OMFG! So that is where all the salmon the DFO were talkin about, went. Never seen that. That is one of the most saddest fishing videos ever! :'(
I wonder what kind they are. Atlantic Salmon.

Well there seems to be 2 camps - those that believe global  warming  is happening and  those who are in power who don't.

Anyone notice that Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa (which has had snow up top for the last 10,000 years) has actually melted.

And the 4 year drought in Australia...etc

I wish more people rode bicycles and short drifted ;)

Why is that clip  "sad"?  Those fish may have spawned and even if they haven't imagine the nutrients they will bring to that tiny creek.  I don't think you are seeing anything unnatural or bad there. 

First thing to consider is that the tape came from alaska where most rivers and runs support much larger returns.  I bet that is just a tiny feeder creek and the main river is so choked with those humpies that some get forced up those small tribs just to find a spot to spawn...I bet its a good sign when the fish are forced into water that skinny. 

While I havent seen the Adams first hand, on years with good returns, I have heard storys of the whole river being red with sockeye...wouldnt surprise me if you would see the same sort of thing there.

Weve got to do something about grabbing its getting out of control, we need to teach people a proper way to fish.

Thats second clip is just plain ignorance...friggin tourist with a camcorder.  Unfortunately though, people are coming to fish the vedder with no better  knowledge or respect for the fish than that clown (we call them flossers).
