(Adapted from author's abstract.) The 1989 catch and escapement statistics for all Alaska salmon species in the Copper River, Bering River, and Prince William Sound areas are presented. Catch information was compiled from commerial fish tickets, subsistence and personal use fish permits, and a postal survey of sport fishermen. Escapement data were taken from aerial and ground surveys, side scan sonar counts, and weir counts. Stratified systematic samples of age, sex, length, and weight were collected from salmon catches and escapements using standard sampling techniques for each select species, gear type, and fishing district.
