Our fleet is proudly local.
We are real people who care about good food and good fishing.
The Oregon fleet is made up of independent family fishermen.
They’re your cousins, your neighbors, your fellow Oregonians... real men, women, and families who care about good food and good fishing. An Oregon Albacore fisherman is a rugged spirit driven by adventure, ready for the fast and furious action when the albacore start to bite… someone called to a life where hard work is rewarded by the beauty of the ocean, wind, and sky and the pride of bringing one of Oregon’s iconic food treasures to our tables.
It’s more than just a job.
Members of our Oregon Albacore fishing community feel personally accountable for the wholesomeness of the fish, the long-term sustainability of the fishery, and the health of our oceans. In the same way that local farmers and ranchers strive to deliver the best fresh vegetables and meats, local Oregon fishermen deliver the very best albacore, whether fresh, frozen, or micro-canned in small batches.
Meet the Fishermen
Our fishing grounds offer the best wild albacore.
Oregon fishermen catch our albacore when the schools come closer to the coast during their migration up the west coast of North America. Lucky for us, that’s perfect timing in the life cycle of an albacore – the fish have been feeding on the schools of rich anchovies and sardines in the coastal upwelling, so they’re flavorful and have more nutritious oils.
