You don't really need a pressure cooker to can. A big pot works fine. You can buy a big canning pot at Wally World.
Fish that is canned "jarred" needs to be cooked at 15psi for 100 minutes minimum. So a pressure cooker would be required.
Alternatively, you can find multiple fish processing facilities that will clean, vacuum seal, flash freeze, then ship your fish to you. They'll even hold them until you get back, and then send them to you.
These facilities are everywhere across all popular fishing locations in Alaska.
