This final report documents subsistence harvest estimates for Pacific salmon in the Kuskokwim Fisheries Management Area for 2004, on the basis of surveys in 30 communities along the Kuskokwim River and Kuskokwim Bay, including Nelson Island. Compared to 2003 harvest estimates, harvests increased, with the exception of sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka, demonstrating again the importance of salmon for subsistence in this area. In Bethel, nonsalmon fish comprised about 18% of total fish harvested for subsistence. This salmon harvest monitoring research continues to be critical for fisheries managers for their use in planning for adequate salmon escapement and providing continued uses of salmon for subsistence purposes.
