Originated in the Hudson Valley, New York.
The akward salmon is another member of the awkward animal clan. It is probably one of the funniest ones out there.
During an akward silence, it works just like the awkward turtle to relieve tension.
You put one hand flat and then slap the other hand onto the flat one alternating back-front-back-front etc, to look like a fish slapping on the floor of a boat.
The sound is the best part.

A member of the Awkward Animal Clan, the awkward salmon is a movement performed during or after an awkward moment to relieve tension. One variety of the motion is to place a hand another person's chin, palm down, and wiggle the hand and fingers so as to smack the underside of the person's chin somewhat.
