GIANT BLUE TUNA BREACHING OFF PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
--------------------------------------------------------------------
the giant blue tuna brings a good deal of money to PEI fishermen .
anglers have to pay BIG MONEY for being taken on a fishing trip to catch the giant blue - they can weigh up to 1,000 pounds . once caught , the fish belongs to the ship's owner who will sell the tuna for BIG MONEY to the japanese !
Quote:They are getting scarce, so the ones that are for sale I guess will be really expensive. A Hong Kong sushi shop paid a record $55,700 for a bluefin tuna the other day in the first auction of 2008 at the Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market, Agence France-Presse reported.
