It is said that anglers love fishing but don't like to eat fish, which I think is a bit one-sided. There are many people who don't like to eat fish, but there are not a few who love to eat, and some of the people who don't like fish originally loved to eat, but they were tired of eating.
Another point, before discussing whether you like to eat fish, you have to look at what fish, such as mandarin fish, sea bass, eel, grouper, these fish with delicious meat and high nutritional value are naturally favored by most people, and there are some fish with bad taste and fishy smell that you definitely don't like to eat, and you don't want to give them for nothing.
For example, carp, don't worry, listen to me slowly, this article will take a look at the 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of us anglers.
Disclaimer: I haven't done authoritative statistics, and this ranking doesn't mean anything, so don't take it seriously, just have fun.
The 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of anglers, one: carp
The title says carp, and the beginning of the article also takes carp as an example, I guess some anglers have been anxious for a long time, what? Carp is unpalatable? You can't burn it! It's because your water quality is not good! Do you know that carp is one of the four famous fish in China?
Insert a sentence: China's four famous fish are Songjiang perch, Xingkai Lake perch, Songhua river mandarin fish and Yellow River carp.
There has always been a lot of controversy about carp. In terms of region, there are many people in the south who do not eat carp, and the opposite is true in the north. But it's not absolute, there are carp eaters in the south, for example, I think this fish is quite delicious.
There are many reasons not to eat carp, some are simply that carp meat is not delicious, more firewood, more fishy, just forget about firewood, say fishy, can only say that there is a problem with water quality, and if the water quality is not good, any fish is not delicious.
There are also some people who think that carp cannot be eaten, which is related to local customs, and of course some people say that carp is a hair product, which can cause old diseases or aggravate diseases, etc.
The 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of anglers, two: yellowtail catfish/bluetail fish
Yellowtail and bluetail are all the same color, both are mackerel, the habits are similar, and of course, the most important thing is that they are very difficult to eat.
It can be said that of the 5 kinds of fish written in this article, except for one that I have never eaten and dare not judge, the yellowtail and greentail are the most unpalatable, tied for the first place from the bottom.
Some people say that carp fishy, fishy but also fishy but yellow tail and green tail, carp including most of the other fishy is not fishy, mainly depends on the water quality, see whether the bottom of the silt is thick, humus is not much, everyone says carp fishy is actually talking about the smell of the earth, but as long as the water quality is good, there is no such taste.
But the fishiness of the yellow tail and the green tail is the fishiness of the fish itself, and it has nothing to do with the water quality, no matter how good the water quality is, the fishy smell is strong, I don't want to take this kind of fish home!
Some people say that carp meat firewood, no matter how firewood is, it can't compare to yellow tail and green tail, it's just like mud!
These two kinds of fish have one advantage, they are more enjoyable to catch, and they feel good in the pull, so just eat them.
The 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of anglers, three: silver carp
Silver carp should be very familiar to everyone, it is one of the four major fish in China, its appearance and habits are very similar to bighead carp, and the fishing method is similar.
Insert a sentence: The four major fish in China are herring, grass carp, silver carp, and bighead carp.
Silver carp and bighead carp look alike, have similar habits, and have similar fishing methods, but the value of the two fish and the attitude of anglers towards them can be said to be one heaven and one place.
For example, if you go fishing for silver carp, and finally hit a big guy, you are full of joy and effort to subdue it, and when you pull it to the side and find that it is actually a silver carp, I estimate that your enthusiasm is at least half reduced!
There are many ways to eat bighead carp, among which chopped pepper fish head and fish head tofu soup are the most famous and common, on the other hand, silver carp, is there any dish that is specially made of silver carp? Of course, it is not impossible for you to use silver carp to make chopped pepper fish head and fish head tofu, but that is just a makeshift and a little bit of a choice.
There are many bones and a fishy smell of silver carp, and there are rumors that this fish is a hair thing, in short, it is not very popular, at least compared to bighead carp, it is nothing, the only advantage is that it is cheaper.
Of course, for us to fish, the strength of silver carp is also quite large, and the feeling of fishing is okay.
The 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of anglers, four: Egyptian catfish
Catfish is a good thing, but except for Egyptian catfish, this thing has never had a good impression on fishermen, when it comes to Egyptian catfish, many people's first reaction is garbage fish!
As for eating, not to mention the taste of the meat, the first reaction of many fishing friends may be that this thing lives in a dirty and messy environment, and eats carrion, I really don't dare to eat it, I'm afraid of getting sick~
This is not unfounded, Egyptian catfish are indeed tenacious, they can survive in stinking ditches, sewage rivers and even septic tanks, and they do eat carrion, as well as some rotten things.
Therefore, the earthy smell of Egyptian catfish is indeed heavier than that of other fish, and it should be more likely to have an earthy smell unless the water quality is very good.
Moreover, Egyptian catfish is not picky and can eat, so the meat is also relatively fatty, and it is easy to get tired of eating it with conventional methods.
The 5 most unpalatable fish in the eyes of anglers, five: scavengers
Other fish are discussed whether they are good or not, and when it comes to scavengers, I am afraid that the first reaction in everyone's mind is: can this thing be eaten?
Our country has many delicacies and rich cooking techniques, so most of the ingredients can be put on the table, which is nothing more than how to eat. For example, many species in foreign countries are overflowing and helpless, and in China, they are eaten by artificial breeding, such as crayfish is a good example.
And the scavenger, as a kind of fish, can make the Chinese people think "can this thing be eaten", which is quite incredible in itself.
But it's not surprising if you think about it carefully, this thing is first of all ugly, black and not smooth, and it doesn't look round, and secondly, there is less meat, and it takes effort to cook and can't produce two taels of meat, which feels a bit of a waste of seasoning.
In addition, many anglers who have eaten it have reported that the fish smells fishy, and the meat is woody, so it has nothing to do with the word "delicious".
I haven't eaten it, so I don't dare to comment on the taste, but according to my years of writing experience, I have read so many people's evaluations of scavengers, but I can really feel the disgust of anglers for this kind of fish, nine out of ten anglers do not want to see it, and it is impossible to put it back when it is caught.
That's all for the article, except for the carp controversy in this article, there is no problem with other fish being on the list of "the most unpalatable fish", even if they don't rank in the top five, it's not a big problem to rank in the top ten.
I don't know what fishing friends think? If you want to rank the five most unpalatable fish, how will you rank? Welcome to leave a comment and express your opinion.
