Frequently Asked Questions


What does the CDA do?

We are a single issue organization that works to protect and enhance your rights and access to the dipnet fisheries in Alaska.

What are the challenges faced by the CDA?

The CDA works on a number of different issues. We are currently pursuing a lawsuit against the State of Alaska to restore dipnetters' rights to their fair share of the salmon in the Copper River. We also work to improve access to the fishing area, boat launch facilities, and road and bridge replacement, repair and maintenance. These are are all ongoing negotiations and battles. Your support is appreciated.

What can I do to help the cause?

Catch your own wild salmon! Become a member of the CDA. Call your legislator and make sure they know you are a dipnetter who expects to continue dipnetting for years to come. Donate to our legal fund.
