At Copper River Fish Market we take every possible measure to surpass our customer’s expectations. We know you will be satisfied. As the catcher, processor and packager we are in an exceptional position to maintain quality. Buying directly from the fisherman reduces handling and allows you to know exactly where your fish has been and that it has been well cared for along the way. With this in mind we have developed a process that seeks to ensure excellence from the moment your fish leaves the water to your very last bite.

Our process exceeds industry standard on all levels.

Our Boat – the Eyak Ryder - has specially designed and fabricated fish cleaning stations. These stations permit us to handle the fish with the care and precision they deserve. We also have a unique configuration of insulated fish holds that allow us to maintain a consistent temperature until our arrival into our homeport for freezing or fresh market shipping.

The Catch – We promptly process your chosen fish at sea to ensure a fresh flavor.

Storage – Layer icing in our custom holds maintain freshness throughout the harvest period.

Packaging – Your fresh fish are hand transferred from our fish holds directly to their shipping boxes containing non-toxic and reusable gel ice bags. Frozen product is flash frozen directly off the boat.

Shipping – Once packaged your fish are personally delivered to your selected shipping provider. All options provide a tracking number enabling you to monitor your fish’s journey from our home to yours.
