Here in the Eastern Great Lakes, we catch both Steelhead and Salmon, mostly Chinook, but some Coho from Lake Ontario. I grew up on the West Coast and none of what we have here compares to any true sea run salmonoid type fish I grew up catching and eating. They do however compare very closely to the farm raised salmon, very, very fatty and lacking in taste. I think very little of them actually cooked, but off a smoker, they all can be made to taste great from my experience. I get few complaints anyway. Still, sea run fish have such a rich diet their taste has no rival in any Great Lake or farmers tank.
