CHIGNIK TO RESURRECTION BAY SALMON STATISTICS 
667 
This is due chiefly to our inclusion of packs made by canneries at Larsen and Uyak 
Bays, which were not included in the figures of Gilbert and Rich. In 1896 Moser 
estimated the catch on the basis of 12 fish per case, but in this report 14 has been used 
as being much more nearly correct for Karluk red salmon. Bureau figures checked 
closely with those of Gilbert and Rich for the years 1904 to 1924.

Beginning in 1924, with the introduction of traps on the northwest coast of 
Kodiak Island, our figures do not agree with those published by Gilbert and Rich, 
and by Bower, 12 but represent catches made only in the Karluk district, which lies 
entirely between Cape Karluk and Cape Uyak. (See Table 15.) Previously pub- 
lished reports of the commercial catch of Karluk salmon from 1924 to 1927 include 
reds caught several miles north of Karluk and differ from our data in the following 
particulars: In 1924 the catch was reported as 890,752, or approximately 20 per cent 
more than our total for that year; in 1925 it was given as 1,317,742, or nearly 16 per 
cent above the total compiled by the authors; in 1926 it was 2,131,616, or about 17 
per cent in excess of figures for the same year; in 1927 it was 600,778, or approximately 
a Alaska Fishery and Fur-seal Industries in 1924, by Ward T. Bower. Appendix IV, Report, United States Commissioner of 
Fisheries for 1925, p. 114. Appendix III, Report, United States Commissioner of Fisheries for 1926, p. 100. Appendix IV, Report,
