While our 2026 fishing season started out promising, fishing did not go well for us Cook Inlet drift boat fishermen this season. While some of the salmon we catch are Kasilof River sockeye (red) salmon, the majority of reds we typically catch are the Kenai River reds. The projected numbers for the reds heading to the Kenai River initially looked great, like last year. Then, the fleet was restricted to fishing in smaller corridor areas or sections of the Cook Inlet. Our number of fishing days were also greatly reduced. Unfortunately, we were not able to catch enough extra salmon for our direct marketing purposes, and do not have any reds to sell this year. We are so very sorry!! We plan to do things a little differently next year so that we can have red salmon available once again to our customers. We really appreciate your business and support over the past year. And we look forward to bringing you top quality Cook Inlet red salmon next year!!

We are super excited to be back out on the water catching red salmon!! While our season started June 22, it's now game on with lots of salmon heading up the Cook Inlet. Last Monday, July 13, us and most of the fishing fleet really started catching some fish!! It's always interesting to me, that no matter how hard you prepare, you always have to be ready for the unexpected! Whether your crew gets sick, a boat has mechanical issues, net issues, or say a net or hmmm... a brailer bag in your prop!! Life happens!! Last Saturday, we forgot to pick up one of our brailer bags that was tied to our boat and was in the river getting clean. It was no longer floating and had gone underwater. We didn't see it but heard a thunk when it hit our prop as we started heading down the river. A friend of ours rescued us with their skiff, helped tie our boat up to a dock on the Kasilof River. Then it was a 6 hour wait for low tide into the middle of the night. When the tide was low, we got under our boat and cut the brailer bag off our prop. By the way, NOMAR in Homer made our excellent super tough brailer bags. I think that bag just had a few small holes in it, after being turned around and around in our prop. We'll try to repair it later. Until then, we bought a new bag. After freeing the bag, we waited another 6 hours for high tide so we could release our boat from the dock. I don't know the name of the Espresso Coffee Shop at the Kasilof River, but thanks to them for helping us feel human again during the middle of the night, with their delicious lattes! We are getting ready to head out tonight into the Cook Inlet, for a hopefully good fishing day tomorrow!! We have been catching some beautiful red salmon, including some big ones! We look forward to bringing you more red salmon from the Cook Inlet very soon. Hope you all are enjoying this beautiful Alaskan summer!!

Last weekend at the Homer Farmer's Market, we purchased Karl's Everything Mix seasoning. We tried it on our red sockeye salmon tonight and it tastes amazing on salmon!! Super yummy!! We highly recommend it. It's all natural. We sprinkled the seasoning onto the fillet and pan-seared the salmon. Then topped it with warm corn salsa. Delicious! Karl will be at the Homer Farmer's Market for the rest of the season selling his Fire Grill BBQ meals, seasonings and sauces, including the seasoning mix we tried tonight. Enjoy!! :)

Getting Ready for Fishing!! We are excited for the upcoming salmon fishing season! In just about one month, red sockeye salmon will be swimming back into the Cook Inlet from the Gulf of Alaska.

Our commercial fishing season starts June 19 and runs through mid-August. We plan to have more sockeye salmon for sale around mid-August with pick locations from Homer to Anchorage! In the meantime, we are working on getting our boat, the F/V Lizzy T, ready for the upcoming season.

Days are getting longer with more hours of sunlight and temps are out of the freezing range, making it much easier to work on the boat! It’s a real treat to watch the wildlife in the Homer Harbor as we work – check out our video of mama and baby sea otter on the dock, and our eagle photos!

While on vacation last week in Michigan (to visit my Mom) and in Florida (to attend my daughter’s college graduation), I brought some of our salmon to my mom's and made a few salmon recipes which I plan to share here soon. The red salmon with Chermoula spiced herb sauce was delicious, as was the chum/keta salmon with warm corn salsa (both pictured here).

Speaking of chum/keta, we will be selling some at the upcoming season opener of the Homer Farmer’s Market this Saturday, May 23!! Another post will soon follow for that. :)

A HUGE thank you to all of our amazing customers for supporting us in our first year of direct marketing our salmon!!

We love commercial fishing and feel incredibly fortunate to provide such a delicious, high-protein, healthy food to our community. Selling our entire catch to wholesalers simply isn’t sustainable for us, so in 2024 we set out to bring some of our salmon directly to you. While we couldn’t make it happen that first year, we worked hard in 2025 and successfully launched our direct sales—and we’re so proud of what we’ve built.

Most commercially caught salmon in Alaska is shipped out of state, which is why it means so much to us that the majority of our fish has been sold right here in Alaska. From harvesting salmon in the pristine waters of Cook Inlet, to processing our fish on the Kenai Peninsula, to delivering beautiful, frozen fillets directly to customers from Homer to Anchorage—this has been an incredibly fulfilling journey.

We believe strongly in local food for our local communities, and we’re honored to share this with you.

We truly couldn’t have done this without you. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your support, your encouragement, and for taking the time to connect with us. It’s been a joy getting to know so many of you.

We are currently sold out of sockeye salmon, but we’re already looking ahead to this summer’s 2026 fishing season and can’t wait to bring you more fresh frozen red sockeye this August!

We’re also planning to have a booth at the Homer Farmer’s Market on May 23rd (if we still have some keta/chum salmon available). Stay tuned for updates on Facebook and our website.

Thank you again—we’re so grateful for you!
