Greed

Fytte rakkern

@FisherManStan88 Well all I have to say is you need a new guide. And Norway’s salmon populations are in trouble, google fish farm. Cheers

@Bluebeltonproduction Actaully its not, i’ve only spent the last 4years fishing there
and the only place you even have decent chance of landing a non grills salmon
is at fly in lodges and privatized river sections with lodges. i’ve spent much time
with the locals and talked many stories of how the salmon sizes are in such decline that there should be a zero harvest rate at all. when my father fished as a boy every salmon was 20+ pds and yes it is very RARE to land a salmon of 10+pds champ

@FisherManStan88 Newfoundland overharvested? 10lb + salmon rare? Are you just plain stupid or retarded? I live in Newfoundland and what you are ranting on about is complete bullshit.

@johnball235 its a disgrace boy.

@coalie1979 yeh true that, its a big problem anyway

@johnball235 its the boys out at sea that are doing the damage there hitting um on the west coast as they travel,

jaja lindo pez

monster,lovely fish

Wow, nice catch..in Ireland we struggle to get salmon half that size because rivers and estuaries are poached dry .

@joa930

Actually, you are wrong.

@DonkeyOnkey THIS river is far from empty !

If wild salmon populations are good enoff for
the harvest of big jacks like that then its not all bad.
its untouched Norway we are talking about not over harvested Canada newfoundland and other places where its a rare to land a salmon over even ten pounds. i wouldn’t agree there but Norway has done a great job at not over harvesting and deserve to enjoy the benifits of taking home a nice big salmon. great cant! if u cant one that size in canada tho plz let it go lol

@joa930 keep killing wild salmon and everyone will be whining!

@JockScott6 stop whining plz

@sako85 while i agree aqua culture is by far the major threat, its still a shame to see such a huge fish killed, those are the genes for more big fish now not being passed on. makes you think about what the nets are keeping out the rivers thoough. these are sad times for atlantic salmon
