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.

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: Escapements of Chinook salmon have fallen below the lower bound of the current BEG range for Chilkat River in 3 of the past 5 years, for King Salmon River in 4 of the past 5 years, and for the Taku River in 5 of the past 5 years. In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the management of sustainable salmon fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended the Chilkat and King Salmon River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) stocks be designated as stocks of “management concern” in 2017 followed by approval from the Alaska Board of Fisheries at the 2018 Southeast and Yakutat Finfish and Shellfish meeting. In October 2020, the department recommended the continuation of stock of management concern status for the Chilkat and King Salmon Rivers and to add the Taku River Chinook salmon stock at 2021 Southeast Alaska and Yakutat meeting. A “management concern” is defined as “a concern arising from a chronic inability, despite use of specific management measures, to maintain escapements for a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” Since 2012, the department has implemented conservative management measures to reduce the harvest of the Chilkat River stock of Chinook salmon and increase escapement. Through these measures, and from actions taken to reduce the harvest of the Taku River stock of Chinook salmon, by extension, harvest on the stock of Chinook salmon from the King Salmon River may likewise have been reduced. Although these management actions have been effective at reducing overall harvest rates, the poor runs have been so low that achievement of BEGs has been problematic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended that the Unuk River stock of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) be designated as a “stock of management concern” in October 2017. This recommendation was adopted by the Alaska Board of Fisheries (board) in January 2018. Then, in October 2020, the department recommended continuing this designation and additionally recommended that the Chickamin River stock of Chinook salmon be added 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 a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” The escapement of the Unuk River stock of Chinook salmon has been below the lower bound of the existing BEG (1,800–3,800 fish) in 3 of the past 5 years (2016–2020). The escapement of Chickamin River Chinook salmon has been below the lower bound of the existing BEG (2,150–4,300 fish) in 4 of the past 5 years (2016–2020). Since 2014, the department has implemented conservative management actions to reduce harvest of Unuk River Chinook salmon, and by extension and proximity to the Unuk River, it is assumed those actions have reduced harvests of Chickamin River Chinook salmon as well.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to guidelines established in the Policy for the Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (department) recommended that the Stikine River and Andrew Creek stocks of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) be designated as stocks 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 a salmon stock within the bounds of the SEG [sustainable escapement goal], BEG [biological escapement goal], OEG [optimum escapement goal], or other specified management objectives for the fishery.” Escapements of Stikine River Chinook salmon have fallen below the lower bound of the existing BEG (14,000 to 28,000 fish) each of the last 5 years (2016 to 2020). Since 2016, the department has implemented conservative management measures that have been effective in reducing the harvest of Stikine River Chinook salmon. Andrew Creek is a tributary to the Stikine River located entirely within Alaska. Chinook salmon escapements to Andrew Creek have been below the BEG (650 to 1,500 fish) in 4 of the previous 5 years. It is assumed actions that have reduced the harvest of Stikine River Chinook salmon have also reduced harvest of Andrew Creek Chinook salmon.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the guidelines established in the Policy for Management of Sustainable Salmon Fisheries (SSFP; 5 AAC 39.222), the Alaska Board of Fisheries (BOF) classified the Norton Sound Subdistrict 5 (Shaktoolik) and Subdistrict 6 (Unalakleet) Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha stock as a stock of concern, specifically a yield concern, at its January 2004 meeting. An action plan was developed by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) and acted upon by the BOF in January 2004. The SSFP directs ADF&G to assess salmon stocks in areas addressed during the BOF regulatory cycle to identify stocks of concern and in the case of Norton Sound Subdistricts 5 and 6 Chinook salmon, to reassess the stock of concern status. In 2007, the BOF continued the Subdistrict 5 and Subdistrict 6 Chinook salmon classification as a stock of yield concern and adopted a Chinook salmon management plan (5 AAC 04.395) in order to increase escapements and restore the stock to historical levels of abundance. Escapement goals were achieved in 2007 and 2009, but only as a result of the subsistence fishing schedule stipulated in the management plan, inriver gillnet mesh size restrictions, and early closures to subsistence and sport fisheries. Given the continued inability to maintain near average yields despite the use of specific management measures, the Subdistricts 5 and 6 Chinook salmon stock continues to meet the definition for a stock of yield concern as defined in the SSFP. Therefore, ADF&G recommends continuing the stock of yield concern classification. ADF&G is recommending changes to the management plan in order to ensure commercial fisheries directed on chum O. keta and pink salmon O. gorbuscha are prosecuted in a manner that does not negatively affect the Subdistricts 5 and 6 Chinook salmon subsistence fishery and escapement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent Alaska-wide downturns in productivity and abundance of Chinook salmon stocks have created social and economic hardships across many communities in rural and urban Alaska. There is a fundamental need to more precisely characterize productivity and abundance trends of Chinook salmon stocks across Alaska, gather essential information necessary to understand root causes of these widespread declines, and track population trends into the future. This document outlines a foundation of stock assessment and research programs among a suite of indicator stocks across Alaska designed as a long-term commitment to address fundamental knowledge gaps, elucidate causal mechanisms behind observed trends, and improve management capabilities. A team of nine Alaska Department of Fish and Game biologists and scientists worked collaboratively with federal agencies and academic partners to develop this plan to guide efforts towards better understanding productivity and abundance trends of Chinook salmon. In this plan we describe the general life history of Chinook salmon in Alaska; document stock-specific declines in productivity, abundance, and harvest that have occurred; and, described gaps in knowledge that limit management options when responding to downturns in productivity. The core of this proposed plan is a stock-specific, life history-based approach to research focused on twelve indicator stocks from around Alaska, representing diverse life history and migratory characteristics across a broad geographic range. Stock assessment programs on indicator stocks target specific objectives so that gaps in our knowledge of Chinook salmon can be addressed in a practical, cost-effective, and structured approach. The twelve indicator stocks, from Southeast Alaska to the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim are: Unuk, Stikine, Taku, Chilkat, Copper, Susitna, Kenai, Karluk, Chignik, Nushagak, Kuskokwim, and Yukon rivers. Recommended stock assessments include enumeration of adult escapement and stock-specific harvests in all relevant fisheries, as well as estimates of juvenile Chinook salmon abundance during the smolt stage (Table 1 and Table 2). As a companion to these stock-specific and fishery-based projects, we also recommend a suite of local and traditional knowledge studies (Table 2), nearshore marine surveys, and life history process studies (Table 3). Approximate annual costs by type of activity are shown in Table 4. This plan represents a long-term effort where implementation of stock assessment programs on indicator stocks addresses critical knowledge gaps that limit management capabilities. Implementation to the fullest extent possible provides most opportunity for improved information to assist managers, particularly during times of low abundance.
