Hi Peg A,

Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm not much of a fish-eater myself but I do REALLY like Halibut. We bought some of the heilbutt here and it didn't seem anything like Halibut. (not nearly as rich) Thanks!
Heilbutt is indeed Halibut, though as someone who's caught and eaten quite few halibut, your description of the fish as "rich" is a little odd. It's a very mild, lean, firm and white fleshed fish, whereas fish like eel, mackerel, or bluefish are more likely considered to be rich. Are you sure you've got the right fish?
