Adak’s halibut arrives fresh in Boston faster than anywhere else in the state of Alaska

Adak’s halibut arrives fresh in Boston faster than anywhere else in the state of Alaska, according to a small boat fisherman who said it to the East Coast within five days. “Nobody else in the state of Alaska can touch that,” said fisherman Steve Stark. Even with the big Icicle plant’s surprise closure in April, commercial fishing continues on a smaller scale in Adak, according to Stark, captain of the 50-foot fishing boat Sellah which was in Unalaska early this week for supplies and
repairs and halibut fishing in a different quota area. ontinued@dutchharborfisherman
