With the Chinese getting in on the sushi craze, i wonder for how much longer our restaurants will be able to provide tuna at affordable prices ? ...If at all.

Looks like you got almost $75,000 worth of tuna there, Kev ... you wouldn't have to look for a cheap boat if you sold it instead of eating it! LOL!

I've been saying all along that I've been chasing the wrong species. Blue fins have been sold for much more than that before. All we would have to do is to catch ONE/month.
