We have been landing and shipping sashimi grade line-caught Fluke, day-boat Scallops, Monkfish and Porgies from our new friends on Long Island. Fish from boats landing at Montauk on Monday can arrive anywhere Tuesday, and with the Next Day Ground shipping option, a 10% local discount from Boston to Washington, DC.
Pink Snapper, Triggerfish, Gag Grouper, Mahi, Amberjack, Wahoo and Yellowfin Tuna from Beaufort, NC can reach from Tidewater across the Carolinas via Next Day Ground.
From local waters, next day direct from the boat, at pricing competitive with week old fish.
We are making plans to expand this program to additional fisheries, and are most excited about bringing increased value to both the fisherman and the chef.
From Alaska, the first net Salmon openings in the Southeast are expected shortly, and we are anticipating a bumper season. As some of you already know, one of the Halibut boats we work with, FV Cape Spencer, sank last week, with Captain Tom Tomrdl and his 3 crewmen safely rescued by the Coast Guard.
Walleye from the Red Lake Nation have finally begun flowing in earnest, and the chefs who have had the good fortune to get fish have been most pleased. We can now steadily please chefs across the country.
In the shadow of the epic Gulf spill, some bayou men are harvesting Crawfish from unaffected back waters, and we are shipping them fresh, boiled whole or tails. There does remain some IQF Gulf White Shrimp as well.
