These salmon return to the mighty Copper River each year with bodies full of fat and honed with the muscles that will power their ~300 mile journey back to their spawning grounds. There are very few wild salmon runs remaining on the planet where the fish are naturally adapted for such a swift and steep journey.
Lucky for you, we put everything we’ve got into harvesting a select few wild Copper River salmon, treating them with the utmost care every step of the way between our net and your kitchen.
Our boat, the F/V Amulet, has the most advanced on-board processing equipment in the Copper River fishing fleet. Outfitted with an immersion tank, refrigerated seawater, flake ice storage, and pressure bleeding technology, the Amulet crew delivers a superior product.
