URW Game Encyclopedia description
The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes salmon thusly:
Salmon is a large and valued migratory fish that can be encountered in rivers and inland lakes, as well as in the sea and coastal areas. As a migratory fish, salmon travels through the rivers.
Salmons hatch in freshwater headstreams and spend their juvenile years in rivers and lakes. Upon maturing, they migrate to the sea, and return back to rivers to spawn. It is said that salmons return to spawn in the very same river that they originated from.
During the salmon migration and spawning they are caught from the rivers and rapids especially well with a lippo. Salmon migrates from the sea up the rivers throughout the summer. They do dwell in the rivers until the spawning starts in late autumn, usually around fall or dirt month. The actual spawning time depends on the water temperature which needs to be fairly cold for the salmons to start their spawning. When the spawning starts, it lasts for a few weeks.
