Yukon managers defend limits; 2009 fishery value lowest in decades
BETHEL — Outraged fishermen lashed out at state fishery managers on Monday, telling them at a House Resources Committee meeting that they mismanaged struggling salmon stocks on the Yukon River at the expense of rural Alaskans.
John White, former chair of the state Board of Fisheries, said their decisions showed “antagonistic disregard for the people of Western Alaska."

John Hilsinger, director of commercial fisheries, called Yukon the most difficult river to manage in the state because of its size, the station reports.
"The decision that the manager makes on, lets say the 20th of June, down in Emmonak, he doesn't always know what the result of that decision is going to be until five or six weeks later," Hilsinger said, according to KYUK.
(This is something I've heard from fishery managers about the King run in particular. It's a relatively tiny run on a massive river, they say, making the Chinook needles in a haystack.)
