Chinook fishing in the saltchuck (Howe Sound) is better this year than it has been for a few years.

Canned Steelhead!  Report in the news last night that the goods inside the can may be from out of country but...  the canning is done in Canada so then it can be a product of Canada!  Interesting cuz I guess that happens with a number of vegetables and fruits!

Usually the large comercial fishing operation involves a ships with cannery on board.  The fish gets canned right on the ship so all that the ship comes back with are canned fish. The non-usseable parts of the fish gets dump on the ocean and becomes food for other fish, etc. This saves money on having to freeze the fish and managing the waste product of canning if its done on shore. This is why a lot of canned fish does not say the country where it was canned. ;)

There seems to be a lot of steelhead products that are farmed in Chile and shipped here.
