Outbound! King Salmon Airport Busy Monday as Eastside Districts Wind Down

Mike Mason, KDLG

The AKN terminal was packed full of outbound fishermen and processing plant workers as Bristol Bay's eastside stands by, and stands down.

Egegik was opened to more fishing Monday, but Naknek-Kvichak and Ugashik have remained closed. Listen to Mike Mason describe the scene at the King Salmon Airport Monday morning, as the hundreds of outbound travelers seemed to indicate the season may be winding down quickly.
