What's so special about our Alaska Gold Halibut?
Simply put, our Alaska Gold Halibut is special for its luscious flake, its snow white meat that is naturally sweet with a delicate flavor, and its firm yet silky texture that retains its shape with any cooking style.
Take a trip aboard Captain Rob Bateman's boat the F/V Lea. In less than 4 minutes you'll get an insider's look at halibut fishing in southeast Alaska and get a sense of who we are--the fishermen-owned co-op behind the Alaska Gold brand.
In this video Captain Rob Bateman shows us what it's like to commercially fish for halibut in southeast Alaska and what it's like being a fishermen-owner of our co-op. He talks about what sustainability means for our co-op and small coastal communities like Sitka, Alaska.
A key point Rob makes is that as a commercial fisherman on a small boat he works with his hands, which is becoming a lost art. There is a beauty in being the captain of your own destiny to pursue freedom and happiness. Our co-op gives small producers a chance to make it on their own and follow this dream.
