Fish wheel article on Cyber Salmon, of U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the Fairbanks Fish & Wildlife Field Office

Jessica peer review

This is a really interesting topic. I had no idea that fish wheels existed… such a trashy way of catching fish if used commercially. I really liked your inclusion of the significance of salmon and the conflicts between local Indigenous and commercial fisheries. I think this helps to contextualize the use of fish wheels.

My suggestions:

include “rotating device” in first line of your description of the fish wheel.

A fish wheel is outfitted with “wire baskets”

How big are fish wheels? I found a reference that says that they can be upwards of 30 meters in diameter found in the following article: Donaldson, A. B., Canada, & Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat. (2011). Impacts of fishing gears other than bottom trawls, dredges, gillnets and longlines on aquatic biodiversity and vulnerable marine ecosystems.
