Jay Sterne is the new fisheries aide for U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska.
Sterne takes the position previously held by Stefanie Moreland, who left in August to become fisheries adviser to Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell.
A press release today from Murkowski's office describes Sterne as "a 20-year veteran of fisheries and Arctic policy discussions."
Prior to Moreland, Arne Fuglvog was fisheries aide to Murkowski.
Fuglvog resigned from the job after admitting to a federal fisheries violation during his days as a commercial fisherman. He served five months in prison this year for the offense.
By way of background, Deckboss knows only a couple of things about Sterne.
In years past, he was involved in lobbying for Prowler Fisheries, a prominent commercial fishing company that belonged to the late John Winther of Petersburg.
And Sterne, you might recall, was among friends who wrote letters asking the judge to take Fuglvog's character and public service into consideration at his sentencing.

There is millions of dollars to be made in the Alaska fisheries, that's why the biggies form a tight circle.
