Behind the Mediterranean Bluefin Tuna Trade | Pew
Mind the Gap, an analysis of worldwide trade in Mediterranean bluefin tuna, shows a significant gap in the trade of bluefin tuna, compared to what can be caught legally every year. In 2008, the gap between the trade and quota was 31 percent. By 2010, that gap grew to 141 percent. But solutions exist. Pew is calling for an electronic catch documentation system to replace the current paper system, to allow for better tracking and monitoring of the bluefin tuna trade.

Is the Blue Fin Tuna Threatened with Extinction? | Global 3000
The red meat of the blue fin tuna is very rich, nutritious and very tender. That's why it's considered a delicacy in Japan and other countries. But nature conservation organization such as the World Wildlife Fund fear that the fish is on the brink of extinction. The blue fin is already on the "Red List of Threatened Species" published by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, the IUCN. Experts say illegal overfishing is what has put it there. Read more: www.dw-world.de

Bluefin Tuna 3/16/12
We were fishing out of Pirates Cove on the A Salt Weapon, when the mate hooked up on a popper. He didnt have to ask twice as I quickly grabbed the rod. The fight was back and forth for and just as the fish nears the boat, my harness snaps and I nearly lost the rod if it wasn't for the harness slapping the bail open as it. Unfortunately I lost about 50-75 yds of line during that mishap and couldn't get it back as my grip started to fail me. I chose to pass the rod off to Andy who quickly got him in range for a quick measure and harpoon to the gills. Overall this was the single most exciting fishing experience I've had to date. I can only hope to get back out there soon and do it all over again.
Tuna Hunter, Two 800lb Giant Bluefin Tuna - Too Big for the Fish Door
This is still the first 800lber of the day. This guy came in relatively easy - an hour battle - but does not fit through the fish door, so we use block and tackle strung up to the tuna tower to haul this beauty aboard. When doing so, the crew needs to take care to not bruise the fish - the Japanese like perfect fish for their sushi. The second fish of the day was just a bit smaller - skinnier? He made it through the fish door. Good thing, because we were hauling him aboard at 9pm at night. Tuna Hunter did a wheelie all the way home, with two 800lbers in the cockpit. Trim tabs can only do so much!

Bluefin Tuna sells for $736000 in Japan!
All across the globe and Nihon-koku (Japan) headlines and news reports beam the sale of one Bluefin tuna for the hefty price of $736000 for a 593 pound tuna. That interprets to around $1238 per pound. That event is not normal in the Bluefin tuna market. The price of Bluefin tuna is set on the world market, much like oil (petroleum) and averages around $9.00 a pound. This event was the result of the first auction of the year. Also it provided millions of dollars' worth of free publicity for the restaurant who paid the $736000. The restaurant chain Suchi-Zanmai for their $736000 received in return millions of dollars in free publicity, and a 593 pound Bluefin tuna. This news was broadcasted all across Japan both in print and electronically (radio, television, and Internet news reports). So-called animal rights groups who are in actuality anti-capitalist claim the Bluefin tuna stocks around the world are in danger. However looking at the reports linked below the opposite seems to be true. Around 80% of Bluefin Tuna caught around this planet are shipped to Japan. Once received in Japan, the Japanese keep precise records in an attempt to maintain the sustainability of this food source. - News article about this Bluefin tuna sale: www.usatoday.com Link to the SAFE report which details average historical sales prices per pound on table 5.2, page 135.

Fishy Video: Most expensive tuna ever sells for $750000
A bluefin tuna, bought for nearly three-quarters of a million US dollars has been sliced up and served to eager customers at a Japanese restaurant in Tokyo. The tuna, caught off northeastern Japan fetched a record 56.49 million yen, (about 736000 US dollars,) on Thursday in the first auction of the year at Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market. The price for the 269-kilogramme (593-pound) tuna beat last year's record of 32.49 million yen (around 420000 US dollars.) Though the fish is undoubtedly high quality, the price has more to do with the celebratory atmosphere that surrounds the first auction of the year. The winning bidder was Kiyoshi Kimura, the president of Kiyomura Co. which operates a nationwide sushi restaurant chain called Sushi-zanmai. The best slices of fatty bluefin, called "o-toro" in Japan, can sell for 2000 yen (24 US dollars) per piece at Tokyo sushi bars. But the restaurant chain is offering the tuna at its usual price of 418 yen (around 5.44 US dollars) for an "o-toro", and cheaper for other less fatty parts of the tuna. With a long queue of customers circling the block around the restaurant, Kimura has limited orders to just one piece per person. The tuna was caught off Oma, in Aomori prefecture just north of the coast that was battered by the March 11 tsunami. Japan eats 80 percent of the Atlantic and Pacific bluefins caught, the most sought-after by sushi lovers. Japanese fishermen, however, face growing calls for tighter fishing rules amid declining tuna ...

Bluefin Tuna Fishing Report - Sunday, November 6, 2011
We went bluefin tuna fishing on Sunday, November 6, 2011, travelling out of Hyannis, MA. We left the dock at approx. 2:30 AM, and we arrived at the fishing ground at 6 AM. We wanted to start the day off with some cod, so we dropped our jigs to the bottom. After about 1.5 hours, we landed approx. 40 cod weighing an average of 10 to 18 lbs. Needless to say, the cod fishing was terrific! The main equipment used was the Monster Jig. Also, while cod jigging, I hooked a nice 350 lbs. Mako Shark which I landed in about 40 mins. I was using the Monster Jig with a pink silicone skirt and glow B2 squid. After a good amount of cod and Mako Shark action early on, we wanted to target what we came for, the bluefin tunas. At approx. 1 PM, I hooked on to a tuna. I fought it and got it about 10 to 15 feet below the surface. We were able to see the tuna and estimated it to be in the 120 to 150 lbs class. We were all excited but danger followed shortly afterwards. As the crew were getting the gaff and the harpoon ready, the line suddenly snapped and the rod went limp. We saw the bluish white shadow swim away. It felt as if the tuna was teasing us as it made its escape. After this disappointment, my son struck again! He hooked onto something but couldn't tell what it was at first. He stated that it felt like a dogfish. After about 20 reel turns, the line went taut and the fish charged out like rockets blasting. After only about 3-5 seconds, the line snapped again. At this point, I was ...

Bluefin Tuna Fishing Report -- Tuesday, November 8, 2011
We went on a bluefin tuna fishing trip on November 8, 2011, travelling out of Hyannis, MA. We left the docks at 3 AM and we got to the fishing grounds at 6 AM. Within about 10 minutes from the first drop, my son was hooked on a tuna. We landed it in approx. 20 mins. and it turned out to be a nice 100 pounder, measuring about 47 inches. About an hour after the first catch, my son was hooked on a second tuna, but it was snagged on the side. This one was about 49 inches. My son was hot on this day!! Those 2 tunas turned out to be the only keepers on this trip, as the others did not meet the size regulations. However, we did hook on 4 more undersized tunas; 2 were on jigs, one each by me and Eric. The other 2 were on bait. We also had a good amount of cod, with Albert being the cod master! Overall, it was an amazing trip and beautiful weather. To make things even more exciting, we hooked on a whale at one point. The buzzing noise coming from the reel on the bait setup was so loud and powerful. It made everyone jump thinking it was a huge tuna!!
