Alaskans Own

04/16/2026

It can be hard to find sustainably harvested, premium quality wild Alaska seafood that you can trust. That’s why we created Alaskans Own and launched our own Community Supported Fishery in 2009, providing a direct way for seafood lovers to source Alaska seafood from a supplier they could trust.

When you become an Alaskans Own Seafood Share member, you get to enjoy a monthly delivery of wild Alaska seafood harvested by small-boat fishermen and treated with the utmost care and respect. You can also feel good knowing that your dollars are staying in Alaska’s fishing communities and supporting fishery conservation efforts.

Learn more about our Seafood Share options and choose one that’s right for you (sign up by May 18 to receive your first monthly seafood share in May).

Not sure where to buy Alaska Rockfish? We’ve got a limited supply of Yelloweye Rockfish that was recently harvested in a small local fishery. Larger than other Rockfish species, Yelloweye Rockfish are prized for their mild sweet flavor and firm fillets and cook beautifully in a pan or on the grill.

Fresh Catch Alert!! We just received a limited supply of Yelloweye Rockfish from our local processor Seafood Producers Cooperative (thanks Alaska Gold Seafood !). This Yelloweye Rockfish was sustainably harvested this spring by local longline fishermen during a carefully-managed directed fishery out of Sitka.

If you don’t already know about Yelloweye Rockfish, then you’re in for a treat! Yelloweye Rockfish are a premium white fish found in the Gulf of Alaska. Larger and slower growing than other rockfish, Yelloweye Rockfish have a mild, sweet flavor and firm texture. It’s incredibly versatile and works especially well for stews, pan-seared, or on the grill. Pair it with one of our Pantry Favorites for a delicious no-fuss meal.

Order some online or stop by our Sitka office (304 Baranof St) while supplies last!

Meet one of our local Sitka fishermen and longtime Alaska Longline Fishermen’s Association Board Members, Terry Perensovich.

A lifelong Sitkan, Terry has always chosen the non-traditional path and began fishing during the “derby days” despite his father’s urging to choose a more stable career. In addition to fishing, Terry wears a lot of other hats, including shipwright, trapper, construction worker, and caretaker (not to mention fantastic baker as well!). From a young age, Terry felt that it was always important to be diversified. “I don’t want job security,” he jokes,” You go stale if you do the same thing every day.” Spoken like a true fisherman as Terry explains why he chose fishing over stability. “It’s important to have a diverse skillset in today’s world,” Terry explains as he reflects on all the jobs he has held over the years.

For many years, Terry fished out of a skiff for both salmon and halibut - he liked the simplicity of a smaller boat and being able to fish solo. Today, he fishes from the F/V Myrna D, an old wooden boat that he acquired after it was destroyed by a fire. Terry spent two decades restoring the old wooden boat, utilizing his shipwright and carpentry skills to bring her back to life and back out on the fishing grounds.

As the Forest Service moves through its revision of the Tongass Forest Management Plan over the coming months, we hope that it listens to what local fishermen and businesses throughout the region want and need: “the restoration and protection of spawning habitat that results in increased stock levels of wild fish.”

What is a Seafood Share? It’s a monthly delivery of premium quality wild Alaska seafood, sustainably harvested by local fishermen. You choose which Seafood Share you want (Seafood Variety, Salmon Lover’s, White Fish), how many pounds of fish you want each month, and how many months you want to receive fish. Seafood Shares are a great way to ensure you’ve always got wild Alaska seafood in your freezer, meaning that a healthy delicious meal is just minutes away.

All monthly Seafood Shares feature hook-and-line wild Alaska seafood that’s been flash frozen and vacuum-packed, sealing in the fish’s freshness soon after it’s caught.

This year’s Seafood Share communities include: Sitka, Juneau, Anchorage, Fairbanks, Seattle, and Point Roberts (WA).
