Depending on the season this could be the white of blue species. Gets to a massive size well over 1000lbs and any typical fish is a big deal so these are sought after and add to the excitement and you never know…they are amazingly fast reaching speeds of up to 50mph a truly top trump.

A great fast speedy predator that makes a brilliant sport fish. Will give you a tremendous fight as they are so powerful and muscular. Chances are you have eaten a part of one. They are a species of fish that has been farmed successfully which is good news when global fish stocks are under pressure.
