Brown and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The salmon fishery on the Yukon River is one of the largest subsistence fisheries in the state, and salmon fishing is a central component of the socio-economic profile of most households and communities in the Yukon River region. Throughout history, residents of the Yukon River have engaged in the exchange of salmon and other subsistence resources for small amounts of cash. Customary trade, the legal term for this practice, plays a long-term and important role in subsistence economies; indeed it is recognized as a customary and traditional subsistence practice in Alaska state statute (AS 16.05.940(34)). However, Yukon River salmon, especially Chinook salmon, have experienced a decline in abundance since 2000, resulting in restrictions to subsistence and commercial fishing. During this time of restriction, Yukon River residents have remained divided over the issue of customary trade, variably characterizing it as either a legitimate subsistence activity or a problematic moral choice to sell a subsistence resource when Chinook salmon numbers remain low. Although rich, qualitative accounts of customary trade along the middle and lower Yukon River document this important historical and contemporary practice, there has been little research on the topic along the upper Yukon River. This report examines customary trade in the upper Yukon River communities of Manley Hot Springs, Fort Yukon, and Venetie and finds that customary trade can only be understood in relation to the equally complex processes of sharing and barter as part of a continuum of exchange that serves to distribute subsistence resources within and between communities.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yukon River Joint Technical Committee (JTC) of the United States and Canada serves as a scientific advisory body to the Yukon River Panel. The JTC discusses harvest and escapement goals, management trends, post-season reviews, and pre-season outlooks, and results of cooperative research projects. The report summarizes the status of salmon stocks (chinook, coho, summer and fall chum salmon) in 2018 with reference to historical data as far back as 1961, presents an outlook for the 2019 season, and provides data on the utilization of salmon species by commercial, subsistence, aboriginal, personal use, domestic, and sport/recreational fisheries. The report further compiles summaries of Yukon River projects (e.g., test fishery, sonar projects, genetic sampling, mixed stock analysis) and a review of salmon bycatch in the groundfish and pollock fisheries of the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska. Yukon River escapement goals for chinook and fall chum salmon remain unchanged for 2019.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides the Alaska Board of Fisheries with information on Yukon Area salmon stock status, including escapement and harvest data for the January 2023 regulatory meeting. In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) classified the Yukon River Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha stock as a stock of yield concern at its September 2000 work session. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and acted upon by the board in January 2001. The status as a yield concern was continued for Yukon River Chinook salmon at the January 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019 board meetings. Chinook salmon escapement goal performance has been mixed throughout the past 5 years (2018–2022) throughout the Alaska portion of the Yukon River drainage, but escapement goals were not met from 2020 to 2022. Conservative management actions taken inseason have included full subsistence fishery closures to protect low runs as they migrate upriver. Additionally, Yukon River summer chum, fall chum O. keta, and coho salmon O. kisutch recently experienced a drastic decline since 2020. Most escapement goals for chum and coho salmon have not been achieved since 2020 despite significant subsistence, personal use, and commercial fishing restrictions and closures. Historically, the Yukon River chum and coho salmon stocks have met or exceeded escapement goals and provided for subsistence, personal use, and commercial fisheries, with a few exceptions of decreased production in a couple tributaries.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yukon River Joint Technical Committee (JTC) of the United States and Canada meets twice a year to analyze and discuss harvest and escapement goals, management trends, postseason reviews, preseason outlooks, and results of cooperative research projects for Canadian-origin Yukon River salmon. This report summarizes the status of Chinook Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, coho O. kisutch, and summer and fall chum salmon O. keta stocks in 2021, presents a 2022 season outlook, and provides data about salmon harvests in commercial, subsistence, First Nations, personal use, domestic, and sport or public angling fisheries. Summaries of Yukon River research projects are also included. For 2021, the preliminary estimate of Chinook salmon (mainstem) spawning escapement in Canada was 31,452 fish, which was below the interim management escapement goal (IMEG) range of 42,500–55,000 fish. A preliminary estimate of the total Canadian-origin Chinook salmon run was 32,972 fish. The preliminary estimate of fall chum salmon spawning escapement in the Canadian mainstem Yukon River was approximately 23,170 fish, which was below the IMEG range of 70,000–104,000 fish. The preliminary estimate of fall chum salmon spawning escapement in the Fishing Branch River (Porcupine River), obtained from a weir count was 2,413 fish, which was below the IMEG range of 22,000–49,000 fish. Recommended interim management escapement goals for Canadian-origin mainstem fall chum salmon and Fishing Branch (Porcupine River) fall chum salmon in 2022 remain the same as for 2021. The JTC recommended a new escapement goal for Canadian-origin Yukon River Chinook salmon of 52,500 with an acceptable deviation range of 42,500–62,500. The Yukon River Panel will be presented with the new Chinook salmon escapement goal recommendation for consideration at their 2022 pre-season meeting.

