Forecast Published for Salmon Harvest summer 2009
This article has been adjusted by using more simple words in order to make understandable for everyone.
The Department of Fish and Game predicts fishermen will have the 11th-largest harvest in Alaska history in summer 2009 .
The department published its 2009 Alaska salmon forecast . It predicts a total harvest of almost 175 million salmon. It is an increase of about 30 million fish from last year. ( almost 20% )
The forecast give good news for pink salmon fishermen especially in Southeast ( Ketchikan, Wrangell, Petersburg, Sitka , Craig , Klowack ) and Prince William Sound, but it might be a tough year for Yukon River chinook (king salmon ) fishermen.
The director of the commercial fisheries division John Hilsinger said “We do have any concerns , for example, the chinook run on the Yukon River,” . “We expect that to be poor and we are making management plans to try to make sure people can harvest the other species and still protect the king salmon and still provide for subsistence.”
Bristol Bay might see another healthy run of sockeye ( red salmon or sox ). Approximately 24 million are predicted to be harvested. That’s less than 2008’s catch . In 2008 ,28 million has ben caught .

That s the news we all wait for
Thanx 4 sharing
Can someone summarize this ? Now , 2009 season is good or bad ?
09′S Season is expected better than the 08’s.This is not a fairy tale,It is a scientific information which is according to previous year’s movement.It was always like -one year good- and -one year bad- season movement.08 was not a good year that much but 07 was quite allright.And 06 was an awfull year.So it seems like 09 will be a good season but at the same time Fish is the only thing that you can rely on.So there would be some changes as well but i don’t think that there would be huge changes.Keep your hope Even Fish determine your fate
Have a nice Summer!
You’re welcome! Yep, we all need this hopeful forecasts
Wish you a great summer!
