Because of the pervasive and substantial decline of Atlantic salmon populations in Maine over the past 150 years, and because they are close to extinction, a comprehensive statewide action should be taken now to ensure their survival. The populations of Atlantic salmon have declined drastically, from an estimated half million adult salmon returning to U.S. rivers each year in the early 1800s to perhaps as few as 1,000 in 2001. The report recommends implementing a formalized decision-making approach to establish priorities, evaluate options and coordinate plans for conserving and restoring the salmon.

Atlantic salmon in Maine, once abundant but now seriously depleted, were listed as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) in November 2000. The listing covers the wild fish in eight Maine rivers as a single "distinct population segment." The controversy in Maine that accompanied the listing led Congress to request the National Research Council's (NRC's) advice on the science relevant to understanding and reversing the declines in Maine's salmon populations. The charge to the NRC's Committee on Atlantic Salmon in Maine included an interim report focusing on the genetic makeup of Maine Atlantic salmon populations. This is the interim report. Understanding the genetic makeup of Maine's salmon is important for recovery efforts, because the degree to which populations in Maine differ from adjacent populations in Canada and the degree to which populations in different Maine rivers and tributaries differ from each other affect the choice of recovery options that are most likely to be effective. This report focuses only on questions of genetic distinctiveness. The committee's final report will address the broader issues, such as the factors that have caused Maine's salmon populations to decline and the options for helping them to recover.

In 1786 fresh Atlantic salmon were sold by Col. Robert Treat for two pence per pound at his store near Penjajawoc Falls on the Penobscot River. J.F. Leavitt and fly rod maker H.L. Leonard reported the first Atlantic salmon caught on a fly at the mouth of Wassataquoik Stream in 1880. A few years later the Penobscot Salmon Club was formed, its club house built on the shores of the Bangor Salmon Pool. It was here that Maine anglers began the tradition of recreational fly fishing for Atlantic salmon. In 1885, forty salmon were reported caught by salmon anglers at this pool. A record 30 pound salmon was recorded (not caught on a fly) by W.W. Fogg. In 1921, the first Atlantic salmon of the season caught on a fly was sent to President Taft, and a tradition had begun. Commercial salmon fishermen caught up to 7,000 salmon in river weirs annually, not to mention those fish caught in the drift net fishery along the coastal waters. Due to excessive commercial fishing, mills and dams and water pollution, the last big runs of Atlantic salmon were reported in the early 1930's. Over fishing and habitat degradation continued to take its toll and by 1940 only a remnant of Atlantic salmon survived in the more remote rivers and streams of Down East Maine. From this remaining stock of wild Atlantic salmon, the restoration effort was begun by the newly founded Maine Salmon Commission in 1947. On a handful of streams the tradition of salmon angling continued through tough times. Conservationists, fly fishermen and river watchers continued to petition the state legislature on behalf of the Atlantic salmon, and established salmon organizations to voice concerns and protect the salmon rivers of Maine. Over the next two decades the restoration effort continued in earnest with commercial fishing restrictions, stream enhancement, water pollution control, removal of dams and fish way installation on those dams that remained. Fish hatcheries were established and salmon stocking programs supplemented wild salmon stocks. Over time salmon returned to the streams of the Down East in record numbers. Fishermen returned to the streams as well, carrying on the traditions and continuing in the footsteps of their salmon angling fore fathers. By 1981, Atlantic salmon also returned to the pools of the Penobscot in historic numbers. Anglers again flocked to the shores of the river. The Penobscot Salmon Club was reformed along with the formation of other salmon clubs at Eddington and Veasie. Silver Streams is a compilation of short stories, journal entries, poems and artwork that flowed together over time to tell a larger story. It is a story of fly fishing legends and folklore, of quaint New England towns and a rustic environment, of wild creatures and conservation depicting a fleeting age and a unique piece of Yankee Americana. These writings and artwork were composed or completed by the author over a 25 year period, while traversing the streams and shorelines of Down East Maine with fly rod, art supplies, notebook and camera. The resulting work documents a vanishing species and habitat, a fleeting breed of sportsmen, unique folklore and a historic era in salmon angling. The art and writing were conceived before the decline, at a time when Atlantic salmon flourished and "the first restoration" had become a distant memory. But seasons passed, and fall eventually turned to winter. Old timers told stories dating back to a time when salmon failed to return to their native streams. Optimistic anglers didn't notice at first, or take heed, but reality set in when the Federal Government declared the Atlantic salmon an endangered species, and the tradition of salmon angling on the streams of Maine was banned. The hope is that these stories and images inspired on the salmon streams of Maine will renew interest in the American salmon angling heritage, refocus attention on the conservation of Atlantic salmon habitat and revive the dream
