The different species of salmon are important to us because of their different qualities and the requirements of preservation. The sockeye runs during mid-summer and can be preserved outside, but they are fat and do not keep as long. Chums run in the fall and have to be preserved in a plank house over a smoky fire. They are lean and when smoked will keep for a long time. The flavour of the different species is different as well. During the summer drying the fish is a possibility especially in the Fraser Canyon. There a warm wind provides ideal conditions for preserving without the added expense for fuel to smoke them. When the salmon are dried in sheds they are rubbed with salt and a fire is kept burning to keep the damp out, so that no mold sets on the fish.
