THE LESSER SALMON.
There Are Several Grades From King
Sock -eye Down.
While the sock -eye is the aristo-
crat of the salmon tribe, he is by no
means the only source of profit to the
Pacific Coast fishermen,
The next variety in grade of value
is the Coho, a trim, silver -scaled fish,
averaging ten pounds, andrunning
as high as 20. It has a red flesh,
but is coarser grained and has larger
bones than the Sock -eye. The Collo
is a fall fish, running to the spawn-
ing grounds a couple of weeks later
than the Sock -eye. Their spawning
grounds are usually fresh water
streams below an inland lake.
The Hump -back , is a five -pound
fish of similar 1 '.bit to the Sock -eye,
excepting 'that it spawns, in very
small streams close to the sea. It is
very prolific, and in the seasons of
their run 'the streams are frequently
choked with fish struggling against
each other and battling against rocks,
cascades and barriers. Their flesh is
light-colored and soft, and they spoil
at-
quickiy on being taken from the wat-
er. For "this reason they have not
been packed much as a food product,
but in the past three years there has
been an increasing demand for this
cheaper class of fish.
The Dog salmon is a .coarse pink
fishof uniform size, ten to twelve
pounds. It is the lowest grade in
market value and is tauten principal-
l'y for salting. It runs to spawn
about,' the same time as the Hump-
back.
The Steel -head salmon which is
frequently, caught- in Sock -eye season,
is really a salmon trout. They are
nearly always put in cold storage and.
sold as' fresh fish, being held as the 1
best flavored of all the varieties for
table use.
