Hand-caught off the East Coast of South Africa
Conan Marine fishes by hook and line, one fish at a time. Premium linefish, iced within minutes and traceable from hook to plate.
Our method
One line. One hook. One fish.
The Conan, our first boat, works the coastal grounds the slowest way there is, and that is the point. Hooked, bled, and iced within minutes, every fish is worth more because of how it was caught.
No nets, no trawl
A hand line goes down and comes up with one fish, chosen. Species-selective by nature, not by exception.
Zero seabed contact
Hook and line never touch the bottom. The grounds we fish today are the grounds we fish next year.
Released alive
Undersized or off-species goes back over the side alive. What comes aboard is exactly what was meant to.

Traceability
Bled, iced, logged
Minutes out of the water, each fish is bled and buried in ice. Then it is logged: this vessel, this line, this hour, these coordinates. Not a batch. A fish.
That record travels with it through the cold chain to distributors, kitchens, and export. Ask, and we can show you the fish.
