January 2010 Update
- Here's a real good overview of what it's like to work on a fishing boat in Alaska. This article was written by the founder of AFJC.
- Alaska is once again the nation's #1 fishing state, a position it's held since 1975. The state's 2008 harvest revenues, just released, came in at $1.7 billion. The number of people directly employed in Alaska's seafood industry in 2008? 52,000!
- The Bristol Bay sockeye season came in big this summer. Weather was great, fishing was steady, and when it wrapped up at the end of July, thirty one million sockeye salmon were harvested by the hard working crews of "The Bay's" 1,450 fishing boats. Thirty one million fish. What a year.
