Their fish is truly the best! We buy from the Redmond Farmers market and they make it so easy- fresh fish is pre-bagged into perfectly cut fillets and it goes into a slightly bigger sealed bag with chopped ice so it stays cool after you buy it. I was wary of the smoked fish but it is incredible- highly recommend taking some home to try (smoked fish comes in different flavors and the smoke is light and delicate, in a very good way). Beyond the exceptional fish quality, the family is kind and helpful and since they caught it, they're a great resource to talk about their fish. You get what you pay for and it feels good to support them.

Mouth is still watering from the delicious smoked salmon I got at the Ballard Farmers Market last sunday. It paired amazingly well with a spinach salad and some fresh organic squash and fall vegetables. David and the other fisherman bring a smile to my face every sunday and truly lift spirits all throughout the market with their positive energy. Grateful to have this kind of high quality smoked salmon just blocks away at our local market (: Keep it up guys!!

Not only are the owners some of the sweetest people I've ever met, but this is hands down the best fish we've ever had. The King salmon is succulent, the smoked salmon is light with just the right amount of smoke...and if they have halibut it is some of the lightest, sweetest fish around. Worth a trek to the market to stock up!

I recently served a beautiful piece of fresh king salmon from Wilson Fish at a dinner party. I got several comments such as" This is the best salmon I have ever had." Another reviewer complained about the price. I say, you get what you pay for. This is fresh locally caught fish. Tim, David and Gene are all helpful and friendly. I listened to a story on NPR recently that said nearly 30% of fish sold in the US is either mislabeled for actual type of fish, or country of origin. I like to know where my food is from, and I like to know who provides it. Their smoked salmon is absolutely wonderful.

This is THE BEST smoked salmon I have ever had. The folks selling the fish are the nicest people you'd ever want to meet.

Freshest fish, flavorful smoked salmon. They also home deliver although there's a min order amount. We have weekly fish dinner that's the favorite of the family and guests.

They don't sell the head of the fish (or the whole fish). I took a photo of the price at Ballard market. Will need to come back and try it one day.

Delicious fresh and smoked fish. Love their smoked black cod and king salmon! Nicest people and great customer service. Wonderful family run business. I can't say enough good things about them.
