On the banks of Oregon’s Willamette River, cooks grilled up food for hundreds of people. It’s a summertime barbecue with a twist.
The smell of sizzling lamprey drew people to a tent recently where Yakama Nation citizens placed 3- to 4-inch chunks of the fish onto the grill.
Evans Lewis manned the station.
“Just clean them, rinse them off and throw them on,” Lewis said.

There was a push to stop mass harvesting of salmon for several reasons. The lamprey will feed the people of Willamette Oregon. PO1 William "Chip" Nagel
