Tuna fishing takes place in tropical seas, most of the time very far from the coast. The fishing process begins when the boat manned by approximately 24 people set sail, ready for a journey that can last up to 60 days in the open sea. When the ship finds the school of tuna, it frees the pangón manned by 2 sailors located in the stern who hold one end of the net. Simultaneously, 6 speedboats go out to the water to starboard and encircle the bank; They are in charge of ensuring that the fish do not leave there, while they lower the fish that tries to flee before and during the maneuver. At the end, the boats park and release a special, totally ecological ink that inhibits the flight of the tuna, while the boat closes the fence. When the pangón is in the water placed in the opposite direction to the boat, wait for the boat to pull the other end of the net to make a circle to port until both (boat and pangón) meet again and then join the 2 ends of the net and close the fence. While all this is happening, the tuna is always trying to escape.Once the 2 ends of the net are joined in the boat, a circumference of approximately 500 meters in diameter is created in which the fish the fish is completely enclosed to the sides because the net forms a large cylinder in the sea that is uncovered from above and below. At that moment, the pangón goes to a strategic point to give stability to the boat during the lifting of the net.
