Salmon populations in the Yukon River are managed through fishing harvest regulations determined by estimates of how many individuals enter the river and are expected to reach their spawning grounds. The number of Canadian-origin Chinook salmon passing are estimated at a lower-river assessment site...

Salmon populations in the Yukon River are managed through fishing harvest regulations determined by estimates of how many individuals enter the river and are expected to reach their spawning grounds. The number of Canadian-origin Chinook salmon passing are estimated at a lower-river assessment site at Pilot Station (river mile [RM] 123) and at an upper-river site at Eagle (RM 1210); both sites are by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G). Counts should be comparable between sites given that this salmon stock must pass both locations during migration to spawning grounds further upriver in Canada.
