This swordfish is over 3m long, has a belly width of about 80cm, and weighs 200kg when placed on the scale. The fish's body has 2 colors: white and black.
Mr. Khoi said that after bringing the fish to shore, he sold it to a trader for 16 million VND.
Previously, at 5:00 a.m. on February 1, Mr. Khoi and 3 crew members were fishing in the area of Con Co Island, about 40 nautical miles from shore, when they discovered a large marlin caught in the net.
It took him and his colleagues a lot of time and effort to bring this fish to shore to sell to traders.
Hearing that Mr. Khoi caught a huge swordfish, many people gathered to watch.
Previously, in 2021, Mr. Khoi's boat also caught a 550kg marlin. He then sold the fish to a trader for 22 million VND.
