Seanna Seafoods Commercial

Did you know that we have our own video? We were also featured on a German television show. Our video is on our website for Seanna Seafoods. We are going to post it here so that you can all learn a bit more about what goes into trolling.

Some of you may be involved in a fishery while other may have only just heard about Alaska Fisheries. Many fishing families take part in more than one area. It is a very stressful industry. Most of the money is made in the summer time, and if the season isn't a good one fishing families must rely on other types of income. The Seanna itself spent many summers in Southeast Alaska as a purse seiner. It held of up to five men (and women) a seine and a skiff.

To check the video on the Seanna and how we support our fisheries, go here.
To check out how Purse Seining works on a boat local to Sitka, Alaska (where the Seanna also fishes out of), click here to see the Pillar Bay in action.

Here is a picture of crew from 2008.
