching and it might be two

or three months before they began
to settle on the bottom

The speaker described how one
of the halibut’s eyes grew in a
strange fashion towards the other
until eventually the flat fish lay on
its cide, the two eyes looking up-
ward from the colored right side
which contrasted the white
blind side

The halibut was next recognized
as young fish in the
bights of Alaska. As they grew
staved more or less at home, shift
ing to schools of their
They were first taken the fish-
ermen at the age of five years when
the smallest weighed two or three
pounds. The halibut continued
growing at a variable rate, accord-
ing to the bank upon whick «< was
found.

Mr. Freeman ex-
plained, were determined by annual
changes in growth as recorded in
the bones, particularly in the oto-
lith or ear-stone in the head which
had rings much like those of a tree.
From these ear-stones it was

learned that the young fish trebled |

its weight in three years to become
a six-pound fish and then doubled
its weight in the next three years
to become a 12-pound fish. It con-
tinued to increase in length at a
continually slower rate until at the
enc of 35 vears it reached a weight
of from 150 to 200 pounds.

twelfth year and migrated for that
purpose, unlike the stay-at-home
immature fish. The speaker pointed
out that the baby or five-pound
halibut was an immature fish wnich
had not spawned as was also the
11-pound or medium fis,
Tagging Operations

Before concluding, Mr. Freeman
alluded briefly to the tagging op-
erations which had been carried on
by the Commission. Thousands of
halibut had been caught and re-
leased with nymbered tags at-
tached and had been later recov-

ered from the fishermen through |

the offering of rewards. Returns
from these tagging experiments
had made it possible to determine
the migrations of the halibut. It
had been learned, result of
tagging, that the
areas separated by Cape Spencer
were practically independent. Only
five percent of recoveries from wes-
orn tagging were re-taken south of
Cape Spencer while but one fish
*‘ageed in the southern area had
been re-taken in the western. Hali-
but tagged in areas south of Cape
Spencer showed very slight migra-
averaging 22 miles. Those
north and west of Cape
showed more extensive
migration, averaging 209 miles.
Therefore, within the southern
banks it was ascertained that exist-
ing stocks were of immature fish,
largely non-migratory. On the
other hand, the mature fish of the
western banks migrated freely and
widely. On the basis of these mi-
erations. the Commission had been
ible to promulgate regulations for
the conservation of the fishery
Much more tagging would have
to be done, Mr. Freeman declared,
so that. among other problems, it
might be determined whether or
not the southern mature fish were
migratory, where western imma-
ture fish were as stationary as those
in southern waters and the prob-
lems of the fish to the far west-
ward including the Bering Sea.
The luncheon was presided over
by President William Cruickshank
who heartily thanked Mr. Freeman
for his interesting address. Guests
at the luncheon included R. B.
Greggor, Dr. H. Q. Johnsen, Dr. R.
G. Large, Daniel Burrows, Charles
Fyfe, John R. Mitchell, James Doug-
las, Otto C, Young and Ellis Morris.

There were many hectic moments |
n the Senior League basketball |
fixture last night between Kaien
Hardware and the Grotto. From
start to finish, it was anybody's
game. The Kaiens, although ex-
tremely light, fought hard and al- |
most unwillingly were pressed to
give up inch by inch to the heayy
charging Grotto. The second half
had many fast and fascinating
plays which kept the fans on their
toes yelling. The score was tied
again and again but the tobaccon-
ists seemed to the extra
punch at the end and found them-
selves on the top end of a 35-32
score. However, it might have been |
a different story if the Kaiens had
not yanked Scott he was}
hitting his strine. But it is all in
the game so Grotto is entitled to all
the credit for winning a fast
Dy engagement. Fa like

Intermediate League
The first half of the Interme-

and, with the ease of champions,
the Merchants kept the Warriors at
bay 14-1. In the second half things
nicked up a little and the Warriors, |
living up to their name, put a little
fight into the game. They played
much better in the second half but
