Fresh Fish Outlook for December 2012

Fresh fish Outlook Dec 2012......

 

Tom, The Skipper of Day Boat 'Jessica Lynn'

 

SALMON
(M&J Seafood to hold Salmon prices until January 2013)

Overall Salmon prices are rising due to the Christmas period. This is driven by high demand from Salmon smokers to process and freeze down smoked Salmon for the European supermarkets, and increased demand from foodservice.

Norwegian Salmon
Prices are expected to increase further over the next few weeks due to increased demand accross Europe, Russia, Germany, France, Netherlands and the UK. According to Norwegien suppliers there will be low volumes of spot Salmon available until late March 2013.

Scottish Salmon

With Amoebic Gill Infection still an issue, the Scottish Salmon farms have been harvesting more quickly than usual and are forecasting a lack of larger fish (6-8kg) as we go into December and the New Year. USA sales of Scottish Salmon remain extremely buoyant and this is driving prices up from the levels seen over the summer. Scottish lays a big part on menu descriptions

.

WHITEFISH
Cod and Haddock are in good supply and steady pricing as we head into Christmas. If the weather holds now we should see stability. Good supplies of Hake and fair quantities of Pollack have generated good exposure on the specials boards.
SEA BASS & BREAM

Stable availability and prices are forecast for the most part with the exception of a possible blip over the week of Christmas. Farmed Mediterranean species and Welsh farmed Sea Bass should be in good supply.

 

UK FARMED RAINBOW TROUT

We have a great supply of Rainbow Trout sourced from a farm on the Hampshire / Wiltshire border and fed by the river Avon. Whole fish are supplied either round or gutted and gilled (mainly 8oz to 16oz) and further processed as fillets – plain or butterflies, as well as canoed whole fish and smoked fillets. From Scotland we also have a great source of top quality Sea Reared Rainbows form 1kg to 4kg, making them ideal for cutting thick juicy suprêmes.

FLATFISH

Plaice are now rapidly filling with roe as we are in the spawning season (not the males). This normally lasts for a couple of months until the fish then shoot their roe and become very thin; they will then start to plump up around late February. Lemon Soles are good quality at the moment but landings have been very sporadic and traditionally prices rise as we approach Christmas. We have seen increased landings on Brill and Turbot recently.

EXOTICS

There has been a slight rise in price again this week due to very warm weather conditions (if the water gets too warm, the Tuna swims to deeper waters and therefore avades capture). Tuna prices will steadlily get back to the market price expected for this time of year and should fully stabilise by the end of the month. We do not expect any futher cyclones, as we had last month, to disrupt supply.

SCALLOPS

Available in various formats – from hand-dived Scallops in shell from divers around the coast from Brixham to Scotland, to dry-cut roe-on Scallop meat packed in 1kg or 2kg tubs. We also supply American roeless meat; these sweet juicy Scallops are shucked at sea and ideal for recipes where the roe is not required, so giving you a kilo of pure Scallop meat in each tub.

LOBSTERS

Canadian Lobsters are superb quality at the moment, full of meat and in rock-hard shells.

DAY BOAT LANDINGS

We have great day boat landings from local vessels the

Jessica Lynn and Ellie Jean from Poole who are landing some stunning species like Dover Soles, Brill, Turbot and Ray Wings. All landed direct to our Wimborne branch within an hour of them reaching the quayside in Poole.

We also have some of the best quality slush-iced tagged wild Bass you can buy, all caught by the Skin Deeper and Shaman fishing out of Weymouth. This year’s season seems to be running longer than previous years.

For any more information, please fell free to get in touch!

Fresh Fish Outlook - November 2012

FRESH FISH OUTLOOK- NOVEMBER 2012

SALMON

As Christmas approaches the price of Salmon begins to rise. This is driven by high demand from Salmon smokers to process and freeze down smoked Salmon for the European supermarkets, and increased demand from foodservice.
Norwegian Salmon France and Russia continue to take significant amounts of Norwegain Salmon, which has led to the increase we are now experiencing on price and is also fuelled by the pre-Christmas demand for frozen Salmon suprêmes into the retail sector. We do not expect to see any let up on this untill late January.

 

Scottish Salmon

With sporadic outbreaks of Amoebic Gill Infection, Scottish Salmon farms have been harvesting more quickly than usual and are forecasting a lack of larger fish (6-8kg) as we go into December and the New Year. USA sales of Scottish Salmon remain extremely buoyant and this is helping drive prices up from the summer levels. Scottish provenance still plays a big part on menu descriptions.

WHITEFISH

We should see good availability of Cod and Haddock during November as Iceland and Norway are fully into their season. Prices should stay stable before starting to rise towards Christmas as it is seasonally expected due to reduced landings at this time of year.
Alaskan Pollock prices may start to rise due to availability issues.
Hake availability and pricing is expected to remain stable for the foreseeable future.
LINE-CAUGHT CORNISH FISH
We now have a regular supply from North Cornwall of day boat line caught fish species; from fantastic quality jig and line Squid, line-caught Cod as well as tagged wild Bass and Pollock. This small community of fishermen try whenever possible to "fish to order", meaning the quality is always fantastic and the fish will be no more than 24 hours old from catch to dispatch.
SEA BASS & BREAM
This is now the low season in Europe for Bass and Bream so we can expect prices to be stable and volumes to be good. Bream is going to feature much more in 2013 as chefs look for opportunities to ring the changes on their menus and also take advantage of the more competitively priced fish, either passing this on to their customers or using it to increase their kitchen GP%.

