Listen to old fisherman Ha Tinh talking about hunting goldfish

Video documentary by Huong Thanh The villagers of Cam Nhuong beach village (Cam Xuyen) called fisherman Le Xuan Tien an old fisherman with the charm of “hunting” goldfish because more than a decade ago, only Mr. Tien caught this fish in large numbers. In the first 4 months of 2021, the boat of old fisherman Le Xuan Tien has won 3 batches of positive goldfish worth more than 1.5 billion VND. In which, for the first time, Mr. Tien won more than 2 tons of positive goldfish on January 24, 2021; for the second time, on April 16, he hit 2 tons; 3rd time, he hit again 1.5 tons. Mr. Le Xuan Tien’s boat hit more than 2 tons of goldfish on January 24, 2021 In addition, in the first months of the year, fishermen Le Xuan Tien also won many fishing trips with a total value of more than 1 billion VND. Although he has just won a lot after many trips out to sea, with fisherman Le Xuan Tien, whenever the weather is favorable, he is busy preparing gears to go “hunting” sea buds. At the age of 57, old fisherman Le Xuan Tien still works diligently, labor productivity is always superior even though his boat is only 110 CV. Video: Mr. Le Xuan Tien shares about the ocean goldfish fishing (made in April 2021) An indispensable tool in every trip of old fisherman Le Xuan Tien is a fish detector (also known as a stealth machine) and a locator. In 2010, after seeing that fishermen from outside the province were effectively fishing thanks to fish detectors, Mr. Tien invested nearly 100 million VND to purchase these machines for fishing. Mr. Tien shared: “I think the success of sea trips is partly due to luck, the rest is due to my hard work, my love for my job and my efforts. Except when the sea is rough and the full moon day, we go out to sea every day ”. From the effort and hard work, more than 30 years in the marine profession, Mr. Tien has drawn for himself many fishing experiences such as forging his clear eyes that can see through the fish in the dark or during the day. The main fishing ground that Mr. Le Xuan Tien operates mainly is the area around Hon Buoc island, 2-3 nautical miles from the coast. This field is full of rocks and corals, so it is easy to tear the net if the fishermen are still skilled. However, with the old fisherman Le Xuan Tien, he memorized the topography of each area around here the fishing was also somewhat more advantageous. According to Mr. Tien’s experience, during a dark night, the goldfish emits a bright light like the light of a flashlight. That is also the reason why this fish is called with many names such as snakehead fish and rhubarb. At a distance of more than 100m, old fisherman Le Xuan Tien can see through yellow and yang fish. In addition to his skillful technique of catching fins and tattooing, he is considered by local people as the “killer” of fishes, especially yellow fish. Documentary photo Recalling the last time “met” a flock of yellow ocean fish, fishermen Le Xuan Tien and the crew members on the boat still have feelings of joy. Mr. Tien said: “As usual, at 4:00 p.m. on April 15, we went out to sea to fish in the waters around Hon Buoc island. At 2:00 on April 16, when I looked at the flashlight, I discovered a stream of fish swimming about 5 meters away from the boat, sparkling with bright yellow color, so I am sure it is a yellow fish. Immediately, Mr. Tien steered his boat around the area where the fish appeared in order to localize it, then teamed up with crew members to spread the net 300m in length and drop into the sea in an arc shape. After more than 2 hours of struggling, fishermen Le Xuan Tien and 9 crew members joined forces to bring the fish to the boat compartment. On this trip, Mr. Tien had to hire two more boats to transport fish to Con Go port. Fisherman Lai The Ha (Xuan Bac village, Cam Nhuong commune) – Mr. Tien’s crew member said: “Those who work as fishermen in Cam Nhuong commune all admire Mr. Tien’s skill. He is not only good at detecting and locating fish flocks and running streams, but he is also good at receding fin technology in rocky fishing grounds. He has clear eyes, looking at a distance of 100 meters that he can distinguish a red fish or a black fish. From the beginning of the year until now, I have earned more than 150 million dong from fishing boat Mr. Tien ”. Video: Fishermen Lai The Ha shares his income as well as his experience and ability to “hunt” for yellow and ocean fish (made in April 2021). It is known that from November 2020 up to now, fishermen Le Xuan Tien’s boat has had more than 40 sea trips and an income of more than 2.5 billion VND. In which, boat owners earned more than 1 billion VND; The remaining 9 crew members each earn an average income of more than 150 million VND. Mr. Le Xuan Tien is the only fisherman who has been able to catch yellow ocean fish after more than a decade of fishing in Cua Nhuong waters. The fish batches of old fisherman Le Xuan Tien are creating a great motivation for fishermen in Cam Nhuong commune to buy and repair more fishing gears, repair boats, invest in machinery to continue to rise offshore and stick to the sea.
