    A catch of this size would crush the current record of 44.3 million
    sockeye in 1995.

    Total BB processing capacity for the season is around 51 Million fish according to a 2019 ADFG study. That doesn't factor in a bottle neck of 2.54 Million fish maximum daily processing.

    Will be interesting to see if the processors commit resources to stretch capacity to deal with the 62 Million fish.
