I'd rather see them rot in the stream. Like I have said before, dead, rotting salmon are good for a stream. They provide food for trout, smolts, insect larva, nymphs, and other animals. Inturn, trout and smolts feed on the insects and nymphs. With fewer salmon returning to our rivers then there was historicly, we need every dead rotting salmon that we can get.
