There are a number of different ways to harvest salmon, depending on whether you are a commercial, subsistence or sport fish user. Sport fishermen can catch salmon using a rod and reel with lures. Salmon are not caught using bait, lures only. Commercial fishermen use gillnet and seine boats. Gillnets boats use large nets that are set out as far as 1000 feet from the boat. These nets lay out for several hours, and when reeled in are full of salmon (caught in the net holes with their gills). Seine boats use the same method though in a larger scale. Purse Seines set their sets in a big ring, then cinch the purse to collect all fish inside the ring. Subsistence users use dipnets to catch the salmon when they are swimming by, or fish wheels (large wheels that collect fish in pockets and hold them in a tank until they are removed by the operator).

Why did salmon farming start?

Salmon farming got started because there was not enough fish for everyone. Everyone can get salmon even if it is not the salmon season if you farm salmon. The population is growing so we have to find more food. By farming salmon, there will be more seafood supply and half of the world's seafood is farmed. There is fresh salmon in every season, and fresh salmon is healthy. Commercial fishing can only harvest salmon at the right time of the year.
