East Coast Haddock

Haddock has firm white flesh that is mild in flavor. It is an excellent source of dietary protein and also contains a good deal of vitamin B12, pyridoxine, and selenimum with a healthy balance of sodium and potassium, and very little fat.

Haddock is a relative to cod but is a smaller fish than cod. It can be found in the North Atlantic, on both the European and the North American coast. It’s a popular fish with a white under-belly and a black line running across its top. It can grow to be about 3.6 feet long and is fished year round. Interestingly, haddocks in the last few decades are now growing larger more quickly, and the juveniles, which tend to stay in fairly shallow water, are now found in larger sizes.

“Most exciting is news that Atlantic haddock, once seriously overfished, have staged a remarkable recovery. So much so that line-caught haddock is now rated in the ‘best’
category—proof that with proper management, wild fish populations can recover. ”

Notes from our buyer

Live Crawfish
The 2013 crawfish is off to a great start! Warm temps through most of November and December have led to nice volume and sizing for the first month of the New Year. The early crawfish are sweet in flavor, and their shells are easy to peel. We are currently only sending straight run, but we expect to be washing and grading soon.
