    I'd say its a Fillet-O sp. It's a pretty common variety....although the american does make it slightly more rare.

    hmmm. looks like squaribus fishyiscus from the south pacific around the antartic. by the way it is browned it seems like the deep water variety that is harder to catch and more expensive. lol.
