I just checked the exvessel market price for one of those babies.
Exvessel price = $8249.85
Landing tax = $274.95
Boats Gross = $7974.90
My take = $3987.45
Not a bad days wages.

I read the article in The Washington Post last night. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/07/06/AR200507 0602038.html The best line from the article[IMHO]: "When you catch it yourself," he said, "it has a special flavor to it."
So true.
And found this:
Obituaries
Charlie the Tuna Creator Tom Rogers Dies
By Joe Holley
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, July 8, 2005; Page B06
Tom Rogers, 87, a retired advertising copywriter whose beret- and sunglasses-wearing hipster tuna became an icon of pop culture, died June 24 in Charlottesville, where he lived with his son's family. He drowned while swimming alone in the family's backyard pool.

Looks like he was kept back a few grades in the
Offshore Delaware Coastal School of Tuna.
873 lb school bully,
now wearing a "Chicken of the Sea" label.
Stay in school.
