Taiwan is on a par with Korea as a squid fishing nation, with these two countries behind only Japan in this category. Moreover, since much of the catch in Japan and Korea is taken near home, Taiwan looks like the topranked country in terms of "long-range" squid fishing.
這樣的規模，使台灣成為日本之後，與韓國並列第二、三名的魷釣國；日、韓都有近海捕魷，因此以「遠洋」魷釣來看，我們則是全世界第一。
