BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF FISHERIES 
Other localities have little importance, although fair catches of chums and pinks 
were made in some years at Fish Bay and Hooniah Sound. Approximately half of 
the salmon taken in this district were unallocated. These totals were increased 
slightly by the inclusion of small catches from Broad Island, Frick Cove, and Louise 
Cove in 1925; from “Hydens Bay” (an unknown locality) in 1924; from Bear Bay 
in 1919; and from Fish Cove in 1922. It was also necessary to include parts of 
certain catches that had been grouped by the canning companies under a general 
locality name such as “Icy, Chatham, and Peril Straits and Bays.” The method 
used in the division of such catches was explained in the review of the data for Icy 
Strait and other districts similarly affected and need not be repeated here. It is 
also probable that king and coho salmon were taken in Peril Strait by lines, but all 
such catches were hopelessly mixed with catches in other districts so that a division 
of the fish is now an impracticable undertaking. These catches were included, 
therefore, in the Chatham Strait data.
