Section 5.01.410. Fishing seasons.

	(a)  In the Alaska Peninsula Area, salmon may be taken at any time, except  
		(1) in those districts and sections open to commercial salmon fishing, a commercial salmon fishing permit holder may not subsistence fish for salmon during the 24 hours before a commercial salmon fishing period or the 12 hours following the closure of a commercial salmon fishing period; however, a commercial salmon fishing permit holder may choose to subsistence fish instead of commercial fish for salmon during a commercial salmon fishing period;  
		(2) as otherwise specified on a subsistence fishing permit; and  
		(3) in the waters closed to subsistence fishing for salmon specified in 5 AAC 01.425.  
	(b)  Fish, other than salmon, rainbow trout, and steelhead trout, may be taken at any time unless restricted under the terms of a subsistence fishing permit. Rainbow trout and steelhead trout, taken incidentally in other subsistence finfish net fisheries or through the ice, are lawfully taken and may be retained for subsistence purposes.
