Our wild fish is caught off the Cornish coast by small boats fishing out of the stunning port of Looe. The BBC series ‘Coast’ featured the port, saying its day boat system brings in “the freshest fish obtainable anywhere in Britain.”
Jamie Morton-Clark is down at the port each morning when the boats arrive. He’s our fishmonger so he’s in charge of picking up the best catches. “The fishermen use a variety of methods to catch certain types of fish and do what they can to protect the stability of fish populations,” he explains. “For instance, they have increased the size of the mesh in their nets which gives young fish a better chance of escaping from the haul. They also target species they know are in plentiful supply in different seasons.
Gilthead bream is a solid white fish with a firm texture, and ideal for a wide range of cooking styles. It is particularly suitable for steaming, roasting and Thai cooking.
Edwards fishermen are careful not to catch fish that are breeding, so during breeding periods, some fish will be unavailable. The weather also has an inevitable impact on sea fishing. If a fish is unavailable we will try to always contact you.
We guarantee that your fish will have at least 3 days before its expiry date, including the day of your delivery. All of our fish can be frozen.
