CONTAINS FISH (ALASKA POLLOCK), WHEAT, MILK.
From the Source to the Plate: The Ultimate Fish Stick® with Wild Alaska Pollock
Commitment to Sustainability
With over 40 years of experience fishing the cold, icy waters off the coast of Alaska, our commitment to responsible fishing runs deep. We actively support research to keep our fisheries thriving and participate in the Alaska fishery management process, which is based on robust, sound science, and transparent governance. The Wild Alaska Pollock fishery is certified as sustainable by two independent and internationally recognized eco-certifications: Responsible Fisheries Management (RFM) and Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). They are also benchmarked by the Global Sustainable Seafood Initiative (GSSI) and aligned with the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries, the most comprehensive set of international standards and best practices for sustainable fisheries.
From the Source to the Plate
All Trident product is boxed with a date code that indicates the processing date, time and plant. We can use this information to trace back to when and what management area the fish was harvested, what vessel or tender the fish came from, and the quality of the fish when it entered our plant. Our work to design a third-party accredited social standard for our processing facilities exceeds industry norms.
How we catch Wild Alaska Pollock
We harvest Wild Alaska Pollock in the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska using a mix of Trident’s own vessels, like the Kodiak Enterprise, as well as more than 40 independently-owned vessels. Catcher processors process the fish onboard and catcher vessels deliver to one of our shore-based facilities in Akutan, Kodiak, or Sand Point (and sometimes to one of our partner’s plants). Regardless of where it is processed, our captains and plant managers are in constant communication with each other to ensure that we have the freshest fish possible. Most Wild Alaska Pollock is harvested with midwater trawls, which have zero contact with the ocean floor. Our captains use the latest technology, combined with decades of on-the-water experience, to target large schools of Wild Alaska Pollock, which allows them to avoid incidental catch. In fact, the Wild Alaska Pollock fishery is one of the cleanest fisheries in the world, with less than 1% of the catch being made up of incidentally caught species.

These fish sticks are twice as large as any other fish sticks that I’ve bought at the market. Excellent breading to fish ratio. I really feel like I’m eating fish sticks instead of “fish-flavored” sticks. I love to broil them and flip them to get them nice and crispy. Definitely the benchmark for fish sticks in terms of taste, texture, and composition.
orion Tom truver –
Wow!! Best fish sticks we have ever had. A splash of malt vinegar and your good to go!! I ate seven. Is that bad??
Har –
We are a family of four, we all love these fish sticks, we make sandwiches even pizza topping with them. We buy this 4 pound ultimate fisk stick package from Costco. The only downside is that we never able to close the zipper from the package, even we all take terns and try multiple times, so, we always have to place the original package into another package with zipper. The fish stick itself is great!
Dustin –
Real flakey fish inside these not batter filling. They are great from the oven; But just tried 3 from the microwave like the package suggests expecting it to be greasy which it was; However..: i just heated a couple of tortillas on the stovetop put 1 and a half fish sticks in a tortilla w cheese and the tortilla soaked up the grease it was surprisingly good.
Tracey –
My whole family absolutely loves these fish sticks! The name “Ultimate” is truly deserved because they’re whole strips of the most delicious fish perfectly coated in the crunchiest and lightest Panko breading. We recommend these to everyone and buy them at every Costco visit. We never thought we’d love fish sticks more as adults than as kids – but thanks to Trident and Costco, we do!!!!
Kath –
Craveworthy! And that said by someone who despised fish sticks so much while growing up that it is miraculous that I ever ate fish as an adult! Kudos for posting air fryer instructions on the corporate website. I look forward to seeing those instructions turn up on the packaging.
Sonia –
I buy these at Costco. They whole family loves them. I cook them in the airfryer. Crispy and simply the best.
Roger L Converse –
The best frozen fish we have ever had and we are very particular about any sea food or fish we eat and we harvest our own you have great products , It is so good I was promoting your product to the employees of the store I brought it from in Shady Cove Oregon the other day, I am in sales in another industry my Wife said I should be working for you the way I promote your product, Its just great product,
Gary Nesmith –
We are addicted to fish sandwiches made with 4 of these and a jumbo bun. A slice of cheese, and a generous amount of my own avocado oil tarter sauce, and this a breakfast I never tire of. We actually buy 3 bags of these every trip to Costco since we basically eat them every day. 10 minutes in the air fryer and the perfect fish sandwich every time!
