Hi and welcome to Capt. Ron's Albacore Tuna website!! I'm glad to have your interest and trust that we can deliver a food product you will be happy with... This product is the catch of 1 vessel, the "Amy Usen"...
We have been operating the vessel for 15 years and have a history of producing fish to the highest standards...Until now most of our catch has been sold direct to the discerning Japanese market as Sashimi grade...We learned from the Fishermen and Fish buyers of Japan the techniques in catching and processing to preserve the fish’s natural goodness...The Fish are super quick frozen at sea to -40°C and held on board until delivery to a HAACP approved Plant (Canadian) where they are filleted and vacuum bagged for sashimi or made ready for canning...We know as fishermen that these wild fish we are catching are about as good as food gets!! I'm still just as excited about going fishing as I was back when i started in 1972...and really pleased to start marketing our own catch....
I hope you find it affordable and delicious!! " What a Life” Regards!!! -Capt. Ron |
