We are shipping our last load of fresh Alaska Red King Crab today. Unfortunately due to the 47% reduction in quota and great crabbing, this year’s fishery (season) has been drastically reduced. Initial reports seem to show that approximately 75 to 80% of this year’s crab is going to Japan. We will have frozen available throughout the year.
NEXT UP! Opilio Snow Crab
The quota has been drastically increased from approximately 54,000,000 pounds to 88,000,000. Prices should come down from 2011 prices and the season should be longer, possibly into late April. We are looking into offering fresh cooked Opilio Snow Crab. Crab deliveries should begin around January 10th or thereabouts. Our plan is to pack only +8 oz. clusters or possibly even +10 oz.
