Abstract

A study on the status of exploitation of Pseudapocryptes elongatus juveniles was carried out in the coastal areas of Ca Mau province from October 2021 to April 2022. Data were collected by interviewing 43 fishermen households to exploit the P. elongatus juvenile. Fishing gear used for catching the P. elongatus juvenile is a bag net with a length of 7.2±2.2 m and a width of 4.8±1.5 m. The result showed that P. elongatus of fish larvae was exploited from April to January next year, but the most exploited from May to July has the highest yield. P. elongatus with small sizes from 1 mm to 1.2 mm appear mainly from May to July, which is the beginning of the spawning season of goby, so the fish size is still small and also the months that account for the highest yield of the year. Large fish from 1.3 mm to 2 mm, and appear from May to January next year but mainly from September to December. The months without fishing households are February and March.
