Sockeye salmon is more than a rich-flavored, healthy meal. Trace its journey from ocean to plate and see the jobs it provides across the country, the sustainable fishing operations, and the uniquely American industry rooted in pristine Bristol Bay. A video of Leader Creek Fisheries, photos from fisherman-photographer, Chris Miller, and a recipe from the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute reveal that sockeye nourishes not just the body, but a way of life.
