As of right now, all areas are posting CPUE's less than the 20 year average. In order to keep the coho fishery open beyond Sept. 20, ADFG has to see 'exceptional' abundances. Here's a link that will take you to the latest catch rate info, although the data is updated daily and things will change right up til closure time.
If there is suddenly a big push of fish, we'll contact ADFG and see what might be possible with respect to extending any or all areas. At this point, the fishery is set to close on Sept. 20th.
Safety First...
