Hi Shaq

 

Nice vidio cool fights. One question do the Steelheads all die like the salmon or do they return to the sea after spawning?

thanks guys,

 

It was fun making it...

 

Jens, The steelhead are in the system right now to feed on eggs and salmon flesh ect. They will either winter over in the river or head to the lake (our sea is the great lakes) and then return to the river to spawn in the spring. They do not die and will return to the lake again and return the following year.

Some do die, but I think it's mostly the males because they try to mate with as many females as possible and don't they have much left when they are done. All scarred up with fungus on them and such.

 

The females do their thing and once they deposit all their eggs in a few different redds there isn't much they can do so they head back out to the lake.

 

So to answer your question Jens, most don't die but I bet more die than we think.
