Alaska Wild Sockeye

Alaska Wild Sockeye Salmon season has now begun and the fish are running strong. Their deep red flesh is the most flavorful of the salmon species. From an opening near the Kenai River in Cook Inlet, these beautiful, live-bled and ocean-bright fish are shipping head off and gutted with a delivered price of $7.90. Also landing there are King Salmon and the price is down to $10.90 for H&G fish.

The Washington Post ran an interesting article this week featuring Sea to Table’s work with NOAA on the invasive Lionfish problem.

Worldwide awareness of the plight of wild fish increases. European fish stocks are in an unprecedentedly poor state yet fish consumption remains high. A new report highlights Europe’s increasing reliance on fish originating from external waters and, following America’s leadership, provides pointers towards a more sustainable future for dwindling global fish stocks.

Our fishermen are out catching very beautiful fish for us this week.
