Herring fishers strike Alaska’s Sitka sound for record haul
In Sitka Alaska commercial seine fishermen harvested over 10 000 tons of Pacific herring in two 30 minute openings. With a state quota near 14 723 tons for Sitka Sound this year they earned about 5 5 million dollars in a single day at 550 dollars per ton. Several boats delivered massive hauls though details remain with Treinen of Anchorage choosing not to disclose his catch. The record catches stem from an unusually favorable spawning spot attracting 50 permit holders to the area near Krazos Island.
