Koi harvest in Taiwan

During a recent business trip in Taiwan, I visited a koi farm in Taiwan. The owner contentedly invited me to participate in a koi harvest in their mud pond. I Must say this was the best thing happened to me in this business trip. Below are some pictures of the koi harvest event.

Damn San, that is a beautiful picture there with all the koi surrounding you. There also was a thread were I asked if there were any women breeders. Is one of them?

Nishi8,

Be careful what you said. I 'don't where you heard the rumer. But the fish in the koi farm where I visited are very healthy.

Cocoyboy,

No, I was told this koi farm was started by the grandfather of the Chung family. The grandfather is retired now. Mr. Chung and his family is now taken over the bisiness. The koi harvest was done by Mrs Chung, and her daughters. Mr. Chung was away for business the day I visited.

I agree with Koi-san. It's not a cool comment!

It could be pretty damaging for a business.
