That is a cock salmon after spawning and on his return journey to sea

Can be called kelts , slats. In cork and I even heard them being called judys down in Kerry ha

I hope you didn't keep it and try eat ,id imagine you would get quite sick

Caught one myself a few weeks ago but it was In much better condition , they are normally a lot leaner than a fresh salmon and if you look at his gills you would more than likely see maggots
