Hainan daily news, full media reporter chen bin
At the moment, during the spring season of the south china sea, a full-load fishing vessel is moving into fishing ports all over our province, where there is a lively scene of the sale and sale of both。
Fish is an important source of quality protein, with low sugar, low salt and low fat characteristics, and plays an important role in ensuring human food safety and nutritional balance。
Hainan is rich in marine and inland freshwater resources, not only in terms of the variety but also the taste of fish. Many people in hainan live three meals a day. What are the main fish species that swim to the table of the hainan people? Which fish are the "good minds" of the hainan people? Please follow hainan weekly。

Which fish are the "good minds" of the hainan people
It was said that the stomach of the hainan people was connected to the sea, with only one seafood farmers market in the middle. The market is full of “fish and fish” to see the daily preference of the hainan people for fish。
In recent days, a full-media journalist from hainan daily newspaper visited a number of farm-market aquatic stalls in haikou, where more than 20 species of seawater fish such as mackerel, horsefish, red line fish, mudhead fish, standing fish, military cao, papi, glycerine fish, carry fish, etc. Are common. There are also freshwater fish such as grassfish, carp, mackerel, mackerel, mackerel and tilapia。
Ms. Lin has been selling fish for nearly 20 years in the agricultural markets of yuzhou and haigu. She told journalists that local people in hainan prefer to eat seawater fish, which is the most sold on the farm market aquatic stalls. In her view, the population in the south of the sea prefers to eat fish that is not very different, and the most popular in the market are the goldfish, the barley fish, the fish carrying the fish, the mudfish, and the gillfish, among other things, “especially the goldfish, which is fresh and fresh, and which can be oiled or fried, often the first fish sold in the market”。
Ms. Lin said that ordinary consumers usually preferred to buy fish with higher value, such as goldfish, red line fish, papi fish, yellow belt fish, etc., at a price of between $15 and $30 per pound, thus becoming the “principal” of the table of the hainan people。
On the table of the hainan people there are also lightfish that can't be rounded. Lightfish are not actually a name for a fish, but a name for capture. If you have come to the sea-south fishing harbour, you will certainly notice that a number of fishing vessels have light bulbs on them. When the lightfish glamorous, the fishermen put light bulbs on the boat, and when they went out to fish at night, the lightfish gathered around the boat, where the small fish caught by the fishers were pictarily called the lightfish。
There are a number of species of lightfish, the most common of which in hainan is papi (known as blue roundfish). Such fish are small, but of fine meat and affordable prices。
Also common in the sea-south farmers' markets is the muddled fish, also known as the brown basket fish. This is a well-known “stealing” fish whose food is based on algae, whose internal organs are fermented with alienated odours, which are referred to in many places as “stealfish”. Despite their appetite for algae, the mudfish is fished by culpable corn grains in the seafish, and thus fishers in some parts of the south of the sea call it “witfish”。
Although the alias contains the word “smelt”, the smell of muddled fish is no worse than that of other fish. Large fish, such as mackerel, tend to be more meaty because of long-term rapid motion and thicker muscle fibres. The ferocious fish that likes to swim in the shore are fine, and their gravitational algae properties also make them taste different and suitable for a variety of cooking methods, such as cooking, oil, frying, etc。
Who is the sea and southfish
Sea and south possess a wealth of fishery resources, both seawater and freshwater fish。
Information indicates that more than 800 species have been recorded off the coast of hainan island. There are more than 3,500 rivers across the island, and freshwater fish stocks are abundant. The town halls of ming dynasty and the capital of the state of joan state contain records of the capture and consumption of freshwater fish from hainan island, such as carcasses, gills, grassfish, age fish (gills), scabfish, mackerel, eel, mackerel, sickle, eels, etc. According to the “specific chart of freshwater and estuarine fish in the sea”, published in 2021, there are more than 300 freshwater and estuary fish species on hainan island, of which more than 20 are unique and are a valuable aquatic resources of our country。
Who is the real king of the sea and south fish stocks so rich? The answer is undoubtedly the plasterfish. He mingwang, an expert in the technical system of the petro-fish industry in hainan province, described the high economic value of plasterfish as currently the largest species of fish farming in the sea and sea, with an annual production of 859 million tons, the second highest in the country. Wengchang, jonglei sea and wanning are the main breeding areas for plaster fish in hainan province, with production accounting for about 80 per cent of the total production in the province。
