Yilan auctions first bluefin tuna of the year (2014/04/18)
A highlight of bluefin tuna season is the first catch of the year. Just a few days after the season kicked off in Pingtung with a 300-kilogram fish, Yilan’s first catch sold at auction today for a whopping NT$710,000.
The auctioneer is watching bluefin tuna being carried in as he begins the bidding in front of interested buyers at Nanfangao Harbor. After Yilan’s first bluefin tuna of the year was auctioned off, the captain of the winning fishing boat was all smiles.

Fishing Boat Captain
I’m pleased with the auction price. It could be better, but I’m just happy to have landed the first bluefin tuna in Yilan.
Yilan’s first bluefin tuna weighed 135 kilogram and fetched NT$710,000, or NT$5,300 per kilogram. After more than 20 years of fishing, this is the first time the captain has caught the year’s first tuna. The good price has inspired him to go back out to sea to continue fishing.
The individual who purchased the bluefin tuna waved a big wad of cash. He plans to share the catch with local elders and families.
