The good news is Cesium-137 has a 30 year half life. We'll have plenty of time to gather more samples and track data...

In all seriousness, its certainly disturbing but the amount of radioactivity they are finding is pretty trivial.

The levels of radioactive cesium were 10 times higher than the amount measured in tuna off the California coast in previous years. But even so, that's still far below safe-to-eat limits set by the U.S. and Japanese governments.


Love me some bluefin. 10 times under the limits, worth the risk. I bet they start checking more often...

Maybe this will kill demand and take some pressure off these fish.

The real question. Was this fish caught in season or out of season?

And as I get ready for my yearly long range charter I'm reading reports out of San Diego about a bluefin bite that is WFO.
