On the 20th, the ban was lifted on the 20th, and fishing boats started fishing all at once from the port of Nemuro City, Hokkaido, which boasts the largest amount of catches in Japan.

Severe fishing is expected, such as poor fishing is expected this year.

For saury fishing in the North Pacific, the ban was lifted on the 20th for stick seine fishing by large vessels of 100 tons or more.



At midnight in Hanasaki Port in Nemuro City, where the amount of saury landed has been the highest in Japan for 12 years in a row, 20 fishing boats set off one after another while being seen off by their families.



The amount of Pacific saury, which has been poor for the past few years, is expected to surpass last year's record-low catch, but is still expected to remain at a low level. I'm here.



Until the 19th, only one small boat, which was lifted on the 10th of this month, has landed, and the amount is at a fairly low level of about 260 kg.



Also, this year, due to the worsening Japan-Russia relations, Russia may circumvent the exclusive economic zone claimed by Russia.



A 26-year-old man on deck said, "I feel like I should be able to catch more than last year. I want to be safe and catch a lot and come back."



A large ship is aiming for the first landing in this month.
