They Let The Big Ones Go!

(From Page 1)

"These guys (biologists! don’t think anything of hboking a large shark, bringing it alongside the boat, and letting it go," he said. After only three days of fishing, they had already cut seven trophy winners loose, Cpt. Garrison noted. IT WASN’T UNTIL Wednesday, the third day of fishing, that the first two tigers meeting the requirements were hooked. They both measured 6 feet and weighed in the vjfcinity of 120 pounds. By the end of the^eek, three more had been caught. ) According toparrison, there is an art to catching sharks on a rod and reel without injuring them. The hook has to be set ks

soon as the fish bite.

“THEY HAVE TO BE hooked quick, and not deep,” he said. "They won't last long if they’re hooked in the belly." Jack Schneider, curator of exhibits at Mystic Aquarium, echoed Mr. Garrison’s remarks, adding that the captur^ an^/

removal of a shark from its normal environment is a traumatic experience for

the crqature.

"There are two critical periods in the process,” he explained. "The first is when the fish is caught and removed to a holding tank. The other is when it is transported by truck to the aquarium and finally introduced to its new environment." CAPTURING SHARKS for exhibit purposes has become a major enteprise in the last few years. Garrison, who has been a shark fisherman for some 20 years, began taking scientists on fishing expeditions 10 years ago when he sailed with representatives from the New York City Sea Aquarium. He also annually takes members of the American Littoral Society on fishing trips. This organization is interested in the migratory habits of fishes. Although he enjoys the thallenge and thrill of regular shark fishing, Yhe captain contends that capturing sharks and bringing them back alive is even more exciting.

EASY DOES IT. Cpt. Bill Garrison left, and Al Clifton of the Niagara Falls Sea Aquarium slide a small bar shark into a holding tank in Ixmer Township. This shark, along with the sand tigers, remain here until transported via truck to Uu tr new manmade home.
