Description:The commercial groundfish fisheries off Alaska had a total catch of 2.2 million tons (t) in 2015 (including catch in federal and state waters) (Fig. 3.1 and Table 1). This amount was approximately equal to the catch in 2014. Groundfish accounted for 80% of Alaska’s 2015 total catch, which was slightly less than typical because of high Pacific salmon catch (Table 1A). Notable increases in catch were observed in the Alaska pollock (particularly in the Gulf of Alaska) and Atka mackerel fisheries, while catch in the flatfish species complex saw a significant decrease in 2015.
