'The king of the sea', wild sea bass is caught in local waters and has the finest delicate flavour and deliciously firm but flaky flesh.
An average sized fish will normally feed between 3 - 4 people for a main course ranging from 1kg to 1.6kg fish.
This fish will never be the cheapest option but, we firmly believe it is in the top five best fish to eat. Sea bass is a great low-fat source of protein, and a good source of selenium; which is a powerful anti-oxidant.
IMPORTANT: Please note that a ban on catching Sea Bass is in place from February, usually for 2-3 months. This means that we will not be able to supply this fish during this time.
Facts
- Premium source of low fat, lean protein
- Landed in Newlyn
- Good availability in winter but more sporadic in summer
- We may replace hook and line caught bass with netted bass if stocks are low
Please note that due to market conditions, sometimes dictated by the weather, on rare occasions, we may have to send you frozen fish, which could arrive partially defrosted.
