The beautiful Salaca river in Northern Latvia is one of the country’s most important locations for the breeding and fishing of salmon. The Salaca flows for over 90km from Lake Burtnieks in Vidzeme to the Gulf of Riga and flows through three towns, Mazsalaca, Staicele and Salacgrīva. The river has suffered for many years from issues with the rapid infestation of weeds and rushes stopping the salmon from coming up stream and spawning.
