  • This was completed in 2003 when only SD video was available. Ged, who coproduced it has access to complex upscaling software and has done so with this now. There are still some issues with skyline burnout that cameras of the day had issues with but it is overall much better in HD.. Filmed predominantly on the Fhorsa on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland. It follows the journey of the salmon and those who fish for them.

    A truly remarkable production that really highlights the amazing lifecycle and the increasing threats to our iconic Atlantic Salmon. As a passionate salmon angler and conservationist thank you for producing, enhancing and sharing this lovely informative film.

    God I enjoyed this. My favourite fish in my favourite landscape. Too bad that salmon numbers in the region are now so reduced (and fishing for them so expensive!), so I now spend my hard-earned fishing for Pacific salmon in British Columbia, Canada, where the runs are still plentiful and the cost reasonable.

    Lovely film Richard that almost seems from a lifetime ago. How quickly this remarkable species has come to the very brink of collapse and while there may be plenty left in some rivers, others suffer extremely variable runs from year to year. As you say in your previous comments, it's not angling that has brought us to the current state of affairs but many other factors that affect marine survival. There are many potential issues and while one may be aquaculture, it is just one of many. The days when we could harvest fish after fish with virtually no impact on stocks are gone for now but as Paul Young states in your film, this situation could again change to favour salmon survival and in years to come, there would be nothing wrong with taking a sustainable harvest but at present we appear to be a long way from this on most Scottish rivers.

    Excellent program! The salmon's journey in the rivers then out to sea and back again and the fisherman who catch them.

    Exceptional video on the silver fish. Hard to believe with all the fisherman out there that not more commented ? I personally believe that they do feed in fresh water, having witnessed some convincing examples.

    The problem is definitely at sea, here in Ireland during the Covid lockdowns it was reported nearly system had very good returns of fish and those in the locality who were permitted to fish had fantastic fishing. Now the boats are back out on the high seas the numbers have plummeted again, you don't need to be Einstein to see what's happening. No more excuses are needed but rather firm action against those responsible.

  • @PiscatorUK-Fishing

    A wonderful fish on the brink of extinction. There was one angler that said he only takes 2 or 3 salmon a year, he doesn’t think that will make much of a difference to the many that makes it up river to spawn. Sadly this is the attitude of many anglers not just salmon anglers. Thats thousands of adult salmon lost forever not to mention the potential millions of offspring. Salmon anglers blame everything else for their demise.

    Not as exciting as Bass fishing.

    It's always the angler that takes the blame how about targeting the poachers and the high sea netting .
