Erie Fishing Industry Paralyzed by Strike and Poor Catches
The Erie fishing industry is paralyzed as boats sit idle ashore and tugs docked with fires drawn. Catch rates have been low, rarely exceeding 140 pounds, with two ships bringing in only 95 pounds. About 85 fish dressers seek 76 cents an hour since July 1, prompting companies to offer a 65 cent wage cut. Officials foresee disruption if strike persists, as boats operate at a loss and cannot endure a total halt.
