That is hysterical.  Didn't anyone have a net?  What was the story about the flood?  Dominick

Dom, here in northwest Washington it is normal for low lying areas to flood this time of year and those fish would be rotten old chum crossing the road. Your dog wouldn't eat that stuff.

  BTW, the next time you see "keta" smoked salmon, that's what you're getting, junk Chum. Nobody would buy smoked chum salmon, so some brilliant marketer called it keta, and now those that don't know any better, think they're eating the finest, when it's actually mostly used for cat food.

Dom they begged me for a net but I just would not give it to them.  Besides what would we have done if they caught one?  We wold all probably be in jail.    At least the salmon still had the advantage!

I really like smoked chum salmon when it is taken out of saltwater and taken cared of carefully. It has a drker flesh that is less "salmony"

Actually it came from the Keta River in SE Alaska (Misty Fjords NM)where I spent a lot of time steelhead fishing and I had the IGFA 6kg record chum salmon for many years.

Ah... I knew there was a perfectly logical explanation.  Now there is a name that makes alot of sense.

Quite agree-lower fat Salmon takes smoke quite well if a careful person is doing the processing.

BTW, the next time you see "keta" smoked salmon, that's what you're getting, junk Chum. Nobody would buy smoked chum salmon, so some brilliant marketer called it keta, and now those that don't know any better, think they're eating the finest, when it's actually mostly used for cat food.

Nothing could be further from the truth keta is the scientific name and comes from the Evenki language of Eastern Siberia via Russian.

FWIW-Last Saturday I was on a local fish sales dock-frozen Chums were selling for $15/each and business was brisk.
