I believe all species of wild pacific salmon are out of season right now. It is wild caught from June through September. Most likely, whatever you ate was farmed or frozen.

Pacific salmon is not one species. There are, in order of fattiness, King, Coho, Sockeye and Chum. Atlantic salmon are a different species. IMO, the fattier Pacific species are tastier and much better for sushi. Atlantic wild caught is nothing to turn your nose at, though.

Yeah, I went to Alaska & visited a salmon fishery on Metlakatla. Could you tell? I ate so much salmon, I nearly turned pink.
