Fishing Report for August 12, 2003
The following is a briefing of recent sport fishery conditions to the Lower Kuskokwim/ Lower Yukon and Kuskokwim Bay sport fisheries. Sport fishing regulations for the lower Kuskokwim and lower Yukon rivers are published in the [url "http://www.sf.adfg.state.ak.us/statewide/html/aykregs.stm"]2003 Region III Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim and Upper Copper/Upper Susitna River Regulations Summary[/url]. You can also pick up a copy of the Regulations at local license vendors, or at Fish and Game offices. [url "http://www.state.ak.us/adfg/sportf/region3/rgn3home.htm"]The Sport Fish web page[/url] is an excellent reference site to browse through sport fishing regulations and many services provided by the Department, such as purchasing a license or current fisheries information or in-season regulation changes by emergency order (EO).
Many of the fisheries in Alaska are under dual management with State and Federal agencies and the complexity of regulations can be intimidating. It is your responsibility to know the land status and regulations of your activities.
Emergency Orders and Regulation Changes
The sport fishery for chinook (king) and chum salmon in the entire Kuskokwim River drainage opens on 15 June with the daily bag and possession limit of one (1) chinook (king) OR one (1) chum salmon per day. Further details are located on the [url "http://www.sf.adfg.state.ak.us/statewide/EONR/index.cfm"]EO web page[/url]
Waters subject to ANILCA Title VIII (including waters in which the United States has asserted a reserved water right) are open to fishing under state regulations but are subject to federal restrictions and closures. If you are planning on fishing in waters under federal subsistence jurisdiction, you must comply with federal regulations. To familiarize yourself with the federal regulations and how they may affect your planned activity, you should contact the federal agencies. In-season closures or temporary regulatory changes can occur at any time.
