Fisheries
have
Indicated
that
this
season's
run
of
five-year
sockeye
salmon
to
the
Quashela
Creek
spawning
grounds
In
the
Smith's
Inlet
area
of
British
Columbia
was
relatively
small,
and
thereby
hangs
a
tale
a
tale
of
the
serious
consequences
which
illegal
fishing
may
have
upon
future
6tock(of
flsjj.
Here's
jth.e
story4,giv4
en
in
some
detail
because
of
Its
im-i
portance
in
pointing
a
moral:
The
life
cycle,
of
njest
sockeye
is
four
years
but
an
Important
proportion
of
the
fish
are
five-year
salmon
whose
return
to
the
spawning
beds
to
reproduce
their
kind
ls,made
In
their
fifth
year!
Quashela
Creek
and
its
expansions
made
up
the
sockeye
spawning
grounds
QfSmjUis
Jntet
and
in
1926
the
progeny
of
the
1921
run
of
five-year
fish
were
making
their
way
thither
to
deposit
and
fertilize
their
eggs.
Fishing
Is
forbidden
in
Quashela
Creek
but,
through
unfortunate
mischance,
some
transient
fishermen
who
went
into
the
Smiths
Inlet
area
In
1926
found
and
seized
an
opportunity
to
violate
the
prohibition
and
cap
'.uied
a
considerable
quantity
of
al
non
in
the
Quashela
waters.
What
this
meant,
of
course,
was
hat
many
parent
fish,
whose
escapement
was
contemplated
under
the
fishery
regulations,
did
not
get
the
spawning
beds,
the
beds
were
nadequatcly
seeded,
and
the
num-er
of
sockeye
hatched
out
a
few
nonths
later
was
reduced.
Came
1931.
Their
life
cycle
near-ng
completion,
the
five-year
sockeye
which
had
begun
their
existence
n
Quashela
Creek
turned
there
again
to
spawn.
But
there
weren't
so
many
of
them
as
there
would
have
been
had
the
illegal
fishing
not
occurred
In
1926.-Because
fish
were
taken
il
legally
five
years
ago,
the
run
of
1931
was
cut
down
and
Uicre
were
fewer
fish
to
deposit
eggs
from
which
future
runs
will
come.
Put
It
another
way,
breach
of
the
regulations
by
a
few
men
in
1926
has
had
the
effect
of
lessening
in
that
particular
region,
the
size
of
jthe
run
of
five-year
sockeye
upon
which
the
salmon
fishermen
must
I
depend
for
part
of
their
livelihood,
i
In
course
of
time,
careful
conserva-jtion
efforts
by
the
Department
of
Fisheries
may
ibuild
up
the
run
again
but,
meanwhile,
the
fishery
suffers.
The
incident
vis
worthy
of
by
all
clashes
of
fishermen
all
over
the
country
anglers
and
commercial
fishermen
alike.
If
suf
ficient
parent
fish
do
not
get
to
the
spawning
grounds,
there'll
be
fewer
fish
of
the
next
generation
to
catch,
whether
game
fish,
or
commercial
fish.
That
Is
certain
enough,
and
what
has
happened
in
regard
to
the
five-year
sockeye
In
Smiths
Inelt
gives
the
point
sharp
emphasis.
The
fisheries
regulations
framed
by
the
Dominion
authorities
for
observance
In
the
different
provinces
have
as
a
cardinal
pur
pose
the
adequate
conservation
of
fishery
resources.
They
are
based
on
experience
and
on
study
by
scientists
and
expert
observers.
The
man
who
disregards
them
may
enlarge
his
catch
today,
and
"get
away
with
It'
'if
he
manages
to
escape
detection,
but
he
will
find
fewer
fish
to
catch
In
