#SALMON ........in San Diego?!?
SAN DIEGO— A local angler with only enough time to make a few casts before heading to work connected with a lot more than the largemouth bass he was hoping for, and it’s generating a lot of chatter in the Southern California angling community

Gift link from Washington Post: A life-giving river in Alaska is running out of salmon
I’m very grateful for all the rain that we’re set to receive here in Western Washington over the next week. It’s been so dry that the stream levels are not high enough for the salmon to get very far.
This photo is one of the few salmon that made it up to the stream that follows the road in front of my house. There were only a handful a few weeks ago. I’ll keep you posted about what we see this coming week.

So I'm pretty concerned about the #salmon runs...or lack thereof...on Southern #VancouverIsland. Been checking creeks & rivers with some fellow volunteers over the past month & half. Very minimal returning salmon in areas where we used to see many in November. Water levels are still too low in many salmon bearing waterways. I'm hoping for more returns as waterways fill up. I always worry a lot when keystone species numbers go down.
Quadra Islanders want to save a popular patch of #wetland from development to bring back #coho #salmon, after their hundred-year absence.
Paul Puddy is a director with the #QuadraIsland Enhancement Society. He says there are other places around the village to develop, and the #watershed will come back to life if salmon are allowed to return.

#ClimateChange is transforming ecosystems around the world. As glaciers retreat in northern #BC and Alaska they are creating new habitat for #salmon while also attracting interest from mining companies.
A new study from #SFUBioSci professor Jonathan Moore maps out these emerging land use conflicts, identifies policy blind spots and key opportunities for stewardship. https://www.sfu.ca/sfunews/stories/2023/11/mining-industry-competing-with-salmon-for-rivers-created-by-disa.html #SFUScience #SFU #ecology #fisheries #conservation #aquaticecology #watershed
Part of a years-long study that was recently adopted by the #HaoomFisheries Society, a #NuuChahNulth led #fisheries org, to assess health of the river's #chinook #salmon stocks by tagging chinook with plastic bands. Tagging the #fish helps researchers identify individual salmon that have been previously counted and tagged, giving them a more accurate estimate of how many chinook enter the river and how long they stay there, explained project leader Keaton McCallum.

During an afternoon trip to #Edmonds, #Washington in the great #PacificNorthwest, I saw a public #art installation that I thought was pretty neat! The #salmon are windmills with bells that tinkle when the #wind blows strongly enough (which it did not, because it was a beautiful, mild #autumn day).
The ferry in the background is the #KingstonFerry. There were people #fishing off the dock, catching flounder, salmon, and perch. Others had their #crab pots down, and one guy caught some #shrimp!
I used some #salmon gifted to me by a native friend/brother from another mother & made some #KhoCaLoc - #Vietnamese spicy #DriedFish snack. You can use other types of fish too.
This is a longtime family favourite #food snack. It's been a long time since I've made some. It's like a spicy fish jerky. Packs well for outings.

Salmon exported from Norway are sub-standard.
For years now the farmed salmon exported to other countries, from Norway, has been of extremely poor quality.
Half rotten fish, bad smell, etc.
A check by the Norwegian health authorities showed that the producers were selling fish which had already died due to various reasons..

This article from 3 days ago describes some of the heartwarming dam removal going on after 2 decades of struggle to save #salmon in the #pnw thanks to a coalition of river advocates, including local tribes.

Today I went *inside* the #BonnevilleDam!
Huge turbines whistling round at 70rpm, lots of 1970s orange, and well-lit corridors for #salmon! (They apparently are afraid of the dark!)
Also, did you know that *human* fish counters count *all* the fish swimming up the fish ladder? They work two 8-hour shifts per day, with one 10-min break per hour. (?!?!?!) There is no graveyard shift because the salmon (our main fish of interest) don’t like to swim at night (see above).
Here's a story I've been following for 13 years.

