Summer Season Fish

 Generally when we decide to buy fish we mainly focus on freshness, we worry if it is sea-fished or farmed, but have you ever wondered if it is in season?

Seasonal fish are those that are not in the reproductive phase.

Eating these species allows others to grow at their own pace.

Our local fish are those that pass through our seas.
Eating them avoids making others travel for thousands of kilometers.

Furthermore, not everyone knows that for most crustaceans, fish and molluscs there is a minimum size below which they cannot be fished and marketed (although these rules are often ignored).

We should pay more attention to what is in season for various reasons: it is more convenient economically, it respects the cycle of nature and the territoriality of the species.
