Subsistence Management Regulations for Public Lands in Alaska—2027–28 and 2028–29 Subsistence Taking of Fish and Shellfish Regulations

This proposal updates Alaska's hunting and fishing rules for the next two years, specifically focusing on what foods people can take from public lands and waters for their own use rather than for sale. The changes affect Alaska residents who rely on fishing and hunting to feed their families, including Alaska Native communities who depend heavily on these traditional food sources. The rules matter because they determine whether people can legally catch or hunt specific animals and fish, how many they can take, and during what times of year, which directly impacts food security and cultural practices for many Alaskans.
