With all the rivers in flood stage, has anyone surfing the net come across a current video clip of chum salmon swimming across the highway? Come on, someone out there must have a link.

Thanks

The usual migration of the Skok chums. At least they avoid the nets.

Good luck,

I was hoping for something on the web that I could direct out-of-state friends to. I keep telling them these "fish stories" and they just refuse to believe it. Maybe I'll just have to drive down to the Skok myself and grab some footage with my camcorder when she goes over again.

Those pictures of Chum swimming across a road in 3 inches of water with a truck in the background usually get copied off 87 times and taped up around my work withthe caption reading. "Gus fishing".

This is not a video, but a still photograph from the Seattle Times. It is one of my favorite pictures. In addition to the fish that is crossing, note the line of fish following him and waiting to cross the street too.
