Good summer for seafood fanciers
CHICAGO reports Earl Swicord, president of the National Fisheries Institute, says the 1980 fishing season opens with abundant supplies and broad appeal for most seafood varieties in retail and restaurant markets. He notes wholesale prices for large shrimp, halibut, salmon, and king crab are well below a year ago, while cod, whiting, and rockfish prices are about the same due to inflation. Swicord expects the summer harvest to be strong.
