They have a lifespan of about 35 years and are quick to mature, with males maturing at 2 years old and females by about 4 years old. Chilipepper are viviparous, meaning they breed through internal fertilization and give birth to live fish. The juveniles prefer shallow water, while the adults are found within deep rocky reefs and muddy\/sandy bottoms feeding on small crustaceans, squid and various species of other fish. Adults are easy to identify by their distinct red-orange color, protruding jaw and spineless head. Chilipepper Rockfish has a medium, firm flesh which makes it versatile for a variety of preparations. Chilipepper’s are often referred to as Rockcod or mislabeled as Snapper.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 16px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSustainability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chilipepper Rockfish have made a miraculous recovery and Monterey Bay Seafood Watches now rates them as a Best Choice when caught by Scottish Seine or by the California Groundfish Collective (CGC). Rockfish fisheries are highly regulated and use implemented sustainable catch limits and as well as specific gear modifications that have greatly helped to reduce habitat destruction along the seafloor as well as helped to reduce bycatch. Along with a regulated fishery, Chilipepper’s are fast growing and have an early maturity rate which contributes to making them a great sustainable choice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FV Mr. Morgan","offers":[{"title":"Skin On","offer_id":40211268141119,"sku":"80110","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Skin Off","offer_id":40211268173887,"sku":"80111","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/0652\/6783\/files\/Chilipepper_Fillet_2.jpg?v=1736799562"},{"product_id":"chinook-aka-king-salmon","title":"Chinook (aka King) Salmon - 1 lb","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eSpecies: \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eOncorhynchus tshawytscha\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLanding Date: 10\/01\/26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eConsume or Freeze Date: 10\/11\/26\u003cbr\u003eCaptain: Steve Masuda\u003cbr\u003eBoat: F\/V Sachiko\u003cbr\u003ePort: Half Moon Bay\u003cbr\u003eCatch Method: Trolling Lines\u003cbr\u003eMBSFW Rating: Good Alternative\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003e This product may contain bones\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBiological Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Chinook Salmon is a fascinating fish that is born in freshwater streams and rivers. They are unique fish in that they have physiological abilities to adapt to both freshwater and saltwater. The first 3 months to 2 years of their lives are spent in fresh water before migrating to the open ocean where they will end up spending the majority of their lives growing to maturity in 2 to 4 years. In the ocean, salmon feed on plankton, kelp and krill which is what gives them their noticeably pink coloration. When adult Chinook salmon are ready to spawn they migrate back to their ancestral river where the female selectively creates a nest at the bottom of the stream based on her ideal gravel type, water depth and flow. The males then come to spawn with the female and will actively defend their nest site for up to a month before ending their life cycle. Chinook Salmon are a full flavored, high fat content fish with large reddish-orange flakes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSustainability\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chinook Salmon in California are fighting an uphill battle. Since the Gold Rush, development on land has lead to the destruction of critical Salmon spawning habitat. The damming of rivers, sedimentation and water diversion projects has meant that huge reaches of essential fish habitat has been blocked or destroyed. With a constrained ability to reproduce, Salmon numbers plummeted. Here locally, the San Lorenzo River which once had runs of 60,000+ fish now sees less than 5000 fish each year. Global warming is also a major contributor as rising ocean temperatures and acidification have lead to increasing variability in bait fish populations. Overfishing has historically been a problem as well. More recently strong regulations backed by extensive scientific efforts has helped to limit the effects of fishing from contributing to the decline of Salmon populations. Every year quotas and the date of season opening is adjusted based on National Marine Fisheries Service surveys. For these reason California Chinook Salmon has been labeled as a “Good Alternative” by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia; font-size: 18px;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FV Sachiko","offers":[{"title":"Fillet","offer_id":43206743031871,"sku":"80107","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Trim","offer_id":43206743064639,"sku":"80108","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Collar","offer_id":43206743097407,"sku":"80109","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/0652\/6783\/products\/salmon.jep.png?v=1651596111"},{"product_id":"wild-caught-pacific-bluefin-tuna","title":"Pacific Bluefin Tuna - 1 lb","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 16px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia;\"\u003eSpecies: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cem\u003eThunnus orientalis\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCatch Date: 10\/05\/26\u003cbr\u003eConsume or Freeze Date: 10\/11\/26\u003cbr\u003eBoat: F\/V Green Machine\u003cbr\u003eCaptain: Brent Bozzo\u003cbr\u003ePort: Half Moon Bay\u003cbr\u003eCatch Method: Hand Operated Pole\u003cbr\u003eMBSFW Rating: Good Alternative\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis product may contain bones\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"F\/V Green Machine","offers":[{"title":"Toro","offer_id":41283161096255,"sku":"","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Akami","offer_id":41283161129023,"sku":"","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Collar (1 ct ~3 lbs - size varies)","offer_id":41903324332095,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Trim","offer_id":41903324364863,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0009\/0652\/6783\/files\/bluefin.jpg?v=1751395078"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.getocean2table.com\/collections\/species-we-carry.oembed","provider":"Ocean2Table","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
