According to a report published this week, commercial fishers in six fishing districts off southeastern Alaska hauled some 50,000 Chinook, 1.2 million chum, 540,000 coho, 34 million pink, and 800,000 sockeye salmon out of the water in 2021.
 

Many of B.C.’s largest salmon runs pass through Alaskan waters on their way home to spawn in B.C., according to the Watershed Watch Salmon Society and SkeenaWild Conservation Trust, which commissioned the report.

The report authors used catch data obtained through from Fisheries and Oceans Canada staff, the Alaska Department of Fisheries and Game, other agencies and online resources.
