It's the first time in two years fisherman can harvest the crab, offering a slight reprieve to the beleaguered fishery.
Alaska fishermen will be able to harvest red king crab for the first time in two years, offering a slight reprieve to the beleaguered fishery beset by low numbers likely There was no such rebound for snow crab, however, and that fishery will remain closed for a second straight year, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game announced Friday.
But Prout expects fewer boats to participate in this season’s crab fishery. Difficulty in finding crew members and having enough money to maintain boats may limit the number of vessels participating this season, he added. More than 2.65 million pounds were caught in 2020. The fishery saw nearly 130 million pounds caught in 1980 before declining for the next three decades.
The Tanner crab fishery will open as normal after the number of adult mature male Tanner crabs exceeded the threshold, one species that has signs of optimism in the coming years for fisheries managers.

Alaska fishermen will be allowed to harvest lucrative red king crab in the Bering SeaAlaska fishermen will be able to harvest red king crab, the largest and most lucrative of all the Bering Sea crab species, for the first time in two years. The news offers a slight reprieve to the beleaguered fishery beset by low numbers likely exacerbated by climate change. There was no such rebound for snow crab, however, and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game announced Friday that fishery will remain closed amid population declines. Scientists think that population decline was a result of two years of low sea ice cover and abnormally warm ocean temperatures due to climate change may have altered the ecosystem in a way that snow crab couldn’t survive.
