Title: Fish Bulletin 153. The California Marine Fish Catch For 1969
Abstract: Author(s): Pinkas, Leo | Abstract: The tables in this bulletin summarize the statistics of the various fishery operations in California during 1969. Five types of activity are being reported this year: landings of commercial fishermen in California; imports of tuna from other states or foreign countries destined for processing in California; sport catches of the partyboat fleet; landings of inshore species used for bait; and catches of boats supplying live bait for sportfishing. In addition, Appendix A shows the species composition of the salmon catch for 1969.The statistics presented in this publication do not encompass all of the fishing activities in the State since not all of these activities are reported. For example: sportfishing from private boats or from shore is not reported, nor is the importation of fish for use in a fresh state. Department biologists do sample some facets of the sportfishery, but since this is part of specific studies, most of the results are not reported here.The Department annually publishes a circular which enumerates some of the fishery products produced from the catch. The figures are contained in circular No. 44, Statistical Report of Fresh, Canned, Cured and Manufactured Fishery Products for 1969 (Carlisle, 1970).
