This is the last wild food
Host Tommy Gomes takes the audience on a coastal journey to meet the men and women of the American commercial fishing fleet and the chefs who prepare their hard-earned catch with delicious results. The series celebrates America’s fishing heritage, the people who live it, and the incredible food that connects them all.
4MP and Sporting Chef Productions developed The Fishmonger concept for the Outdoor Channel. The show takes 4th generation commercial fisherman Gomes on a coastal journey to introduce viewers to the heroes of the sea as they risk life and limb to sustainably harvest seafood for American consumers. The Fishmonger explores different fishing techniques, seafood preparation, and the culinary applications of various fish species. The show is a true boat-to-throat experience that engages the audience with practical tips and recipes they can try at home.
