Seafood
A few of us will be down this week for a few days of fishing. Thats pretty much taken care of. Just curious where the best place to by fresh seafood to take home (mainly shrimp and maybe some Tuna) might be. I have bought down there before and a few of the places I have been the shrimp have a yellow tint. I assume that is from quick freezing, but not sure. Ant help would be much appreciated.

If I were buying any quantity of seafood, my money would be on Joe Patti's seafood in Pensicola. Most anything you want and cleanest fresh seafood market I've found with prices usually cheaper. The fill you're ice chest with ice and pack for travel at no extra charge. For smaller quantities, Billy's. SafeHarbor, Stewarts or any of the smaller local guys would be good. I like to shop local when I can but you're not likely to find tuna etc. in the local shops. Good eating..

Blaylock Seafoood on Canal Rd. (Hy, 180E) has the fresh stuff---I sometimes get four or five of their jumbo table shrimp so I can have fresh, never frozen, bait. You can cut them up into four or five pieces each for pompano, etc.

I buy mine from a local boat that docks on the back side of Oyster Bay. He docks where the old Plash seafood used to be. In fact I believe he is a Plash. He docks and begins selling about 7am and usually sells out before 9am. Head north on 59 and as soon as you cross the Intra coastal waterway on the high bridge turn left and go about 6 or 7 miles and watch for a small sign. Prices are competitive for the area but you cannot get fresher as he sells off the boat until the nights catch is gone. Also you are supporting home town folks.

Joe patties sells imported seafood mixed with local. Go to Bon secour and you can watch them unload the shrimp and fresh market has the pretties tuna I've seen in awhile

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
