Salmon Fishing
from: Kyle BesserSalmon fishing is one of the most popular types of sport fishing worldwide. Fishing for salmon is popular with all types of fishermen and women from the very young to older, more experienced anglers. The variety of salmon, their excellent fight and extreme size make them an ideal sports fish in almost all northern waterways in both fresh water and salt water. Salmon are ideal for fishing from boats, from the shore, and even in net fishing.
Another benefit to salmon fishing is the versatility of the meat from the salmon. Salmon can be baked, canned, barbecued, planked and even fried. Salmon is a staple in many diets and in national dishes of such diverse countries as Canada, Japan and the Scandinavian countries. French cuisine also features salmon in many different forms. Salmon is a truly international food.
Unlike many other types of fishing, salmon fishing does not require a huge amount of expensive salmon fishing equipment. A sturdy salmon fishing rod and reel, a jig or hook system that can easily be purchased pre-made and some salmon fishing lures are all that is required to spend a day fishing off the coast for salmon. Add some good planning and a bit of luck for a successful day of salmon fishing.
The same salmon fishing techniques that are used for fresh water fish varieties such as bass and trout can be used for fishing salmon. It is not uncommon to use fly fishing techniques in the spring, worms and salmon fishing lures in the summer, and even spinning and netting in the fall or winter months.
In all areas that salmon fishing has been a sport and traditional food gathering method, fishing and harvesting is controlled to prevent overfishing and possible extinction of these remarkable species of fish. In some countries the salmon run or return to the spawning streams has become dramatically decreased and there is a worldwide effort to maintain the numbers and salmon species population.
Salmon farms have sprung up along the northern coastal areas that are farming or raising domestic salmon to meet the world's growing need for fish and fish products. Salmon are a natural type of aquaculture species due to the freshwater and saltwater varieties available. While salmon fishing is not part of salmon farming, the use of fish farms helps to preserve the wild, natural stocks that provide the fishing population for sports fishermen and anglers worldwide.
Fishermen and women may travel to different countries to experience the opportunities of salmon fishing in different waterways and with different types of salmon fishing tackle and salmon fishing bait. Some of the most common salmon fishing hot spots worldwide include:
*Alaska, United States
*British Columbia, Canada
*Washington State, United States
*Oregon, United States
*California, United States
*Scotland
*Estonia and Latvia
*Scandinavia
*Japan
