Alaska Troll caught coho Group Buy #2 BACK ON AS OF 8-26
« on: August 01, 2018, 12:17:39 PM »
Box Orders

7mmfan - 7
Woodchuck - 1
Ridgeratt - 1 (repeat customer, thanks  :tup:)
WAcoyotehunter - 1
syoungs - 1
H20hunter - 1
Bigdave - 2
MR5x5 - 1
Stalker - 2
"Commercial customer" - 4
Whitpirate - 1
Ctwiggs - 1

I'll be filling orders from the top of the list down.  Current fishing has me thinking 20-25 boxes should be doable, with 30 boxes possible by Sat morning.  H20hunter has agreed to keep this list current for me while I'm out of cell coverage.  If fishing is fantastic, I'll let him know via inReach and we'll take up to 40 boxes on the list.




Looks like I'm going to be able to squeeze in a short trip for the HuntWa'ers who were not able to get in on the first group buy.

2nd List
dhoey 1 box spokane
quadrafie 1 box spokane
birdguy 1 box seatac
bluemoon
elkaholic123
jamesfromseattle
skyvalhunter

My current plan is to ship these fish Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning on Ak Air for pickup at the cargo terminal of your airport that is serviced by AK Air or Horizon Air.

As before, these are random-sized troll dress coho packed in 80# net weight boxes.  Actual weights may vary by a pound or two.  More details about the fish and packaging can be found on the first group buy thread. 

There most likely won't be any rockfish available, this is a straight coho run. 

Coho price is $4.00/#, plus airfreight.  Airfreight typically runs from $72-$78 a box, depending on which airport you'll be picking up from. I will be slush icing these fish, and the weather is a little snotty out there right now, so there might be a little bit of scale loss you wouldn't normally see on my fish.  This does not indicate a lower quality product in any way, but I just wanted people to be aware (for the commercial wholesale market, some fish counters really want the scales on for display purposes).

In the interest of keeping things organized, please indicate how many boxes of coho you'd like to buy on this thread, even if you've already said so on the first buy.  Something along the lines of "Skillet will take 2 boxes to SeaTac".  If you're looking to partner up with somebody on a box, that's great - but I can only have one addressee per order.  So after you figure out your deal with your partner, one of you will place the order.   If you wish to remain anonymous, it's ok to PM me your order - but until I confirm it back, orders on the thread will take priority if I come up short of fish.

Speaking of which - fishin' is fishin'.  If I don't have enough to go around, I will fill orders from the first post on down, provided they're aren't any potential issues with payment (like a guy that just joins to buy fish, but insists on sending a check. I'm going to skip over that order to take care of long-standing HuntWa'ers first).
Combined shipments:  Wherever possible, please place multiple orders together.  If five friends each want one box each, if possible please have one guy order and pick them all up at once. 

I will also be taking one payment per combined order.  I will email an invoice to the person picking up the fish.  Payment details are available on the other thread.  Please communicate with me ahead of time re: payment, especially if you're relatively new here. 

I'll be updating this post with more info regarding people to get in touch with in case I'm unreachable.

Let's get those orders placed!

Thanks,

Chris

For those of you who don't know Skillet and how he takes care of his fish, his fish is the top quality anywhere. You won't find nicer and better taken care of salmon.

How many pounds in a box?

Anyone around Seattle/Bellevue/Redmond/Duvall want to split a box?
