Except you know humans aren't fish. It sounds obvious but the challenges and dynamics of being human are so different than those of being salmon that any similarities between the two can only be true in the most abstract sense. It's like reading a story about tasmanian devils and thinking: "That's a pretty good metaphor for how we're engaging in sex, we humans should start biting our partner's faces off before intercourse too". Even going by your analogy we would all be "hatchlings raised in tubs" by virtue of being social animals, there is no real equivalent to wild salmon because a human child left to their own in the wild would just die.
