Since 1977, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game has conducted an annual mail survey to estimate sport fishing participation and harvests (fish kept) statewide and by Alaska fisheries, areas, regions, and species. Since 1990, catches (fish harvested plus fish released) have also been estimated. Detailed findings are presented for 1992. In 1992, 428,768 anglers took 1,848,022 household trips and fished 2,540,374 days to catch 5,993,865 fish and harvest 3,234,048 fish.
