Not exactly a new idea. OR tried a variation of this decades ago. Raise
salmon in landlocked pools (like a huge swimming pools) on the Pacific Coast
with a canal to the sea. Let salmon go to sea when ready and return to
pen/pool when ready. This was back when aquaculture was in its infancy. I
didn't follow on how well it worked out.
