Where did our Chinook Salmon go? The disappearance of this keystone species is a pressing issue affecting cultures and economies within the entire Pacific Rim. In this episode of Fin and Fire With Jeff Mishler, I chat with Dr. Will Atlas of the Wild Salmon Center, a man with his thumb on the pulse of the issue. Will explains our current situation with salmon populations and what needs to change for them to recover.
About Jeff Mishler
Jeff Mishler is a fifth generation Oregonian who's life work is hard to quantify. Father, writer, photographer, television commercial director, environmentalist, video producer/distributor, website manager, hunter, angler and lifelong recreationist who lives a fly-by-the-seat-of-yourpants mantra. If he’s not in his office writing another essay or developing a show concept, he’s chasing mallards and pheasants with his lab Hailey, running his jet sled up a local river to a sweet steelhead run, setting up on a screaming bull elk with bow in hand or conspiring with his small circle of equally affected steelhead bums while downing healthy portions of really good Oregon beer.
