Market Updates:
- Lake fish supplies are low to non-existent due to weather issues. Ice has caused problems already and it isn’t expected to get better in the next week or so.

- Tuna supplies are getting better and prices should come down a little for next week.
- Halibut supplies remain good and we will have fish for Valentine’s Day week.
- There are fishing closures for the grouper industry. Fishing on Mexico’s side of the gulf closed on February 1st, which means the effects of the closure will start to show within a week. The gulf side of the US is still open.
