About Red Cliff Fish Company

Not all freshwater fish are created equal. Ours are wild caught in the pristine waters off the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior – the coldest, cleanest and deepest of the world’s Great Lakes. Home to thriving populations of whitefish, lake trout and a multitude of other species, this unique ecosystem yields a bounty unlike any other. We know, because we’ve been fishing these waters our whole lives. Just like our parents, grandparents, and the generations that came before them.

We’re the Red Cliff Fish Company, your local source for the best fish the Great Lakes have to offer. Entirely owned and operated by the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, we’re proud to share our catch with you, because fishing is more than what we do – it’s at the center of who we are.

To bring you the best freshwater fish available anywhere, our practices and procedures have to be worthy of the treasures Lake Superior surrenders. If we don’t honor that bounty at every stage of its journey to your plate, then we’ll have fallen short of our responsibility to you and to the lake that sustains our Tribal community. Neither the catch nor those who share in it deserve anything less. That’s why we view ourselves as more than fisherman, more than expert processors, packers and shippers. We’re guardians of the lake and stewards of the catch. And the proof of our commitment is in every bite you take.

To preserve the health of our ecosystem, Red Cliff Fish Co.’s whitefish and lake trout fisheries close from October 24 – November 28 during the spawning period.
