The author, whose experience was largely on Tyne and Tweed, was convinced that the parr is unrelated to the salmon. "Some writers and thinkers would have us believe that they are the young of the salmon...The sooner the rivers get clear of them the better for the angler, as they are a perfect nuisance to him."
