Pond fisheries are developed in many parts of the New Territories, such as at Yuen Long (left). The fry are about the size of a paper clip and a very fine
net must be used (above) when the time comes to move them to the fattening ponds. Since the fry abrase easily, they are handled as little as possible. They need a year to reach full growth (below) and can be caught any time simply by casting a net.
