REFM Division quarterly report for April-June 2001for Alaska Fisheries Science Center.
In the multispecies scenario, the results showed greater complexity. Fishing was an important factor driving the dynamics of all species. An increase in fishing mortality produced a decrease in the mean spawning biomass in the majority of the species. For Pacific herring, in which fishing mortality was held constant at the 20% harvest rate policy presently used in its management, an opposite trend was observed. This tendency was due to predation interactions. As the fishing mortality of Pacific herring predators increased, their abundance decreased, producing a reduction in Pacific herring predation mortality and thus an increase in its mean SSB ratio. This shows how fishing changes on predator populations in combination with predation interactions have the potential to cause unintended changes in prey populations. ... [Read More]

WDFW -- The Weekender Report: Licensing options expand with fishing opportunities
Fishing: The region's two "bubble" fisheries for chinook salmon are under way in Tulalip and Elliott bays. The fishery on Tulalip Bay has been open on weekends since early June, and the downtown Seattle waterfront fishery just got started July 8, but neither has been red-hot. "We've been at the boat ramps that provide access to both bubbles from dawn to dusk, and there just aren't many fishing coming in," said Patrick "Slim" Simpson, a WDFW fish sampler in the region. "Most of the catches in the Elliott Bay bubble were resident blackmouth, and the fishing was pretty good during the first two days of the opening weekend. But by the third day of the opener, only a handful of fish were caught," Simpson said. "The Tulalip bubble has never really taken off, although a few of the chinook we've checked have weighed in the mid 20s." Simpson said the largest fish out of Elliott Bay checked in at about 22 pounds. Fishing has been best early in the morning for anglers slowly trolling large spo ... [Read More]
