8.28.12

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
Local Swordfish and Tuna arrived this morning.  The quality of both is great.  Unfortunately, nothing is grading out to #2.  Only #1 and 2+ Tuna are available.  Local Wahoo looks fantastic.  We have about 100 pounds available; so get it while you can.  Spanish Mackerel are nice and average about 3 pounds.  Local Dory is still coming in and are around 3 pounds as well.  U/10 and 10/20 Scallops are excellent.  They are coming out of New Jersey.
 
We are already starting to see the effects of this soon to be hurricane.  No one is fishing in the Gulf of Mexico.  This means that we will not see any 16/20 Fresh Shrimp, Red Snappers, or Rock Shrimp.  We are hoping to get some Grouper from the West Coast.  The last of the Louisiana Lump and Jumbo Lump Crabmeat is en route to us now.  After that, we are going to bring in Maryland Crabmeat. 
 
Panama is sending us more head off and gutted Mahi Mahi.  These fish are always fantastic quality.  We are finally getting in 3/4 Chilean Turbot.  After a delay in shipping, these beauties will be here for delivery tomorrow.  Fire River Oysters are also set to arrive tonight from New Brunswick, Canada.
 
After a no show today, Wild King Salmon is on it's way here now.  Coho Salmon from Alaska is still running strong.  They are catching these fish at the mouth of the river so they don't have a chance to spawn up river yet.  Wild Pike came in from the Great Lakes.  They average about 4 pounds each.

Have a great day.
