1. What to Consider
• Escapements
• Allocation
• Tide
• Aerial Survey info
• Test Fish Info
• CPUE

2. June 25
• Wood River Cumulative escapements through 6:00
a.m. June 25, 60,000
• June 24 Daily escapements 20,000
• Midnight – 6:00 a.m. 10,000

3. Still June 25
• Nushagak sockeye escapements 120,000 through
midnight June 24
• Raw count at 6:00 a.m. 10,000
• King salmon escapements 30,000 total

4. Sonar
• Sonar counts fish
• Does not distinguish species
• Drift fish to apportion
• Drift by net size
• Inshore and offshore zone on each bank

5. Igushik River
• Igushik River escapements is 7,000 through midnight
and 1,100 more at 6:00 a.m.
• Set gillnets fish 8 hours a day now
• Harvest was 20,000 June 24
• 5 day lag to tower

6. Anecdotal information
• A fisherman calls and says there are fish
everywhere in the district
• A subsistence user calls and says they had 8 kings
and no sockeye in their net

7. Aerial Survey
• The lower Nushagak had a jumper or two
• Below the sonar there seemed to be some fish but
visibility was poor so kind of inconclusive
• Wood River looked slow in the clear water but several
jumpers in the lower end

8. Other info
• Test boat was cut so no test fish info
• High tide is at 7:00 p.m. June 25 and 8:00 a.m.
June 26
• No harvest yet so no CPUE and no allocation
information

9. Announcement times
• The fleet listens for announcements at:
• 9:00 a.m.
• 12:00 p.m.
• 3:00 p.m.
• 6:00 p.m.
• And 8:00 p.m.

10. 3:00 p.m. June 25
• Wood River escapments 25,000 more fish since
6:00 a.m. now 85,000 total
• Nushagak only 5,000 since 6:00 a.m. and many
kings caught in the apportionment drifts

11. Assignment
• Now you must decide.
• Write an announcement that says what June 26
will bring.
• Fish or don’t fish.
• Justify your decision.
• If you fish, include what gear type is or isn’t fishing
• What time they start and how long they fish.
