Hood Canal salmon run sees booming recovery as fish face extinction 
By Isabella Breda US Source: The Seattle Times 10/3/2024

Hulking snaggletoothed salmon thrashed and rattled the steel pen as they tried to vault the walls.

Tracy and Kevin Stoops hoisted the tiger-striped black, burgundy and evergreen chum from the trap. The fish, fighting to get upstream to spawn the next generation of Hood Canal summer chum, was intercepted by volunteers at this weir used to tally the population.
