Bristol Bay Fisheries Report: June 27, 2018

Caitlin Tan/KDLG

For only the third time since this fishery began in 1884, yesterday the Nushagak District hauled in more than a million sockeye!

Nushagak District put 1 million sockeye on the books yesterday. On tonight's show we hear from a Coffee Point set netter and from a drift fisherman in Egegik. KDLG's fish reporter Mitch Borden checks in from Chignik Bay just hours after he landed in the village. Also, a Dillingham doctor gives tips on how to stay healthy when the season gets tough.

Catch this program nightly at 6 p.m., 10 p.m., and 2 a.m. on AM 670, and online at KDLG.org. (With early broadcasts Saturday and Sunday at 1:30 p.m.)
