“World Famous Red Lake Walleye”

Red Lake Nation Foods is pleased to announce the return of the Red Lake Fisheries, the oldest and largest freshwater walleye processing plant in the United States. Our fish are caught one at a time, by tribal fishermen & women using the old fashioned “hook and line” method.

Red Lake, the namesake of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians, is the 6th largest natural, freshwater lake in the United States, just behind the five Great Lakes.

The Red Lake Band has operated a commercial fishery on Red Lake since 1917, when it was begun during World War One to provide a source of fresh meat for Minnesota citizens.  It is the only commercial hook & line walleye fishery and one of the largest freshwater commercial fisheries in the United States. Today, the fishery supports several hundred commercial fishers and their families on the reservation, and is important to the off-reservation economy as well.

We can ship our fillets fresh or frozen (IQF) to your business or home overnight via FedEx, so you can order today, enjoy tomorrow!
