In the wild:
* Rivers: Salmon are a migratory fish, so they spend part of their lives in rivers. You'll find them in Scottish rivers as well as some English rivers like the River Tyne, River Wye, River Severn, and River Dee.
* Coastal waters: Salmon also frequent coastal waters, particularly off the north-east coast of England.
On your plate:
* Fishmongers and supermarkets: Salmon is widely available in fishmongers and supermarkets across England.
* Restaurants: Salmon is a popular menu item in restaurants, from casual eateries to fine dining establishments.
Other places:
* Salmon farms: While less common than in other parts of the UK, there are some salmon farms in England, primarily in coastal areas.
Important to note:
* Salmon populations in English rivers have declined in recent decades due to factors like pollution and habitat loss. Conservation efforts are underway to protect and restore these populations.
* While salmon can be found in some English rivers, the majority of salmon consumed in England is imported.
If you're interested in catching salmon yourself, you can check with local fishing clubs or authorities for regulations and fishing permits.
