This fish is most abundant at the brackish and freshwater junction, and is not large and hard-boned. To catch it, you don't have to choose bait, anyway, a large group of you can fish. Whether steamed, fried, or made, the meat is delicious, and the small live fish costs thirty or forty yuan a pound, and I like to use it to cook soup.

When traveling to the beach, bring the most basic simple fishing tackle, take time to play at the beach, and taste the taste of the sea fishing "singing woman", it is really fun. Whether it is morning or evening, there are always some anglers fishing by the sea. There are more than a dozen people in the long run, and three or four people in the few.
The fish caught is not as delicate as freshwater fish, eating is very fierce, it can be said to be extremely vicious, as long as the bait is not larger than its mouth, it can eat it in one bite. So instead of tying a buoy on the floating line, you should add a piece of lead to increase the weight of the fish hook so as not to be hit by the waves. The release point of the fish hook is still very exquisite, generally between the stone crevices of the reef, and the water is not very shallow, if the stone crevices can be extended to a large one, it is the best, can hide the fish (this must have a certain experience).
Bait can be used for a variety of meat or insect bait, such as shellfish in the water, fish, earthworms in the soil, cattle and sheep on land, as long as it is meat, of course, the meat is the best. If the skin of the bait is a little better, this can ensure that one bait and more fishing. Sand silkworms are one of the most popular of many baits. Its insect body is thick and flat, tough enough and heavy enough, easy to hook, and not easy to decay, most suitable for fishing, and the easiest to find. After finding the singing woman in the crevice of the stone, she brought the bait to its mouth and gently shook it, because the fish must have a hiding place, but it is not hidden everywhere. It has one advantage: as long as there is food, regardless of three or seven twenty-one, it will eat it when it is seen, and it wants to escape immediately. So you put it right, and it won't be long before the fish is hooked.
Fishing "singing po" can use a variety of fishing gear, it can be said that the fishing method and fishing tackle for freshwater fish can be used to catch singing po. Hand rods, sea rods, and dual-purpose rods can all be used, and Taiwan's suspension fishing method, traditional fishing method, string hook, and bomb hook can all be used. I once saw a fisherman sitting on the bow of a boat fishing. His fishing tackle was a nylon line, tied to the top with a large nut, and then tied two 100 mm long hooks with brain lines, and when fishing, he lay down on the bow of the boat, pulling the fishing line in his hand, waiting for the fish to come to the bait.
It is said that there are fishing enthusiasts who can catch from morning to evening, and this fish will make a rabbit-like sound, and a person who fishes at night hears it for the first time. However, when catching this fish, pay special attention to the spines on the dorsal fin, if you are not carefully pricked, the pain is like a needle. After going home, it is best to soak it with hot water and a little salt, it will not feel so painful. Anglers who like to fish in the sea are best equipped with hemostatic tongs, towels, and fish controllers. In addition to this, glasses are also a must, every morning when fishing, without glasses, the harsh sunlight may make you tear up.
