Haha, I don't think there is anything quite like those Tassie lobsters mate. Crazy to see the difference. After you see the work these blokes put in for a 500g specimen, it makes me appreciate what you have going on down there even more.
@jimmyfumbanks6081 US lobsters are wild caught, Vietnam lobsters are farmed raised because the wild caught yield are too low. US is naturally lobster-endowed with minimal effort, whereas the Vietnamese have to come up with a way to increase their lobster yield to match market demand. Totally different
Great video, I was on some farms not far from these back in 2018. Some of my wife's relatives live in Tu Bong and one of them has a lobster farm. Unfortunately a few months before we visited they lost all their stock in a typhoon. We still got to sample some lobsters from a neighbouring farm while chiliing out on their farm.
the amount of work doing any sort of farming is insane. No wonder even the Chinese stopped doing it and now import most of their seafoods from Vietnam and Indonesia.
Intense and dense caged marine farming like that doesn't keep the oceans healthy. Go and do some research and you will find it is exactly the opposite. Farmed Salmon in Norway, Canada and Tasmainia (Australia) are good examples to start. This guy "Andrew" is telling you lies.
@@umumclean8161 seems like a much better option than overfishing our oceans to meet human demand, but nothings ever enough with you people, is it? How about you provide your research resources (credible resources made by legitimate scholars and scientists, not just some hippie with a blog) instead of telling everyone to google your nonsensical rambling?
Great video! The only thing I noticed is you had some really good music while you were talking throughout and sometimes it drowns you out, especially at the beginning.
You should do one on the New Zealand Green Mussels. China has build farms to harvest their own version of New Zealand Green Mussels. New Zealand have the monopoly on the Green mussels.
Some kind of tropical lobster lol. I would imagine if you are doing a whole show basically about these lobsters in this fishing village you might do a tiny bit of research on what type of lobster they are farming. I noticed this with another video also . It appears to be Spiny Lobster.
If the lobsters are farmed in Vietnam, does that mean that they are now cheaper to buy? What's more popular in Vietnam? Atlantic (Maine) lobsters or Spiny lobsters? And the price difference?
@BasstoMouthFishing - No I haven't. What is that? A video of some human being housing lobsters and feeding them trash to see if they'll eat? We all know, they're bottom feeders, but they're less likely to eat decay. However, tasty crabs will eat anything. They're still yummy. Agree or disagree.... Let a women know. 🤨
@ in this literal video they live on the farms…. That means that the farmers shit into the water… with there being thousands of farms in a single bay…. Well; if that wasn’t enough of an explanation than enjoy your poo lobster.
I don’t know about Boston lobster but if they get their lobster from Maine then Maine lobster would definitely beat Vietnam lobster in taste but not in prices. $46 per kilo for Maine lobster, $35 per kilo on this video ( he got the foreigners price). Usually is around $20-$27 per kilo in Vietnam.
by $35 per kg you can buy lobsters in Paris or Milan's best supermarkets. If you want to eat really cheap seafood, you have to go Oman. But, frankly saying, I don't think that lobsters' price is so high in Vietnam. Otherwise it would be unaffordable for locals, but we see that they are actively buy in the street market
I suspect the main reason why the price per kilo of lobster is near 50% more than what you'd see even in supermarkets in California is b/c its a tropical spiny lobster variety which tastes sweeter than Maine lobsters which I'd imagine are the stereotypical lobster we imagine. That and demand from China drives up the prices to an insane margin.
I’ve been to both countries and I can assure you that the lobsters in Danang are the largest I’ve ever seen. Even Panama and Pattaya have larger than Tasmania. Sorry to disappoint you.
I live in Hoi An / Da Nang. Large lobster here are imported. Cold water lobster species simply grow bigger than the species that live in hot water locations you mention. Science 🧬
This leads me to a question, in a country like Vietnam where Banh Mi is so famous and places that farm lobster like this.....DO lobster rolls exist in Vietnam? Are there lobster banh mi sales people somewhere
USD$35/kg is "standard price" from farm.. Good price... normally its around USD$10 per kg for "family". But you still got a good deal for live lobster. AUssie lobsters used to cost USD$200/kg
Firstly Heartiest Congratulations 👏 🏆 👏 For Your Most Interestingly Unique and Informative Channel 👍 🥳 👌 This IS My FIRST & Certainly Not The Last and Am Looking Forward To Reviewing All Your New Ones 🤗💦
Some type of antibiotic. They are extensively used in the fish and shrimp farms here. It is an issue as i'm sure you can imagine there are many externalities.
Wowza! So many lobsters there. Imagine if they got to the size of ours here in Tassie haha!

