The Mosquito Fleet

Small family boats. Each one named on its fish.

Your king comes straight from the boat that caught it. The tag and our text name that boat, so you can follow it and ask for it again.

What every fleet boat agrees to

  • Bleed and ice every fish our way.
  • Never freeze a fish.
  • Weigh it on a certified scale.
  • Pack it with our box kit and checklist.
  • Get the box to the carrier the same day.

A boat that ships two warm boxes in a season stops getting orders until it's fixed.

About us

We're a small, tight-knit community of fishermen who want more control over the price we get per pound and where our fish gets rehomed.

Small family boats, each one named on its fish. We start with three: Joshua's, Josh's and Patrick's. Taylor, Joshua's wife, runs the website and finds every fish a home.

There are only about 80,000 kings for the whole state this season. We're trying to keep those fish in homes, going out directly from the fishermen, instead of into the corporate machine where fish gets spoiled.

Our way

  1. The boat lands your king
  2. It ships that day
  3. It's at your door the next day, never frozen

The usual way

  1. A buyer at the dock
  2. A processor
  3. A warehouse
  4. A store case, days later

We'd rather it go to your table than sit in a warehouse.
