Year: 2013
Report ID: Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Sport Fish, Regional Operational Plan ROP.SF.2A.2013.17, Soldotna
Abstract: This project will collect and analyze age, sex, length (ASL), and genetic tissue samples of Chinook salmon harvested in the Upper Cook Inlet (UCI) eastside set gillnet (ESSN) commercial fishery. Genetic samples are needed to estimate the relative proportions and the number of Chinook salmon harvested in the ESSN commercial fishery temporally and geographically by reporting group. Sport Fish Division (SF) is responsible for the collection of genetic tissue samples and ASL data. Tissue samples will be sent to the Division of Commercial Fisheries (CF), Gene Conservation Lab (GCL), which will be responsible for mixed stock analysis (MSA).
