Alaska Fisheries Report – June 21, 2018

Play

On this week’s Alaska Fisheries Report, the China tariffs on Alaska seafood is definitely bad news for the industry, though there appears to be a bright spot for reprocessed fish.

Some good news, after a long wait, federal disaster relief for the 2016 pink salmon season is finally allocated.

Also, Sitka salmon fishermen voice concerns about the Pacific Salmon Treaty.

We had help from Avery Lill and Isabelle Ross at KDLG in Dillingham, Emily Kwong at KCAW in Sitka, Alaska Public Media Reporter Liz Ruskin, and Daysha Eaton and Kayla Desroches from KMXT in Kodiak.
