The Alaska Department of Fish and Game says forecasted 2025 total Alaska commercial salmon harvest will be approximately 214.6 million fish, which is 111 million more salmon than the 2024 harvest.
The Alaska all-species salmon harvest for 2024 totaled approximately 103.5 million fish. This harvest was composed of 42.2 million sockeye, 40.0 million pink, 19.3 million chum, 1.8 million coho, and 244,000 Chinook salmon.
Most of the pink salmon harvest occurred in the Southeast region, and Bristol Bay continued to be the largest sockeye salmon producing region in Alaska.
The 2025 commercial salmon harvest forecast is 138.4 million pink, 52.9 million sockeye, 20.8 million chum, and 2.4 million coho salmon. If realized, the forecasted 2025 total Alaska commercial salmon harvest will be approximately 214.6 million fish.
