Something Very Unique Maybe Coming To Pickford's?

September 16, 2025

Welcome to Pickford's!

After years of searching for "TAUTOG," Pickford has finally found it!! Yet it comes at a price.

FRESH TAUTOG (A highly localized fish that is found in the coastal waters of the Mid-Atlantic caught by long-line fishing on a charter boat. They are typically hard to catch since they spend most of their life roaming near shipwrecks and reefs. Tautog are well identified by their thick, fleshy lips that have developed due to their crustacean diet. Sweet flavors and firm textures with a creamy, delicate complex. A must-try fish with great versatility!) This is a rare find, and delicious fish!! here's the problem "TAUTOG" is expensive, and even with me going just above cost the price at the moment is $29.99 a pound, and I believe the fillets weigh under a pound, to a pound?

The only way Pickford will bring this delicacy in is by preorder. FRESH "TAUTOG'' is just too expensive for me to take this kind of risk. Pickford's will be taking preorders up to 2:00 o'clock Thursday afternoon.

Miss you Dad
