Try this site. Should give you an idea.

Commercial fishing with sport gear is done, at least in southeast Alaska, but is rarely considered more than a hobby fishery because of the minimal catch rate. I have found that the chum salmon lures we use catch saltwater steelhead pretty well, and would probably work just fine on Atlantic salmon. I read this morning on fishnewseu.com that the the Baltic salmon quota was set at about 108,000 fish this next season. The WWF seems to have issues with that. Maybe someday, if you have time, you could tell us more about salmon fishing on the other side of the world. Most fishermen over here, myself included, had our ancestors move here from Scandinavia around a century ago. Many of them probably fished the Baltic.

Abundance wrote:I think that steelhead, our closest comparison to Atlantic salmon, rarely go down that deep. We usually fish the bottom contour in the winter, and sometimes in the summer, anywhere from ten fathoms to sixty or more, depending on whats producing. It seems to me that, from your quota and sport fisher catch rates, that Baltic salmon are roughly similar to our Chinook Salmon in population density. Are you allowed to fish the entire Baltic Sea? That's a big body of water. If its murky from all the rivers and slow drainage than flashers may be absolute fish killers. Flashers are definitely a trollers main tool. .

We are fishing down to 100 fathoms, 600 feet. Usually from fifty fathoms up.
But then our target salmon, Chinook, commonly move in the water column down to 170 fathoms.
