What a group. A simple question like tides and look where it goes.I appreciate all the good information.
Another question. Once the herring begin to spawn do they remain at the stream entrances until they have spawned or do they come and go with the tide?
Just a side note, last night on PBS in the mountain west region they had an interesting documentary. A portion of which focused on the Alaskan herring. They showed several different ways that the locals harvested the herring eggs. one way they collected eggs was to submerge juniper trees and anchor them to the ocean floor. Evidently the herring are attracted to trees and lay their eggs on the bows which are later harvested, salted, and shipped to Japan. The Japanese market is huge and the market demands high prices. I've never none this market existed. Does anyone know anyone that harvests herring eggs?
