Record herring harvest forecast for Sitka in 2010

Posted by Robert Woolsey | Dec 15, 2009

SITKA, ALASKA The forecast for next spring’s record herring catch in Sitka Sound has as much to do with improved computer modeling as with high fish abundance.
The Alaska Department of Fish & Game on Friday (12-11-09) announced a guideline harvest level for the March 2010 fishery of almost 19-thousand tons, about four thousand tons more than last year.
