DO SALMON FEED IN FRESH WATER? 41 



salmon are inspired in the spring by the 

 flow of water from the rivers to return to 

 fresh water. 



There is no doubt that the salmon find 

 warm water congenial. The upper waters 

 of the Grand Cascapedia run through 

 stretches of lowland and are not deep. 

 They are well exposed to the rays of the sun 

 and the bottom of the river is covered with 

 gravel and sand. 



At Lazy Bogan in the Parson and Forks 

 pools the fish are found in great numbers. 

 Here they are known to spawn, yet they 

 use many other parts of the river for a like 

 purpose. May it not be the warm water 

 and a summer of light and sunshine that 

 they seek?
