The 2015 Prince William Sound (PWS) sport, personal use, and subsistence shrimp seasons closed by regulation at 11:59 p.m., Tuesday, September 15, 2015. All PWS shrimp permits must be returned to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game no later than October 15.
Shrimp permits are self-addressed and can be folded, stamped and mailed, or personally delivered to department offices. Permits may also be scanned and emailed to dfg.pws.shrimp@alaska.gov. Permits must be returned even if the permit holder did not fish. The prompt return of all permits is necessary to manage this resource.
Please contact Mike Thalhauser in Anchorage at 267-2186 with any questions regarding the PWS sport shrimp fisheries, or Maria Wessel in Cordova at 424-3212 with any questions regards the PWS subsistence or personal use shrimp fisheries.
