Wireless gear to help Canadian fisheries scouts

The Associated Press reports Halifax April 28 that a fisheries cruiser will scout the Canadian coast this season equipped with wireless gear. When it locates schools of mackerel and other food fish, the information will be relayed to coast stations and then to fishing boats. Large vessels receive the data at sea. The program follows wartime efforts to promote fish as a food source and expand the industry with steam trawlers and many small boats. Monthly landings include over 600,000 pounds of flat fish and cod, shipped east to Winnipeg. Inland lakes and Saskatchewan also show strong catches, with more than 10,000,000 pounds of white fish annually.
