Every October 8, we celebrate National Salmon Day, a holiday that feels made for us here at Premier Catch. After all, wild salmon is at the heart of everything we do - our roots, our recipes, and our mission to share the best of Alaska’s waters with families across the country.
Why Salmon Deserves Its Own Day
Salmon isn’t just a fish; it’s a way of life around here. From the cold, clear waters of Alaska to the winding rivers of Washington and Oregon, wild salmon has nourished generations of coastal families - ours included.
Each fillet tells a story of sustainable fishing, cold ocean currents, and a natural migration that scientists and seafood lovers alike continue to admire. Wild salmon is a cornerstone of our ecosystem, economy, and culture.
Wild, Never Farmed
At Premier Catch, we’re proud to offer only wild-caught Alaskan salmon, sustainably harvested by American fishermen. Our lineup includes King (Chinook), Sockeye, and Coho (ground), each with its own flavor, texture, and nutrition profile.
• Wild King Salmon: Rich, buttery, and prized for its high omega-3 content.
• Wild Sockeye Salmon: Vibrant red, firm, and full-flavored—perfect for grilling or sushi.
• Wild Coho Salmon Meat: Milder and leaner, ideal for family dinners and meal prep.
No antibiotics. No dyes. No shortcuts. Just pure, wild salmon, flash-frozen at the peak of freshness to lock in nutrients and flavor.
Celebrate with Salmon
Looking for ways to celebrate National Salmon Day? Here are a few ideas:
• Fire up the grill for a Cedar-Planked Wild King Salmon dinner.
• Try something new like Sockeye Salmon Crudo or Salmon Smash Burgers.
• Add a few salmon portions to your freezer and share them with family or friends. Nothing says love like wild salmon delivered to the door.

From Our Family to Yours
Salmon has always been part of our lives, not just our business. Our family spends summers fishing in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. Those days remind us why we do what we do: to share a sense of connection, adventure, and respect for the ocean with every family who brings Premier Catch to their table.
Why It Matters
Every purchase of wild salmon supports American fishermen, protects ocean ecosystems, and helps ensure that future generations can experience the same incredible resource we do today. By choosing Premier Catch, you’re not just buying seafood, you’re helping preserve a legacy.
