‘Pure piscine class’: the Smoked fish box from Wright Brothers
Eat more British fish. Please. Because in this post-Brexit, mid-lockdown world, our fishermen are having a fairly torrid time. Issues with the export of live shellfish to Europe as well as the shutdown of the hospitality industry means demand has crashed.
But there is hope, as the industry pivots swiftly from catering to consumer sales. All the below offer seasonal, sustainably caught British fish and shellfish.
Pesky Fish (peskyfish.co.uk) is a four-year-old company that connects day boats directly to the punter. Sign up, and most mornings (fishing being dependent, of course, on the weather conditions), you’ll get a choice of spanking fresh British fish, and the very best farmed mussels – but move fast, as things sell quickly.
