The technique originated in Japan by Tuna fishermen, but is now in widespread use. A sharp knife, screwdriver or specially designed tool is inserted into specially marked spot, usually located slightly behind and above the eye, thereby causing immediate brain death because it disconnects the brain from the nervous system. The fish is killed immediately and it will go limp. Furthermore, the blood contained in the fish flesh retracts to the gut cavity, which produces a better coloured and flavoured fillet. This method is considered to be the fastest and most humane method of killing fish.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Australian Snapper Pink Snapper (Pagrus auratus) are wild caught and line caught in the Great Australian Bight and also found in warm to sub-tropical waters around Australia and New Zealand.
