Do you know the fat content of a Columbia springer vs an early Yukon chinook?

This is from a fish vendors advertizment. I don't know if true or not.



The oil content of Yukon River King Salmon – a whopping 25-35 percent – is unequalled by any other wild Salmon. In fact, Yukon River King boasts up to twice the fat content of better-known Copper River King! Why is this?

The Yukon River runs for 2,300 miles, making its length unsurpassed in the US. Yukon King Salmon must travel this huge distance to spawn, and cannot eat during this arduous migration.

They devour a rich diet at sea to accumulate the uniquely high body fat levels needed to sustain them on their epic journey.
