Can you freeze salmon after being cooked?

Of course you can freeze just about anything that can be cooked, but fish in particular is a delicate protein. The freezing causes water crystals inside of the flesh to take a shape with sharp and jagged edges. This can break down the flesh of the fish (or other frozen item) and leave it softer when it is defrosted. The difference in the salmon may be undetectable to some, but quite obvious to the avid seafood eater. In the commercial world this sort of thing would be flash frozen (like it probably was on the boat to begin with) which is a process that freezes so quickly that the crystals dont have time to form such large and sharp shapes. For best results with your salmon cool it completely first, place it in a ziploc bag, and put it in the back bottom (coldest) place in the freezer. If you can, avoid opening the door for maximum chill. Good luck!

Is it safe to eat thawed salmon?

Safety is relative, all raw foods carry a level of risk, but the risks are much higher for non-sashimi grade fish. First of all, sashimi grade is frozen very quickly after the fish is killed to preserve the flavors and freshness. The freezing process is also done in a way to kill any parasites. You have no idea how long it was until market grade fish was kept until or after freezing. Plus there is a big difference in the taste. The fish is quickly killed to prevent build-up of acids in the flesh for sashimi grade to protect the subtle flavors.

In my opinion, it's just not safe all around. Spend the extra bucks and get sashimi grade.

How does the salmon attract its prey?

Sockeye salmon have very short lives. They have many different behaviors that help them survive, such as going around in schools, where they trade places so they can all eat and avoid predators, taking turns at the safer places and the places with the most food. They also take the schools to different places depending on the time of day to avoid predators and to find the best food. They can live up to 3 years in freshwater before they migrate to the ocean. Then they spend 1-4 years there, and come back to freshwater to spawn. After spawning, they die.
