The harvest by all commercial sectors last season was WELL below 80,000.
The harvest by the recreational sector was in excess of 200,000.

These numbers are landed. It doesn't take into account all the chinook (plus steelhead) that get taken in the sockeye fisheries and then tossed back to feed the crabs. Those ones "never happened".......
