A Good Haul
, After a period of light fish ■ supplies at Westport, there . was a bonanza on Monday 1 and yesterday when a New ; Plymouth trawler disposed - cheaply of a big catch on the " Westport wharf. The trawler, on a cruise along the West ! Coast, put in to Westport on 1 Sunday morning after encoun- ’ tering bad weather. On Mon- - day morning, it tried out the ’ local fishing ground and - struck it lucky 400 yards from c the Westport bar, getting a i- great haul of snapper, tara--0 kihi, John Dory, and other t fish. The visitors disposed of ► their catch at prices 125 per cent lower than those paid! t| locally—and even gave a loti eaway.—(F.O.O.R.) I