Richard A Coletta –
You folks deserve all the adulation and success you garner. In 45 years of food service (and more years than that stuffing my face), your product is the absolute best. Keep it up. The best “fish story” I ever heard.
DON W –
I love these, and buy them at Costco all the time. I have them at least once a week or so. Also the Salmon Patties are WONDERFUL!!
My sister-in-law is from Japan, and she makes the fish sticks, adds BBQ sauce, and serves them with mashed potato. Not sure if that’s a Japanese thing or just something she came up with. I always like to try some new ideas.
Barbara Thibeault –
These are my favorite fish stick ever!! I buy them Everytime I go to Costco… Please never stop stocking them there !!!!
Andrew Hsu –
We buy these at Costco in the 4lb bag. These fish sticks are the best, especially when reheated in an air fryer. Accept no substitutions.
Carrie H –
I’m in Texas and we get this product from Costco. These really are the best fishsticks ever. I like to cook them a tad longer. I’ve had other products from Trident that are just as good. I’ve recommended these to friends.
Robert Baker –
The best fish sticks I’ve had in my whole life. Just discovered them recently: didn’t know such quality fish sticks existed. Gonna be on the grocery list from now on. Thanks, Trident
Gina Mottier –
Love these fish sticks smothered in tartar sauce. Good for fish tacos too.
Jeffrey Almberg –
I have tried every well known brand of fish stick and none of them compare to Trident. They always turn out well, crunchy and the fish tastes like fresh fish unlike many other brands.
Brandon P. –
By far the best fish stick! Actual strips of pollack fish fillet, not minced mystery fish. As a grown adult, eating them on a paper plate with some tartar sauce brings me back to being a kid. They’re also wonderful in a tortilla with some slaw for quick fish tacos. Accept nothing but the best!
Frances –
I just bought a bag. They are exactly as everyone here has said. I’m not a fish stick fan, but these are more like fish with a light layer of panko for crispiness. None of that ground of fish bits.
Kevin Gray –
These are just awesome. Hands down, the best. I get them at Costco. They’re a super handy snack. You can microwave them or heat them up in a toaster oven. They taste more like fish than bread. (great balance)
Josephine –
The fish stick taste really good. This product has improved compared to few years ago in terms of less batter. I am hoping the fish sticks could have improved to replace the vegetable oil with avocado oil. Vegetable oil is highly processed, hence highly inflammatory. So I won’t considered this product is heathy but delicious.
Jennifer –
Remember the fish sticks you ate when you were a kid? You can actually see and taste the fish. Not as much breathing as all the other “fish” sticks. This is something we always make sure we have on hand.
Gary –
Recently I began to eat frozen breaded fish. I quickly found that fillets were the way to go. I decided to look for fish sticks that are fillets and hopefully light on the breading.
I saw these at Costco and just had to try them. Wow, my life is changed!
With (Bob’s big boy) tarter sauce or with nothing at all, this fish fillets are great! I’m looking forward to making some Baja Mexico fish tacos. (tortilla, shredded cabbage, Crema Mexicana or Crema Salvadorena and lime)
Joni –
I love these fish sticks but more importantly my grandson loves them! Beats out chicken nuggets!
Craig Anderson –
These are absolutely the best fish sticks I’ve ever eaten. My whole family loves them. Great taste compared to what the other big grocery stores sale. I found these at our Local Cosco. Reasonably priced as well. They will continue to be in my grocery cart 👍
Jim Poe –
Other brands? Ha. What other brands.. THIS is the one and only. You almost cry if you ever run out of ’em.
Melanie –
These are THE best fish sticks I have ever had! They are very thick and filled with whole fish meat, not just some minced-up moosh like most other fish sticks. The breading is great and crisps nicely. I have been deep frying these so far, but I’m sure they are great baked or air-fried as well. My kids all love them, too! I hope I can find a way to buy these locally in my stores someday! I will be sad when our supply runs out! Highly recommend these for both adults and kids!
William –
I love these from the air fryer. So crisp and tasty, unlike most store-bought fish sticks that taste like breaded cardboard.
Michelle –
These are the best fish sticks we’ve ever had! We found them at Costco. We buy multiple bags at a time. Sometimes we eat them alone (dip in various sauces), chop up into a salad, put them in burritos or tacos. We cook them in our air fryer. Absolutely delicious!!!
