2019 Kenai River Early King Salmon Run Emergency Order

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG) has announced today an emergency order (EO) for the 2019 early Kenai River king salmon season. The official press release can be found here.

In an effort to protect future king salmon runs, ADFG has restricted the lower Kenai River (from the mouth of the river to Slikok Creek) to catch and release fishing. This restriction is in effect from May 1st, until June 30th.
As of now, there are no restrictions on the late Kenai king salmon run (July 1st until July 31st).  I repeat, as of now, there are no restrictions on the late Kenai king salmon run.....
