Skipper Otto is not a monthly seafood box program. Rather, you can choose what you like when you like from what we are catching. For example, if you purchase a $500 share, you can order whatever you like from our inventory to a total of $500 at as many or as few pick-ups as you like. Each item is assigned a fair price based on that year’s fishing, processing, and transport costs. What you can get for $500 varies based on what you like to order. If you choose higher priced products such as halibut and spot prawns, your $500 will get you a lot less seafood than if you choose lower priced items like pink salmon or hake. During the sign up process you can always use our handy share size calculator to help you decide what size share to buy!
The majority of our flash-frozen fillets come in 1 lb packages (2 serving sizes). We do carry smaller portions sizes on a few items including coho salmon, lingcod, tuna loins and spot prawn tails and we do offer whole, dressed, frozen salmon for large parts of the year as well.
The nature of any CSA or CSF is that you are supporting fishers for whatever is the best, most sustainable fish they can catch on any given year. We do share a lot of information about what is in season and what are the most sustainable choices.
