From small fishing villages along the northern part of the Baja Peninsula, Day Boat Fishermen set out in small Wooden Pangas for a day of hand lining and scallop diving. The honor of tradition and familial unity are drivers in this amazing Day Boat program.

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.

Around the world this fish is known as the high end Canned Tuna, but not in Hawaii. The Tombo is an integral part of the local diet and is an excellent solution to smaller portioning of loin steaks. Lighter in color than its cousin the Yellowfin, the Tombo sheens a beautiful Candy hue like a Pearl paint job on a classic car. When used in contrast of the deep red Yellowfin in a sashimi platter, Tombo stands on its own as a GIANT little Tuna.
Moderate, Lemon Finish
Wild Cobia are typically caught larger than 20 lbs. The Wild Cobia eat eel and swimmer cab. This allows for a sweet and complex flavor that is comparable to nothing else. In the early part of the year Cobia have a intramuscular "fat" content that mirrors your favorite pork. Grill, BBQ, Smoke, Pan Roast, Sous Vide.