No fishing regulations or fishing regulation enforcment.
@@Andrew_Fraser I bet! This was an absolutely amazing video. Super informative. I didn’t even know these farms existed!
@@arktos298you want to be a typhoon to wipe them out mate?
@@TigersIII what's up dude? No fishing regulations or fishing regulation enforcment in this part of the world dude.
We're retired now in Vietnam from Texas. Vietnam is a heaven for foodies. The variety of seafood, fruits, and vegetables are second to none!
An amazing country to live in for sure
@@Andrew_Fraser 👍& sub'd
$35 a kilo for the Lobster . That isn't much different than the states even with bideneconomics.
Nah, i want my seafood for less when by the sea 😌

Vietnam is a foodie paradise. So many different cuisines
Life is not easy in Vietnam 🇻🇳. ❤❤❤
I first seen you on Sunny’s show now I see you here I’ll keep watching. Excellent video brother.❤
Thanks man. Great to have you onboard.
Sy dari Indonesia,, budidaya lobster jugak.
Silahkan datang ke Indonesia.
You deserve all the praise and recognition. Mark and Sonny have made their millions and its up to you now to bring something different to amaze us
Only Jesus deserves praise and recognition. Humans don't.
His video says people live on those floating farms, so ask yourself the question, "where does the human waste water, faeces and sewerage go" ????.
Can't wait to see you hit your first million subscribers
viet farmers are so hard working, land or sea! I'd love to visit again
Hard working people! I miss my country! Thanks for very nice videos!!!
great video, editing voice over, music. Your doing great Andrew. Nice drone shots. Very inspiring
With the variety of fresh seafood, tropical fruits, vegetables and herbs, Vietnam is indeed a heaven for foodies.
Another great episode Andrew. U make great content, very educational and informative with awesome views of the location.
Cheers 🇦🇺👍

Keep up the great work Andrew
as a Vietnamese myself, so proud to see such a beautiful place here
What about the pollution of the environment that is occurring. Lots of dumb people here.
DISCLAIMER: No lobsters were harmed iin the making of this video ......until they reached China.😮
Ilegally imported baby lobster from Indonesia
The chinese are already fishing outside their own economic exclusive zone in south china sea.
Thanks for the video Andrew.😊
Great channel! Hope you get more subscribers!
That was very interesting Andrew.
Thanks!
the amount of work doing any sort of farming is insane. No wonder even the Chinese stopped doing it and now import most of their seafoods from Vietnam and Indonesia.
Thank you ❤very interest information ❤Latvia ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Baltic is one of my favorite places on Earth. Very fond memories.
I still cant believe you dont have atleast a million subs. You have great content.
Andrew, great video! Thank you for sharing about other countries and how they use fish farms to keep our oceans healthy.

Easy to follow videos from Asia on aquaculture, thanks!!!
Very good ❤Latvia ❤
Great video! The only thing I noticed is you had some really good music while you were talking throughout and sometimes it drowns you out, especially at the beginning.
Thanks, ill watch the the levels.
A fantastic insight into the lives of some very hardworking people.
Wow that was some amazing footage, had no idea so much work goes into lobsters
I’m glad this video on this channel as reached 20k views! Great content Andrew! We’ll keep watching and learning.
I remember you for co-hosting on BEFRS! Nice to see you on your own 😊
Thank you for sharing the information,
Very useful video, really extraordinary seafood lobster,
You should do one on the New Zealand Green Mussels. China has build farms to harvest their own version of New Zealand Green Mussels. New Zealand have the monopoly on the Green mussels.
The water is a lot cleaner than most in Southeast Asia. They know what they are doing, it's awsome to see in such a recent video.
Glad I found your channel Andrew, you do a great job presenting it! Keep up the good work
I was today years old when I found out Andrew had his own channel. Instant subscribe 😂
The world’s loudest and slowest engine lol 😂 that made me laugh but I believe it 😂
Wow, good video!!!
Great one andrew keep at it 😊
excellent channel. I will support
Appreciate the support 🙏
Love your videos ❤
Love your videos mate..watching from gold coast aus
Very intersting,I've seen this done with Oysters but,never Lobsters.
Pewtty cool operation!
JO JO IN VT 🇺🇸💞
Such great performance andrew...well done.

