A rough sea, fishermen gain, although at a low price

January 25 from 2020 - 06: 37

During these days, the markets of the Marina Alta do not give credit for the large amount of fish that arrives at auction. Without a doubt, a joy for fishermen, but with bittersweet flavor as the end of the week approaches. And, the maritime storm produced by the arrival of the storm GloriaIn addition to removing a large number of species from the water, it has caused the breakage of two cages in the Altea fish farm, so thousands of fish swim along our coastline and are caught by fishermen.

In total, as you have learned Xàbia.com, about 400.000 kilos have been caught between croaker, sea bass and sea bream. As for the Xàbia brotherhood, between this past Thursday and yesterday Friday, nearly 3000 boxes, of about 7 kilos each, of gilthead and croaker were auctioned. A large quantity but that was auctioned at a ridiculous price, a very low price, at 2 euros per kilo, which made the counters of each fish shop fill, leaving, at the end of the day, tens of kilos without auctioning, still lowering the price to 0,50 ,XNUMX euros. A situation in which the fishermen affirm that after the work stoppage due to the storm, arriving at the port with a full boat and having the satisfaction of having had a good day, in the end they do not rent.

      Now that the sea can be repopulated again thanks to the thousands of fish that escaped from the cages, the professionals arrive and instead of doing a good fishing, and what they do is to devastate with the maximum they can so that later in the fish market they will Pay at a ridiculous price and have to throw half for not being able to sell it.
      Having professional fishing gentlemen think a little and rationing the fish, if you do not carry so much fish you will be paid more expensive and you will have the chance that the fish can procreate and thus have fish forever.
