Wild Caught Fish Adelaide

We often get asked about wild caught seafood, and whether we carry it in Adelaide.

The answer is yes, we carry a large range of fresh frozen wild caught fish, including lots of fish from right here in SA. 

We believe that the waters off South Australia are some of the cleanest in the world. Fish caught using sustainably managed fisheries, in that more fish are grown than taken out, i.e. not overfishing, can be a managed sustainable approach.

The local fish is wild caught, mostly pole & line caught, and then filleted & frozen straight away. This locks in the freshness of the fish. A second generation fish monger finds us the best quality fish as he works with many great fishermen, and fillets it to the best precision. We have no worries for bones when giving garfish or whiting to our daughter, a smaller fish which generally has lots of small bones. 

Like with veggies, fish are also somewhat seasonal depending on the variety, and knowing this pattern allows us to get them caught & filleted when they are at their peak.

We have wild caught:
Garfish
Yellow Whiting
Nannygai
Mullet
Mulloway
Tommy Ruffs
and even sardines all from SA.

In addition to wild caught South Australian fish, we also have wild caught fish from further away like wild caught Barramundi, Snapper, Mackerel, and wild caught Atlantic Salmon.

The wild caught Atlantic salmon is really high grade, and you can see this just in the colour before you cook it, and also the fat one its cooked.

We are lucky to live in Adelaide surrounded by such pristine water, and our aim is to help create more awareness about other types of local wild caught fish that not everyone is used to cooking with, instead of farmed fish that is often fed questionable ingredients, treated with pharmaceuticals due to overcrowding and disease.

Recently we've even been trialling home compostable packaging which seems to work really well, so in the future all local wild caught fish will be packaged in home compostable bags.
