- April 29 (contd [continued]) [1942] Phil Martin says he heard flocks
were sighted at 4 P.M.
H. Pegler heard that they were seen
as early at 2:30 P.M.
Lost group observed by myself at
6:15 about.
May 11 [1942] A specimen of "King of the Salmon" [Trachipterus altivelis]
was caught today at Gonzales bay
at 12:30 P.M. by Mr. James
Zwinger of 1930 Crescent Rd.
Mr. Z. was collecting firewood and
noticed this large fish in shallow
water still moving around, trying
to swim on its side. He waded in
hooked stick in gills + dragged it ashore
then hit it on head. Head subsequently
was badly mutilated + severed from
body.
Accompanied by Paul Parizeau I
called at the house of Mr. Stott,
on Crescent Rd to see the fish about
4 P.M.
Brought specimen to museum, took pictures
in Kodachrome, also black + white by [Clarence] Ferris.
Also Times [Victoria Times Colonist?] photographer.
Mrs. Sweeney + I patched up carcass
+ made plaster mold. Several parasitic
worms which emerged from the vent were
preserved.
