RECORDED: [location unknown], 1976-01-16 SUMMARY: Art Moore started fishing in 1930. Harry Duff started fishing in 1934. Ed Peterson started fishing in 1936. The size of the boats have not changed much and there are still one man boats. The style of the boat has changed a little. Linen nets were used in Art Moore's time. Cotton nets were only used in emergencies. Linen nets were strong, made from Irish linen and were expensive. Net size and depth regulations are discusses. Art Moore first began to fish in the Middle Arm of the Fraser River in a "skiff" powered by hand. Most boats were originally made of wood. Harry Duff relates how electronics have changed fishing and navigation. Radio telephone, echo sounder, radar, automatic pilot, and sonar have all appeared since they started fishing in the 1930s. Art Moore has noticed no change in the quality of the salmon since 1930. The size of the salmon has decreased over the years, which Art Moore attributes to the numbers of fish spawning and the amount of feed available. Harry Duff says he enjoyed fishing during the War because he had more time to fish and the fish weren't quite so depleted. They discuss Japanese fishermen and their internment during the War. Art Moore states that pollution on the Fraser has become dangerous to the fishing industry: "Not only do you get indecency to the fish but to your own self".;
