The sun had not even risen when my tour guide rolled up to the hotel entrance in a war-era U.S. military jeep, a camouflaged monster roaring with noxious fumes to crack the silence of H\u1ed9i An city\u2019s early morning. After brief introductions in the faint gleam of the jeep\u2019s headlights, I joined the guide and his driver on a bumpy and adventurous ride to the fishing village at the edge of town, feeling strangely ironic as a Vietnamese American passenger in an American military jeep. Never mind that I spoke Vietnamese\u2014I was the only person who booked the tour that day, and riding along in the jeep certainly made me stand out like a deer in the headlights. I could\u2019ve just screamed,\u00a0I\u2019m an American tourist!\u00a0<\/i>to anyone who cared to listen.<\/p>\n

When we arrived half an hour later at the fishing village, I did not expect what I saw. There were hundreds of colorful boats docked on the harbor, offloading plastic buckets of fish in all sizes, shapes, and colors. Surrounding the docks were mostly women sitting on little stools, selling the fresh catch to local customers, who were just ambling in from nearby towns for their morning groceries. \u201cWe are already late,\u201d my guide said, \u201cbecause many of the boats came with their fish around 4 a.m. It is already almost 6 a.m.\u201d I couldn\u2019t imagine the space being any more hectic than it was already. People were shoving past me left and right, haggling for lower prices on their sardines and anchovies. An older woman in a conical hat called out, \u201cYoung lady, buy some stingray to start my sales today!\u201d My tour guide trailed ahead, and I followed him, declining the stingray.<\/p>\n

My name is Ann Ngoc Tran, and I am a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of American Studies & Ethnicity, working under the direction of Dr. Viet Thanh Nguyen. The motivation behind my peculiar jeep ride to the fishing village in H\u1ed9i An, a small city in Quang Nam province a mere thirty minutes from \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng, was to explore central Vietnamese fishing customs and traditions that have been embedded in the local culture for the past century. My research seeks to understand how these practices have been fundamental not just to Vietnamese social life, but also vital to survival during war, migration, and (re)settlement in the United States, where many refugees returned to their former occupations as fisherpeople and shrimpers in the Gulf South in the 1980s and 1990s.<\/p>\n

On the coasts of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, and Florida, thousands of Vietnamese and other Southeast Asian refugees revived their trade in the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, engaging in fellowship with each other and violent altercations with white fishermen who resented their \u201cinvasion.\u201d Coming from Texas myself, I knew of these stories even as they have only recently become more mainstream\u2014how white locals and the KKK burned Vietnamese-owned boats to valiantly tout their white supremacy, then rallying for the eviction of \u201cViet Cong\u201d from their turf after a deadly gunfight broke out in Seadrift, Texas between a white fisherman and a Vietnamese refugee. My project began with an interest in these fisher folx\u2019s stories and their previous lives, which has led me to various towns on the Gulf Coast, and eventually to Vi\u1ec7t Nam.<\/p>\n

I came to Vi\u1ec7t Nam partly to trace the histories of native fishing villages and Vietnamese folk knowledge about boat-making, fishing, shrimping, and other uses of both fresh- and saltwater. Water is an important part of life for the Vietnamese people, who depend on the fertile river deltas for their rice production and the coasts for their staple fish sauce and seafood supply. Mostly men work on the boats, while women sell the catch. There are several different types of vessels that are used for fishing\u2014the th\u00fang tre (circular bamboo boat used mostly for shallow-water fishing or squid-fishing), the thuy\u1ec1n (a flat-bottomed wooden sampan, often used for shallow-water river fishing or for selling merchandise), and the t\u00e0u \u0111\u00e1nh c\u00e1 (the larger, more equipped boats for deep-ocean fishing and shrimping). Most fishing boats in central and southern Vi\u1ec7t Nam are still constructed from wood, whereas those in the United States are built from more durable fiberglass. Traditionally, bamboo boats, also called oracles, were made by bending shredded bamboo bark into a rounded shape, secured in place with layers of cow dung to prevent water infiltration. If made properly, the oracles last years and can withstand forceful winds and waves at sea. Fishermen often tote these bamboo boats along on their fishing vessels, dropping them into the water to find squid late at night. For those who go out to the deep ocean for larger catches like barracudas, mackerels, and tuna, a typical journey can take a week or less during the high season, and up to two weeks in the low season.<\/p>\n

The fishing industry is a key national economic sector, bringing in over 8 billion dollars in capital for Vi\u1ec7t Nam per year, which equates to nearly 4-5 percent of the country\u2019s GDP according to the\u00a0Vietnam Association of Sea Exporters and Producers<\/a>. As a result, the Vietnamese government encourages fishermen to stay out at sea by subsidizing engine fuel, which has led to the quadrupling of fishing vessels from\u00a02000 to 2020<\/a>, concentrated primarily in Central Vi\u1ec7t Nam and the Mekong Delta. In recent years, however, the fishing stock in the waters off the coasts of Vi\u1ec7t Nam has sharply declined due to overfishing near the shore without providing proper time for marine life to regenerate and the use of destructive fishing methods that include explosives, poison, and uncontrolled net fishing.<\/p>\n

Now, many fishermen spend up to a month or longer at sea, some crossing in desperation into the disputed Paracel Islands, which has caused\u00a0major territorial issues with China and Taiwan<\/a>. Although the islands were originally under Vi\u1ec7t Nam\u2019s authority, China occupied the archipelago in 1974 when its troops seized a South Vietnamese garrison. A politically and ecologically contentious issue, fishing in Vi\u1ec7t Nam, particularly in the central regions where the Paracel archipelago is closely situated, has garnered mass media and diplomatic attention.<\/p>\n

In fact, there is a museum called Nh\u00e0 Tr\u01b0ng B\u00e0y Ho\u00e0ng Sa in \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng dedicated to honoring the Vietnamese tradition and claim to the islands, citing centuries of seafaring and exploration in the waters of the archipelago. I visited this museum on a sunny afternoon, surprised to find both nationalistic proclamations of Vi\u1ec7t Nam\u2019s sovereignty over Ho\u00e0ng Sa (the Paracel Islands) and a rich history of fishing and seafood production documented in images and archival documents. What to make of these sources? Stay tuned for the dissertation!<\/p>\n

I also came to Vi\u1ec7t Nam for another history\u2014my late grandfather was a fisherman in Thanh Kh\u00ea, \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng, the first person in his village to own a fishing boat in the early 1950s. He started working as a deckhand when he was a young preteen, saving money slowly until he could afford his own boat in his twenties. He worked in the fishing trade through tumultuous periods in Vi\u1ec7t Nam\u2019s history\u2014French colonial rule, American occupation and war, Sino-Vietnamese and Cambodian conflicts\u2014and retired in his seventies. In March 1975, when the American War was close to its end, he boarded the entire Tr\u1ea7n family onto his boat, ready to take off for a refugee camp off the coast of Hong Kong. But being the family man that he was, he couldn\u2019t stand to leave his first son, who was still fighting in the south near Saigon, trying to make his way back home. By the time my uncle did, the North Vietnamese army had already entered \u0110\u00e0 N\u1eb5ng, putting an end to all escapades. If my paternal family had left then, perhaps I would not be here, writing this post today. But if they had, perhaps there\u2019d be a boat somewhere off the coast of Texas, engraved with my grandfather\u2019s name.<\/p>\n
