Dissostichus eleginoides
Patagonian Toothfish
Patagonian Toothfish is one of the tastiest fish available on the market, well-known for its firm white flesh, even texture and the abundance of Omega-3 oils in the meat. It is sold under the trade name of Chilean Seabass in the USA, Bacalao in Chile and Mero in Japan.
Falkland Island waters in this area are deep with fast moving cold currents. Lines are often set to about 1700 metres and can be displaced by several miles over several hours. Southerly currents often bring small icebergs up from the outer reaches of Antarctica making fishing conditions relatively difficult.
