5 AAC 18.363 - North Shelikof Strait Sockeye Salmon Management Plan
Current through February 24, 2025
(a) The purpose of the North Shelikof Strait Sockeye Salmon Management Plan is to allow traditional fisheries in the area to be conducted on Kodiak Area salmon stocks, while minimizing the directed harvest of Cook Inlet sockeye salmon stocks. The board recognizes that some incidental harvest of other stocks has and will occur in this area while the seine fishery is managed for Kodiak Area salmon stocks. The board intends, however, to prevent a repetition of the non-traditional harvest pattern which occurred during 1988.
