Then come to Salmon 101 on April 9. This all day symposium will feature speakers from the Northwest who have dedicated their careers to the survival of these wonderful fish. Hear the Native American perspective on this important species, how fishing can help save salmon, why we must continue to fight for the removal of the lower four Snake River dams, and how you can be a stronger advocate for this regional icon.

Paul VanDevelder – Author of the critically acclaimed book Coyote Warrior.
Chuck Hudson – Columbia River Inter Tribal Fish Commission
Nicole Cordan – Policy Director, Save Our Wild Salmon Coalition
Trey Carskadon – President, Northwest Sportfishing Industry Association
