we are redefining “farm-raised”
Other hatcheries raise fish indoors in plastic pools, fed recycled water with aerators under fluorescent lighting.
We are not other hatcheries.
How is our trout raised differently?
-
All of our trout are grown and raised in the fresh mountain spring mineral water that comes out of the rocks only meters away from the hatchery building. The water that comes from this limestone aquifer has a natural pH of 8 and flows at about 3,000 gallons/minute.
-
Because the ecosystem of the stream is extremely healthy, there are a lot of naturally occurring bugs and vertebrates that grow in the water that the fish feed on.
In addition to bug food that naturally occurs in the ponds and water, we feed our fish the best quality feed we have been able to find thus far. This feed is 65% protein and fat from ocean-based fish products. There is a 4% grain fiber included, which is the lowest grain fiber feed we have been able to source. The last 30% is plant products and trace minerals to ensure a balanced nutrient make-up.
-
The raceways, ponds, and fish are never treated with chemicals or antibiotics. Instead, they are carefully moved frequently and are stocked in lower densities so that they grow naturally and healthily.
-
Our fish are tested and confirmed to have ZERO traces of microplastics and are 100% mercury-safe.

How will your trout arrive?
Why you should make room in the freezer
I just got my first box and was absolutely blown away by just how good this fish is. We picked this thing dry off the bone like animals. EASILY the best quality fish I've ever cooked at home.
The cleanest tasting fish I have ever had. So delicate and delicious. Will be buying from you again!
Quick delivery and excellent quality, as always. This trout is absolutely delicious, healthy, and easy to prepare; I had friends over and they raved about it!
Complete satisfaction with the purchase, the shipping and the product. Delicious, healthy fish that we intend to keep on hand from now on.
Better than I anticipated for sure. Shared some with friends and they asked immediately where I got it. Great products and wonderful story.
Love how fresh it is. Such a treat to serve it for just us, or for friends.
Excellent product and service. I was born and raised in Montana and was delighted to find a fresh product that tasted exactly like what I caught in the Bob Marshall Wilderness as well as the upper Missouri and Yellowstone river drainages of my childhood. If you love trout give them a try.
The cakes and filet were delicious. Excited to try the smoked fish now! The shipping was fast and you can tell it's quality trout.
The trout arrived on time and was delicious. Most farm raised trout has pink and fatty meat, BUT this fish reminded me of the trout we caught in the Smoky Mountains growing up. Our family already ordered more whole fresh trout because everyone enjoyed it so much.
Great value! If you haven't had the smoked trout, you are missing out! You really can't find this kind of quality in many places.
