how much weight you looking for and fresh or frozen?
I can source as much as you like just depends on what size fish your after and what location you are and i presume you mean whole.

Hi Sam,

I'm after the cheapest price so that would be frozen I assume.

Fish size about 500g-1kg

5kg total of fish to start.

Im in the Gold Coast.

Mate i'm on the coast and are commercial and can give wholesale price but for such a small amount i don't know if it's worth my time if you decide you'd like more weight let me know i've got 500kg IQF frozen for personal use and catching close to a tonne a week at present fresh, price is around $5kg.

Wassa i've got a small stockpile of frozen left only about 300kg stored at one of my fish buyers if you pm me your details i'm on the goldy we might be able to organize something as far as fresh i usually offload that day to wholesalers but you better get in quick because the fish are already starting to go out of season.
