The Kodiak
commercial salmon harvest blew past the 10-million mark on Monday, when nearly
700,000 salmon were caught by the fleet, bringing the total to 10.5-million.
All but
16,000 of yesterday's catch were pink salmon, bringing the humpy total for the
season to just shy of 8-million.
With 6,500
sockeye harvested, the red total is 1.8-million. The 7,500 chum catch yesterday
brings their total to 659,000. Just 2,400 silvers were harvested for a season
count of 38,000, and 76 rather late king salmon brought the chinook tally to
12,791.
