"Don't be in such a rush to wipe them out," says fisherman Chien Wan-tsai. In the past fishermen weren't willing to catch fish that had swum south of Chiating, because these were all adults that were ready to lay their eggs, and the prices for the fish or the eggs were not so good.
「不能趕盡殺絕呀」，漁民簡萬財說，過去漁民不大願意捕捉游到茄定以南的烏魚，因為這些都是即將產下軟軟的「水蛋」的成熟魚，卵跟魚的價格都不好。
