The amberjack is one of the great lords of the Mediterranean Sea. A solitary rockfish that lives hidden in caves and deep crevices. Fishermen have always spoken of it with a certain reverence: it is not just any fish, but a patient, powerful, and cunning inhabitant of the sea that knows its territory and is only deceived if the sea allows it. In ancient times, it was believed that old specimens, those that no one had ever caught, knew all the secrets of the sea and could hide or change location as if they had thoughts. Therefore, when a fisherman found a large one, there was often a mixture of respect and superstition.
