The Pacific salmon swim into streams from northern California to Alaska.  Atlantic salmon enter streams
from Labrador to New York.  Pacific salmon return to spawn at the same age and die, while Atlantic
salmon may spawn several times in their lifetime.

Salmon are large, powerful fish.  They swim long distances just to reach their spawning destinations.  
Once they get into the streams, they have many obstacles to overcome.  There are some areas where
you can see fish almost completely out of the water trying to pass shallow, gravel areas.  They swim up
over many small dams that look impossible to pass, but they continue to pass by these areas with ease.  


Salmon, Trout Fishing
Salmon
Salmon spend their adult life at sea or in the Great Lakes or large inland lakes, but they return to
freshwater streams to spawn.  Salmon return to the same spawning site where their life began.  It’s quite
amazing that these fish can travel thousands of miles, at times, to find the exact stream where their life
started.  There are 5 species of Pacific salmon called Chinook, coho, pink, sockeye, and chum.
