FishTix

Weighed. Signed.
Filed. At sea.

Fish tickets for Alaska salmon, written at the rail by the captain, the tender and QC, and filed with ADF&G eLandings under the cannery's own login.

E-signatures approved by ADF&G. Works with no signal. Bristol Bay pilot, summer 2027.

The cannery office's Today page: today's and the season's pounds, three rejected tickets with the State's reason and a Send again button, the last fourteen days as a chart, and the fleet with each tender's status.
The tender's Deck on an iPad: TIDE FINCH being weighed at port, starboard open, three boats coming in with CEDAR ROOK just sent, and three tanks with room left.

Today, a fish ticket takes days.

This is how it still gets written on most tenders, delivery after delivery.

  • Keyed in by hand.The clerk asks every boat the same questions at the rail.
  • QC temps on a paper card.Then the clerk types them in again.
  • Signed across the rail.Someone climbs over, at midnight, in the current.
  • The drive goes ashore days later.Until then, the office sees nothing.
  • Unsigned tickets go back out.In a manila envelope, to chase the boat down.

How a delivery goes with FishTix.

Five steps from the grounds to the State, each written by the person who knows it, on their own device.

  1. 1

    The captain sends the trip from the grounds.

    Tender, stat area, chill, bled or whole. Last trip's answers are already filled in, so it takes about twenty seconds, and it's on the tender's iPad before they tie up.

    The captain's home screen after sending the trip: PATIENT TIDE knows you're coming, with the stat area, chill and condition, and the ticket's progress.
  2. 2

    The tender weighs, and the captain watches.

    Every lift goes straight onto the ticket on the iPad. Tare and bag count take care of themselves, and each lift lands on the captain's phone a moment later.

    Weighing on the tender's iPad: the running total, the next bag's gross, the species, the number pad and the lifts so far.
    The captain's phone during weighing: the lifts landing one by one and the running total, marked Live.
  3. 3

    QC probes on their own phone.

    Each temp goes on the ticket as it's taken, and the chill temp works itself out. No card, nothing to retype.

    QC's phone: the temps taken so far, the chill temp, and the number pad for the next fish.
  4. 4

    Both sign on their own device.

    The tender on the iPad, the captain on their own phone. Nobody climbs across for a signature, and the ticket prints if anyone wants paper.

    The captain's phone turned sideways, a signature drawn in the box.
  5. 5

    Filed with eLandings, and the cannery sees it live.

    The ticket files under the cannery's own login as soon as the tender has signal. The office watches every tender and every ticket as it happens.

    The cannery office's Today page: today's and the season's pounds, what's afloat, tickets that need attention, and the fleet.

Filed with eLandings, the way the State wants it.

FishTix works alongside eLandings, not instead of it. Every field and every check comes from the State's own rules, so the ticket matches what tLandings would write, and every request and reply is kept word for word.

  • E-signatures, approved. ADF&G has approved e-signatures on FishTix tickets. Every ticket still prints, identical in content, for anyone who wants paper.
  • Your login, your numbers. Each cannery files under its own login and its own ticket number blocks. FishTix never files as itself.
  • Made for salmon. Built around salmon deliveries to tenders, start to finish.
The printed fish ticket as FishTix renders it: the ADF&G salmon ticket layout with the fish ticket number E26 102412, vessel, permit, tender, dates, the species lines with their counts and post-tare weights, both signatures, and the landing report id.
AcceptedThe ticket as it prints, numbered by the State at filing.Filing with the State since September 2026, starting on its training system.