UK FARMED ARCTIC CHAR

Local to our Wimborne branch we have a supplier of fantastic quality Arctic Char. The current owners have been building the business since 1986 and at any one time have a biomass in the ponds of approx 8 tons. Fish are supplied from a plate size 300g up to fish of 1.5kg for producing suprêmes. The farm is fed by their own borehole water that is naturally pure and chiled making it ideal for rearing Char.

FLATFISH

Availability should be fairly stable on Plaice and Lemon Soles for November. We are however entering the spawning season for Plaice which will now be in roe over the coming weeks. We are also still getting daily landings from the

Jessica Lynn, a small day boat fishing out of Poole and landing us stunning quality Dover Soles, Brill and Turbots on a daily basis.

EXOTICS
Eid holiday period will be over at the end of October. Tuna prices are expected to rise over the next few weeks until more fish has been caught and is in the system. Prices are expected to stabilise by the end of the month. There are no expected availability issues on any other exotic species.

 

LOBSTER

Good harvests in Canada during November mean that there will be plentiful supply going into December. They will have also finished moulting which means a superb quality, hard-shell Lobster full of meat.

Rod & Line Caught fish at its best!

M&J Seafood have been using this amazing new supplier for a good few months now and the quality of their catch is second to none!

 

 

 

Wild Harbour is a family owned business that has been fishing for more than 25 years

off the West Cornish coastline, and are passionate about what they do. They only catch
and supply wild sustainable fish, which is of the highest standard and is completely traceable.

Wild Harbour has their own boat ‘Proper Job’ and also source directly from other Cornish fishermen,

offering them a fair deal and helping to support and maintain the Cornish under 10m fleet.

 Saul on Day Boat 'Proper Job'

They are Members of the Responsible Fishing Scheme;

* Rod and line and hand line caught only

* All fish kept in otimal condition

 

* No unnecessary discards

 

* Razor Clams are dive caught

 

* Lobsters are caught using traditional pot method

 

 

 

 

Members of the South West Handline

Fisherman’s Association;

* Sea Bass and Pollack individually tagged

* Full traceability to Fisherman and vessel

"Sea bass caught by hand line methods in the southwest of

England are an especially good choice, as all fish can be identified

by a tag in the gill, providing traceability back to the individual

fisherman who caught it. Ask for fish which has been line-caught

and tagged"

Fish & Seafood outlook. Oct 2012

As I do each month, I like to give you a little insight to the Fresh Fish market for the forth coming month, so here is the inside gosip for October 2012;

 

SALMON

Salmon suppliers are concerned about the availability of Salmon coming into the time of year when demand is at its highest. This is expected to push Salmon prices up to the unprecedented levels we saw last year.

NORWEGIAN SALMON; The relatively low price level over the last 12 months has contributed to a very strong development in demand for Salmon, especially from France and Russia. The value of Norwegian Salmon exports in August increased by 24% compared to August last year. Much of these fish were originally destined for a November/December harvest however, were harvested early during the summer to supply this demand. Consequently at the time, the market was flooded with smaller sizes which reduced prices during the summer and these stocks are now not available. This will therefore lead to significant stock issues during November and December (when demand is at its highest), without sufficient stock to meet this demand. This supply shortage has in turn driven prices up.

SCOTTISH SALMON; Trading was influenced by further downward pressure on traded fish prices during June. This was caused by increased volume on the traded fish market due to a stark rise in short-term harvesting from competing production areas. This pressure on traded fish is forecasted to continue through Q3 and Q4. Pressure also continued on feed and fish meal prices with a resultant detrimental effect on overall cost. The whole of the Scottish industry has been affected however, different companies to differing levels depending on the ages of their fish in the water. One key supplier confirmed that they accelerated their harvest during July and August. Fishing larger fish 2-3 months earlier than planned reduced harvest volumes for quarter 4.

WHITEFISH

 

We should see good availability of Cod and Haddock during October as Iceland and Norway are fully into their season. Prices should stay stable throughout October before starting to rise towards Christmas as it is seasonally expected due to reduced landings at this time of year.

Alaskan Pollock prices may start to rise due to availability issues. Hake availability and pricing is expected to remain stable for the foreseeable future.

MACKEREL

M&J Seafood have a fantastic source of local Mackerel available from Chesil Beach on the South Coast, however landings are very weather dependant. To supplement our Chesil Beach supply, we also have quality sources of Mackerel from Scotland and Spain to guarantee supply and competitive prices.

SEA BASS & BREAM

 
Availability of Bass and Bream is increasing as more fish are starting to come onto the market. This is expected to keep pricing stable and comeptitive during October and coming into the Christmas menu season.

