Alaska Salmon Quality Control Standards Egegik, Bristol Bay

This video is the first in a series that explore Bristol Bay and the fishermen we work with. For people that are not familiar with the region, this gives background on the quality of fish that we offer and how we work with local fishermen within the framework of alaskan law.

Ty Stafford, director of Fishing operations, explains how to tell if a fish is good enough to make it to our processor. Toward the end of the video, the wind is very strong and drwons out a few sylables but overall, you get the idea of what we go through.

There are three tests he discusses:

1) Firmness

2) Gils

3) Scales
