@MinhonYT I think it would be good for Alaska to catch their farmed/ranched salmon and not the wild BC salmon as by-catch

How was it good news for salmon? I think this is dam good news for fishermen!

That ain't tom cruise number 1 and we need to know who to assign blame on when the salmon are caught by commercial fisherman in the ocean, maybe we are supplying fish to other countries at a cost of millions to produce them in our river's hatcheries.

Plus these things will add way more ocean noise making it harder for animals to echo locate and find food and mates.

Mala idea, poner polucion en el fondo del mar?, por las señales, podria interferir con la vida marina, ballenas delfines, etc, creo que existe mejor tecnologia, para llevar a cabo tel proyecto

[DannyTBrian]

Sounds pretty sweet! but wtf do we need to know where the fish are just leave them and they will be ok all we have to do is stop poluting the oceans....
