Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
Safeway is having a sale that ends today!
I've haven't tasted a wild silver salmon in ages!
Whoooo hooooo!
How could they do this?
What an awful ignorance!
"OOPS! We meant that it wasn't farm raised!"
I hope!
Geesh!

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
$2.79 per pound. Wow!
Lets see how this works out.
Boat-$28K
Tow Vehicle-$30K
Misc tackle & gear-$2K
Watching my wife nail 5 chinook and 1 silver over the last two weekends-PRICELESS

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
Some of the fish may be" wild" because they had a fully intact adipose fin. All of the Copper river silvers I cut up had adipose fins.

Hey Jennie, what are all the little arrows pointing in the flesh of the steak in the pic? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
The arrows are actually some type of seasoning to make the fish look more appetising to the consumer.

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
Oh, Bill and I were looking at it and pointing out that it didn't even look like silvers... more like chinook.
You know, the coffee in the morning routine... Chinook, or silver? Silver, or chinook? Trout, or bass?
Fish flesh identification 101.

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
For those of you that read it, STS (Salmon Trout Steelheader) had an interesting article on this same topic in the current issue, p10. The author ran into a fresh wild steelhead at the Pike Place Fish market in Seattle which just goes to show its more than just an isolated problem.

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
It is the same picture no matter the kind of salmon. I think it is either farm raised chinook or maybe atlantic because of the thickness and color.

Huh, so that's seasoning. [img]images/icons/blush.gif[/img]
Lured In, the author who wrote that article is famous and he's on this board, too! [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
The local media in Seattle was notified of the Pike Street Market information months ago and they refused to cover it. I'll bet at least a few of them went down there and bought the fish when they found out.

Re: Last day! Get your wild silver salmon here!
Here are a couple links to press releases on ODFW's site from July and August. You may have missed that ODFW is going to sell 40,000 Silvers on the open market. That is more than the Tribal fisheries are expected to harvest with gill nets.
On another note, ODFW is supposed to give away 140,000 Silvers to needy families. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
http://www.dfw.state.or.us/public/Ne...71801dnews.htm
You may have missed this part too. During the last commercial gill net fishery, they were expected to take roughly 200-400 Sturgeon. How do they figure these numbers out anyway...crystal ball or ougi board? Good thing the season is closed. [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
