In another video, the lady showed the one she had dried and packaged for delivery to her customers.

She said she does not go to sea herself. She stated:

“They catch it from the sea, and when they come back, they stop at the seaside. There is a way they test to see if there is crayfish at a particular place or not. They will throw the net after they have tested the area. The crayfish that come out, they pour them into their boat.”
