Fresh Fish Picks: Local Markets Stock Up for Spring

Gadsden County residents looking for fresh seafood will find local markets well-stocked this spring. With the fishing season in full swing, several area grocers and specialty shops are featuring a variety of fresh catches, perfect for family dinners or weekend cookouts.

For instance, Quincy Seafood Market, located in the heart of downtown Quincy on West Jefferson Street, is currently offering fresh snapper, grouper, and shrimp daily. Owner Maria Rodriguez noted, "We're seeing excellent quality coming in this week. Our customers are really enjoying the fresh-caught red snapper, which is perfect for grilling."

Over in the charming town of Havana, Havana Fish & Produce on Main Street has also reported a strong supply of local favorites, including mullet and catfish. Manager David Chen stated, "We've had a lot of requests for fresh mullet, and we're happy to say we've got plenty. It's a Gadsden County staple."

These local establishments are committed to providing the freshest possible seafood to the community, often sourcing directly from Florida's Gulf Coast. Shoppers are encouraged to visit their local markets soon, as popular selections can sell out quickly, especially heading into the weekend.
