ALSO CALLED BLACK COD, THIS FISH IS NOT ACTUALLY A MEMBER OF THE COD FAMILY. ITS NAME DEVELOPED DUE TO THE BLACK, ALMOST FURRY SKIN. ANOTHER NAME IS BUTTER FISH BECAUSE IT MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH DUE TO THE HIGH OIL CONTENT. THIS ALSO MAKES IT PERFECT FOR SMOKING BUT SHORTENS THE SHELF LIFE. SABLE CAN BE FOUND IN THE PACIFIC FROM ALASKA TO SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
