Wes Erikson’s family has been in the commercial fishing industry for a long time, four generations to be exact. Today, he has an active career as both fisherman and chef.
Wes has been involved in fisheries advisory processes for more than two decades, and cooking for longer than that. Growing up cooking on his father’s boat, and later training under renowned chefs, Wes realized his passion for food and food preparation early in life.
Today, Wes gets the best of both worlds. He has owned and operated seafood restaurants for the past 15 years, and been able to supply much of the seafood he serves from his own fishing boat and from local fishermen who share his commitment to quality.
At the CCFCC 2011 National Conference this year, Wes will be donating halibut on behalf of the BC Halibut Fishery with the help of Aero Trading Co., a processing company that will handle the halibut. We look forward to what he brings to the table!
