Commercial Fishing
Along the coast of the southern U.S. state of Georgia, jellyfish are a valuable export, which end up on dining tables across Asia. The jellyfish are dried, preserved and packaged before being sold to a seafood distributor that ships them to Japan, China, and Thailand.
Jellyball (as they are known locally) fishing is Georgia’s third largest commercial fishery - after shrimp and crabs - but only five boats are permitted to catch them.
