A sign for many that summer has o-fish-cially begun!
Straight from the frigid waters of the Copper River in Alaska, the first delivery of fresh salmon arrived today at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
Nearly 17,200 pounds of wild Alaska Copper River Salmon was flown by Alaska Air Cargo — the first of many shipments expected this season, which runs now through September.
The celebratory “first fish,” sponsored this year by Copper River Seafoods, weighed in at 30 lbs.
