Custom fish processing

From your boat to your freezer, done right

Every fish is handled start to finish in our shop — cut by hand, sealed tight, and frozen hard so it keeps its flavour and texture.

Hand cut

Hand Filleting

Each fish is filleted by hand — never machine. Fillets, steaks, or whole, prepared the way you want it.

Sealed fresh

Vacuum Packing

Sealed in high-grade vacuum bags that lock out air and guard against freezer burn, so your fish stays fresh for the long haul.

Frozen fast

Flash Freezing

−40 °C

Frozen quickly in our −40 °C freezer. Fast freezing protects texture and flavour far better than a home freezer can.

Simple, fair pricing

All custom processing is priced per pound, based on the incoming weight of your fish. Email us and we'll give you a quote.

The smokehouse

Smoked salmon, the way we've always done it

Smoked on site in three styles, each with its own character.

Hot smoked

Rich & flaky

Brined in sugar and salt, then hot-smoked with the skin on and bones in. Ready to eat straight from the pack.

Choose a flavour:

Natural Pepper Garlic Pepper Cajun

Turnaround: about 2 weeks

Cold smoked

Silky & delicate

Cured in a salt brine in our cooler for several days, then smoked low and slow overnight for a smooth, refined finish.

Ask us to slice it into lox and arrange it on a presentation board for your table. Sliced cold smoked can take up to 12 weeks during the busy season.

Turnaround: about 2 weeks

Candied

Sweet & smoky

Deboned and skinned, brined in sugar, then hand-laid on our racks and smoked overnight for a sweet, candy-glazed finish — a West Coast favourite.

Please note: 10 lb minimum. We don't candy filleted fish, and we don't candy pink salmon.

Add a flavour:

Pepper Garlic Pepper Cajun

Turnaround: up to 3 weeks
