Fang Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) check out the close up at about 1:00 mark. Sure looks like a chinook salmon to me. Edited March 22, 2009 by Fang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solopaddler Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Yeah I stop by there occasionally for a look see when I'm down in PA. There's definitely no salmon there it's all steelhead. Trout Run is where PA collects their eggs for their stocking program. (Unfortunately 'cause they're the grossest, mangiest strain of mutts I've ever seen ). Here's a couple of pic's I snapped last fall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvio Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I almost my pants the first time I saw videos of trout run a few years ago. Its a shame drifter is right the ganny use to get a huge run of steelhead when I was still in Bagdad. For the people that believe there salmon there not Erie doesn't support a great salmon fishery it does however support an amazing steelhead fishery especially state side. that video there is an example of when a government runs there fishery the way its supposed to and puts back the money they collected from licences and tags and other fishing related products. Also they don’t spend 5 million dollars trying to introduce a new strain of fish especially when all the other salmon and trout strains are doing relatively poorly.
