Description

Welcome to our FRESH, local and responsibly caught Yellowtail.  This is the Fish With A Story ‘Catch of the Day’ (COTD); you may PRE-ORDER and pay upfront, and we will contact you to deliver as soon as our fishers have had a successful day out in the boats (usually within 3-5 days with this species).

Your fresh fish will be delivered – on ice – WHOLE, scaled and gutted.  Note that we are avoiding the use of single-use plastics wherever we can, so please make sure that you have your own container ready for us to put your beautifully fresh fish into.  Choose from three (approximate) sizes – Small, Medium or Large 

**Important notes for the fresh, whole range of Fish With A Story:

  1. There may well be a slight delay with your order, as COTD is entirely dependant on fishing conditions and nature! We only make one delivery for your cart, so if you have other items in your cart that you need urgently please place a separate order for those.
  2. We can only deliver fresh fish within a +/- 60km radius of the Cape Town metropole – please email us to check for your area if necessary: marketplace@abalobi.org
  3. For other, less common species please try the ABALOBI Marketplace app.  You may also register for an account via the app and sign up for push notifications to get real time updates of all fresh ‘Catch of the Day’ coming through the Marketplace.

About Yellowtail 

Yellowtail is an iconic species, congregating in great shoals over the Struisbaai fishing banks in the summer months. It has a well-earned reputation for its superb, gamey taste, succulence and firm flesh. Excellent as ceviché, roasted whole, baked en papillote or braaied to sweet perfection.

This Yellowtail is part of a world-first Fisheries Improvement Project helping to drive triple-bottom-line sustainability in small-scale fishing communities in South Africa.

Quick ‘n Easy top tip: Brush with a mix of dune fig jam, mayo and soy sauce and braai on hot coals for 10-12 minutes until caramelised. Flake and serve with side greens.
