In Topic: Salmon and Trout Identification

26 January 2015 - 04:07 PM

The name, Salmo salar, is from the Latin salmo, meaning salmon, and salar, meaning leaper, according to M. Barton,[5] but more likely meaning "resident of salt water". Lewis and Short's Latin Dictionary (Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1879) translates salar as a kind of trout from its use in the Idylls of the poet Ausonius (4th century CE).

 

the leaper name, could also be a name from long ago as a name that the natives gave the fish due to its ability to fly 

 

Thanks.

you tell me? do you see that shape or colour you posted? if the answer is yes, then yes, if the answer is no, it is pretty rhetorical.

 

Rhetorical? Fine. Thank you.

I was referring to MJL from OFC/FF.NET. That's his link and those are his pictures. I put it up as an example that fish don't need to be shake n baked in mud or sand to get a good picture.

 

Okay. Thank you Kestrel. :razz:

I put this in the other Forum, "Atlantic Salmon Identification"  Thought it wouldn't hurt to put it in here also. It's all the "Scientific Data" on the "Atlantic Salmon"

 

 

"Someone" in another Post referred to their "Scientific" Name as "Leapers" because they could Jump very high. Be assured that was NOT correct. Unless it was intended as a Joke.

I don't think he's on this forum, but the fishing pics he posts on a couple other boards are spectacular. All done with the fish's welfare in-mind.
