We checked with a number of fish biologist all over the world, for accuracy, used just a little bit of artistic licence (my son) but he nailed it. A low frequency infra sound wave (the kind generated by the air bladder on a bait fish) can literally travel for miles. This is the ultra high tech sensory system of a king salmon. Basically it explains how and why king salmon make a bee line for a fac...
