So if you think tuna farming causes problems for us how about the problems for the wild stock? Solution, eliminating the japanese might be possible solution! ;)
Then where would we get all our decent tackle from?! LOL not to mention good quality,reliable outboard's,cars,motorbikes....:D

But seriously the japanese are now pouring vasts ammount's of money into researching how to breed/complete the whole life cycle of BFT (egg to adult)

..let's hope they figure it out,and soon! Then maybe they will then be able to breed their own tuna and negate the need for local fishfarm's and others around the world...not that this will help the dolphins and whales,which unfortunatly they also consume in vast quantities.... :(

There is no such thing as too much equipment.
