Record salmon runs in US northwest and Alaska in 2012

"[August 10, 2012] Chinook salmon may have record run on the Klamath » Redding Record SearchlightThe number of Chinook salmon swimming up the Klamath River this year is expected to be the largest in decades, with estimates ranging from 352,000 to 380,000 fish returning this fall.
[June 2012]: Northwest sees record returns of sockeye salmon - Yahoo! FinanceRecord numbers of a once-waning population of sockeye salmon have been returning to the Northwest's Columbia Basin this summer, with thousands more crossing the river's dams in a single day than the total numbers seen in some previous years.
Since Bonneville Dam outside Portland was built in 1938, there have been plenty of times there weren't 38,000 sockeye salmon swimming over the fish ladders in a whole year. But on Monday that many passed the Columbia River dam, and another 41,000 swam over the dam on Wednesday — a rate of nearly 30 a minute. That bought the total so far to 290,000.
[June 2012]: Record run of red salmon swarms the Copper River: Interior | Alaska news at adn.comThe cumulative in-river fish count at Miles Lake, near the "Million Dollar Bridge" outside Cordova, stood at 469,895 as of Sunday. That is by far the most for that date in the past 34 years. Counting began on May 16.
...
This year's giant number got a big boost from all-time daily highs reached last week.
"May 28, 29 and 30 were all records," said Mark Somerville, Fish and Game's area management biologist for sport fish based in Glennallen. "It was the highest we've ever seen in a three-day count.""
