Kokanee Salmon

Kokanee Salmon Carcass

Kokanee are the land-locked form of sockeye salmon.  Due to the fact they do not go to the ocean where there are vast sums of food, their size is far smaller and grow to around 14" in length.  Kokanee are native to British Columbia, Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Siberia & Japan and have been introduced to lakes and hatcheries throughout the world.
