What We’re Catching
Fish Processing
Processing
The best part of a fishing trip is cooking for friends and family when you return home. Once you’ve landed those salmon, halibut, lingcod, and rockfish your job is done. Salmon Falls resort fish processing is included all of our inclusive packages. Leave the cleaning, cutting, and packaging to our expert crew of fish processors.
Cuts & Yields
Our onsite expert fish processors will guide you to the correct cut whether it be steaks or fillets. Be sure to note the approximate yields of each fish: Salmon 45%, Halibut 45%, Lingcod-20%, Rockfish- 15%
Fish Boxes & Shipping
Our expert crew trim, filet, vacuum pack, and flash freeze your daily catch. Packaged into 25lb and 50lb boxes, your haul is ready for travel as checked luggage under most airline weight restrictions. Fish will stay frozen for approximately 20 hours, dependent upon location. At Salmon Falls Resort, on departure day, our onsite crew will ensure your fish boxes are loaded on the resort’s shuttle to accompany you on your airport transfer. If you plan to continue your travel before returning home, our crew can recommend shipping options for future delivery.
