 Salmon Save The Bay
Salmon is one of the most well-known endangered species that depends on the San Francisco Bay.
Young salmon feed on terrestrial and aquatic insects, and aquatic invertebrates, such as crabs or crayfish.
Because salmon live in so many different ecosystems throughout their lives—streams, the Bay, and the ocean—and because they require very specific conditions to survive and reproduce—shady streams, cool water, and protected wetlands—salmon are called an indicator species.

 Friends of Blue Hill call for restraint on Maine’s salmon farms
Salmon farming is big business in Maine, generating approximately 90 percent of the revenues of the $64 million aquaculture industry, according to the state’s Department of Marine Resources (DMR).
The aquaculture industry is poised for growth, but salmon farmers are feeling the pinch as some environmental groups call for increased monitoring of fish farms, stricter regulations, and in some cases, a moratorium on new salmon farms.
Salmon farming is the most intrusive type of aquaculture because of the size of the pens, noise and daily boat traffic that ser-vices the farm, Eley said.

Salmon smolts spend a year or so in estuaries, the area where stream meets ocean, putting on more than half of their eventual weight before heading out to sea.
The degradation of estuarial habitat around Shilshole and Salmon Bay is evident; it's a hard edge of houses, condominiums, docks and pilings with little or no vegetation in the tideland beneath, simply mud and barnacled rock.
I think the salmon need a habitat to live in but making the home owners be restricted from building is rediculous.

He said even if identifiable salmon were found in a wild salmon river, it might well be as much as two years after the escape, far too late to allow for any correction to prevent more escapes.
And while salmon growers have opposed farm-specific marking since the idea was introduced, they are now asking for language in the Army Corps permit that will allow the marking issue to be reassessed in a few years.
The immediate advantage is that mussels, unlike salmon, don’t use feed added to the marine environment, are grown from seed stock produced by local wild mussels, don’t interfere with an endangered species, and can’t really escape from the farm, other than by falling off the rope.

 2006 Bristol Bay Sockeye Salmon Forecast - Commercial Fisheries - Alaska Department of Fish and Game
The forecast for the sockeye salmon run to Bristol Bay in 2006 is the sum of individual predictions for nine river systems (Kvichak, Alagnak, Naknek, Egegik, Ugashik, Wood, Igushik, Nushagak-Mulchatna, and Togiak) and four age classes (ages 1.2, 1.3, 2.2, and 2.3, plus ages 0.3 and 1.4 for Nushagak River).
The expected escapement to the Alagnak River was forecast to be 2.0 million sockeye salmon based on the Alagnak River run developing as forecast and the commercial fisheries in Bristol Bay being managed similar to recent years.
The forecasted total run of 32.7 sockeye salmon is expected to be comprised of 13.76 million age 1.3 fish (42%) followed by 8.86 million age 1.2 fish (27%), 5.86 million age 2.2 fish (18%), 3.96 million age 2.3 fish (12%) and 0.29 million age 0.3 and age 1.4 fish (1%).

TODAY, BRISTOL BAY is widely known as having the world's most plentiful stocks of wild sockeye (red) salmon, and the Naknek River system that flows out of Katmai National Park has long been known as one of the primary contributors to the bay's salmon stocks.
Commercial fisheries interests, not surprisingly, were quick to respond to the area's abundant salmon populations, and in order to preserve the salmon's long-term abundance, government scientists and regulators have had a long-term management presence in the Naknek drainage.
By the mid-1880s, the remarkable Bristol Bay salmon resource was becoming widely recognized, and in the 1890s salteries and canneries were located along the Naknek River, just west of the present park boundaries.

 The Mystery of the Disappearing Sacramento River Salmon : Indybay
Tuesday Dec 12th, 2006 4:49 PM State and federal scientists, as they finish doing salmon carcass surveys on the Sacramento, American and Feather rivers this fall, will be analyzing why this year's salmon returns were so poor as compared with their pre-season ocean abundance estimates.
In a year where salmon were supposed to be bountiful in both the ocean and river fisheries, this has been one of the poorest fishing seasons on record on the Sacramento River and its tributaries.
This was in spite of a forecasted ocean abundance of Central Valley stocks in 2006 of 632,482 fish, based on a return of age-2 fish (jacks and jills) in the fall of 2005.

 DFG Recommends No Action On Bay Commercial Salmon Fishery, Dan Bacher, Fish Sniffer Online
The commercial salmon fishery that once flourished in the San Francisco Bay-Delta estuary was closed by the State Legislature in the 1950s, due to a steady decline in salmon populations over decades.
The worth of sport caught salmon on the Sacramento is $545 to $1100 per fish, according to a State Economic Impact Report conducted by Madalene M. Ranson, economist for the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service.
In a time of declining marine resources and ongoing attempts to restore wild stocks of California salmon, the proposal for putting 10 commercial boats in San Francisco Bay in the height of the bay sportfishing season is a very bad idea that shows a lack of common sense.
