Some of our members will enjoy one of our favorite seasonal treasures - local halibut reeled in by hook and line by F/V Lyndy Taku out of Juneau, Alaska. Alaskan halibut is a marquee item, highly sought after in restaurants. These meaty fillets are delicate and flavorful. It is an obsessively well managed fishery and these fish were caught by bottom long line, with little by catch and the stocks are considered to be in excellent shape.

Halibut is one of the finest fish fillets going, and these are different than California halibut - they are thicker and less prone to drying out. Anything that can be done to a slab of fish can be successfully done to a nice piece of halibut.

ORIGIN: F/V Lyndy Taku out of Juneau, Alaska
