Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) assesses the abundance of herring stocks annually using a variety of methods including aerial surveys. ADF&G is working to modernize data collection methods. For the Southeast Alaska 2024 herring season, a data collection app will again be used regionwide. Use the selectors in the map below to show survey data by year (2020- Sitka only), date and management area. Photos of herring spawn, herring schools, and herring predators if available may be viewed by clicking on the individual features in the map. Survey data shown is for reference purposes only and may not have been edited. These maps are still under development, feedback is appreciated.
