When I look at a salmon, I don't just see a silver fish, I see California.
Salmon fishing is part of our heritage, a way of life that has been passed down for generations, deeply connected to the community and tradition. The forests, streams and wildlife of California depend on the return of the salmon for food and nutrients. Salmon is one of our last great wild foods, a pillar of the healthy, sustainable and delicious cuisine that we all have come to know and love in California. A fat, fresh piece of salmon pulled from the sea, passed over the coals and into your mouth, will light your senses and let you know that this is real food.
Wild salmon have been tied to the heritage, culture and history of California since the first people crossed the land bridge connecting Asia to the new world some 12,000 years ago.
