Kokone Salmon at Lake Tahoe!
October 3rd, 2008 6:34 PM

One of Lake Tahoe's most popular nature shows of the year is off to a promising start.

Thousands of kokanee salmon are swimming up Taylor Creek off the lake's south shore as part of their annual spawning ritual.

U.S. Forest Service officials say while the run doesn't typically peak until mid-October, it's off to a good start. They say as many as 50,000 of the fish may make the journey upstream this year.

Landlocked cousins of the seagoing sockeye salmon, the kokanee were introduced to Lake Tahoe in 1944 by biologists.

They quickly adapted to the alpine environment, joining brown and rainbow trout and mackinaw as Tahoe's most popular game fish.

The run coincides with this weekend's 19th annual Kokanee Salmon Festival at the Forest Service Visitor Center, 3 miles north of South Lake Tahoe on Highway 89.
