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.

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 (board) classified the Yukon River king 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 at the January 2004, 2007, 2010, 2013 and 2016 board meetings. The stock of yield concern for king salmon was recommended to continue at the 2018 work session. King salmon escapement goals were generally met throughout the Alaska portion of the Yukon River drainage the past 5 years (2014-2018). Conservative management actions taken inseason have contributed to achieving escapement goals. Run size has been improving since 2013, but runs are still below the 1989-1998 period when run sizes were much larger and provided unrestricted subsistence harvest and a consistent commercial harvest. King salmon runs in 2014-2016 and 2018 have shown moderate increases sufficient to provide some subsistence harvest, but not commercial harvest. The run size in 2017 was the largest since 2003 and could have provided a full subsistence harvest and a surplus available for commercial. Inseason assessment uncertainty makes it challenging to fully utilize available surpluses. Yukon River summer chum salmon (O. keta) runs have had large surpluses available for harvest the past 5 years.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Report discusses 2006 Yukon River summer chum salmon stock status and a determination is made that it does not meet the definition of "stock of management concern." A "management concern" is defined as, "a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for salmon stocks within the bound of Sustainable Escapement Goal (SEG), Biological Escapement Goal (BEG), Optimal Escapement Goal (OEG), or other specified objectives for the fishery."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to guidelines established in the Policy for Management of Sustainable Fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended that McNeil River chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) be designated as a "stock of management concern." A "management concern" is defined as, "a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for salmon stocks within the bounds of the sustainable escapement goal (SEG), biological escapement goal (BEG), optimum escapement goal (OEG), or other specific management objectives for the fishery." Escapement of chum salmon has fallen below the lower end of the existing SEG range for McNeil River in 4 consecutive years (2012 2015), and during 11 of the past 20 years (1997--2016). Since 1994, the department has consistently issued emergency order closures of the McNeil River subdistrict during the chum salmon run to minimize harvest on this stock and increase escapement. These management actions have thus far proven insufficient to consistently achieve the SEG.

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.
