Small Boat Salmon

OUR STORY

​Fishing runs in our family.

Picture
The whole shebang was started by Peter Crimp and Paula Cullenberg, who, after fishing in Bristol Bay for 25 years, decided that they wanted to start bringing more than a couple of fillets back to Anchorage for friends and family. With the purchase of a direct-marketing license as well as a damn good knife-sharpener, Small Boat Salmon was born.

Now son James and friends run the harvesting side of the operation, catching, handling, and icing your fish with care, while P&P use their trained hands to gill and clean the fish back at the cabin, before shipping them off to hungry Alaskans in Anchorage and Fairbanks. 

While James Crimp lives outside of Alaska for much of the year, he has not left his love of the water and coastal communities. When the salmon aren't running in Bristol Bay,  James is living and adventuring in the Seattle area.

Matt Markey-Crimp is a lifelong fisherman, and, as his friends will tell you, an equally lifelong fish eater; nothing feels better than having a full freezer of salmon.  Matt is sadly taking a break from the fishing business in 2021 while completing his residency in family medicine at Swedish Hospital in Seattle, a pretty fishy town in its own right.  He looks forward to representing the family biz at Fish Expo, and maybe one day being fish camp doctor.

Galen Eggleston has been fishing with the Crimp-Cullenberg family since 2006. When he’s not fishing commercially he works as a photographer in Anchorage, AK. Current favorite salmon recipe: Salmon with Miso Butter Pasta.

Dale Markey-Crimp,  longtime explorer of new salmon recipes, is studying rural public policy at the University of Washington.  She and Captain Matt met at Williams College in 2011, and since that day her love and appreciation for wild Alaskan salmon has only grown.  When she’s not searching for and cooking up new and different salmon recipes, she’s reading, hiking, enjoying a #cocktailbyMatt, or training for her next half marathon. ​
