Retailers, Stores & Markets Offering IMPORTANT
NOTE: THE FOLLOWING RETAILER LISTS ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. Also note that all troll-caught albacore tuna from the retailers listed on this webpage originally came from fishermen, small family-owned businesses, processors, and other buyers that actively contribute to the American Fishermen's Research Foundation. The Foundation is dedicated to aid, encourage, promote and support science and education relating to Pacific albacore tuna. Research projects and other activities are funded by a $20 per ton assessment for each ton of Pacific Albacore landed by WFOA members; fishermen also contribute their time and equipment to AFRF data collection projects [click here to visit the AFRF website].
AVAILABILITY IN WEST COAST FRESH SEAFOOD MARKETS AND COUNTERS Many seafood markets and groceries in California, Oregon, and Washington often offer troll-caught albacore marked as "LOCAL ALBACORE TUNA," "COASTAL ALBACORE," or "OREGON ALBACORE." While these terms are inaccurate, when you see albacore marked in this manner you are looking at the YOUNGER, SMALLER, OMEGA-3 RICH TROLL-CAUGHT ALBACORE! The loins will be roughly wedge-shaped, tapered on the end, and no bigger than the size your forearm. In contrast, large steaks or loins marked as "tombo," "longline-caught albacore" or just plain "albacore" come from older, leaner albacore that have drier meat and less Omega-3s. A number of American Fishermen's Research Foundation board members are among the hundreds of seafood counters offering troll-caught albacore, including:
