Baker Lake Sockeye Numbers Now Up To 7,386

Sockeye fishing at Baker Lake has slowed the past week though PSE has trucked additional fish to the lake. As of July 27th there have been 7,386 sockeye trucked to the lake and 14,436have been trapped in the Baker River. We have been hearing of better fishing in the upper portion of the lake recently.

Why fishing has been slower, I think we can only guess why it has been such. A number of our regular sockeye fisherman that are consistant producers have seen very poor fishing recently. Hopefully it will turn around!
