Buying fish direct

[deaner]

Just go on google maps and type fish market near Vancouver island. There is lots.

Probably are going to be paying retail. But still a lot cheaper than catching them yourself on a charter im thinkin...

I've checked those out. Better deal just buying it as Costco.....which is what we might end up doing.

Might check out local charters too. Always had good luck on charters until the last couple. The first three or four we went on I bet the fish worked out to under 5 bucks a pound. Sure sucks to spend thousands to come back with a tiny bit of fish. Fishing is fun, but for the price, there are other things I would rather do.

Figured it might be like beef.....sure you can pay retail, or buy it for 6 bucks a lbs hanging, or you can buy it off a farmer for market rate and have a full beef in the deep freeze for 2500. Looks like fish industry might be different

I hate Costco. Im willing to pay extra to not go there.


That said, having a real hard time finding good steaks anywhere these days.

Might have to bite the bullet and see if they are as good as people claim

They are good steaks and brisket. Never had bad meat from Costco actually.

I found a local lady that sells beef though. Best ribeye I've ever had

Except for a 4H critter every few years we buy exclusively from Costco, it’a AAA, most grocery stores are AA.

Ha! That's funny, I've been following them for a while, and keep saying to myself, "you should go check them out"
Guess I'll have to!

"The sausage lady" is where I got my steaks. Almost 2" thick rib steaks. They were so good.
