Do you know about yellowtail?
It's the prefectural fish of Akita Prefecture, and an essential part of the prefecture's winter diet.

But in recent years, something strange has been happening in the seas off the coast of Japan.
Yellowtail are literally plentiful, offered at incredibly low prices, and any surplus was sold for fertilizer.

There are various theories as to why this is happening, including rising sea temperatures and past overfishing.

Will the yellowtail ever return?
I've only eaten a handful of yellowtail this year. I think I've only had yellowtail once.

I want to eat my fill of yellowtail again. And drink some good sake. It's the dream of all Akita residents.

That's why I sing the blues.
With all my love for yellowtail, joy, sorrow, and joy.

Please listen. The Sandfish Man's Blues.
