Are you a wanted fisherman?

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game recently posted its 2026 commercial salmon fishing outlook for Bristol Bay. It's loaded with interesting notes, including Alaska Wildlife Troopers enforcement priorities.

This one stood out to me:

Fishermen who failed to appear for scheduled court hearings do have outstanding arrest warrants issued by the court. Absconders will be arrested and remanded to jails in either Dillingham or King Salmon, which will result in substantial loss of fishing time. Wildlife Troopers encourage fishermen to address any outstanding arrest warrants.

Y'all been warned!
