FISH TAILS
- WILD STRIPED BASS! — Looking at last year’s numbers, we had zero to very little Striped Bass from April thru November … this week’s shipment may be our last shipment for a while, so jump on ‘em while you can.
- Also, try our Suzuki-quality Farmed REAL STRIPED BASS, not hybrids, running about 3-5 lbs ea. The operation up near Sacramento has always sold these alive, so they don’t even have an ice-machine yet. They’ve been arriving to us alive, and we have to plunge ‘em into a slush solution to shut down their system!
- As usual this time of year, plenty of other ‘BASS‘ available.
- On to HALIBUT — the Northern HALIBUT price has dropped considerably from initial quotes. Both SoCAL and LOCAL are available, too.
- With calmer seas, we should start seeing more Pacific fish. You’ll be able to count on ROCK COD this week, and not have to resort to Pollock as a sub. Some Fresh (not thawed) J-Cut BLACK COD coming down from Canada, (with a price hike). PETRALE and less expensive SOLES are gonna be in. And several boats left the dock today to go hunt down and dig out their crab-traps, (which have been out there for a while) … we’re expecting to have CRABS this week. Finally, we’d expect to hear from the Tomales Bay OYSTER growers that they’ll be harvesting somtime this week … stay tuned.
- Our least expensive Fresh Crabmeat is the Maine ROCK/JONAH CRABMT, excellent on its own, or blend it with DUNG. CRBMT in your CrabCakes to help bring your costs down.
- Price-List above … Hot-Sheet below … More ‘Tails’ later …
