OT: I wonder if there was shill bidding?
|
I believe that is a High End (HE) sticker on the tuna's right flank.
|
Plus it has a Heinie Wagner auto on its dorsal fin (full COA)....

Yep. I see EBAY bidder Sta*rK**t ran it up big time.

The auction seemed fishy to me.

I may be all wet, but I believe this is the best tuna thread this forum has ever seen.
|
My first look at that big tuna sent me reeling, but the more I see it, the more I'm hooked. I wonder if it took 54 nets to land it. Seems like a good topic for de-bait.
|
The thread is pretty interesting, but I have already started to tuna it out.

Well Frank, you know what they say, "You can tuna piano, but you can't tuna fish"

The winning bidder burst into song, but he can't carry a tuna.

For those of us unschooled in fish genders, can you tell if that tuna is ahi or a-she?

of course there was shell bidding...

Gill bidding is rampant in these Japanese Fish Market Auctions. :eek:
|
Assuming the whole thing was used, 612 lbs x 16 oz/lb /12 oz/can = 816 cans of tuna...or... better yet, -one delicious 1909-11 T206 Honus Wagner!

Recently got a catch of mine graded in the group sub to Professional Saltwater Authenticators, but I didn't notice the small problem with the tail, so I got hammered with the dreaded PD (predator defect) qualifier...

It was caught with a Carew Rod.

Bill Parcels remains unimpressed

I'll bet it's more valuable if it remains unopened.
... or if it's remains are unopened. |
My friend, Salmon I were going to put a bid on the tuna for the halibut before herring, that Dr. Marlin, a koi heart sturgeon with no sole, would be bidding. Once bidding began some shrimp with mussels tide up the dock who could not raise his paddle to bid.
