Buy the
fish.
We don't run a storefront. We run a network. Find the partner closest to you — every one is a real boat, a real CSF, or a real co-op we'd buy from ourselves.
We'd rather send you to people we trust than build another middle layer. Every partner here pays fishermen fair, sources transparently, and ships fish we'd cook ourselves.
What are you looking for?
Three honest paths. Pick the one that fits how you cook.
Subscribe to a season
A community-supported fishery sends monthly boxes from a single, traceable boat. Best for households who eat seafood weekly and like surprise.
Order à la carte
Pick exactly which species, exactly which week. Best for cooks who already know what they want, or anyone testing the waters.
Find a CSF near you
The Local Catch directory maps small-boat seafood programs from Maine to Kodiak. The shortest supply chain you can buy from.

How It Works
How CSFs Work
A Community Supported Fishery works like a CSA for vegetables — you commit upfront, the fisherman commits to catch. Both sides benefit.
You Subscribe
Buy a share at the start of the season. This gives the fisherman capital and a guaranteed buyer — removing the commodity middleman.
Fisherman Catches
The boat goes out. Your share is pulled from that day's catch, documented to vessel and date, and processed without entering the anonymous commodity chain.
You Pick Up or Get Delivery
Receive your share at a pickup location or have it shipped. You know who caught it, when, and how — that's the whole point.

Buyer Education
What to Look For
Vessel Name
The best products name the boat and captain. 'F/V Maverick, Capt. John Smith' means someone is accountable.
Harvest Date
Not just 'last season' — a specific date tells you the fish was tracked from catch, not assembled from commodity inventory.
Harvest Method
Troll, reef net, long-line, pot — method determines bycatch and quality. Know how your fish was caught.
