94 FISH AND GAME COMMISSION 



REPORT OF SARDINE PLANTS, SEASON 1934-35 



The season opened in Monterey and northern California on August 

 1st. However, as the price for sardines was not agreed on until August 

 11th no fish were brought in until August 13th (except a few tons received 

 by one plant at Monterey from its own boats which started delivering 

 on August 7th) . In the San Pedro district the season opened on November 

 1st and fish were received on the opening day. 



This report covers operations of shore plants only, and does not 

 include sardines taken for fresh fish markets, bait, or quarter oil pack. 

 During the season three floating reduction plants operated off the Cali- 

 fornia coast, outside the jurisdiction of the State, and it is estimated 

 that the floating plants took 128,190 tons of sardines. This amount 

 added to the tonnage taken by shore plants makes a total of 608,936 tons 

 of sardines taken off the coast of California during the season.
