The' red (sockeye or blueback), the kind (chinook or spring), the coho (silver), the pink (humpback), and the chum (keta or dog). They spend a large part of their lives in the ocean, then enter fresh to ascend streams and spawn. During their ocean life they scatter widely, feed on plankton and small fishes, and keep to cold water. The spawn ing seasons of the Pacific sal mon last generally from late summer to early winter. As the fish approach sexual maturity (pink salmon, two years; red and king salmon, four to seven years), they assemble and swarm up the rivers of their birth until they find a place to spawn. Then they pair off. Each pair builds a nest or de pression in the gravel of the stream bed and they spawn over . a period of several days. Two local boys to box in Jr. Olympics 2.
