She wes vonsel, Howay, which docked fori as "Never seen it so wicked" "Just one gale after another" "Worst winter in 40 years." Such remarks are frequent among the old-tlmern. - But we talked to one oid.ster, Pete Lelghton. born in Metla-katla over 60 years ago, pnd lie says the winter of. 1917 was worse. He says he recalls the then a frcrjuent visitor to Rupert. After the war, the fisheries ft. L,U,JU 11 -- - year mainly because of several department recommissioned her ?nd under command of Capt. Ernshaw, was one of the first boats to spot tuna in B.C. offshore waters. MATTER OF TIME And since the 1949 tuna run oif the ChaiiotUii, the Howay supplies here recently. A LOT SIFKF.RKD "I've never seen it so consistently rough on the coast as this fall. Whiie we've come through all the storms without damage. I know a lot of fishermen didn't. Capt. Ernshaw said he had heard of several vessels which had lost tlieir propellers ui other , gear on the fishing grounds, bucking high tides and gale-force winds. "But we came into port with both our wheels intact, although it was quite dusty out there," said the veteran captain, as the Howay took on fuel and grub rum m i y rMi)- has scouted for the illusive blue- j shipwrecks, anci one in particular whinh was survived only by one of three in the crew and he was a man of 60 years 8nd rheumatic at that. What's more, said Leighton, the old man stayed alive for over a week on an isolated and almost barren island of the Tree Knob group where the boat was smashed on the rocks. "The storms were so fierce the village boats couldn't leave to look for the lost boat.

Ernshaw says he is sure that the tuna come north every year. "It's just a matter of finding them like gold." ( But when the Howay finds tuna (she ran into a small school last summer) all 15 of her crew get into the act as they start fishing with hand-lines. Best trolling speed to catch tuna is seven knots, says the captain, "but that's too fast for us to land them. So we usually troll at six knots. The pull then i? not too heavy and the tuna stay on the hooks. "At first, it's a lot of fun, catching these hafd hitting fish, but after handlinir.g a dozen or so into the boat, the 'sport' end of fishing ceases and work really begins." Capt. Ernshaw has hopes that scientific investigations into habits in northern waters will come up wi h an answer that may bring another scasonul source of revenue to B.C.
