Native kokanee salmon were once the most common salmon in Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish. Today, native kokanee have been reduced to a small population in Lake Sammamish… or have they? This talk will explore the origins of salmon in the Lake Washington basin, prospects for restoration of native kokanee and the mystery of the “snerka."