Download or read book Yukon River Fall Chum Salmon Stock Status and Fall Season Salmon Fisheries written by Fred J. Bue and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (BOF) classified the Yukon River fall chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta stock as a yield concern and classified the Toklat and Fishing Branch Rivers fall chum salmon stocks as management concerns at the September 2000 work session. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF & G) and acted upon by the BOF in January 2001. The SSFP directs ADF & G to assess salmon stocks in areas addressed during the BOF regulatory cycle to identify stocks of concern and to reassess the stock of concern status. In 2003, the department recommended continuation of the Yukon River fall chum salmon classification as a stock of yield concern, which was supported by the BOF at its January 2004 meeting. The Toklat River stock was removed as a management concern because the BOF realigned the escapement objective from an optimal escapement goal (OEG) to the established biological escapement goal (BEG) which did not fit the criteria of a management concern. However, the Toklat River fall chum salmon stock was included in the drainage-wide yield concern classification. The Fishing Branch River stock was also removed as a management concern because management of that portion of the drainage is covered by an annex to the Pacific Salmon Treaty, the U.S./Canada Yukon River Salmon Agreement (Agreement) which is governed under the authority of the Yukon River Panel (Panel). Based on the much improved run size since 2002 and large available surpluses in 2003, 2005 and 2006 being near the historical yield, the Yukon River fall chum salmon stock no longer meets the stock of yield concern criteria. Therefore, ADF & G recommends the Yukon River fall chum salmon stock no longer be considered as a stock of concern. BEGs for fall chum salmon and the Yukon River Drainage Fall Chum Salmon Management Plan were both reviewed and updated at the January 2004 BOF meeting. Escapement and harvest monitoring projects are in place to aid in managing for sustained yield objectives. Proposal 173 has been submitted to the BOF for considering changes to the Yukon River Coho Salmon Management Plan to coordinate management of the overlapping fall chum and coho salmon fisheries.

Book excerpt: with the issues involved in the management of salmon fishing. farming and ranching and the implications for production costs and the availa bility of supplies. Chapters 6 and 7 investigate processing. marketing and distribution and Chapter 8 discusses the workings of salmon markets and the main factors affecting the demand for salmon. Finally. chapter 9 summarises the main findings of the study and considers the issues likely to define the future of the industry. The main interest of the book is in salmon sold commer cially and mention is only made in passing of the rather different. though important. issues involved in the management of sport or recreation fisheries. This book does not cover all species of salmon but concentrates on the main species of current commercial significance. These are the five commercially important species of Pacific salmon all of which belong to the single separate genus ONCORHYNCHUS together with SALMO SALAR. the Atlantic salmon. The related SALMO GAIRDNERI (rainbow trout) and SALMO TRUTTA (brown troutl seatrout) are outside the scope of the book. although since these compete closely with salmon. the relationship is discussed. 1.2 THE SALMON: LIFE CYCLE AND SPECIES The family salmonidae is indigenous to the Northern Hemisphere and is found from the temperate zone northwards to beyond the Arctic Circle. 1n both Pacific and Atlantic waters. They are not· native to the Southern Hemisphere but have been successfully introduced into New Zealand. into Argentina. Venezuela and more recently Chile and the Kerguelen Islands.
