Does anyone have recommendations about where to buy good fresh fish near/in Asheboro? I'm staying away from anything sourced from China and other sketchy countries. Thanks.
 
Interested too. I haven’t heard of any fish shop around town.
We’ve been buying up on Cape Cod and bringing the trailer’s fridge back full up.
 
King Fish Market in High Point gets good reviews. Haven’t been there in forever.
 
Two suggestions:


They have a link at the top for requests to drop off in Asheboro; not sure what they are doing about/with this right now, but I would encourage you to contact them if it looks of interest. I have gotten stuff from them at the Pittsboro Farmer's Market from time to time, always really good and fresh.

They also supply flash frozen seafood to Little Way Farm [Siler City]

Little Way Farm is great and has some good meat as well.




I work at a butcher shop; we carry flash frozen seafood from Locals. I have tried it a few times and it has been really good.
Cut fresh/flash frozen; far better than what you would get at any regular store.

I realize you want fresh - maybe it is more feasible to get fresh/flash frozen and store in your freezer at home?
Flash freezing = fresh fish, quickly frozen ASAP. It tends to be 'fresher' than fresh most of the time, since seafood needs to be transported inland/kept on ice etc. and doesn't keep well.
Just a suggestion.

If you want excellent fish from NewEngland, it has to come from the cold waters north of the cape, gulf of Maine, etc.
I spent my summers near the Cape Cod Canal and pulled lobster pots with a fisherman. The seafood from the cold side of the cape was significantly better than the warm water south side and brought a bunch more money. The southern stuff was sold to the “know nothing” NY CT tourists.

When we moved to NH, we learned that the Maine and north lobsters were better than those near Mass and the cape..

You need to remember that cold fish is better than warm fish…
but a hot woman is better than a cold one.
Thus keeping a northern woman hot has its rewards.
Don’t get confused…