The species of plaster fish in the south of the sea are large and, due to relatively high prices, not much is sold in agricultural markets and more in seafood markets and hotels. When it comes to the scavenging fish, whether in appearance or taste, the ostrich is monolithic, with a wholesale price of up to $100-$140 per pound, which is called a “nobility in fish”。
According to my provincial aquaculture expert, east star treasure is called leopards, with small black or blue bouquets, which are like stars in the sky, mainly from the east sand islands, and are therefore named east star。
Hainan is the main production area of our east star. East stars are cultivated all over the coast of the island and are concentrated in indoor circular water farming in the wanning area, with high water quality requirements for seawater. East star's meat is white, and tastes are particularly beautiful, whether it's evaporated, punctured, burnt or boiled。
When it comes to high-end foods in the sea and the sea, the horsefish must not be absent. In hainan, mackerel is a gift to visiting relatives, especially during the spring season, when prices are many times higher, and more than 100 pounds are scarce。
The local maroonfish in hainan is most well known as the ponyfish in the sea near wenchang town. The main species of sea-named mackerel are constellation and zebras, of which constellation is the most productive, commonly known as “black fish” or “sortfish”。
The local sea-south mackerel tastes sweet and suitable for cooking, and therefore prices are relatively higher than those of other places. In recent years, there has been a pattern in the market of undesired traders impersonating hainan concorzas. To this end, my provincial authorities have also produced a manual dedicated to science, which helps consumers to quickly identify the characteristics of sea-named mackerel。
More and more new species of fish are swimming to the table
Although fish species are numerous, not all species are suitable for scalable farming. In recent years, thanks to continuous breakthroughs in breeding techniques, many precious fish have been able to grow on a scale and increasingly on the table。
The journalists learned from the fisheries economic development branch of the provincial agricultural rural department that “three fishes per shrimp” are currently a major category of sea-south aquaculture. Of these, “three fish” refers to plasterfish, goldfish, and tilapia. By focusing on the technical bottlenecks of the tropical seawater fish “crawling”, hainan has in recent years developed three new aquatic varieties of “mixed flames” (gold pearls), “morning sea 1” and “mixed gold tigers”. Of these, the golden mosaic, the mosaic, is the country's first gold mosaic and plaster species。
At present, hainan has a variety of new species of plagued fish, such as tracing (and pearls), guacamole, gold and dragon spots. In recent years, a breakthrough has also been made in artificial hybridism and nursery techniques。
Tropical seawater fish, such as my province's plasterfish and goldfish, are now expanding rapidly. Among them, the interlocking growth rate and the short farming cycle are high among the farmers, with annual production of around 60,000 tons. The inter-cropping of tigers is taking place throughout the province in coastal towns and counties, and the basic pattern of “nursing in western coastal municipalities and breeding in eastern coastal towns” is gradually emerging。
Goldfish are the main species of fish to be farmed in deep-water sea-nets in the sea, mainly in the mausoleum, sanya, changjiang and the high-altitude zone. Goldfish are fine and tasteful, suitable for many forms of cooking, such as steaming, red burning and frying, and are popular among consumers。
In addition to new species of common fish such as plasterfish and goldfish, many previously unusual fish are gradually breaking down the production technology bottlenecks and opening up larger markets. For example, in 2023, the red guacamole (commonly known as guacamole) was the first artificial reproduction breakthrough in the mainland china region in the south of the sea, and there is now a small supply market. Red nine thorns are popular with consumers because of their colours, their fine, sweet, protein-rich and unsaturated fatty acids, and suitable for evaporation。
High cylindrium is the single largest export species of seawater seedlings in hainan. In 2022, key technologies, such as the artificial reproduction of high-humphs and the breeding of saplings on a scale, achieved a breakthrough in the sea south, with the potential to become the main species of far-reaching seanet farming. High-heavy meats with small, fine meat and a moderate fat content are ideal foods for the production of raw fish and sushi, and are suitable for many forms of cooking, such as barbecue, frying and stew。
New varieties are being updated, new technological advances are being made to enrich the range structure of fish aquaculture in the southern tropical seawater and to allow more and more quality new species of fish to “swam” on the table of ordinary consumers。
