Check out these Chinook salmon spawning in upper Sonoma Creek! Sent in by Ian Morrison, who took the video three days ago at his creek-side home, the footage shows a female and male salmon on a “redd” or nest, with another hanger on to the left. Several more Chinooks have been seen swimming far up Sonoma Creek with increased flow caused by the early rains.
