STUDY OF SALMON
DEPARTMENT’S ACTIVITIES
Dominion Special Service.
Christchurch, February 8.
In order to make a study of the conditions of the salmon fishing in the Waimakariri River, the Marine Department has this year taken over one of the four licenses issued for the netting of the fish at the mouth of the river. Mr. C. L. Ayson, assistant to the Chief Inspector of Fisheries, is in Christchurch in charge of operations. Netting will be carried out through the season in order that scales measurements and other particulars about quinnat salmon may be obtained for the Department. Mr. Ayson is sanguine that the industry may develop into something very’ important. He will go north tomorrow to investigate the position in the Hurunui and Waiau Rivers.