UK TILAPIA  

Our main supply of Tilapia are 100% UK produced. This quality reared stock is fully traceable and sustainable. Availability is very strong and prices are expected to be comepetitive over the next couple of months as some farms try to sell off some of their stocks before Christmas. We have Orange and Black UK Tilapia available.

FLATFISH

Availability of South Coast flatfish is starting to reduce due to the weather. We are at the back end of the season now for Plaice and Lemon Sole and will soon start to switch much of our supply to the North Sea where availability and landings are more prevelent.

 

EXOTICS

 

The Tuna outlook remains uncertain due to recent high prices and a reduction in demand that has resulted in some processors switching to supplying other species.There are no expected availability issues on any other exotic species.

For more information, please do not hesitate to get in touch!

 

All the best, Simon

Wow.....How innovative!!

Hi,

As some of you may be aware, I have a slight addiction to the social network site ‘Twitter’. I love to follow chefs, restaurants and other food related people/accounts.

During the last week I came across an exciting company called ‘Global harvest’ (@globalharvest01). David Mason, Managing Director of Global harvest was very helpful and discussed a range of products that they have that would work perfectly with fish. Obviously being interested in fish myself (for obvious reasons) I was more than happy to find out more and help promote David’s budding business.

 

Global Harvest boasts Seven, yes Seven True Taste awards for their products including the main two products of interest to me which are the ‘Wild Fennel Pollen’ and ‘Wild Dill Pollen’ These products are very innovative and can be used with many dishes including the likes of Salmon, Sea Bass, Pork and even Chocolate Truffles!

Fish Outlook September 2012

FRESH FISH OUTLOOK September 2012

 

SALMON

We are starting to see a better size profile now that the new generation has had a chance to grow. This means that in the spot market the smaller fish are starting to achieve better prices and are coming into line with the other sizes.

There was downward pressure on traded fish prices during June. This was caused by increased volume on the traded fish market due to a stark rise in short-term harvesting from competing production areas. This pressure on traded fish is forecast to continue through the first half of Q3. Pressure also continued on feed and fish meal prices with a resultant detrimental effect on overall cost.

There are also questions/rumours about Chilean production and whether there will be issues with production there in the coming months which could have a dramatic effect on prices entering 2013, if the USA start buying from Scotland and Norway.

 

WHITEFISH

We expect to see more fish on the markets in September due to the new quota season starting in Iceland on 1st September. Although the Haddock quota has reduced it may well stir the market for a few months. Norwegian white fish is in good supply still and there is also a good supply available from Russia.

After a long-term decline in wild harvests, there have been some recent improvements and, in the short term, total groundfish supplies are expected to increase slightly in 2012. Cod prices are expected to climb some what, while Alaska Pollock prices are expected to decline.

MACKEREL

We have a great source of stunning Mackerel from Chesil Beach in Dorset. Landings are very weather dependant as the whole process of catching is done by hand by two men in a small rowing boat.

Mackerel supplies from elsewhere are expected to be good throughout September. We will be looking to Scotland and Spain in the coming months which offer excellent  quality and good availability.

 

SEA BASS & BREAM

The Sea Bass sitution is still proving challenging. Prices are not expected to ease within the next month and although traditionally prices will start to fall in September/October, the fact that stocks are very low after the summer season and the lack of supply may not see significant prices fall in the near future.

Increased focus is being placed on Bream. Due to the financial issues in Greece it seems as though a decision was taken to put more Bream in the water than Bass. This is a more popular species in mainland Europe and they grow at twice the rate of Sea Bass. The farmers need to turn

the fish into money and are threfore harvesting as many Bream as they can. We therefore expect to see good availability of Bream in the coming months but from December onwards, the market should tighten as a result of strong demand and diminishing supplies.

 

UK TILAPIA

We have great availability and prices on Tilapia this month. The fish are 100% UK produced and are not hormone treated. This quality reared stock is fully traceable, GM free as well as a great sustainable option.

Already extremely popular in America and Asia, Tilapia is a delicious firm-fleshed white fish, with a mild taste that can carry flavours from around the world, from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean. It is easy to cook, providing a tasty alternative to Sea Bass and can be grilled, barbecued, fried or baked. Fresh Tilapia is low in fat and high in protein and contains a range of nutrients including phosphorous, selenium and vitamin B12; it is also a source of omega 3 fatty acids.

 

UK PLAICE

We have a great availability and quality on UK Plaice fillets this month. They are still in Season and are being supplied from a fantastic source, from UK skippers.

Plaice is available throughout the year although the quality varies. From summer through to mid-winter (outside the spawning season) it is generally fleshier and tastier. They are still in abundance during September and prices should stay fairly stable for the month. Judged on its own merits, plaice is a superb fish possessing a fine, moist texture and subtle but distinctive flavour. Given the right treatment it makes a simple, healthy, inexpensive and absolutely delicious dish.

 

COLEY (SAITHE)

 

We have great availability on Coley this month, which offers fantastic value. Even a few years ago Coley had a bit of an image problem, sometimes branded as the poor man’s Cod. Today, with the likes of Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Tom Aikens championing this sustainable member of the Cod family, it’s rising through the ranks of

restaurant menus and now often rivals its more over-fished cousin.
