The Kodiak
commercial salmon harvest is heading north of 10-million. After Sunday's catch
of 600,000 - 584,000 of them pinks - the all-season figure was at 9,814,454
fish, with humpies accounting for 7.3-million of them.
Saturday
saw more than a half-million pinks delivered, and over 713,000 were caught on
Friday.
Sockeye are
still arriving in surges. Sunday it was 68-hundred, Saturday 14,400, and
Friday, 23,300. The total sockeye harvest was just over 1.8-million through
Sunday.
The Karluk,
Northwest Kodiak and Southwest Afognak district accounts for the lions share of
the commercial catch, with nearly 5-million of the pink harvest and about
600,000 of the red harvest.
Total coho
catch is nearly 36,000, though a big slug of hatchery silvers are expected on
the north end of Kodiak in the next few weeks.
Nearly
7,500 chum were netted on Sunday, bringing the season total to over 650,000.
The king harvest, as you might expect, is tapering off, with catches around 200
for the last few days.
We should
have an update with Monday's catch numbers by noon.
