With a whole fish, you get to pay the bargain price and you get a lot more meat out of it. Plus, even if you aren’t going to eat all of that meat, we all know that fish freezes incredibly well. This gives you a fresh product that you know is free of additives and that you know where it came from and the hands that handled it—your own. Third, by butchering it yourself you get the freshest fish you can get in a supermarket without having caught it yourself. Need we say more?
