Alaska Groundfish Industry Catch Statistics

There are many types of groundfish that reside on Alaska's ocean floor including species such as sablefish (black cod), Alaska pollock, Pacific cod, and several flatfish including yellowfin sole, rock sole, and Atlantic flounder (also known as turbot).

Alaska's groundfish industry has been very healthy in recent years. Alaska fishermen caught 1,317,839 metric tons of pollock in 2001, up from 1,020,270 in 2000 and prices actually went up by 10%.  Additionally, Alaska pollock roe production was 25,000 tons in 2001, nearly a 40% increase over 2000. This has made it a good time to be in the pollock fishing business, especially in the Bering Sea. 

Alaska's blackcod fishermen have experienced some down times in recent years. In 2001, they landed 26,348,302 pounds and got paid over $3.00 per pound.  Mostly due to the IFQ system, Alaska's blackcod fishermen were able to maintain these very high prices. 

Many Alaskans believe and hope that plentiful groundfish will provide a solid foundation for the future of the state's fishing industry.
