Coming up this week, Arne Fuglvog will spend less than a six months in prison for his fishing crimes; Southeast Native groups support trimming the sea otter population, but are concerned about some of a plan’s ramifications; and the start dates for two crab fisheries will remain flexible. All that and should seats on the North Pacific Council be dedicated to sports fishing?
We had help this week from KSKA’s Ellen Lockyer in Anchorage, CoastAlaska’s Ed Schoenfeld in Juneau, KFSK’s Joe Viechnicki in Petersburg and KMXT’s Jay Barrett in Kodiak.
