Wen/Farmer is also crazy
Labor Day is coming, where are you going to go? During this period, the south began to plant seedlings, and in the paddy field will occasionally see loach, yellow eel, especially at night, if you go to the paddy field with a flashlight to catch loach and yellow eel, the general fish will not disappoint. For some friends who like wild fishing, during The May Day Labor Day, the weather is not cold or hot, which is a good time for wild fishing. In the small river in the countryside, there is a kind of fish that looks like a loach, but it has barbs on its back, and it often comes to the hook when fishing in the wild, which makes many fishing friends very troubled. It is estimated that the big guys have already guessed that it is a loach. Is there anything else in your hometown?
Loach is the Chinese loach, also known as knife loach, steel loach, knife loach and so on. This is a typical freshwater fish, some people often confuse it with loach, in fact, loach and loach only look very similar in appearance, their difference is still relatively large. For example, loach is generally in the mud, while loach is a small fish that loves to be clean, they often live in rivers and lakes, and they are only found in an environment with relatively clean water quality. This fish rarely comes out during the day, generally lurking in the sand, leaving only the nose and mouth outside, or hiding in the dark, waiting until it is dark, it will come out to feed. It is a more gluttonous fish, and often comes to the hook when fishing.
In the past, few people in the countryside ate loach, often fishing, or catching it when fishing, they were directly thrown away, or trampled to death and picked up and fed to ducks. Few people touch the gill directly with their hands, because the gill has a row of very small but sharp barbs on its back, and if you grab it with your hand, you will be cut if you are not careful, or scratch out a hole. When I was a child, I went to the small river to catch fish, and often caught loach. However, at that time, adults said that this fish could not be eaten, so they brought it back to feed the ducks, and when they caught the loach, they were scratched many times by it, and they are still impressed by it.
Now think about it, in the past, rural people did not eat loach, which may be related to its appearance, this fish looks a little similar to loach, but it is larger, and the mouth is sharp and thin, and a bit like a snake. In the past, rural people did not eat snakes. Coupled with the fact that there are sharp barbs on the back of the gill, it is easy to hurt people. It is estimated that these reasons are these reasons, so in the past rural people did not have a good feeling for it, thinking that the loach could not be eaten, and they did not like to eat it when caught. However, the number of loach is now much less than it is, and the price in the market is getting higher and higher, and in some places, wild loach can even sell for nearly 100 yuan a catty. The reason is that loach is very nutritious, which is rich in nutrients, and the taste of eating is also very good. It is said that loach is ginseng in the water, and loach has a higher nutritional value and better taste than loach!
In recent years, due to a certain degree of pollution in some rivers and lakes, and the loach is very clean, the requirements for the growth environment are relatively high fish, so the number of wild loach is also getting smaller and smaller. I think that in the beginning, when the loach caught in the countryside was thrown away, or chopped up and fed to the ducks, basically few people were willing to eat. Now the price of loach has doubled dozens of times, and it is estimated that some people's intestines are remorseful. And now even if you have money, you may not be able to eat this wild game, and wild loach is rarely seen for sale in rural markets. Once I saw someone selling, it actually cost 80 yuan a pound, which is many times more expensive than pork. In your hometown, is there still loach?
