I suspect that most kelts which you will see on the banks have been thrown there as rejects by poachers , particularly if they are more-or-less intact .  Not everyone realises that our Atlantic salmon can recover from injury and fungal infection if they are able to return to the sea -- which I think is unlike the American fish you see in documentaries -- those only go upstream once  then all die after spawning . But I could be completely wrong about that .
