Skipper Otto is a Community Supported Fishery (CSF) that provides Canadian home cooks with delicious wild seafood, caught by small-scale, independent fishing families. 

Founders Sonia and Shaun Strobel created Canada’s first CSF in 2008 to support independent harvesters in coastal and Indigenous communities. At the time, Shaun’s dad, Otto, wanted to be paid a fair price for his catch and to be connected to other seafood lovers. As members told their friends, demand for their high-quality seafood grew. Since then, Skipper Otto has grown into a nationwide leader for seafood system reform, and the best source of quality, fisher-direct seafood found in Canadian waters.

Skipper Otto members prepay for their share of the catch ahead of the season and enjoy delicious, high-quality seafood year-round, from wild sockeye salmon and halibut to Pacific oysters and scallops. Members can choose to collect their seafood orders from one of our 80+ Community Partners across Canada, or try our convenient home delivery service in select locations.

Our community shares our goal of protecting ocean resources and improving local food systems for generations to come. Are you ready to join?
