I joined Walking Fish's Community Supported Fishery last fall and have been ecstatic with the weekly fish delivery. You can choose the amount of fish you want (2lb or 4 lb), on a weekly or biweekly basis. You have the option to get your fish fileted or just headed/gutted. The options range from oysters, clams, snapper, mahi, flounder, bluefish, mullet, hard shell crab, soft shell crab and gorgeous shrimp! I believe I left off some of the varieties I have received but I think you get a pretty good idea.
After three seasons I will continue to support this sustainable fishery. I think it is a great way to eat the way I want to in a way that is not environmentally detrimental. Also I don't have to leave Durham to get fresh fish on a weekly basis!
Keep in mind if you consider joining that just like a CSA you pay at the beginning of the season trusting in your fishers to bring you the best they can. You do not get to select what you receive each week because it is based on water temperature, and fish in the area at that season. Some weeks the weather/water isn't permitting so they may move that delivery and add a week at the end of the season but I have been extremely satisfied. read more
