ERABBIT Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 They are two differnt strains of the same fish now the way I researched it some time back. Started as Atlantics that got landlocked by man and kept reproducing long enought that they are a new/ own strain now.
ddubs3 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I dont think they were landlocked by man. They made their way to Ontario and Champlain and established populations there. The Ontario salmon were fished into extinction by around 1900 if I recall. [ Post made via Android ]
spoonfed-1 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 They are Land Locked Atlantic Salmon. Period. Sebago Lake in Maine was one of the first lakes to support a naturally reproducing Land Lock Salmon. Or so I been told. Fish from Sebago were stocked in many different lakes. Should find a lot of information on this topic by doing a search on the internet. Glen

Talk about being almost right but way wrong at the same time........must be getting OLD mind is fading
stinger Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 As Glen has said, a little search will get more info. I thought that I'd post this link for a better read on New York's Atlantics. Some of the info on the 1800's is pretty depressing. http://www.esf.edu/pubprog/brochure/salmon/salmon.htm
rustyrat Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Really easy. Atlantic salmon lives in the Atlantic ocean then returns to the spawning rivers. landlocked salmon lives in fresh water lakes then returns to the.spawning rivers. RR [ Post made via Android ]
143447 Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 landlocked salmon swim in cayuga, smash my green colored spoons,battle like hell all the way to the net, get a ride in a cooler to my charcoal grille and get eaten during the Yankee game. When I catch an Atlantic this year in lake ontario, I shall report!!
