Book excerpt: "This report describes commercial salmon fisheries located in South Alaska Peninsula waters, further divided into 4 districts: (1) Southeastern District, consisting of waters between Kupreanof Point and McGinty Point; (2) South Central District,consisting of waters between McGinty Point and Arch Point Light; (3) Southwestern District, consisting of waters between Arch Point Light, False Pass, and Cape Pankof Light; and (4) Unimak District, consisting of waters between Cape Pankof Light and Scotch Cap, including Sanak Island (Appendices A2 through A6). The Southeastern District is further subdivided into 2 areas with different management plans: (1) the Shumagin Islands Section, consisting of the Shumagin Islands archipelago, and (2) the Southeastern District Mainland (SEDM), consisting of Stepovak, Balboa, and Beaver bays (Appendix A3). Data within this report supersedes data published in previous reports by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G)."--Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South Alaska Peninsula Management Area (Area M) commercial salmon fisheries are regulated by 3 distinct management plans. The South Unimak and Shumagin Islands June fisheries occur from June 7 through June 29 and target sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. The June fisheries commence according to a schedule that varies by gear type. The Post-June fishery may occur from July 6 through October 31 and is guided by the results of an immature salmon test fishery and the strength of local sockeye, chum O. keta, pink O. gorbuscha, and coho salmon O. kisutch returns. The Southeastern District Mainland (SEDM) is managed independently from the remainder of the South Alaska Peninsula fisheries from June 1 through October 31. A sockeye salmon allocation exists between the Chignik Management Area (CMA) and the SEDM where 7.6% of the sockeye salmon harvested in the CMA may be harvested in the SEDM. Of the sockeye salmon harvested in the SEDM during the allocation timeframe (June 1 through July 25), 80% are attributed to the allocation. After July 25, the SEDM is managed strictly on local stocks. This document summarizes the management strategy of the South Alaska Peninsula fisheries and outlines the requirements for industry participation in 2016.

Most commercial salmon fishing effort on the North Alaska Peninsula targeted sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. The 2016 commercial salmon harvest on the North Alaska Peninsula was 1,891 Chinook O. tshawytscha, 3,502,785 sockeye, 73,038 coho O. kisutch, 12,274 pink O. gorbuscha, and 88,894 chum O. keta salmon.

The sockeye salmon harvest in the Northern District of 3,463,187 fish was well above the 2006-2015 average harvest of 1,911,875 fish. Of the Northern District harvest, 90% (3,114,527 fish) were harvested in the sections between Port Moller and Outer Port Heiden. The North Alaska Peninsula chum salmon harvest of 88,894 fish was well below the 10-year average of 188,342 chum salmon, with about 79% (69,903 fish) of the harvest occurring in the Northwestern District, specifically in the Izembek-Moffet Bay Section. Nearly all Northern District chum salmon harvest was incidental as the result of targeted sockeye salmon fisheries.The estimated total sockeye salmon escapement for North Alaska Peninsula streams was 1,611,310 fish, above the 2006-2015 average of 1,016,378 fish. Approximately 63% of the sockeye salmon escapement occurred in the Northern District's 4 systems in which sockeye salmon escapements are enumerated with weirs (Nelson, Bear, Sandy, and Ilnik rivers).

The total exvessel value of all North Peninsula fisheries is estimated to be 22.9 million dollars. The majority of the value of the North Peninsula fisheries is made up of sockeye salmon harvested in the Northern District (22.2 million dollars). Total sockeye salmon escapement for North Alaska Peninsula streams was 2,365,317 fish, above the 2007-2016 average of 1,057,754 fish.
