But there are consequences for salmon fisheries:less supply and more demand for salmon from other sources.
It's possible Chinook may become much like the Bluefin Tuna market. This one, sold at auction, set the record at $736,000. Anyone know how many sushi rolls a 593 lb. fish yields?

Those tuna prices happen a very few times a year, for bragging rights, and the buyers lose massive money per serving ($100). (http://www.seafoodsource.com/news/f...good-luck-to-sushi-restaurant-owners-in-japan). It's not likely to have much to do with salmon.

We can hope that's the case, but the with salmon stocks declining, not a certainty. Yes, each year they have these mega-bid's on Bluefin's. Still they have become quite expensive as appetite for them increases and their population declines.
