Whats your favorite place to buy fresh fish to cook at home?

Most of the fish you find at the super market is imported, interested in finding fresh local fish to cook.

Thank you.

I have always had luck at the Montague Boat Ramp which located out east. Go early to avoid the afternoon traffic.

The fish is usually caught that same morning and very fresh. Beautiful Red Snapper, Grouper and Hog Fish!

There are several vendors that will negotiate a good price for you and even fillet the fish on the spot and package it up to transport home for freezing or cooking.

Take a friend or spouse along for the trip to the dock. The energy at the dock can be intense as everyone wants your business. Don't be afraid to negotiate.

Great if you can find a vendor and become a regular. You can even ask for their cell number and let them know what you need in advance.

Buying fresh fish at the dock is an authentically Bahamian experience.

Just short of fishing it up yourself!

Does anyone know if this is open on Sundays? Would love to have fresh lobster tomorrow for dinner. I have only been on Saturday's and not Sunday's. Thanks.

The Montague boat ramp is open 7 days a week.

Go early on Sunday (9am ish) for fresh fish and Bahamian crawfish (lobster minus the biters).

There are vendors available 7 days a week!
