CURRENT FISH NEWS

Thursday 14 August 2008

Ahoy Mates!

The middle of the August!

Is it possible that the Albacore will give the central coast another slip this season? Thank goodness that the Albacore have shown in good numbers off the Oregon coast, and there have been a little show offshore San Diego, with the best fishing in Mexican waters.

Ever see a lost fishermen wandering around Dockside ready to leave port but with no place to go fishing? It very well may have been Capt. Mark! However, he continues to stay busy working daily here making sure the fish that arrive for both the Fish Market and Restaurant are the very best available. This week is no different.

Capt. Evans of the "Lucy L" is once again seeing limited action with a splash of his local Halibut and Starry Flounder which you can find in the Fish Market. Capt. Nailen of the "Seeker" spent several days fishing offshore San Diego. The "Seeker" is a beautiful Radon Craft that he can trailer back and forth. So we are thrilled to have a limited supply of his fresh Albacore, Yellowtail, and even Mahi Mahi! We are also lucky to have more King and Silver wild troll caught Salmon from Canada and Alaska. After having gone a week without Halibut cheeks, we were blessed to receive another 50 pounds that are available in the Fish Market and will be featured in the Restaurant. Additionally, we have some nice local Blackgill Rockfish, and Longspines from Captains Blue and Rose. Longspines are a nice white fillet that tastes like a cross between Blackcod, and Rockfish. Most Longspines are sent directly to Asian markets, but as you know, we have offerings here at Dockside that are often “out side of the box.”

Captains Blue, Rose and Cullen, are participating in a longline fishery with the Nature Conservancy so we should be seeing these Longspines with some regularity.

Capt. Mark and I are looking forward to another fun weekend with live music out on the patio. Come on by and let us wait on you in the Restaurant or just relax out on the patio where Korea and Montana (our two yellow labs) will be hosting our dog friendly area.

* Update *

Just prior to sending this weeks e-mail Capt. Mark spoke with Capt. Snyder out of Avila Beach who has been fishing Halibut off of Ventura. The two will rendezvous in Avila Beach tomorrow , and so now our limited" supply of Halibut will actually be stronger!
