I love my “Member's Mark Wild Caught Alaskan Sockeye Salmon, Frozen (2 lbs) Item # 980172673”. I’m now on my 4th package since I found them. 1st off, they’re 100% WILD CAUGHT (not farm-raised) – the back of my packages read, “Catch Method: NET CAUGHT, Harvest area: NORTHEAST PACIFIC OCEAN”. Not only do they cook perfectly, but I haven't hit the 1st bone yet. Each pkg (so far) has 5 vacuum-packed indiv. fillets – that’s so convenient, cook what you want when you want. I move the ones I want to cook from the freezer to the fridge the day before to thaw. Then I pan sautee’ with butter (Smart Balance), salt and pepper squeeze a little fresh lemon juice on top. Towards the end I dump one pan-sauteed chopped yellow onion on top for good measure – but that’s me! I cook on med./low for ~5mins per side, and they come out PERFECTLY. I just love these Frozen Wild Caught Salmon Fillets!!

We like this product but buyer beware. It says Wild Caught QUALITY. it is not wild caught. I don't appreciate their play on words to trick us. Read the back of the package carefully and you will see it is not wild caught. That being said, they are still good.

To start, I found small bones as I was chewing so be cautious. The salmon is good for the convenience, good price, good size for a single serving. I think if cooked well, you can create a delicious dish. It's obviously frozen- not fresh so the taste will differ but overall not bad :)

I would not buy this product again, ever. Paid about $12/pound for this item. Once you open the package you will find 3 pieces of TAIL AND 3 pieces of HEAD only. The most undesirable and cheap portions of a salmon. The picture on the package is miss leading.

This Salmon is a good price however, I first cooked it thawed out for the time it states on the back of the package and even though I thought it seemed like to long I followed it anyway and it was so tough! The second time we cooked it, we cooked it frozen to see if that would make a difference, again I thought the cook time even frozen seemed very long and only cooked for 15 minutes and it was slightly overcooked, had I followed the package and cooked up to 25 mins it probably would have been not good enough to eat. Otherwise the fish is good!

Most economical way to add an Alaskan wild caught fish, that is not farmed, and that is also very high in Omega 3 oil fatty acids, and low in Mercury and Lead, to a healthy diet. Eating a quality fish at least twice a week is necessary for a healthy diet and this Member's Mark Wild Caught Alaskan Sockeye meets the bill and allows me to save money, PLUS it is very delicious. I incorporate the filets into many recipes or just grill it straight out of the package, after defrosting. The package is 3 lbs, and the fillets are meal sized. I love that there are no other additives or seasonings, and I can add my own. It is flash frozen very soon after processing. If I go to the fish store to get fresh salmon from Alaska, if it can be had, it costs $24/lb. Scottish salmon, which is farmed, is about $20 to $24 a lb also, so this is a much affordable buy for my family.

Lots of negative reviews commenting on the taste and dryness. I have never had a problem and been buying this product for at least 6 or 7 years. I just season with salt and lemon pepper and pan fry it. Maybe 5-6 minutes per side. Start with skin side up in the pan. Always great. I tried some that was already seasoned and don't need that. I like that it is wild caught and a product of the USA. The individually frozen packs are convenient for me. I just take one out the night before I plan to cook it and leave it in the refrigerator in the vacuum pack. Rinse it off with cold water before I season it and have my cast iron skillet hot and ready. I use just a bit of olive oil in the pan. Maybe a teaspoon at most. Rarely have I found scales left on the skin or a bone. I try to have salmon every Sunday night so that I know I am eating it once a week.

We love salmon, and used to eat the frozen Member's Mark ATLANTIC salmon every week, without fail. However, this new product is not edible. It had a strong, almost foul, taste; and the texture was both tough and rubbery. My husband and I are not picky eaters - nor do we waste expensive meats - so this $22.93 bag of "Alaskan" sockeye salmon ended up being fed to our farm animals.

I have bought this Alaskan sockeye for years. It is expensive, but less so than at other places and the quality was excellent. On a recent trip to Sam’s, I noticed the packaging is different - the bag looks the same, but it now says “Pacific Northwest Sockeye Salmon” and the back of the bag says “product of China.” This is NOT the same Alaskan salmon from the past, and likely the reason for all the recent negative reviews. I did not purchase, and will not, until the original product returns (if ever.). Really disappointed Sam’s has replaced the original with an inferior product.

I would only buy wild caught with no additives for fish. As far as Sam's goes this is the best frozen fish. Good size portions, roughly 3-4 oz pieces. I cook it in the sous vide then add melted butter, lemon, dill and salt and pepper. I can recommend it, 4 stars because it does smell “fishy” not totally fresh but not bad. In 4 servings so far, I have not encountered a single bone. I will buy it again, good source of protein.
