Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Observations on Salmons and Trout in Alaska To assist in the solution of various problems, it was deemed desir able in connection with the Alaska salmon investigation of 1903 to establish shore stations. The work at these stations was to comprise not only the study of the habits of the salmon in fresh waters and adja cent bays, but, in addition, a reconnaissance of all the neighboring basins with reference to available hatchery sites, observation of the methods employed in taking fish for the canneries, an inquiry into the sea habitat and the factors influencing the return of the adult fish, an inquiry into the efficiency of the hatcheries then operated, and a gen eral study of the biological features of territory immediately adj acent to the stations. The facilities offered by the establishments of the Alaska Packers' Association at Loring and at Karluk determined the adoption of the Naha and Karluk rivers as localities for this work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Habits of the Salmon Perhaps it is unnecessary for me to offer any elaborate excuse for coming forward with another book about salmon. Of all the fish that fall victims to our skill, salmon are the most interesting by reason of their size, strength, and gameness, the difficulty of their capture, and the romantic scenery of the districts in which, during their periodical returns to fresh water, we have to seek them. Nor, in view of its gastronomic excellence, its rapid growth and great fertility, will the economist cease to remind us that the salmon is an important article of food, and of great commercial value.

Download or read book Alaska s Fishery Resources the Pink Salmon Classic Reprint written by Jack E. Bailey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-24 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska's Fishery Resources, the Pink Salmon Pink salmon have the shortest and simplest life his tory of any Pacific salmon. Because they have a 2-year life cycle and return to their native streams to spawn, two genetically distinct lines occur in each stream. The lines are called even or odd-year on the basis of the year in which the adults spawn. Differences in the num ber and in the size of the fish in the two lines have been the subject of speculation for many years. In some areas, only one line spawns in significant numbers, leaving fish erman with few or no fish in an off year. For example, Although several attempts have been made to trans plant pink salmon to waters outside their natural range, no new important fishery has been established. The United States planted them in rivers in Maine, the Rus sians in tributaries of the Barents and White Seas of northern Europe, and the Canadians in tributaries to Hudson Bay and in rivers in the Maritime Provinces of eastern Canada. None of these efforts resulted in runs that survived more than a few cycles. Although pink salmon do not usually complete their life cycle in fresh water, an accidental release of several hundred fry resulted in a population that perpetuated itself for a few cycles in Lake Superior.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Salmon Fisheries of the Pacific Coast In most places the flesh is of a deep salmon red, but in certain places, notably southeast Alaska, Bristol Bay, Puget Sound, and British Columbia, many of the fish, the proportion being sometimes as much as one-third of the catch, have white flesh. A few examples have been taken with one side of the body red and the other white, while some are found with mottled flesh. No reasonable explanation of this phenomenon has yet been given.

Book excerpt: PNBA BESTSELLER • “A powerful and inspiring story. Guido Rahr’s mission to save the wild Pacific salmon leads him into adventures that make for a breathtakingly exciting read.”—Ian Frazier, author of Travels in Siberia Editors’ Choice: The New York Times Book Review • Outside Magazine • National Book Review • Forbes In the tradition of Mountains Beyond Mountains and The Orchid Thief, Stronghold is Tucker Malarkey’s eye-opening account of one of the world’s greatest fly fishermen and his crusade to protect the world’s last bastion of wild salmon. From a young age, Guido Rahr was a misfit among his family and classmates, preferring to spend his time in the natural world. When the salmon runs of the Pacific Northwest began to decline, Guido was one of the few who understood why. As dams, industry, and climate change degraded the homes of these magnificent fish, Rahr saw that the salmon of the Pacific Rim were destined to go the way of their Atlantic brethren: near extinction. An improbable and inspiring story, Stronghold takes us on a wild adventure, from Oregon to Alaska to one of the world’s last remaining salmon strongholds in the Russian Far East, a landscape of ecological richness and diversity that is rapidly being developed for oil, gas, minerals, and timber. Along the way, Rahr contends with scientists, conservationists, Russian oligarchs, corrupt officials, and unexpected allies in an attempt to secure a stronghold for the endangered salmon, an extraordinary keystone species whose demise would reverberate across the planet. Tucker Malarkey, who joins Rahr in the Russian wilderness, has written a clarion call for a sustainable future, a remarkable work of natural history, and a riveting account of a species whose future is closely linked to our own. Praise for Stronghold “This book isn’t just about fish, it’s about life itself and the fragile unseen threads that connect all creatures across this beleaguered orb we call home. Guido Rahr’s quest to save the world’s wild salmon should serve as an inspiration—and a provocation—for us all, and Tucker Malarkey’s exquisite book captures Rahr’s weird and wonderful story with poignancy, humor, and grace.”—Hampton Sides, author of In the Kingdom of Ice and Blood and Thunder “A crazy-good, intensely lived book that reads like an international thriller—only it’s our beloved salmon playing the part of diamonds or oil or gold.”—David James Duncan, author of The River Why and The Brothers K
Download or read book The Flavor of Wisconsin written by Harva Hachten and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wisconsin Historical Society published Harva Hachten's The Flavor of Wisconsin in 1981. It immediately became an invaluable resource on Wisconsin foods and foodways. This updated and expanded edition explores the multitude of changes in the food culture since the 1980s. It will find new audiences while continuing to delight the book’s many fans. And it will stand as a legacy to author Harva Hachten, who was at work on the revised edition at the time of her death in April 2006. While in many ways the first edition of The Flavor of Wisconsin has stood the test of time very well, food-related culture and business have changed immensely in the twenty-five years since its publication. Well-known regional food expert and author Terese Allen examines aspects of food, cooking, and eating that have changed or emerged since the first edition, including the explosion of farmers' markets; organic farming and sustainability; the "slow food" movement; artisanal breads, dairy, herb growers, and the like; and how relatively recent immigrants have contributed to Wisconsin's remarkably rich food scene.
