Salmon Limits Reached & Growing Your Own

Salmon Limits Reached & Growing Your Own

Salmon Limits Reached & Growing Your Own. I'm Greg Martin with today's Northwest Report. If you tend to fish for Chinook along the South Fork of Idaho's Salmon River you will need to note that tonight at about 10pm is the end of the season in that area according to Dale Allen with the Idaho Fish & Game. ALLEN: We're basically done with our sport harvest share so we need to get out of the river and what's left is tribal share and some fish coming to the hatchery. We've had good fishing here. It took off real slow and exploded over July 4th weekend and so when we reach our goals we have to shut it down pretty quick. We're shutting it down Friday night, end of fishing which is 10 o'clock and some change, basically dark. We still have fisheries open in the upper Salmon and we still have fisheries open near Riggins, a piece on the main Salmon and then the Little Salmon river. Many more urbanites are discovering what folks in rural communities and farms have known for ages...fresh home grown food is wonderful. Last year, the National Gardening Association said 40 percent more households would grow their own vegetables compared to two years earlier, with those gardens yielding an average $500 return. People are growing their own vegetables, grinding their own flour and even butchering their own meat. Now here's today's Washington Grange Report. (GRANGE) That's today's Northwest Report. I'm Greg Martin on the Ag Information Network.
