Mt 30 de Delaware Takes 400 Pounds Of Snapper in Tuesday Haulj ?V exploratory Fiah and Wild ttfe *e*w. Delaware, worked be tween C?pt Lookout and Hatter.is Tuesday and caught 400 pounds of tn^per in trawl The Delaware, a 140-foot Fish Mid Wildlife vessel, tied up at the , Morehead City, yester ade port to deliver to the Wildlife laboratory. Pi v?r> Island, white ahad and men haden taken while working be tween 40 and 50 fathom* offshore The white ahad are the delect able food fish which move closer inshore as the weather warms. I Ante Menhaden The menbaden were good size and fat Ernest J. Medico, fishery methods and equipment specialist, who is in charge of the Delaware's work here, said that it is difficult to aay whether the menhaden were taken in the trawl as it was on the bottom, in midwatcr, or near the surface as the trawl was hauled in. The net being used is 4>6inch mesh Mr. Medico pointed out that with a mesh that size it is possible that a lot of fisb escape So the number of menbaden in the catch would rot' necessarily indicate "how many" are out there. Mr. Medico remarked. "We have made somewhat of a discovery as to snapper." During the first half of the Dela ware's work off this coast last week, yellow-eye snapper, red snapper, flounder and porgies were taken in deep water trawl opera tions. The Delaware is concentrating during the remainder of its visit' here on the snapper fishery. On Tuesday, Uoyd Reed, who has been fishing successfully for snapper for more than a year with handline rig, was getting no bites. Makes Big Caleb The Delaware contacted him, gave him a bearing on where they had taken snapper in the trawl and Mr. Reed started fishing that area. He caught 2,500 pounds, which meant a profit for him tbat day instead of a loss. Stewart Springer, chief of the ! branch of exploratory fishing of j the Fisb and Wildlife Service, said that the snapper population seem ed well spread over the area off ' Cape Lookout at 40 to 50 fathoms and the size of them varies, indi cating that the snappers are there all year around. In a trawling operation different from the snapper operation, 45 flounder were taken in a one-hour drag. Total weight of the catch exceeded 90 pounds. Mr. Medico said the Delaware's work will not mean that he can state specifically where the fish are. "Pish have tails, you know. Just because we found them in one place one day does not say they will be there tomorrow,'' he remarked. The Delaware is using the otter trawl with rollers. No midwater fishing is being done. In other words, no attempt is being made ! to take fish which swim in the waters between the bottom and the surface. Working Today The Delaware is working today southwest of here about 60 miles and will proceed southward along the coast in depths from 20 to 100 fathoms. It may go into Charles ton, S. C., over the weekend. The ship ean work in water up to 700 fathoms. It draws 14.6 feet and is 303 gross tons. "To fish properly" the waters the Delaware has been working, a commercial fisherman vapid need a medium trawler 80 to 85 feet long, Mr. Medico commented. The Delaware made no catches Wednesday. It was working south- 1 west of Beaufort inlet in 11 to 17 | fathoms. The ship left Norfolk March 2 and is due back at Boston, its home port. March 21. Mr. Medico estimated that it has seven to eight days of fishing left on its Caro linas trip. To Give Report A report on its work will be ! issued by the Fish and Wildlife Service the early part of April. Aboard the vessel, in addition to Mr. Medico, are the captain, Den nis Hayes; Richard Kipoen, chief, engineer; Louis Knickle, second assistant engineer; John McKay, third assistant; John MacCillivray, steward and cook; John Walsh, mate, and the following deck hands: William Murphy, Salvatore Chereschimo, George Lampro, Charles Martin and Patrick Kelly. Mr. Medico, a former commer cial fisherman himself, said that most of the men aboard at one time fished commercially. In Protective Custody Confised to the county jail is Raymond Hyatt, who was taken into custody by Sheriff Hugh Sal ter Sunday when he allegedly tried to slash his throat at a home in Morehead City. A. H. James, clerk of superior court, said Wed nesday that a doctor's report indi cates that Hyatt is afflicted with epilepsy and is not mentally de ranged, as was thought at ftrst.
