The red king crab fishery is currently being operated according to the “three S’s”— size, sex and season. Only male crabs of a certain size may be harvested, and fishing is not allowed during mating and molting periods. These measures help to ensure that crabs are able to reproduce and replace the ones that are being harvested. Moreover, fishermen must install escape panels and rings on their pots to prevent ghost fishing (when lost pots continue to capture and kill species) and to reduce bycatch.
