Salmon are anadromous fish, meaning they're born in freshwater, migrate to the ocean to grow, and return to freshwater to spawn. This incredible journey, coupled with their fighting ability and delicious flavor, makes them a highly sought-after species for anglers. Several species of salmon exist, each with its unique characteristics and distribution, including Chinook (King), Coho (Silver), Sockeye (Red), Pink (Humpy), and Chum (Dog) salmon. Salmon are found in both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and their spawning runs attract anglers to rivers and streams across North America, from Alaska to the Great Lakes.
