The best specimens of White Tuna

We commonly call it “Bonito del Norte” because it is caught in the Bay of Biscay in the Cantabrian Sea. It is a seasonal fish that is caught during the fishing season, also called “Cantabrian Coast” or “Bonito Coast”.

In order to maintain the quality and texture of the bonito as much as possible and also to improve the sustainability of our seas, tuna is fished mostly with hooks, one by one, using traditional fishing gear.

Una de las diferencias más fáciles de detectar frente otras especies de túnidos como el atún claro o el atún rojo, es que esta especie, además de ser de un tamaño más pequeño (30-100cm aproximadamente), tiene una aleta dorsal muy larga que destaca con respecto a su tamaño (de ahí su nombre científico).
