The Big Bay Creek weir is approximately 9 m (30’) long and is located at the head of Big Bay on the west side of Shuyak Island. First constructed in 1988, the weir is normally operated by volunteers and employees of the Alaska Department of Natural Resources (ADNR) Division of State Parks from early August to mid-September. ADF&G Commercial Fisheries Management provides weir materials and logistical support. The Big Bay Creek weir was not operated in 1997, 1999 and 2003 to 2006.
