April 3, 2009 - PRLog -- http://fishing.fuelspace.com/salmonrun.php reprints a Salmon run timing report that was not previously available online and provides tables showing the average timing of salmon runs in British Columbia fishing areas each week.

The webpage contains data for sockeye, odd year pinks, even year pinks, coho, chum and chinook salmon and displays links to a map of the statistical fishing areas and to the fishing area codes.
