What is Considered a Sport Fish?
City Fish Market is the best place to get redfish and bluefish…but this is no children’s story by Dr. Seuss. We welcome questions, and a good one is, “What is considered a sport fish?” The types of fish pursued in sport fishing are considered sport fish, and they are fun to catch, if you have kept in good physical shape. We have a selection of sport fish to thrill the appetite, and no fishing pole for die-hards is required.
Mahi-mahi, tuna, opah, escolar, amberjack, bluefish, and mako shark are among the fresh sport fish you can find in our retail counters. Read about the sport involved with catching a redfish, below. We also give details about the flavors of one fish–no, two fish–as well as sport fish recipes.
Mahi Mahi is a Highly Sought Sport Fish
Whether you want mahi mahi for enviable sport fishing or for superb eating, you will not be disappointed. Here at City Fish Market, we know a lot of great fishermen. What we know best, however, is what it takes to keep their catches fresh for customers. Our renowned retail counters at 884 Silas Deane Hwy in Wethersfield CT speak for themselves.
Although mahi mahi has a mild, sweet flavor, others might say it has a semi-mild flavor and a slightly sweet taste. The flesh has a lean and firm texture with large, moist flakes. Enjoy these 17 delicious mahi mahi recipes and experience the flavor of this sport fish for yourself.
Redfish Championship Series Abound
Redfish are true sport fish, as evidenced by the numerous redfish competitions. From the Redfish World Series to the Elite Redfish Series, sports fishermen thrive on catching these strong fighters. Redfish are known for their aggressive behavior and powerful runs. Even smaller fish of this species provide an outstanding fight. Our fresh, cleaned red drum aka redfish comes to us here at City Fish Market after the fight ends and becomes just one more fish story.
Redfish also has a reputation for being a good-eating fish, with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. The moist, firm white flesh flakes easily. Search online, and you will find many redfish recipes worth giving a try.
Tuna is a Sport Fish with a Popular Taste
Tuna is a fatty fish packed with healthy omega-3 fatty acids. It is rich and meaty with a silky, melt-in-your-mouth texture. The flavor of tuna is mild and sweet. These are just some of the reasons tuna is one of the most popular fish served on dining tables throughout the world.
Fresh tuna, in general, has a superior taste and texture as compared with canned tuna. Try our tuna at City Fish Market and you will likely never go back to canned tuna. (We won’t lie. Winning over chefs to fresh sport fish and other fresh seafood is, like, the sport we thrive on.) Try fresh 1 ½ pound tuna steaks with this Tuna Grilled Korean-Style Recipe.
