Last weekend, fishing at the vedder i did notice that the brighter salmon in the faster water and the ones in the slow pockets where ones that have darkened.  But they are pretty much in the same water for me.

I haven't noticed a difference...never heard it mentioned or asked for any of the salmon. There has been posts about the males tending to come up river before females.

Male like to hold at the head of the run, female will hold at the tail out, so the sperm  will drift down the river to fertiles the eggs

that makes no sense.....they will be paired together side by side when they spawn... males and females stack together in runs on the vedder right now
