The Alaska Department of Fish and Game has released the 2015 Upper Cook Inlet sockeye salmon forecast. The total run is projected to be 5.8 million. Of that run, the escapement goal is 2.1 million. That leaves an expected harvest for all user groups to be 3.7 million. If this harvest is met it will equal the 20 year average.
This is good news for commercial, sport, and dip net user groups. I'm waiting with bated breath for the 2015 king salmon forecast. As soon as it's released I will report on it. Fingers crossed...
