Mr. Eamon Dixon:

Ten or 15 years ago, there was no issue with bluefin tuna. There was probably the odd one around, but they have accumulated now. From talking to lads on the south coast, I understand there were very many of them this year, and even on the west to north-west coast, in Donegal Bay. They were there in abundance. You would be looking not to catch them now if you did not want them.
