...yielding 27 million Ibs. of fish, including mackerel, anchovies and bonita, in 1967. Since the spill, the Fisherman's Cooperative Association of San Pedro has not taken a fish out of the channel.

Frenzied as the present season is, next year promises to be even wilder. The-state of Michigan, encouraged by its success with cohos, stocked its streams with 800,000 Chinook, or king, salmon fingerlings last year. Next fall the Chinooks, which weigh up to 60 Ibs., will start running. Fishermen can hardly wait...
