  A 1,000 Pound Fish Will Net a Lot of Sushi or Tuna Sandwiches Mark Towers of Ghana was on an expedition in the eastern tip of Nova Scotia today and landed a 1,000 Atlantic Bluefin Tuna. It only took him 2 hours to land but it was so massive that it required a tow into port and a forklift to get it onto the dock.   Unfortunately it does not break the world record as a 1496 pound fish was caught in 1979 in the waters of Nova Scotia.   It is being sold for $32,000 to a buyer in Japan. The fish will net approximately 20,000 pieces of sushi.   The Atlantic Bluefin Tuna is one of the largest, fastest, and most beautiful metallic blue color and the fish is extremely tasty.   California is a dream come true state no matter what your needs or wants are.
