  Disseminating information on current fishery issues to fishers and others in the Alaska portion of the Yukon River drainage is important to help them understand how the salmon resource is being utilized, managed, and sustained. This information also improves communication between fishers, managers, and all with a vested interest in Yukon River salmon fisheries.
