[ad_1]
TPO – This time, coastal people in Thach Ha district (Ha Tinh) are busy entering the specialty jellyfish fishing season. This year the weather is favorable, fishermen earn millions of dong on each trip to sea.

|
In the waters of Thach Van, Thach Tri, and Thach Hai (Thach Ha district, Ha Tinh province) are bustling with jellyfish harvest. |
 |
|
According to fishermen, jellyfish season usually lasts for 1 month, from March to April. This year, there were jellyfish weighing over 50kg, so transporting them to shore was very difficult. |
  |
|
Harvesting jellyfish does not require investment in costs or fishing gear like other seafood but still earns millions every day. In the photo, when the boats docked, the women who work in purchasing jellyfish have prepared trailers, styrofoam boxes, buckets, plastic trays… for quick purchasing. |

|
Jellyfish, after being cut, classified, and initially processed, are washed with sea water. |
 |
|
Then transport it to seafood purchasing and processing establishments in the area. Some facilities also clean jellyfish directly right on the beach. |
 |
| Compared to previous years, this time the jellyfish catch is less, but there are many beautiful, large jellyfish buds that sell for high prices. |
 |
|
Fishermen said that on average, each boat out to sea collects about 4 tons of jellyfish. |
 |
| During the main season, each boat earns about 2-3 million VND per day, sometimes from 200,000 to 1 million VND. |
  |
|
Fresh jellyfish are purchased, washed, beaten, and initially processed at the beach. |
  |
|
Previously, jellyfish were only soaked in salt to become salty jellyfish and then sold to the market. However, in recent years, in order to increase the value of jellyfish, production facilities have upgraded and processed worms into instant jellyfish. |
