    Division of Commercial Fisheries Alaska Department of Fish and Game Sam Rabung, Director Doug Vincent-Lang, Commissioner Region I, Petersburg Area Office PO Box 115526 PO Box 667 Juneau, AK 99811-5526 Petersburg, AK 99833 www.adfg.alaska.gov Advisory Announcement CONTACT: Nicole Zeiser For Immediate Release: May 18, 2021 Haines Area Management Biologist [email protected] (907) 766-2830 CHILKAT RIVER AND CHILKAT INLET SUBSISTENCE SALMON FISHING CLOSURE ANNOUNCEMENT The following information pertains to the 2021 Chilkat River and Chilkat Inlet subsistence salmon fisheries. The 2021 Chilkat River Chinook salmon preseason total run forecast is 1,500 large fish, which is below the lower bound of the escapement goal range of 1,750–3,500 fish. The Chilkat River Chinook salmon stock was designated as a stock of management concern at the 2018 BOF meeting after multiple years (2012–2014 and 2016–2018) of failing to achieve escapement. The Alaska Board of Fisheries approved an action plan that outlines specific actions to be taken in the District 15 drift gillnet, troll, sport, personal use, and subsistence fisheries to reduce harvest of Chilkat River Chinook salmon. Salmon fisheries in Lynn Canal and Chilkat Inlet (District 15) are managed under the Lynn Canal and Chilkat River King Salmon Fishery Management Plan (5 AAC 33.384), the Policy for the management of mix stock salmon fisheries, and the 2018 Chilkat River king salmon action plan (https://www.adfg.alaska.gov/FedAidPDFs/RIR.1J.2018.05.pdf). Because of continued poor marine production of Chilkat River Chinook salmon and a poor forecast for 2021, management actions prescribed in the management and action plans will again be taken in the Chilkat Inlet and the Chilkat River subsistence fisheries.

In both Alaska and Canada, this complex system of mountain ranges along their common border is sometimes referred to as the Icefield Ranges. In Canada, the Icefield Ranges extend from the Province of British Columbia into the Yukon Territory. The Alaskan St. Elias Mountains extend northwest from Lynn Canal, Chilkat Inlet, and Chilkat River on the east; to Cross Sound and Icy Strait on the southeast; to the divide between Waxell Ridge and Barkley Ridge and the western end of the Robinson Moun- tains on the southwest; to Juniper Island, the central Bagley Icefield, the eastern wall of the valley of Tana Glacier, and Tana River on the west; and to Chitistone River and White River on the north and northwest.

  • Chart 5-25 Haines Event Visitors, 2008-2011
    Despite receiving few cruise ships in port, Haines benefits from the Skagway cruise ship port of call because Haines businesses and the HCVB worked to develop opportunities for cruise passengers to visit Haines during their stay in Skagway. In 2011, approximately 28,500 cruise ship passengers visited Haines via fast day ferry between Skagway and Haines to do day excursions in Haines. These visitors spent an average of $135 per person in Haines during their stay in 2011, or $3.8 million (2011 Haines Cruise and Fast Ferry Passenger Survey, McDowell Group). Dependable fast day boat runs between these communities is essential to capture this business. The Haines Borough’s Convention and Visitor Bureau has partnered with community organizations and businesses to actively create destination events and market them. The Haines Chamber of Commerce’s annual events calendar lists a number of activities that attract nearly 15,000 independent visitors annually (Chart 5-25). The largest of these is the multi-day Southeast Alaska State Fair that features live music, food, arts and crafts, farm animals, and amusement rides. In 2011, this event attracted 11,500 people. The next largest event is the 148 mile Kluane Chilkat International Bike Race in June, popular with local, Juneau and Whitehorse residents.
