Dear Fisherman's,
I fished on the Independence on its last 7 day trip and I chose your plant to process my fish. Wow! What a great job you guys did preparing the fish. Delivered on time as promised, perfectly cut and sealed.
My wife is a scientist in the lab of a local hospital and she shared some of the smoked fish with other employees at the hospital. They could not get enough so she promised to bring more the next day. People who were not scheduled to work that day showed-up to have more fish. Near riot conditions occurred with people pulling and tugging at the packages. You created a monster with you product. Good work. You've earned my business.
Sincerely,
Dennis B

Dear Fisherman's Processing,
I just wanted to thank you for doing an excellent job packing my fish from my American Angler trip last week. I had come in the week before just to look
Thank you,

Hi Sean,
First off, thank you very much for the excellent job your operation did with our catch!
I and several friends left on a 5 day trip on the Royal Polaris on July 16 and to make a long story short, we did very well on this trip. It was decided that we'd pool all our fish and use Fisherman's Processing service since we were traveling caravan style. What you need to understand is that I don't normally use a processor at all, preferring to take mine home to cut and vacuum pack them myself. However majority rule was in effect and I didn't have any real objection anyway. With our fish being taken care of we then went to breakfast and returned about an hour or so later.
My first impression of your operation was that it was very clean and well set up for the work flow. As we began to see the finished finished product coming out to be packed into the coolers, the quality looked excellent! Everything was clearly labeled and the young man who was helping us load the coolers inspected every single bag of fish to make certain it was well sealed! (And brother, we had a LOT of bags!) If memory serves he actually did find a total of six bags that hadn't sealed well. (This was an extremely small percentage out of between 1,400 and 1,500 lbs. of finished product we received!) These packages were immediately taken back inside, rebagged, and resealed for us.
Even with the large amount of fish we had caught, we were iced down, loaded up, and on the road home by 11:00 am that morning, exactly the time we'd been told!
Given the timeliness of the service, the cleanliness of the facility, and the quality of the product, I have no doubt that our group would use you folks in the future!
Thanks again!,

P.S. I smoke my own fish and we didn't have any done by you, but I did try the samples both on the dock, at your facility, and on the boat. I can highly recommend your smoked fish as well. It was delicious!
Dear Fisherman's Processing,
Thank you very much for the awesome service and final product after my recent 5 day RP trip. Your facilities are the most modern, clean and well run. Most importantly, the fish came out looking great!
I must admit I was really impressed. As a customer of another well known and highly regarded fish processor I can say it's great to have options.
Best wishes,

Hi. I just wanted to tell you how pleased I am about the quality of your processing and your customer service in general. My order arrived in New York by FedEx this morning with everything well packed and frozen. I had some Wahoo sashimi this afternoon and smoked Wahoo for dinner. Both were superb, especially the smoked Wahoo which was moist and very flavorful. I can hardly wait to try my smoked Yellowfin and the smoked Yellowtail!!! I know you will be very successful when the word gets around that you do such a great job. Please feel free to use this letter for your advertising if you wish to.
Sincerely,

Sean,
Thank you for the time and attention given to my catch on my 8 day RS trip earlier this Summer. Being an out-of-towner, I was very happy to receive my perfectly processed catch of BFT, YFT, YT, smoked ALB and smoked YT, all solidly fresh frozen and air freighted to Oakland via Southwest and in eight 50 lb boxes. Many others (family, friends, office) have enjoyed this bounty, and we have had sashimi, sushi, pokey, ceviche, seared, baked, barbequed, smoked on bagels, left-over as tuna noodle casserole ...etc, all far superior to store-bought fresh and frozen in my area. Thanks again, Mike G.

Hi Sir,
I am the member of the Samoa Independent Full Gospel church, I would like to say thank you so much for the fresh fish. During these economical hardship times, my family and I would not be able to purchase fresh fish. Thank you for your donation - it was truly a blessing. My prayer to the Lord is to keep your company growing and bless you as your thoughtfulness continues to bless others.
God Bless,
Sabrina
With 6 long range trips under my belt on the Royal Polaris I can tell you that I was happy when they went to RSW (refrigerated seawater), but now that they are affiliated with Fisherman's Processing I'M ECSTATIC!
Normally I ship my fish since I'm staring down the barrel of a long drive to the Santa Cruz Mountains. When you have fished hard and had a successful trip the last thing you want to do is wait long hours or overnight for your catch to be processed. From the Royal Polaris to my van everything was flawless and completed in a timely manner. Years ago I had the opportunity to work for a friend's smokehouse and I can appreciate the clean, efficient environment at Fisherman's Processing. The staff was very capable, informative and FRIENDLY... Even when dealing with a sleep-deprived client like me. I was also happy to learn that I could donate fish to FISH. FOOD. FEEL GOOD. of San Diego and help those in need.
The day after I got back from my 7-day trip I hosted a sushi party at home and my husband, friends and neighbors were blown away by the quality of the yellowtail I caught. In the future I look forward to repeat business with Fisherman's Processing and more adventures on the Royal Polaris!
