Hokkaido Hakodateshi Wakamatsuchou 9-19

This morning market in Hakodate has a fishing pond with squid in it. The large oval fish tank inside the market is filled with live squid swimming about vigorously. To fish, pay at the shop front and then wait your turn to use the provided fishing pole and catch yourself a squid. One of the most exciting things about the fishing tank is that once caught, the squid will retaliate by shooting out jets of sea water. As the value of squid fluctuates, so too does the price of fishing for squid here. You can have the squid you catch processed right then and there to eat as sashimi.

The Ekini market is a part of the Hakodate Morning market, just about 50 yards from the JR Hakodate station. It is filled with vendors selling lots of seafood, vegetables, fruit, and flowers. The...
