This is a 100kg+ bigeye tuna caught off fraser island..This is spiking the fish for the sushimi market,the guy doing it was showing a new crew how its done.He knows what he's doing he's done up to 260 fish per day! the TANIGUCHI method is being used where a wire is run down the spinal cored to stop the biochemical reaction that contributes to the flesh deterioration....
wouldn't it make more sense to iki jime the fish while its still alive? doing that while its dead defeats the whole purpose of stopping the "biochemical" reactions. at that point after its dead haven't the reactions already begun? IDK im no commercial fisherman but it only makes sense to me that way correct me if im wrong

@Goofus5453 You MUST be joking. Or blind, deaf and stupid. I mean, seriously dude! More fish now than ever? Have you ever looked at catch records? Check 'em out. Look at global fish catches since WWII and then tell me that I am preaching BS!
I feel terrible for the small commercial fishermen, whose lives and jobs have been stolen by international industrial fisheries and industrial fish farming. They aren't the ones who are causing the problem

@greatwhite1222 I wish that were true. I just returned home from the US Atlantic coast from watching sharks. The waters there are relatively rich still. The fishing is good. But the limits of the fish are shrinking rapidly. The ocean was filled with jellies because of too much pollution and too much fishing of predators.
I have no problem with fishermen per se. Commercial fishing is not a crime, it's management is. Science based quotas and marine reserves would help allow population reccovery.

everybody who loves animals are saying tht quotas are being cut short.....u dont understand what its like to be a commercial fishrmen.......u wouldnt like it if u were a fishermen and your quota was cut in half and u had to make twice as many trips just to barely feed a family...ppl dont understand tht we need money to support families and houses

@jonser2008 i llove animals but the fish are doing better than ever right now.....all the fisheries are helping tag and recover the species there catching even atlantic longliningers are tagging tuna swordfish and sharks to help population grow so no nothing is going to happen to the fish for at lleast 100 or so years
