Fishermen land the first catch of the season for autumn salmon, also known as chum salmon, in the port town of Taiki, Hokkaido, on Monday. The fixed-net fishing ban for the fish was lifted on the day. Fishermen skillfully sorted out the males and females from five boats. Female autumn salmon sold for ¥1,900 per kilogram during the bidding, while males sold for ¥950. Both were priced higher than an average year.
