Accordingly, Mr. Nguyen and his group of 8 friends often go fishing along the Hieu River. About a week ago, they went fishing at night and discovered this eel in the section of the river flowing through Cham Put village. The group used crossbows to hunt the fish but failed. After that, they took turns watching the fish for a whole week. Around noon on November 12, the fish entered a cave and was surrounded and captured by a group of workers.
After negotiation, Mr. Tran Duc Thang bought this fish for 10.2 million VND.