@ianrosewrites Thanks for that Northwest Treaty Tribes piece re: #salmon, #6PPDquinone, and toxic tire dust. That topic came to our attn a few years back, but we'd not read anything recently, until seeing David Schmalz's #MontereyCountyWeekly 11/15/23 piece "What will #ClimateChange mean for steelhead #trout?" https://www.montereycountyweekly.com/opinion/mcnow_intro/what-will-climate-change-mean-for-steelhead-trout-it-depends/article_050b48c8-8415-11ee-97d5-772a4c4e3f97.html #EarthStewardship #tires #fisheries #coho #steelhead
Where Ohop Creek runs along Highway 7 in #Washington, cars shed 12 pounds of tire dust per year.
Some of that washes into Ohop Creek, which is salmon spawning habitat.
Tire dust contains the chemical 6PPD, which causes “urban runoff mortality syndrome” in #salmon (read: it kills them).
The Nisqually Indian Tribe has developed a filtration device that may be a stopgap to keep 6PPD out of spawning waters until a there's a more permanent solution.
https://nwtreatytribes.org/nisqually-tribes-system-shows-promise-in-fighting-threat-to-salmon/
While Northwest tribes were leading the effort to get regulators to deal with toxic tire dust and its effects on their salmon, the Nisqually people were also engineering a way to filter it out of stormwater.
If you want your grandchildren to know what a wild salmon is, the one most important thing you can do is support and empower Indigenous people who know those salmon, and how to protect them, better than anyone else in the world.

The reports and findings regarding the Norwegian farmed salmon is never ending.
Now, it turns out rotten and sick salmon is exported as "Superior", which is the best quality.

“I don’t know why they shut us down. We’re not the problem,” said Ronald Demientieff, an elder in Holy Cross. “You have to regulate us because they killed them in the ocean? We’ve been regulating our fish way before Fish and Game came to this place.”
“Nothing can replace the fish,” said Tessiana Paul, an administrator at the tribal government in Holy Cross, Alaska.
"They said significant cuts would risk sinking Area M fisheries and jeopardize local tax revenue that funds schools and other essential services."

"But salmon are notoriously difficult to study. They spawn in fresh water, then spend most of their lives far out in the Pacific, an area dubbed the “black box” because it’s so vast and poorly understood." —Max Graham for @grist

The Norwegian Embassy hit on the idea of boosting demand for salmon by promoting different methods on how to prepare it, including substituting cooked salmon in popular meat dishes. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/11/12/japan/norway-promoting-salmon/?utm_content=buffer6b0ae&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #salmon #fish #norway
Why are dead and dying seabirds washing up on our beaches in their hundreds?
"Millions of short-tailed shearwaters (Ardenna tenuirostis), commonly known as muttonbirds, return to southern Australia from the Arctic each spring – a round trip of up to 35,000km.Muttonbird wrecks have happened on rare occasions since time immemorial, but are becoming more common.The many ideas about what is causing wrecks range from storms and overfishing to plastic, blue-green algae and irradiated water from Fukushima."
"When muttonbird wrecks occur, the casualties are starving. These birds weigh only half their healthy body weight. The factors leading to this starvation start before they reach Australia."

“We’re a nation that put a man on the moon. We figured out how to take lead out of gasoline and still have our cars run,” EarthJustice attorney Elizabeth Forsyth told The Seattle Times for an article about a new federal lawsuit against tire manufacturers filed by West Coast fishing groups. “It would astound me that we couldn’t make a tire that doesn’t kill up to 100% of coho salmon returning to their natal streams.”
Everyone who cares about healthy Northwest ecosystems should be thanking the salmon protectors of the Yurok, S’Klallam and Puyallup people today, for successfully leading this campaign. Now they need sustained attention and support from the rest of us to keep regulators focused on salmon and river health.

Had my coffee with Shoshone Falls yesterday morning. These falls were described to me by Klickitat River Chief Wilbur Slockish, who once spread out a blanket here and listened for hours because the sound brought back boyhood memories of Celilo Falls before the US drowned them.

"One morning, I woke up to my dad’s panicked voice yelling, 'Get up, get up, get up!' He threw my bed aside, and he and my mom threw gunnysacks full of fish into the hole, along with a net covered in fish scales.
