Coming up this week: the sockeye run in Bristol Bay dropped off suddenly over the weekend, and some fishermen are looking forward to fishing the silvers; there’s plenty of salmon news from Southeast, and Alaska’s largest commercial fishing port finally is getting wireless internet coverage. We had help this week from KDLG’s Mike Mason in Dillingham, KFSK’s Joe Viechnicki in Petersburg, KRBD’s Maria Dudzak in Ketchikan, and Brianna Gibbs in Kodiak.
Jay Barrett is the news director at KMXT in Kodiak.
