The sun is setting in the west, the multicolored light is pouring on the sea, and the sea is as quiet as a mirror. I crouched quietly on the seashore, breathing with the sea breeze, using the rod to guess the fish's heartbeat. Compared with overland fishing, sea fishing is extremely exciting, and the types of fish caught are complex. Statistically, there are 26,000 species of fish in the world, two-thirds of the number of marine fingerlings, and about 9,000 freshwater species. The sea is the treasure house of mankind and the common wealth of all mankind.
There is a kind of fish in the ocean, commonly known as mud fish, also known as stinky belly fish, basket fish, etc., which is a marine fish species. Mud raptors live in shallow waters and feed on seaweed or plankton, hence the title of marine scavenger. Looking at the taste and nutritional value alone, the mud fish does not lose the blue fish and grass carp, which is an excellent choice for nourishing the body.

Mud raptor is a common marine species, with a body size of about 20-40 cm. People love and hate the mud raptor, love is the activity area in the shallow water area, easy to catch, and rich in nutritional value, economical; hate is the mud raptor due to long-term consumption of algae, will emit a smell, a little attention to the eating experience will decline. In the process of eating and processing mudded fish, it is necessary to pay attention to the stingers on the body to avoid being stabbed, and at the same time to deal with the odor in the fish body.
People who regularly eat mud fish should have this experience: the fish is delicious and the processing process is complicated. In the early years, mud fish could not be served at large banquets, especially important ceremonies such as wedding banquets, similar to the nature of dog meat. With the change of consumption concept, mud fish slowly began to be accepted by larger consumer groups, and the custom of not going to the big table has changed.
Mud fierce fish
Once the mud fish were inferior fish, low-end fish, low-priced fish are not wanted. With the passage of time, the price of mud rapture fish has increased, and the price of mud raptor fish on the market has reached a high price of about 60 yuan. There are two reasons for the increase in the price of mud raptor: first, the number of consumers who like to eat mud raptor has increased, a few years earlier, transportation is inconvenient, mainly in the southern region, the cold chain appears, and the consumer population of mud raptor expands rapidly; the second is that the mud rapier has a delicious taste, rich nutritional value, and can meet consumer demand. Simply put: the meat of the mud fish is tender, nutritious, and the supply and demand relationship has changed.
In addition, the price growth of mud raptor fish is driven by China's economic development, the material living standard is improved, and people's demand for fish products has increased. Although both domestic and international have been affected by the epidemic, and seafood-related industries have been affected, after the epidemic is over, mud fish will usher in a new peak consumption season.
In different parts of China, the value of mud raptors is different, and the value will be affected by changes in transportation and breeding costs, but it is certain that the value of mud raptors continues to rise. The domestic mud raptor culture technology is not yet mature, the input cost in the breeding process is large, and the loss is large, so it is not recommended to cultivate mud rapunciation on a large scale. To some extent, the value of mud fish is artificially high, and there are two main reasons: first, mud fish is a common fish species, strong survival and reproduction ability, and the situation of tight supply and demand relationship is not prominent; second, the number of domestic fish species is large, and the consumer's selectivity is large.
Mud fish is delicious, but expensive is really expensive. In our country, whenever the taste of a certain commodity is recognized, it is inevitable that the high price is difficult to buy. Of course, the price of mud fish will not run high for a long time, just like the price of sugar oranges and black Brins will not be evergreen. One day, people will realize that the essence of fish is to eat meat, the nutritional value is actually not much different, and the sales price of mud fish is much higher than the actual value.
