location pls?

Thank you so much for showing your process and sharing the salmon story. This is one of my favorite videos and I return to watch it quite often. Mvto

Great work

Thank you

That's a lot of work to ensure that only 10% makes it back

Swamp land make them into a pond too regulate the water flowing down a creek keep fish from dieing off no flow no oxygen in creek 😊 thay cannot live if no food for them in creek 😊

This is amazing

when will the salmon be self sustaining? These salmon hatcheries have been going on for decades. I don't see hatcheries for other fish like bass, catfish, carp, pike, pumpkin fish, chud etc... if this species of fish (salmon) are to useless to survive on their own then let them die out and spend the money on the homeless. Let nature take its course - salmon seem to be a very weak fish. Trout seem weak too. Darwin's theory is real. Close the hatcheries and give the money to the homeless.

Great job

I have sack fry living in me.

Will the methow ever open back up for steelhead fishing?

how do you keep away grizzly bears

That's sound science using wild broodstock but are you synching the hatchery smolts to return the same time as the wild fish? This is important for integrating them into the wild spawning population.

Once you broodstock the wild fish into hatchery fish you can let those first generation surplus adults spawn in the wild with the rest of the Chinook as long as you time them to return at the same time as wild Chinook,and don't increase the temperatures in the rearing ponds.

I dont know how many people stop to say something about this fish but that is the perfect image of a fish when i think of a fish the perfect fish

Wild caughts are greater than this

Nice demonstration 😊

Id love to know how you clean ponds when they are nail size

Loved the model so clever .. some really small picky comments ... 1/ paint the fins as fins ... there is no orange meat in them .. 2/ Make the orange part lift off too and show the skeleton to complete the biology lesson. 😊

Amazing seeing the machinery that runs this factory ....

Simply stunning. And as someone who grew up being able to see the Columbia River from my back yard in Southeast Washington, the story of the Salmon your grandmother told certainly seems very relevant today!

I learned how to make bags, at a pow wow camp I went to, as a teenager. I have a small bag I started 20 years ago, but it is unfinished, because I forgot how to finish it!

No more nets!

How much days take egg into fish

Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed it.

😱baby fish

this is awesome

For the first time i have seen such an amazing teaching method, i am truly impressed by the way of teaching here,

Thank you for the video

It's a shame we destroy their natural way of spawning, hope we're able to keep them around, alot don't realize that if we destroy our natural environment, man is soon to follow, 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Why are you talking to us like we're 5 year olds? No wonder you have no viewers or subscribers.

Useful video 👍

This is a absolutely wonderful

This is absulutly amazing

Love Live The Kings !!! 🦾🐟🙏🏻🖤🌲

Thank you guys.

Folks it’s not about more hatcheries. In case many of don’t really notice. Many hatcheries are nolonger in use. Do to government budget cuts. Or many hatcheries no longer raise fish to the hatcheries full capacity. Take for example steelhead hatcheries in the SW Wa area. Each hatchery would release smolts by the hundreds of thousands. Modern smolt releases are cut now by 2 thirds. So more hatcheries are not the real solution. Washington states fishing license sales have fallen drastically because of the very low adult returns any more. Less adults equates less success for time spent trying to catch a adult salmon or steelhead. So the state suffers with poor license sales. See what’s happening here? One of the big issues is most politicians in Washington state don’t fish. They really don’t care what so ever about fish management. So it’s not even on any politician’s agenda. I’m surprised any of the state’s hatcheries get any funding at all.

Shouldn’t the spawned out salmon be returned to the river to boost nitrogen levels?

Great job on producing good natural fish. Now let us all buy our licenses and fish rod and reel. Stop the drift nets and illegal fishing practices.

Thank you! Let’s help stop dams!

Wow

Ahh man we just have to take down the dams they are outdated. We wouldn’t have to put money so much money into stocking and the fish populations would grow drastically for wild salmon

When I was there 2 years ago, the lady we talked to there, said they were finding cataracts in the coho smolts as they were going out of the hatchery and didn’t know why.... What’s the latest in that development?

awesome, thanks for your hard work! Now mabey we can up the production on other hatcheries to have more fish with good practices like you guys have! greetings from PDX

Great video! We need more hatcheries thank you for everything you guys do for the fish and for the sportsman so they have a chance to catch fish

Great informational video for all ages. Good job, both of you!

Nicely done and narrated!!

Thanks for the video

Very nice video! Thank you!!
