Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South Alaska Peninsula Management Area (Area M) commercial salmon fisheries are regulated by 3 management plans. The South Unimak and Shumagin Islands June fisheries occur from June 6 through June 28 and target sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. The June fisheries commence according to one schedule that combines all gear types. 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 up to 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, excluding the Northwest Stepovak Section from July 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 2021.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides commercial salmon fishers and buyers on the South Alaska Peninsula with information and guidelines that will be used to conduct the Shumagin Islands immature salmon test fishery during 2019, 2020, and 2021. The presence of immature salmon in South Alaska Peninsula waters has warranted restrictions to commercial salmon fishing in some years. In 1990, a test-fishing program was instituted by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game in the Shumagin Islands to determine the presence and abundance of immature salmon in South Alaska Peninsula waters prior to commercial salmon fishing periods in July. In 1998, the Alaska Board of Fisheries adopted regulations in the Post-June Management Plan (5 AAC 09.366(i)), mandating that the test fishery be conducted to assist management staff with making commercial fishery management decisions. The Shumagin Islands test fishery will be operated beginning July 2 with one purse seine vessel making a minimum of six sets per day. The objective of the test fishery is to assess the marine abundance of immature salmon in the vicinity of the Shumagin Islands. Test fishing will be conducted prior to the first July commercial purse seine fishing period in the Shumagin Islands. Additional test fishing may be required if the abundance of immature salmon harvested during the commercial fishery is above the regulatory threshold.
