Approx. location of lake Iliamna, Alaska

Iliamna Fish Company proudly offers one of Alaska's finest wild fish-the sockeye salmon. Of the five Pacific salmon species, wild Alaskan sockeye salmon have the deepest color and the highest Omega-3 oil content, an essential fatty acid that has been proven to fight heart disease.

Lake Iliamna, the terminal spawning grounds of our salmon, is the largest freshwater lake in Alaska. Iliamna Fish Company sockeye salmon are Marine Stewardship Council certified-signifying the ocean, rivers and lake where our wild sockeye grow are part of a healthy and pure marine ecosystem.

Sockeye salmon, unlike all other salmonidae, are exclusive filter feeders. Sockeye consume only microorganisms, particularly, a kind of plankton bountiful in North Pacific waters. This unique diet gives the brilliant color and firm flesh that makes sockeye special.

Our Red Salmon are harvested out of Bristol Bay near the mouth of the Kvichak River which is the only outlet leading from Lake Iliamna. The Vantrease family homestead is located at the north eastern most tip of the lake near the Iliamna River.
