Advice for the fishers. Salmon have learned to defend themselves. They now go ballistic. This Samurai Salmon goes full on Ninja on this bear.

At least the adjustable wrench is being used correctly in that the adjustable jaw is on the side you are pulling towards. Many people don't realize that there is a right way and wrong way to use adjustable wrenches. Also, the jaws are tapered so you want to insert the nut as deep as you can in the throat and then pull the wrench so the nuts slides more forward in the jaws so the jaws grip the nut strongly. Sorry for the pedantry.

That rings true for all tools. Channel locks (adjustable wrenches - for those that don't know) are frequently misused are screwdrivers.
