Commercial crabbers are out fishing again this month for Dungeness crab in Southeast Alaska. The numbers are in for the summer crab fishery and it looks like it was a pretty average season.
This year’s summer harvest might seem a little so-so if you’re comparing it to last year. But then 2014 was unusual. It saw a record harvest of 4.06 million pounds.
This summer’s harvest was 2.69 million pounds and that’s pretty normal. It’s a tad over the average seen the last five years and a tad under the ten year average.
