Meanwhile, a dike in the town of Dasol broke near the salt farms and flooded the fisheries in the area. "'Pag bangus kasi, 'pag ganun na apaw lahat, nagsisilabasan lahat, lugi sa ngayon kasi sa tag-asin, November, magbubukas na rin kami ng asinan kaya kailangan 'yung mga dikeng 'yan mapilapil lahat," said Generosa Mariado, a resident.
