Abstract:
The first menhaden factory was built on Harkers Island in 1865. Since 1910, commercial fishermen have harvested around 160 millions pounds of menhaden annually. The industry peaked in the 1940s and 1950s, but menhaden fishing still accounts for half the total of domestic fish caught annually in the state.
