The New Zealand Government stipulates:
The diameter of the black gold abalone must exceed 12.5 cm to be caught;
Artificial diving fishing is the only legal fishing method of black gold bao;
The maximum number of fish caught per day per fisherman is 10.
Needless to say, this "black" abalone must be very precious.
The waters of New Zealand, home to the purest ocean in the world, are an ideal source for top seafood. As one of the largest abalones in more than 100 species of abalone in the world, black gold abalone grows here, because it is a unique product of New Zealand, and it is very precious, black gold abalone is also one of the representatives of New Zealand's national image.
The "black stone" that takes ten years to grow
Black abalone is generally most common on rocks with a depth of less than 5 meters, the suitable water temperature range is between 5 and 25 ° C, new Zealand's cold sea waters lead to slow growth of black abalone, in the age of 3 to 4 years old, can be bred.
From the appearance point of view, the "appearance" of black gold bao is really not high, and it is even easy to be mistaken for a stone. Usually a black gold abalone grows to a legally catchable size, which takes 8-10 years. Therefore, a bite of black gold abalone is not only eaten by the abalone itself, but also by decades of essence in the pure waters of New Zealand.
No one can collect more than 10 per day
In order to protect the environment and maintain sustainable fisheries development, the New Zealand government has set a series of strict restrictions on fishing quotas and fishing practices. The New Zealand government stipulates that artificial diving fishing is the only legal way to obtain black gold abalone, and the law prohibits the carrying of any artificial oxygen equipment while diving. In the limited time underwater, divers must also select abalone with a diameter of more than 12.5 cm to catch, which is extremely difficult.
In addition to the size, there is also a limit to the number of abalones collected, and no one can collect more than 10 abalones per day. If someone intends to take abalone abroad, the number cannot exceed 20 or 2.5 kg of abalone meat. Those convicted of illegal fishing and abalone trafficking face up to five years in prison or a fine of up to $250,000 in New Zealand.
Wouldn't it be okay to go fishing according to the government's regulations? Of course, but there is one thing that needs to be reminded that the waters that Black Gold Bao likes to grow in are also the favorite places for large, aggressive marine animals such as seals and sharks...
