Tuna
Our frozen-at-sea albacore tuna is available in sushi-grade loins, cold-smoked lox, or canned.
Salmon
We catch all five Pacific salmon species: sockeye, chinook, coho, chum and pink salmon. Our salmon is available in sushi-grade frozen fillets to cold-smoked lox, and candied nuggets to canned.
Shellfish
We carry an array of shellfish, including frozen-at-sea pink and spiny scallops in the shell and pacific oysters, to fresh live offerings such as mussels, beach oysters, and Dungeness crab.

Sustainability That's
Anchored In Community
In Canada, 90% of what is caught is exported, while 80% of the seafood eaten here is imported from foreign fisheries. This is happening because the industrial seafood system is rooted in colonialism, not sustainability.
You deserve better. So we’ve built a more resilient and local system that feeds Canadians with Canadian seafood from coastal and Indigenous communities.
From Our Family
To Yours
Sonia and Shaun Strobel founded Skipper Otto in 2008 to connect home-cooks to high-quality seafood caught by small-scale, independent fishing families like theirs. Since then, they have built an innovative Community Supported Fishery that provides the best seafood found in Canadian waters and leads the charge against social and environmental injustice. They continue their mission today because it’s personal — for them and the fishing families they serve.
