New Quick News At 6am on August 16th, the Humen New Bay Fishing Port, which had been quiet for three and a half months, resumed its lively activities.

Fishery administration, water police, and marine law enforcement vessels patrol nearby to maintain order.

At 12 noon, with the three sirens sounding, the three-and-a-half month summer fishing moratorium in the South China Sea ended. 218 fishing boats in Shajiao waters of the the Pearl River Estuary fired firecrackers in unison, and their engines roared, chopping the waves and sailing to the South China Sea, starting a new round of grand journey of farming, farming, herding and fishing.

It is reported that Xinwan Fishing Port is one of the 17 key construction fishing ports in Guangdong Province. The fishermen here mainly engage in offshore operations, and their catch is sold to Humen and surrounding towns and streets, which is highly favored by customers.

According to statistics, a total of 218 fishing boats set sail in Dongguan today, including 147 in Humen. Large and medium-sized fishing boats mainly go to traditional fishing grounds such as Wanshan Islands and Guishan Islands in Zhuhai, and return after about a week.
