"Gouzi, the big carp is about to drop its eggs." Qiubo frowned slightly when he saw the big carp in such a state, and continued: "No, let's let it go. It's so pitiful. Besides, didn't your grandfather tell us since we were young that we can't eat fish with eggs?"
Meng Fei glanced at Qiu Bo and nodded. He thought so too. If it was an ordinary carp, he would eat it. But now this was a big carp with its belly full of baby fish. He couldn't bear to do it. Moreover, in recent years, due to excessive fishing and illegal electric fishing, the fish and hunting resources in the Heilongjiang River Basin have been in a very bad situation.
"Okay, let's let it go. There are still a lot of crucian carp and willow roots in this net."
As he spoke, Meng Fei picked up the big carp in the net and gently put it into the water. The moment it entered the water, the big carp instantly came to life, twisting its body wildly and swimming towards the deep water.
(In the Heilongjiang River Basin, the fishing ban period is from early June to mid-July every year. Illegal fishing is prohibited because the fish are in the spawning period at this time. If a large number of fish are caught at this time, it will seriously damage the ecological environment, and eventually lead to a decrease in the number of fish species, or even extinction.
The once glorious Heilongjiang yellow croaker is now so rare due to overfishing. In fact, the meat of sturgeon is not the most valuable, but its roe, because yellow croaker roe is a very delicious delicacy. It is no less delicious than the caviar we eat, and the grains are larger and fuller, and the taste is more delicious.
It was even once sold for tens of thousands of yuan per kilogram, which can really be considered a sky-high priced delicacy.
When I was a child, I often saw crystal clear sturgeon eggs floating on the shore of the river. Each one was the size of a soybean. I didn’t think they were valuable at the time, but now I realize how precious they are.
I remember eating cold-mixed sturgeon roe at a relative's house near the river. The taste was absolutely amazing. Every roe burst in the mouth, without the fishy smell, but with a hint of sweetness.
Mix it with green pepper, coriander and green onion, and it becomes a delicious dish. I still can’t forget the taste. It’s a pity that I can’t eat it now even if I want to, hahahahaha. )
