98 FISH AND GAME COMMISSION 



REPORT OF SARDINE PLANTS, SEASON 1935-36 



The season opened in Monterey and northern California on August 

 1st and small deliveries for canning purposes were made throughout 

 the month. Permits for use of fish by a reduction process were not 

 issued until September 1st, when rather heavy fishing was started. In 

 southern California the season opened on November 1st and permits 

 for use of fish by a reduction process were available on the same date. 

 However, deliveries were light until the latter part of the month. Per- 

 mits to take fish for use by a reduction process were not issued in 

 Monterey and northern California after January 31st and in southern 

 California after March 15th. 



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 the floating reduction ships Lake Miraf,ores, Lansing, 

 Santa Inez and Brookdale operated off the coast of California outside 

 the jurisdiction of the state, and it is estimated that the four floating 

 plants took 158,754 tons of sardines. This amount added to the tonnage 

 taken by the shore plants makes a total of 565,920 tons of sardines taken 

 off the coast of California during the season.
