Fish wheel operated for river basin research on the Copper River

Fish wheel operated for river basin research on the Copper River. Laws have been enacted to prevent commercial use of wheels, since almost every salmon is scooped up when the fish migrate toward spawning beds. Wheels can still be operated if the fish are caught for personal use.

Photo Location: Alaska, Copper River, near Chitina
