Thanks Taña. I don't know how I missed that one as I did -as usual- search the term here first. Must've been on 'exact match'. Sorry. And Álvaro- ever helpful, thanks for the link. :)

John Dory

See the link. Apparently it's known as San Pedro in some parts of Spain and San Martín in others.

agree moken : That's right - commonly San Martín in Asturias and Sanmartiño in Galicia. http://www.maestropescador.com/nombres_comercialesP_comun.ht... :O)
