Hawaii's Market is unique; boats fishing local waters bring their bounty in to be offloaded into Hawaii's auction, "United Fishing Agency Auction." Hawaiian auction bidders know their favorite boats, handling practices and ordering days. Each buyer takes their prized winning bid back to the plant each day and grades it for national distribution next day.

Cuttlefish have an internal shell, called the cuttlebone. They have large W shaped eyes, eight arms and two tentacles furnished with suckers, with which they secure their prey. They eat small mollusks including other cuttlefish, crabs, shrimp, and fish. They have a rather short lifespan, living only one to two years. They are totally absent from the Americas but present along the coasts of East and South Asia, Western Europe, the Mediterranean, and off the coasts of Africa and Australia

Sow Hake have a close resemblance to Cod and Haddock with a larger flake and "Fluffier" texture. They inhabit extremely deep waters and rise to mid depth at night to feed. The Sow Hake are harvested during this time by Hook and Line "Jig" Day Boat Operators. Sow Hake are a delicate "softer" flesh than other New England Round Fish. They are, indeed, a highly sought species by "Local" minded New England Chefs. They contain high levels of fish "fat" to regulate body temperature. This translates to incredible moisture levels in the prepared flesh. The culinary application is vast. Think it and Hake will handle it. Poach, Saute, Broil, Grill, Salt-Cure, Smoke.
