Bravo Peter – some excellent ideas for Mike and others to follow up on. I’m sure fish stores vary greatly from country to country. It’s a great idea for members to describe what shopping for fish is like in their country or even region. Years ago I spent time in Japan and a year up country in Thailand. There were great differences between fish shops in those countries and vastly different from shops in the U.S. at that time. Indeed, today in the U.S. there are significant differences in different locations in this country. I look forward to Mike’s comments as well as others that might wish to contribute to the dialogue. One more thing, I will echo the request by our webmaster previously. It would be very helpful for ALL members to complete their profile on the site. That gives others of us that are following comments by a writer of where they are located around this wide world. By providing a city and country (not an actual address) we can post to the map – giving all of us a picture of where we all live. I look forward to opening up this discussion among our members.
