Russians, Alaskans and pink salmon continue to dominate Pacific salmon commercial fishery.
A record number of Pacific salmon were harvested last year by commercial fishers in the U.S., Russia, Japan, Canada and South Korea, with pink salmon providing an overwhelming amount of the abundance.
Russia took the lion’s share of the commercial harvest – 55 per cent, or 602 million salmon. The U.S. took 427 million salmon, with Alaska fishermen accounting for most of that . While commercial fisherman in B.C. harvested 503,000 sockeye in 2023, Alaskan fishermen caught 52 million sockeye. Pink salmon accounted for 63 per cent of the 2023 global harvest of Pacific salmon by weight, followed by chum , sockeye and coho .
