38 SALMON FISHERIES OF ALASKA. 



fisheries exist for this species alone in various localities. It is put up in pickle and 

 sold in San Francisco. The demand there, however, is limited. 



No diminution of the supply of this trout has been observed. There is great 

 destruction of this fish at Karluk in the seining for Red Salmon, where thousands of 

 Dolly Vardens are taken and left lying unused on the beach. Something should be 

 done to prevent this waste of good fish. Bears destroy a great many of these trout 

 and water birds consume immense numbers of the young. At sea sharks, porpoises, 

 seals, and sea-lions prey extensively upon the adults.
