The Poiier seine, a new type of net used in daytime airplane fishing, is highly efFicient for catching anchovies, sardines and /acfc mocfcere/. Wings of the net are liieing hauled over the stern with vertical power gurdies. For years the anchovy has been of importance in the commercial and bait fisheries of California. From 1916 to 1946 most of the catch was used for bait purposes— for live bait in the Southern California sport fishery, for salted dead bait in both the sport fishery and in the albacore fishery, and for use as ground chum by the Pacific mackerel scoop fishermen. During the period from 1916 to 1946 only small amounts of anchovies were used for food and for re- duction. In 1921 teeth were put into a law prohibiting the use of anchovies for reduction purposes. It was felt that such protection was needed to safeguard the stocks of this species, both because of its importance commercially and because of its importance as a forage fish for sport and commercially important predatory species. Experimental Packs Made From 1946 on, with the advent of the drastic de- crease in sizes of the sardine and Pacific mackerel stocks along the Pacific Coast, there arose the immedi- ate need for packs of other species to supply domestic and foreign markets. Inasmuch as anchovy stocks ap- peared large enough and could be taken with current sardine fishing methods many experimental packs were made. They met with serious domestic sales resistance but the anchovy "sardine style" pack in tomato sauce met with favorable response in several Asiatic and South American countries. The industry then centered its activities in processing styles that would sell readily on the export market. Coincident with the development of anchovy can- ning, the use of fishery products for pet foods ex- panded rapi
