More active enzymes and a high ph count result in a softer fleshed fish. East Coast Striped Bass market has firmed up. It looks like Maryland Striped Bass has shut down. It will not reopen till June 2nd. Virginia is producing very little fish.
Availability is poor and the fish is expensive.
Black Bass supplies are tight. Production of Mahi for the next ten days looks very good. We expect the market to drop slightly towards the end of the week. The Chilean Sea Bass market remains steady. Although there is not a tremendous amount of Chilean Bass being caught the prices have eased a bit.
