Seth and I headed down to Campbell Creek Park to watch a Fish and Game presentation on the cycle of life of a fish. Seth's school is going to take care of these eggs through the winter and release them in the spring. We learned there are 5 types of salmon and when the guy asked what the second name for the King was, I told Seth to yell out Elvis, but he said, "mom, that's not it, it's Chinook." I guess there is a difference between being smart and being a smart arse.
Did you know that once the adult fish is ready to leave the ocean to return to their spawning ground in freshwater they quit eating and that is why they turn red. Well, you do now.
Did you know that one fish can have up to 3000 eggs in her? You do now.
