Abstract

The article focuses on the decline in the king salmon harvest in Yukon River Delta in Alaska. According to Yuk'ip fisherman in the area, the decline is due to pollock boats which trawl off the Alaska's coasts which bycatches salmons. It noted that despite this problem which is being blamed to the Alaskan pollock fishery, the sector has been certified as sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council. Measures to address the bycatch situation in the state are also cited.
