No. A Jack Salmon is a young Chinook (King) Salmon. Normally, Chinook return to fresh water to spawn when they are 3 - 4 years old. A Jack refers to a Chinook that returns to fresh water 1 - 2 years earlier than normal, when it is still juvenile. It is a "little" King, much like a Jack is smaller than a King in a deck of playing cards. A Whiting is Gadiforme (Cod-like) fish. This order of fish also includes: Cod, Hake, Haddock and Pollack, among others.
