My experience here in British Columbia is that Pinks seem to travel upstream less than other Pacific Salmon, but I've caught them 50 to 60 km above salt water and 40 km above the influence of tides in tributaries of the Fraser (Tides influence the Fraser almost 100 km upstream from salt water). So they can spawn well upstream especially in larger river systems.

Surely they will compete for marine resources, so there must be some sort of competitive impact on native stocks.

Given a high percentage of the run into some northern Scottish rivers is dead or dying of red belly, pink salmon running rivers is but a minor, insignificant problem.

Nature will find a way.  :D
