Alaskan Wild Salmon from people who care
From people who care!
   
 

Who are we?

We are a small group of South East Alaskan Commercial Trollers, based out of Elfin cove and Sitka. Elfin Cove is located on the north west corner of South East Alaska where Cross Sound enters the inside passage. Sitka is on the west side of Baranof Island.

We cruise the pristine ocean waters in search of wild salmon. When they are ocean bright, they are in their prime condition, and the natural oil content, color, and flavor are at their absolute peak.

With the decline of salmon prices (due to the saturation of the market by farmed salmon), we deided to direct market our own salmon, so that we could bring healthy, non-contaminated wild salmon to the environmental conscience and health-wise individuals who still want the real thing.

We believe that folks like you, would appreciate these abundant, healthy, nutritious, wild salmon, right here at home.

Read our Fishing Fable to hear about our fishing excursion from our first year. After reading it, you will understand how our name "The ElFish Company" came about. At first, it seemed like a silly name for a salmon company, but hey, that didn't stop Peter Pan!

What do we do?

We direct-market Alaska Wild Salmon! We travel out to the open pristine waters (the ocean) of South East Alaska where we catch wild salmon when they are in prime condition, and the natural oil content, color, and flavor are at their absolute peak. Troll caught salmon means that every fish is caught selectively and individually by hook and line. No nets are used, thus there is no by-catch and very little impact on the environment.

The utmost care is taken in the handling our fish. Every fish we catch is brought onto the boat one-by-one. They are stunned in the water to avoid bruising and scale loss. Once the fish is on board, it is immediately bled, cleaned and stored below in flake ice to ensure the highest quality. See the pictures in the Fishing Fable
