It depends on what the question is asking for.

Technically the answer would be "yes". Salmon eat many bugs and bacteria in the water, which is seen as meat.

However, they do eat reeds and leaf litter which lands on the water.

However fish eat rival fish eggs to lower the competition for their own hatching

So, yes salmons are carnivores to an extent.