Welcome to my humble beginnings. I miss home. It's been awhile since ive been back
Lobster is not just lobster, Maine lobstah trumps them all in taste, wait till winter time when they are hardshell for the best taste.
I just hope that they don’t over harvest the Lobsters. They should really regulate harvesting of these fruits of the sea.
Love Vietnam form neighborhood
I just had dinner....And now I'm hungry for Lobster!
Excellent content ❤️
Wishing you all the success mister.
Man i love your channel bro.
looks tasty, congrats on your first 1 million+ view video
super fascinating!
Love your videos bro
Okay i see you Andrew 👍
Look delicious 😋

What's more popular in Vietnam? Atlantic (Maine) lobsters or Spiny lobsters? And the price difference?
Love the sound track. Calm considered commentary juxtaposed with sawing, grinding axe. Works for me. 🙂
Better Then Over Fishing ❤❤
- 7:16 lobsters can eat old dead fish. They eat that in the wild along with live food. They will eat w.e they can, it will not kill them.
They can. They could also be eating the farmers poo poo too😅 did you see a toilet in the video?

Good job sir.
Love your work Andrew as an Aussie love ya work ❤
Cheers man. Appreciate it.
Wowww😮
What about next onto Lombok Island, Indonesia? We will be happy to accomodate you there!
How are these Lobsters compare to Boston's Lobsters in taste and price??
I have never tried a Boston lobster. One day, I'll let you know.
I don’t know about Boston lobster but if they get their lobster from Maine then Maine lobster would definitely beat Vietnam lobster in taste but not in prices. $46 per kilo for Maine lobster, $35 per kilo on this video ( he got the foreigners price). Usually is around $20-$27 per kilo in Vietnam.
You are showing the mature lobster being harvested, what happens before that?
awesome experience, foods in Asia
by $35 per kg you can buy lobsters in Paris or Milan's best supermarkets.
If you want to eat really cheap seafood, you have to go Oman.
But, frankly saying, I don't think that lobsters' price is so high in Vietnam. Otherwise it would be unaffordable for locals, but we see that they are actively buy in the street market

On my way back to Danang as we speak.
Had to subscribe to your channel after all the shenanigans Sonny put you through the years. $35 I could three lobsters in the States.
Who monitors the water quality?
so where to they use the toilet? Is there a communal public toilet in the area?
Love your videos Andrew, you definitely deserve more subscribers! Keep up the high quality content.
Nice video bro but that loudest and slowest engine u mentioned is older than you
quite possibly

I wish. Never even heard of a lobster Banh Mi
@@Andrew_Fraser you could be the one who goes down in culinary history as the person to introduce lobster rolls to Vietnam
Will you ship to USA live? Bryan 😊

In Melbourne, we call it lobster
Jesus…. Looks like my friend was not kidding. Seafood and good stuff in Vietnam cost a fortune🤯

Mantap
They seem to know how to grow lobsters. Round boats look like kids swimming pools.
@8:00 why does it take? could have added a little geography lessson/ maybe u do it later. anyway love the vid
How much is the lobster dish there? About 1.25 lb?
how are the being raised?
Andrew. You seem like a nice guy.
Hi there please how do I connect with lobster farmers?
And their baby Lobster are coming from Indonesia......smuggled from Indonesia to Vietnam......a reality
I've been to this area. I only pay 500k vnd per kilo hahaha. My buddy there owns lobster operation. They are absolutely delicious.
wow 😱
You haven't had real good lobster until you've had Maine Lobster
One day for sure
You mentioned that they put certain medicines in there feed
I wonder what the medicine is???
Some type of antibiotic. They are extensively used in the fish and shrimp farms here. It is an issue as i'm sure you can imagine there are many externalities.
