One of the most widely consumed white fish in many parts of the world.
Sole (Solea vulgaris), also called common sole, is a species of flatfish of the soleidae family.
The body is ovoid and flattened on both sides, protected by small scales. It has a small, semicircular mouth, with nostrils in its blind area. Its dorsal and anal fins are almost joined to the tail by a membrane. And, when it senses that it is in danger, it flaps its fins to cover itself with sand and bury itself completely.
During the day it remains almost motionless as it is mainly nocturnal. The female lays between 100,000 and 150,000 eggs of 1.5 mm in diameter.
It inhabits the Spanish Atlantic coasts, the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. It is found on sandy or muddy bottoms at a depth of 100 m, and in temperate temperatures.
The fishing season runs from January to April. The fishing gear used to catch them are gill nets and trawls.
Its flesh is firm, succulent, with a light fat content and very easy to flake, and it is considered a white fish with multiple health benefits.
