Treating women and competitors with equal contempt, Garraway charms and abandons such lovelies as Laura Reed (Evelyn Ankers) and Jane Koster (Adrian Booth). Having persuaded Laura to put up money for his fish cannery, Garraway drops her like a bad habit and begins pursuing Jane, so that she'll recruit her Indian friends to do some off-season salmon fishing. Jane's brother Pete (Francis McDonald) figures out long before anyone else does that Garraway is a no-good, and he sets the wheels in motion for the villain's ultimate downfall.

| User ReviewBill TNot a bad movie about a corrupt salmon harvester willing to break some salmon fishing laws in order to make a few bucks. His girlfriend and his own brother are kept in the dark about what's happening, while he hires a indian woman who's hot for him and some stupid fishermen to do the dirty work. Not a bad little film, Certainly different then other films from this time period. |
