ca 3 — There are fishing boats that catch 200-300 kg of croaker, not to mention other seafood. With croaker selling for 20,000 VND/kg, this first fishing trip of the year earned over 10 million VND. Photo: Xuan Hoang

ca 9 — Among the seafood that customers love at the beginning of the year are shrimp, squid... especially anchovy fish (savory fish) which is sought after by many people, so this type of fish, priced at 130,000 VND/kg, is still not available for sale, because the quantity caught is not much.

ca 8 — Fishermen said that at the beginning of the new year, many customers from the city are returning to their hometowns to celebrate Tet, so they go to the fishing port to buy fresh seafood to eat, so the prices of shrimp, squid, anchovies, etc. are higher than before Tet. However, according to the Lach Van Fishing Port Management Board, on the 4th day of Tet, the number of fishermen "going to sea" at the beginning of the year is not much, about 10 boats, so the output is not high. It is expected that on the 6th day of Tet, most of the Dien Chau fishermen will go to sea together, so the output will be higher. Photo: Xuan Hoang
