Alaska fishing quotas for 2025 and 2026 are now final

The US government has set the final fishing limits for groundfish in the Gulf of Alaska for 2025 and 2026. This means commercial fishing boats know exactly how much of each fish species they can catch for the next two years.

Every year, the government sets limits on how much fish can be caught to prevent overfishing. These annual decisions directly affect the income of fishing fleets and the seafood supply. The finalization of these numbers allows fishing companies to plan their operations and investments with certainty for the upcoming seasons.
