At A Glance

Pole-and-line!

This albacore tuna is pole-and-line caught, meaning that it was caught with one pole, one line, and one fish at a time. 

This method of fishing provides minimal by catch, minimal plastic pollution and minimal overfishing, whilst delivering quality tuna to your plate.

Traceability 2018 Traceability Standards

In 2018, it was announced that all suppliers must use Trace Register traceability to comply with traceability standards set by Wholefoods to ensure the tuna that they sell to consumers is caught only using one-by-one techniques, completing Wholefood’s aim to reduce bycatch and overfishing, whilst supporting the fishery communities.

Trolling

Troll fishing uses single hooked lines that are dragged through the water off the back of a moving boat. The disturbance caused by the rapid movements of the lures and hooks resembles that of small, schooling fish and attracts tuna to the boat. Once a tuna bites on the hooks the line is brought in, the tuna is quickly detached and placed on ice, and the lure is returned to the water.
