CATCH OP SALMON IN BRISTOL BAY WATERS. 



Request has been received from commercial fishery interests for a 

 compilation of the catch of salmon in the important Bristol Bay 

 region of Alaska. Broadly speaking, about one-third of the yield of 

 salmon from Alaskan waters comes from this region. The following 

 table shows the catches made in the more important waters fished in 

 the Bristol Bay district in the period of five years from 1913 to 1917.
