Welcome to Cascade Aqua Farms!

Cascade Aqua Farms is an eco-friendly company that has been maintaining sustainable aquaculture practices in Washington State since 1980. We have perfect conditions for producing steelhead using the natural icy cold water from the snowmelt high in the Cascade Mountains.

We have also developed an ideal system for raising consistently strong, healthy fish and delivering them fresh all year round to wholesale suppliers across the country.

Steelhead: Oncorhynchus Mykiss

Steelhead are native to cold water tributaries of North America. Steelhead can weigh up to 55lbs and reach 45” inches. The body is silvery and streamlined with a round head. This silver color and round head is what gives steelhead its name. There are black dots that are more concentrated on the back of the fish. Steelhead also develop a pink horizontal stripe. Their meat is a rich red color, texture is tender with great flavor.

Since our steelhead are raised in pristine snowmelt water, it is safe to consume raw. Any way you prepare it, grilled, baked, seared, poached, or smoked; it is sure to impress.
