Copper River Salmon...WHAT A CATCH!

Copper River Salmon...WHAT A CATCH!

The Copper River is a 290-mile (470 km) river in south-central Alaska in the United States. It drains a large region of the Wrangell Mountains and Chugach Mountains into the Gulf of Alaska. It is known for its extensive delta ecosystem, as well as for its prolific runs of wild salmon, which are among the most highly prized stocks in the world.

 

The river's famous salmon runs arise from the use of the river watershed by over 2 million salmon each year for spawning. The extensive runs result in many unique varieties, prized for their fat content. The river's commercial salmon season is very brief, beginning in May for chinook salmon and sockeye salmon for periods lasting days or hours at a time. Sport fishing by contrast is open all year long, but peak season on the Copper River lasts from August to September when the silver salmon (aka coho salmon) runs. B & E Meats and Seafood is pleased to bring this unique taste experience from the pristine waters of the Copper River to the tables of our customers.
