Dien Chau fishermen stick to fishing grounds during holidays

(Baonghean.vn) During the April 30 - May 1 holiday, offshore fishing activities in Dien Chau still take place normally, with full fishing boats docking every day.

After 12 hours of fishing at sea, the pair of fishing boats of Cao Duc fishermen arrived at the port with more than 3 tons of squid and crabs of all kinds, all fresh. Fisherman Cao Duc shared: "We took advantage of these days to "increase trips" to go offshore to both meet the seafood needs of tourists during the holidays and increase the income of the crew."

Fish docked at the port waiting for traders to come and buy

These days, over 1,400 Dien Chau fishing boats have increased their trips to sea. Favorable weather from the beginning of the southern fishing season has motivated fishermen to stick to the sea. On average, Dien Chau fishermen exploit 600 - 700 tons of various types of seafood each day, which are purchased directly by traders at the wharf. After deducting expenses, each boat earns a profit of 10 - 15 million VND per day, and a boat that goes out for a week can earn up to 100 million VND per trip. The steady income of offshore fishing fleets can be seen as a positive sign, encouraging fishermen.
