i heard one of the major food chain stores in the u.k has stopped selling monkfish any one here the same. i think they said it was because there was pressure on the stocks. the trawler blokes said that it was based on non scientific evidence

Monk fish is not on sale in shops here. What is sold under the name of monkfish is anglerfish which are two different species
