Display Tags
C. Gehrmann Holland, assistant
fisheries commissioner, yesterday
reminded commercial fishermen
that their license tags for boats
must be displayed and net license
receipts must be aboard the boat.
Beginning Monday- fishermen
who do not comply with those reg
ula'ions will be liable to prose
cution. Commissioner Holland said
tags should be put on the side of
the cabine. engine box or on the
bow.
The hard crab season closed
Tuesday. The fisheries officer
said the soft crab is e.-.pec'M to be
at its peak in a couple weeks. It
has been somewhat late this spring
because of cold spells.
The crab won't turn his hard coat
loose until he's sure he won't get
chilled, explained Commissioner
Holland.
Shrimping
(Continued from Page 1)
ler or other vessel owned by a non
resident, will be liable to arrest.
All shrimp so taken will be confis
cated by the assistant state fisher
ies commissioner and sold by him.
Proceeds will go into the state's
commercial fisheries fund.
Must Roy Licenses
Non-recent shrimpers may,
Douglas said, have the same
shrimping privileges as those per
mitted to North Carolina shrimpers
if they comply with state laws by
paying the usual license fees and
taxes imposed on residents by the
regulations and the laws for the
conduct of commercial fishing.
Director Douglas pointed out that
shrimping privileges in North Car
olina's inland commercial fishing
waters shall not be given a non-res
ident shrimper if the state of which
he is a resident prohibits North
Carolina shrimpers from operating
in the inland maters of that state.
The CfcD head said the inland
commercial fishing waters of North
Carolina are those sounds which
are separated from the Atlantic
Oeean by bodies of land to which
access from the Atlantic Ocean is
possible only through inlets or
channels', and all rivers emptying
directly into the Atlantic Ocean up
to the present commercial fishing
line. Inland waters begin at the
mouth or bar of such river.
Bicycles will be inspected at the
Morehead City School at S:1E laJs
