How Does Hogfish Compare to Snapper and Grouper?

While grouper and snappers are all mild fish, hogfish is definitely the whitest fillet.

How Do You Catch Your Hogfish?

Our Hogfish is only available when the weather has been clear enough for a diver to locate and acquire them by hand utilizing a spear gun. Consequently, if you see it ‘in-stock’, rest assured it won’t be for long.

Top Supplier of Sustainably Sourced Hogfish

Fishing regulations for Hogfish are very stringent and at Wild Seafood Market we proudly adhere to these regulations and even go beyond what’s legally mandatory. For instance, the founder of Wild Seafood Co is one of the creators behind Gulf Wild, a fish tracking system developed and implemented to help ensure fish are sourced sustainably. In addition, this program tracks seafood throughout their supply line, from boat to throat, hook to cook.

How much does Hogfish cost per pound?

Hogfish is considered a ‘rare’ fish and sells at a price per pound higher than most other fish. If you were buying Hogfish at a market, already filleted, you could expect to pay between $36 to even $50 a pound.

Our Price for Hogfish

We sell Hogfish by the whole fish, so our price per pound is significantly less than what you would pay per pound of filleted Hogfish. However, whole fish only yield upwards of 35% once trimmed and filleted. Our current market price is listed just under the title of the product. As of the Fall, 2021, this price is $12 per pound.
