Abstract

One man’s trash is another’s treasure. That pest that clogs the nets and reduces target catches could be the next big thing on the menu. Jellyfish is a highly regarded delicacy in Asia and although it is generally regarded as a nuisance to the Australian fishing industry, the retail value of processed products in Japan ranges from A$50 to A$70 a kilogram. Reduced fishing seasons and jellyfish catches in Asia have resulted in increased interest in harvesting the common blue jellyfish, Catostylus mosaicus, from Australian waters.
