Is it important to you when buying tinned tuna to know it was pole and line caught (one at a time by fisherman).

[Pete65]

No.

[catswhiskas]

Yes , if you care about the oceans and the other creatures living in it, there might come a day when they are all endangered.

[EcclesCake]

Yes.

I am a strong believer in ethical food and farming practices.

[Gill1941]

Yes. Agree with Eccles 100%.

Other methods of fishing can kill other wildlife including dolphins.

[rockyracoon]

Yes, I also agree with Eccless. I really don't fance a bit of Flipper turning up in my sarnies.

[wired]

Yes,I try and shop responsibly, within my "means" and time.I haven't purchased cod in just over 30 years.

[ummmm]

Yes....I wouldn't buy it otherwise.

[pastafreak]

Definitely yes.

[Tilly2]

Very important and it doesn't cost that much more.

Who cares how it was caught? Non-line caught tins of tuna are cheaper so it's a no-brainer

[Tilly2]

Thanks for that link, Chris.

[humbersloop]

I don't understand why they don't just go straight for blast fishing myself

Hoover up fish stocks if you must. Just stay away from the cliffs and beaches of N. Yorkshire where ours comes from, courtesy of one of my mate's rods.
