889 | Bristol Bay Salmon Management with Tim Sands of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game

#889 Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/889

Presented by: Togiak River Lodge

Tim Sands is a fisheries management biologist with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, focused on the Nushagak and Togiak districts of Bristol Bay. His primary job is managing commercial salmon fisheries — mostly sockeye — while also protecting Chinook, chum, pink, and coho moving through the system.

We covered how sonar counts guide daily decisions, what happens when too many salmon return, and why king salmon are struggling statewide.
