After the full start of fishing in the East China Sea in mid-September, plum boy fish began to become a chinese food on the public's plate, but the real tasting season was in November, when the market peaked. In November this year, the peak plum boy production was not high, and its catch was only half of last year, and more than one or two plum boy fish rose to 200 to 220 yuan a catty, and two or two and above excellent products rose to 100 yuan a piece.
However, the diners did not eat less and did not eat because of the low production of plum children, and some diners even rushed to the Shengsi Sea and other two big fish with great interest to eat live and fresh.

Mr. Yomikura is just 40 years old this year and loves food. Wives who share the same hobbies also like to eat all kinds of food, and after the National Day, they have eaten fat hairy crabs, and it is the turn to eat plum boy fish.
Mei Tong has fishing in Shengsi, Taizhou, and Lüsi Fishery in Zhejiang, but my ancestral home is Zhoushan and I have a special affection for Zhoushan, so I prefer Shengsi. ”
Mr. Pu said:
Due to the epidemic this year's National Day, he did not take a long vacation to travel, but after the National Day, he chose Shengsi, which was rarely visited, because Shengsi had his and his wife's favorite delicacy, plum boy fish. ”
Before going to Shengsi, the two have made an appointment with the boat boss Master Zhou, they live in a seaside homestay, once they catch two or two or more plum children immediately sent over, they are ready to wait for the cooking of live plum children. Master Zhou told reporters that the probability of fishing for two or two or more plum children is about 1%, and the 6 high-quality plum children needed by Mr. Pu arrived about 1 hour after fishing, and the plum children sent to the shore were still alive and jumping.
Two or two or more plum children pick one, 6 600 yuan is actually not too expensive. ”
Master Zhou, who has been fishing in the East China Sea for more than 40 years, knows the fishing situation very well, and this year is one of the rare low-yielding plum children he has encountered.
Plum boy fish usually appear in flocks from late October onwards, and this year's production is very small, which is very rare. ”
Master Zhou told reporters through his mobile phone that the Shengsi fishermen who fished with him were also surprised by this.
Plum boy fish generally swim in estuarine bays, and fishermen mostly drive small fishing boats of more than 10 tons to catch with "undersea string" nets, usually 3 to 4 tons per boat. In early November of previous years, more than 30 or even more than 40 cases (about 30 kilograms per box) of plum boy fish could be caught at a time, but this year's catch was only half of last year's catch, and at least more than 10 boxes.

Shi Yunrong, an associate researcher at the East China Sea Fisheries Research Institute who has long been engaged in fishery ecology research, told reporters:
Shanghai citizens like the yellow fish family has a total of 7 kinds of fish, including large yellow croaker, small yellow fish, yellow girl fish (Shanghainese called yellow chicken), spiny plum fish (referred to as plum boy fish), etc., on the smallest head plum child fish, it is small eyes, wide head, thin tail, weight more than two or two very little, but on the taste, taste plum child fish is the most delicate, the most smooth. ”
It is reported that there are fishing in the South China Sea and the East Yellow Sea, and the yangtze River estuary is one of its main production areas. This year's plum baby fish production has decreased significantly compared with previous years, Shi Yunrong analyzed, the biggest possibility is that extreme weather affects the spawning habits of plum baby fish, feeding habits, and reduced production after years of large-scale fishing.
In fact, big plum children are not rare now, and two or more plum children have always been rare. Local fishermen in Zhoushan said that during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the local fishing of two or two or more plum children was mainly used to pay tribute to the imperial court. ”
In the past two days, the reporter visited some vegetable markets in the city and found that the vegetable markets located around the middle and high-end residential communities sell plum fish, and the vegetable markets around the ordinary residential communities are not supplied, mainly because the price of plum children is expensive, and ordinary wage earners usually eat less. Even if sold, most of the wet markets supply 0.3 to 0.4 small plum children, and a few vegetable markets such as Tai Gu sell a small amount of 0.6 to 0.7 two medium plum boy fish.
The stall owner of Ningbo Road Vegetable Market said:
More than one or two plum boy fish goods are small and expensive, and the loss will be very large if they cannot be sold, so most stalls do not enter. ”
The reporter further learned that the price of small and medium-sized plum child fish has also risen this year, an increase of about 20%, 0.3 to 0.4 two small plum child retail 20 to 24 yuan a catty, last year's retail 16 to 18 yuan a catty; 0.6 to 0.9 two plum child retail 80 to 110 yuan a catty, last year's retail 60 to 80 yuan a catty. More than one or two big plum children rose from 150 to 180 yuan a catty last year to 200 to 220 yuan a catty.
