The Alaskan waters of the Copper Glacier on the rugged Mount Wrangall is home to the Wild Copper River King Salmon. The mighty King Salmon braves the 300 mile trip to the spawning grounds, surviving treacherous conditions, building firm muscles, muscles fueled by Omega-3 oil. That's more Omega-3 oil than -any other fish in the world!
The King arrives back in the rivers in early May. The salmon are hand-picked from the icy Alaskan waters, rushed to the shore and delivered to our stores...for the freshest, richest tasting salmon available.
Only at Big Y and Only For a Limited Time.
