Mili Vukich is a second generation drift gillnetter from Naknek, Alaska (F/V Nexus). She’s passionate about the Bristol Bay sockeye salmon run and seeing the fishery flourish economically, environmentally, and socially. She’s pursuing other fisheries, and most recently has started a direct marketing company with her man, Mike.
