Business Areas

• Coastal Improved Stow Net Fishing: Coastal improved stow net fishing is a method of fishing where nets are fixed with anchors in areas with strong currents, allowing schools of fish to enter the net for capture. It is mainly carried out in areas with fast currents, such as the West Coast, using small fishing vessels under 10 tons.

Products

• Various Coastal Marine Products: Through coastal improved stow net fishing, various marine products such as anchovies, salted shrimp, pomfret, hairtail, and blue crabs are caught. It is particularly known that small fishing vessels under 10 tons mainly catch anchovies, salted shrimp, and medium-sized shrimp.

Special Notes

• Flexible Fishing Method and Economic Efficiency: Coastal improved stow net fishing is a method where the net is supported by anchors and its opening is deployed using a spreading device, offering the flexibility to frequently change the deployment location during operation. Additionally, fishing activities are not directly linked to the vessel, resulting in low fuel consumption and a high profit margin relative to the catch.

💡 A Word from JobPloy
Coastal improved stow net fishing, like that of Myeongseongho, primarily involves physical labor performed on vessels, and working hours may be flexible depending on weather conditions. Foreign workers must strictly adhere to safety regulations, and due to the nature of fishing, close cooperation with colleagues is crucial, so efforts to improve Korean communication skills are necessary. It is advisable to understand that the intensity of work may vary depending on the catch.
