Buying fresh, wild caught Salmon

[LaurelJ]

I can vouch for FAS, my husband and son travel yearly (July) for a Salmon and Halibut fishing trip out of Sitka. They bring home an average of 200 pounds which has been FAS, and it takes us about a year to go through it but tastes as fresh on day 364 as on day 1 right off the boat. I do believe FAS is superior to "FRESH" which has sat around who knows how long before it actually makes it to your plate. That being said, I sure look forward to our trips to Hilo area where we purchase Ahi, Aku, Opihi, and other fresh caught selections from local fishermen, right off the back of the boat and it IS "ono." Mmmmm, just made myself hungry![:I]
