Because of the sultry weather, there are many fish in the river, and many people will run to the river to fish and fish.
Because most of the fish in the river are wild and delicious, they are also the favorite of foodies.
Now that conditions are good, it is no longer seasonal for people to eat fish, because many fish are farmed. Although farmed fish are very fat, they are not as delicious as wild fish. There are still many people who like wild fish.
But now there are few wild fish. Let's review these 12 kinds of common fish as children.
First, loach
When we were young, we often saw loaches and often went down to the ditch to catch them. Because we can't live without our hands, we basically play with our parents to catch loach.
And there were many children's songs that sang loach at that time.
Loach often comes out to catch loach at night. We often catch loach with flashlights and iron tongs at night.
Loach is usually in the mud. If there is more rain, the river will rise and the loach will gush out.
Block the river mouth with a dustpan and drive the loach over, and it can be done.
Misgurnus anguillicaudatus is delicious and nutritious, and is known as "ginseng in water".
Second, flower fish
Flower fish is also unique to China. Many people used to raise this kind of fish in rice fields and eat some pests, killing two birds with one stone.
In fact, its predecessor is carp, which evolved through a long process.
Flower fish is not very big, one is about two, but the meat is delicious. Although it is a close relative of carp, it has no muddy smell of carp and few fishbones. Adults and children especially like it.
Three, _ _ fish
_ _ Fish is the most common fish 20 years ago, which is especially easy to catch. Put a fish basket in the rising estuary. After a while, the most fish in the fish basket is _ _ fish. If you are good, you can catch a few kilograms at a time.
Many people don't like the taste of _ _ fish, because it is a bit bitter, but in fact _ _ fish's internal organs have been removed and washed, and the taste is still ok.
_ _ Fish is very beautiful in appearance and rich in colors.
Now it has become an ornamental fish and is exported to Europe and the United States. It is called "China Rainbow".
Four, wheat ear fish
Maisui fish is a very small fish, which looks a bit like grass fry.
When I was a child, I was always stupid and confused.
In fact, ears of wheat and grass carp are two completely different fish, but many fishing enthusiasts don't like ears of wheat very much.
Maybe it's because it's small
Maisui fish was often seen in rivers and ponds at that time, especially when the water level rose in summer, but its anti-oxygen ability was poor and it would die soon after leaving the water.
But there are still many people who like it, because the wheat-ear fish is fried, which tastes particularly fragrant and even the fish bones are crisp.
Five, mosquito fish
Mosquito-eating fish is also called "pot-bellied fish" among the people. It is not a native fish, but a kind of fish introduced from abroad in China, because the main food of this fish is mosquito larvae, and it eats a lot, and it can eat thousands of dragonflies a day.
A veritable mosquito catcher.
However, although it preys on octopus, it also eats the eggs of other fish, so it will bring some harm, and it has strong reproductive ability and adaptability to the environment. In recent years, there have been fewer other wild fish, but they are beginning to flood.
Six, river shrimp
Who didn't like river shrimp when he was a child? It is nutritious and delicious.
Fried leeks are delicious. As long as there is this dish at home, two or three bowls of rice can definitely be eaten.
Endless shrimp can be dried and eaten slowly.
Wild river shrimps have high requirements on water quality and are not turbid to eat. However, due to water pollution, there are fewer and fewer river shrimps now, and the price of river shrimps that can be seen in the market is also amazing, and some places even sell them for several hundred yuan a catty.
Although cultured river shrimp appeared late, it tastes different from wild shrimp.
Seven, peach blossom fish
Peach blossom fish is also called horse-billed fish, so it is named because its mouth is very similar to "horse's mouth".
Peach Blossom Fish is called Peach Blossom Fish because the abdomen of male fish will have red and blue patterns, which are especially like blooming peach blossoms when swimming in the water.
This kind of fish is rare now, because they have very high requirements for water quality, and the water quality is almost difficult to survive. They can only be seen in very clean streams or tributaries of rivers.
It is not very big, but it is the best fish in the river. Whether it is steamed or fried, it tastes really delicious.
Eight, China fighting fish.
As the name implies, this kind of fish is particularly aggressive and loves to fight.
Many rural boys should be impressed. Boys especially like to catch them and put them in the aquarium of ornamental fish to play with. This kind of fish has strong vitality and is not easy to die when it is fished out.
China betta is unique to China. In the rainy season, it is common in stinking ditches and grass with water, but few people eat it. It may taste bad. They are all eaten by ducks and cats raised at home after fishing.
Nine, saury loach fish
Knife loach fish is a bit like loach, with a pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, but it is bigger than loach and less round.
Ugly, but annoying. It has a row of barbs on its back. When you catch it, you will accidentally scratch your hand, so many people call it "unlucky fish".
The nutritional value of saury is very high, and it is rare now, and its meat quality is very tender and smooth.
However, because it usually takes 2-3 years to mature, it is impossible to form a breeding scale.
Only wild, so the market price is as high as 100 yuan a catty, which is still in short supply.
Bowfish
Zhanggong fish has scales, but the scales are very small, so it feels smooth. Because Zhanggong fish is green and has many big spots on its body, it is also called "Seven-Star Fish".
Zhanggong fish is a good tonic, which is usually used to make soup for people who have had a serious illness and just finished surgery.
Because of its high requirements for water quality, there are really few wild ones now.
Most of the octopus we saw were farmed.
XI。 Wild crucian carp
There are normal crucian carp on the market, but few are wild. Generally, many fishing enthusiasts often catch it. Wild crucian carp is not as big as artificial culture, with many fishbones, but it tastes delicious. Used for soup, it is a good product for nourishing the body.
Nowadays, wild crucian carp is rare. Twenty years ago, there were crucian carp in ditches and grass with water on the roadside. Now they are basically farmed and large, but the boiled soup is really not wild and delicious.
There are also many people who regard immature cultured crucian carp as wild crucian carp.
Twelve, raw fish
Raw fish are actually black fish. It looks a little fierce, with many big stripes on it, which is a bit like ancient copper wire, so some places are also called "wealth fish".
It is a carnivorous fish with teeth, and it is very fierce.
Boiled raw fish soup is very nourishing and is generally given to pregnant women who have recovered from a serious illness. Its meat is a little old, but the soup is delicious and nourishing.
There are not many wild ones now. Because it is fierce, it even eats its own fish eggs and begins to hunt a little more. Now most of them are farmed artificially.
Summary:
The above 12 kinds of wild fish are rare now, which also reflects our environmental changes from the side.
We should also protect the environment to maintain a good ecological balance and prevent the extinction of these wild fish.
