Wild Hook

Just untied from Westport, Washington this morning.
I'm chasing tuna off the Washington & Oregon coast, hoping to bring some back for our weekly markets this winter.

The boat is getting switched over for hook and line albacore tuna fishing. My first trip!

Weather buoys provide us fishermen and mariners with real-time information on wind wave height and period, sea surface temperature, and more. They're a great aid to our decision-making while at sea.

For the sea lions, they provide a nice offshore spot to hang out and relax.

Huge thanks to everyone who came out for our grand opening party 🙏

We were blown away by the support! We estimated over 200 people stopped in throughout the event😮🎉

We had incredible help from family, friends, and even some of our talented market friends (Claudio and Susan) who surprised us with a fabulous musical performance 🎸🎶🎻

The goal of this event was simple: make it fun so that we'd want to do it again. After talking with friends and family, the verdict is in — we had fun 😊

So, we're doing it again!🥳

Consider this our first annual Spring Wild Fish Party in Ebnat-Kappel 🐟

Next year, you're all invited - whether you came this time or would like to come next time.

It'll be fun!!!

One and a half years in the making!

Between my fishing seasons, Annina's work, raising a family, and keeping our regular markets going, this long transition period is finally almost over.

With the help of family, friends, great contractors, lots of pallets, some old barn wood and many late nights, we've now renovated an old bottling warehouse into our new production kitchen, cold storage hall, and retail space.

It's all coming together!

Stop by and come check out what we've been up to.
Taste a variety of our wild seafood and enjoy the afternoon/evening with us.

Grand Opening Party
Saturday, March 29 | 3-7 PM
Seafood on the grill, chowder, burgers, tastings, drinks, and good company.

Those sea otters sure seem to enjoy life.
We see them all summer along the Southeast Alaska coast where I fish-tons of them.

In past centuries, they were nearly wiped out by overhunting, but 20th-century conservation efforts have allowed them to bounce back in most areas.
