Wild Nigerian Tiger Prawns are an Alien species to many waters far from their Asian origin. They are considered invasive, and eating them could be viewed as stewarding ecological balance. Enough on that. Wild Nigerian Prawns are an incredible tasting and an awe inspiring product. With correct culinary application, the Wild Tiger Prawn can be the summit of the "Seafood Feature". A hearty initial snap that finishes buttery and succulent, Tiger Prawns are "Giant" in proportions (some 10-13" long), and have vast culinary applications.

The Wreckfish is a bottom dwelling large growing species that is very similar to Grouper. The Wreckfish can be found from 150'-2000'. The name "Wreckfish" comes from inhabiting shipwrecks and "Stone Bass" from the rocky ledges. The Wreckfish packs on the moisture for body temperature regulation in cold waters. The species can grow very large all the while maintaining the silkiness and sweetness of Grouper. Prepare larger cuts with moderate heat and the smaller fillet portions more quickly. Ceviche, Saute, Broil, Poach.

Baja Bays are some of the rare fresh bay Scallops found in our domestic market place. In general, the only fresh Bay Scallop produced in the States is the Nantucket Bay Scallop available in small numbers from November through March. The “Sea of Cortez” Bay scallop is again a “Hand Harvested” product, landed by Divers in shallow waters off the coast of Baja. The shucked abductor muscle grades between 60-80 counts per pound.
