The Alaska Department of Fish and Game has announced effective 7/28/13 the Kenai River will be closed to all king salmon fishing until the end of the season (7/31/13). This closure is an effort to conserve late-run king salmon escapement.
I anticipate another emergency order will be made soon to restrict the beginning of the silver salmon season to no bait, single hook. This happened last year when the king season closed. ADFG should take this measure to reduce incidental catching of king salmon.
Stay tuned to the blog for anymore emergency orders.
