INDIAN MACKEREL

Indian mackerel has an elongated, slightly compressed body, capable of fast swimming and long-distance migration. In Vietnam, its captured size ranges from 72 – 295 mm, with an average of 209 mm, varying by region:

- Vung Tau: 72 – 295 mm

- Con Dao: 62 – 260 mm

- Phan Thiet: 135 – 295 mm

This species forms large schools and exhibits vertical migration between day and night, affecting catch rates:

- Bottom trawling: Peak yield at dawn and midday.

- Midwater trawling: Most effective between 8 PM – 12 AM.

Indian mackerel grows rapidly in its first year (averaging 113 mm), then slows down. The spawning season lasts from March to December, peaking in March – June and September – October.
