Welcome to Moby Rick’s Ugly Fish
Our Story
After 2 years of seeing huge demand for fresh seafood at the Saratoga Farmers Market, and shortly after learning he was going to be a father to his daughter Joy, Captain Rick Lofstad founded Moby Rick’s Seafood in 2012.
A 3rd generation fisherman, he brings fresh fish and seafood from Long Island and wherever else we can source the best products, straight from us to you.
Family Legacy & Industry Leadership
The Lofstad family has produced over 6 million pounds of fish annually, roughly 1/6 of New York State’s finfish production. Captain Moby Rick owns two fishing trawlers, with additional vessels owned by other family members, and the family currently produces over 1 million pounds of seafood annually.
He formed New York State’s only fisherman’s co-op, managed Inlet Seafood of Montauk overseeing up to 90% of the state’s seafood distribution, and served eight years on the New York State Fishery Management Council. He was also the largest U.S. exporter of finfish to Spain and Japan, exporting over 12 million pounds annually, and is currently the owner of Pura Vida Fisheries, serving 25 farmers markets weekly.

Moby Rick’s Seafood, with retail locations in Saratoga Springs and Clifton Park, offers fresh and frozen seafood sourced from all over the world. If it swims, we can get it. Fresh staple and seasonal seafood is brought in three times per week, and we can also special order rare items on request.
