November 21, 2025 — The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) and NOAA Fisheries are forecasting a near average pink salmon harvest in Southeast Alaska next year, with similar numbers to the last two seasons.
The official forecast predicts a harvest of 19 million fish, which would be at the low end of what the department considers an average harvest, and slightly below what commercial fishers harvested in the 2025 season.
