Oregon Troll Caught Wild Salmon

Ocean troll caught salmon are individually caught on a trolled lure, usually at fairly great depth (200 to 500 ft or more). From these deep, clear, cold waters, where the salmon have been feeding on some of the tastiest seafood in the world, the salmon are pulled to the surface one at a time where they are instantly processed and immersed in slush ice to lock in all the delicate flavors and freshness of thei unique diet.

This method of individual harvest, though it assures the highest quality, means that each troller does not catch very many salmon in a day of fishing. Salmon are hard to find in a very big ocean, and many times they are quite particular about what type or color of lure they will take, and it is really an art developed over many years of experience to do well as a salmon troller. Ocean troll-caught salmon are more expensive than other ways of catching, or raising salmon on farms, however the exceptional taste and delicate flavors unique to ocean caught troll salmon are well worth it.

The Seaon for Fresh Oregon Troll Salmon is from April thru October, and we try to have fresh salmon available (weather permitting). Salmon also freezes very, very well, so we take a portion of our catch toward the end of summer and vacuum pack and freeze it right off the boat, both as whole sides of salmon and also in portion sized pieces. This salmon is excellent, much better in taste than farmed fish, and available all winter long.

You can always have great salmon from Fishermen Direct Seafood.
