Menhaden Boats
Have Good Luck
Boats Loaded Up Monday
And Were Back Inside Be
fore Mid-Morning; Visit
ing Boats Get Fish
~~ i
Boats of the Brunswick Naviga
tion Company had good fishing
Monday when they went out at
the usual time and returned to
the factory with loads by mid
morning. As a matter of fact, the
first boat was back at 9:30 o'clock
with 350,000 fish in her hold, i
Thereafter the other boats came i
in at half hour intervals, each I
bringing upwards of 300,000 fish. I
It would have been possible for
most of the boats to have un
loaded gone ovit and brought in
another load before night. How
ever, until all of the additions
now being made at the factory are
in working order it is said to
be impossible to handle more than
one catch per boat, per day.
The early return of the loaded
boats is remarkable through the
fact that they do not leave their
docks here until daylight. To get
four or five miles outside, load
up and return by 9:30 is fast
work.
Several boats of the Potter
factory at Morehead City working
here for the past few weeks are
also loading up in short order
and carrying their catches to
their home factory. Except for
the short time they spend unload
