Bluefin Tuna $6000+ per pound!

[Fish On]

Happy 2026 all! You guys have probably already heard about this one but I thought of S-B.com as soon as soon as I read the article.

I thought $30 or $40/lb was a lot of money. $3.2 mil. for a fish seems insane! Japanese really love their tuna!

The first bluefin sold every year usually sells for a huge amount of money as it's supposed to bring good luck to the buyer.
