After the lunar New Year festival, hundreds of onshore fishing vessels in the central province of Quang Ngai landed full catches of anchovy. Many fishermen earn VND200 million after a night of working.
In early morning, the trade of anchovy is bustling in Sa Ky and Tinh Ky seaports.
According to fishermen, their fishing is conducted throughout the night, at sea that is 25-30 nautical miles offshore.
Each vessel with 8-11 labourers could collect some 3-6 tons of anchovy, some getting 10-11 tons.
Each kilogram of anchovy is sold at VND25,000-38,000.
Fishermen have bumper fishing voyages.
