July 15 - Bristol Bay Harvest Charts

The 2021 Bristol Bay sockeye harvest stands at 36.4 million fish through July 15. The Nushagak and Ugashik Districts are well above their average harvest pace. Egegik and Naknek-Kvichak are running below their 5-year average harvest. The harvest was 1.36 million fish yesterday.

The charts below illustrate the cumulative harvests through the previous day, compared to the prior five-year average for Bristol Bay as a whole and by fishing district (note: Togiak is excluded because data is often confidential, leading to incomplete time series).
