I want to share the salmon fish that we catch on the island of Sakhalin (in the Russian Far East).
In the 1-4 photos, the fish is Salvelinus leucomaenis, which is also known as Sakhalin char/Siberian trout. We call it "kundja." It can be found both in rivers and in the sea.
In the 5-8 photos, the fish is Salvelinus curilus, also known as Dolly Varden trout. We call it "malma," which is a small fish that only lives in rivers.
On 8-12 – Parahucho perryi or Sakhalin taimen, a rare fish listed in the Red Book. It can grow over 40 kilograms (more than 88 pounds). Only young fish live in rivers, while adults live in the sea.
P. S. I don't know English very well, and this is my first post on Reddit. So I apologize in advance for any mistakes.
