Alaska's commercial salmon harvest continues to lag far behind 2025 levels

Total cumulative harvest through week 5 reaches just 24% of the annual projection, impacted by a sharp year-over-year decline across all species.

Alaska’s 2026 commercial salmon harvest through July 11 (statistical week 5) continued to lag far behind the 2025 catch, with all species declining year-over-year. The total harvest has reached 24% of the annual projection, led by sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) at 56%.

In Bristol Bay, the sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) catch is down 42% compared to 2025. Following an estimated harvest of 2.3 million sockeye salmon on July 4, harvest in the Bay remained relatively consistent throughout the week, averaging 1.36 million fish harvested per day. This pattern follows historical run timing with the harvest season peaking on July 4.

 


Keta salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) harvests have declined 67% year-over-year with harvest in all regions decreasing, except Chignik (+135%). Harvest volume changed most in Prince William Sound, although the decline is partially due to the unusually high harvest in 2025.

アラスカの商業用サケ漁獲高は2025年の水準を大幅に下回り続ける

第5週までの累計漁獲高は年間予測のわずか24%にとどまり、全魚種で前年比大幅減が影響。

2026年7月11日統計週第5週)までのアラスカにおける2026年商業用サケ漁獲高は、2025年の漁獲実績を大幅に下回り続けており、すべての魚種で前年比減少となっています。累計漁獲高は年間予測の24%に達しており、紅鮭(Oncorhynchus nerka)が56%と全体を牽引しています。

ブリストル湾では、紅鮭(Oncorhynchus nerka)の漁獲高が2025年と比較して42%減少しています。7月4日に推定230万尾の紅鮭が水揚げされた後、同湾での漁獲量は週間を通じて比較的安定しており、1日平均136万尾の漁獲を維持しました。このパターンは、漁期が7月4日頃にピークを迎えるという歴史的な遡上時期に合致しています。

チャムケタ(秋鮭)(Oncorhynchus keta)の漁獲高は前年比で67%減少しており、チグニック+135%)を除くすべての地域で減少しています。水揚げ量の変化が最も大きかったのはプリンスウィリアム湾ですが、この減少は一部、2025年の漁獲量が異例の高水準であったことに起因しています。

コッパーリバーの流し刺し網漁業は、6月11日以来となる本流地区での最初の操業許可を得ました。7月9日、流し刺し網漁業が24時間にわたり操業され、統計週第24週以来となるコッパーリバー地区での最初の紅鮭水揚げが記録されました。
