I just took a leisurley stroll out to North creek which runs through my office complex in Bothell, & drains into the Sammamish Slough. There had to have been 20-30 actively spawning Sockeye in the stretch I visited. All of them were chasing each other around, carving out nests and doing their thing.

I just wanted to say that I think it is pretty awesome living here in Washington (I'm a native) and being able to walk 150 yards from my office to go and view Salmon spawning like that.

Especially on such a nice October day!
