The catch mainly consisted of blue fin tunas and yellowtails, and whales were only caught sometimes. During the course of a year up to 10 whales were caught. Many aspects of whaling technique were believed to be influenced by the traditional whaling method. Only the inhabitants of the neighboring village of Kataura cut the captured whales; they performed a unique ceremony before carving the whale.

Of the 6 types of whales that were caught the number of Humpback whale (Megapetera novaeangliae) captured was the greatest among them. The capture location of the whale was very close to the coast except that of Sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus). Small scale whaling was conducted again, and a small number of whale was sporadically caught in the following 5 years 1934, 1935, 1957, 1958 and 1961. The whaling station has been closed since 1962. Due to the whaling activities in both areas, a large number of cetaceans were caught during their seasonal migration; therefore they became extinct in a few number of years. This extinction is believed to be due to the modern whaling techniques that were developed during the years that resulted in the capture of many cetaceans in the northern sea.
