BULLETIN OP THE BUREAU OF FISHERIES 
COHOES 
The distribution of the cohoes tagged at Ruins Point was very much the same 
as that of the reds, except that a much larger percentage was taken along the west 
shore of Prince of Wales Island and in the adjacent islands. Twenty-four (nearly 
11 per cent) of the recaptures were reported from this locality. Eight fish were 
taken in Chatham Strait and one on the west coast of Baranof Island, in Whale 
Bay. With the exception of these two localities, all of the other returns came from 
Sumner and Clarence Straits and the adjacent waters, with a few from British Co- 
lumbia. Table 12 shows the results of this experiment.
