Obligatory:
Ruining the very pants he was about to return.
There’s going to be some very good fishing in that creek. A lot of salmon in a smaller body of water.
If there’s enough food for them.
You nailed the potential problem: resources. That’s a LOT of fish for a creek, especially dumped in one area. The good news is that, since these are salmon smolts and it’s spring, they are going to immediately be migrating out to the ocean. If these were resident trout, they’d quickly max out the resources of the creek and begin starving.
I’m sure the driver is too embarrassed to admit that the crash was caused by him being overpowered by the fish
Will the salmon try to return to this creek or just end up somewhere else come mating season?
They’ll be expected to return to this creek.
I hope they wrote down the address
Jesus works in mysterious ways.
Give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day.
Make man dump a truck full of fish… won’t get fished again.
Something like that.
Except for the ones that stayed behind to have their picture taken.
