Because we provide fish for sale at the farmer's
markets, we operate on a much smaller scale than most grocers
which translates to freshness for our customers. Usually, the
majority of the fish for sale at any given market was swimming
the day before! We like to assure our customers that they needn't
worry if they don't get around to eating their fish for a few
days — so we will never sell anything that can't sit in
a refrigerator for at least two days without still being fresh!
Our products available for sale are constantly
changing due to seasonality and sheer luck of the catch! We always
try to provide some variety of salmon for sale, even during
the winter months. When the season is open, we specialize in
Monterey Bay-caught, fresh, WILD KING salmon. In its absence,
we are happy to sell wild AK, OR, and WA Salmon and Fresh Steelhead.
We are most proud of the Monterey Bay specialties such as
black cod, halibut, and white sea bass. Much of the fish we sell is caught
by other local Santa Cruz fishermen, but when making our selection, we take
the time to research where the fish was caught and by what method. When you
buy from H & H you are not only supporting seafood and ocean sustainability,
but also supporting the local endangered fishing community here in the Santa
Cruz County.
We sell all of our fish by the pound, and have
various sizes to chose from. You can tell us how many pounds you'd
like, how many people you'd like to feed, or how much you'd like
to spend...and we will do our best to find you the perfect piece!
