Just watched a fantastic documentary regarding the future of Scottish Salmon, its habitat and landscape, and what is being done to ensure the survival of Scottish Salmon. I would urge everyone to watch it. Narrated by Peter Capaldi with great photography. 5*

It was shown in selected cinemas, however from the website find the contact e-mail address, and them and ask for a link/password to watch it from the comforts of your own home at all the w's scotlandbigpicture dot com.

Highly recommended!

I enjoyed it, and at least it brings a discussion to the table about other possible factors other than just salmon farms, seals, and cormorants etc. I agree there are many rivers in Russia and Alaska that have little woodland, but their water temperatures are surely lower than ours. I spoke to a ghillie on the Naver who was concerned about the water temperature of the river being very close to fatal. With global temperatures rising, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to place a few native well placed trees in places to provide shade and insect life to feed juvenile fish.
