… SOFT-SHELL CRABS! — Fresh SHRIMPMEAT — Live CRAYFISH — HALIBUT / SALMON / SOLE / ORANGE RUFFIE / CODS / SCALLOPS / OYSTERS / etc. / yesterday’s ‘Tail’ is below
FISH TAILS
- Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo, so today must be MAY the FOURTH be with you. And there hasn’t been much to crow about regarding the Orange & Black, but Friday (– or is it Saturday?) is Willie Mays’ 80th Birthday. Finally, Sunday is “You Better Remember to Call Your Mom” Day.
- Speaking of orange, there’s ORANGE ROUGHY expected in with our JOHN DORY on Friday.
- What’s new? The Local KING SALMON season hasn’t produced any real numbers yet, the seas are pretty choppy outside, and the price remains high … but we do have Kings, mostly from OR, and just a few Local ones.
- SOFT-SHELL CRABS for Mom’s Day are gonna happen!! We’re hoping to pick ‘em up at SFO so you could have ‘em by Friday. PRIMES = $44.00 per dz, and HOTELS = 34.
- Speaking of pricing, all of the Oyster shippers from up north & back east, (and even some of the Tomales Bay growers) have recently implemented a price-hike (yeh-yeh, same ol’ cost-of-gas story), and we have to finally give in and follow suit.
- Typically for Mother’s Day, the big volume items are DRY-PACK SCALLOPS, DUNG. CRABMEAT & Fresh CKD SHRIMPMT, OYSTERS, SMOKED SALMON, SALMON , & HALIBUT. Reserve your numbers as soon as you have an idea!
- Other than that, a heckuva nice selection, and a lotta’ tonnage … check out da’ Hot-Sheet, and May da’ 4th be with you.
