The Alaska Fisheries Report

Coming up this week, Sitka herring is being fished as a co-op this year, Foreign roe technicians can once again get a visa to work the salmon season here, and the sockeye forecast for Upper Cook Inlet appears to be deja vu all over again. All that, and what does it take to not blush when you hear the phrase “fish balls,” coming up on the Alaska Fisheries report. We had help from KCAW’s Rachel Waldholz in Sitka, APRN’s Liz Ruskin back in D-C, KDLL’s Shaylon Cochran in Kenai and KUCB’s Lauren Rosenthal in Unalaska.
