Lean white flesh with a mild, slightly earthy flavor; notable for Y-shaped pin bones that require careful filleting. Excellent in fish cakes, fried, or baked with herbs.

Species Overview

Cá chẽm

The barramundi is a large, catadromous predator native to the Indo-West Pacific. It is a protandrous hermaphrodite, beginning life as male and transitioning to female after several years. Highly prized in both sport fishing and aquaculture.

Northern Pike

The northern pike is an apex predator of freshwater lakes and rivers across the Northern Hemisphere. With its elongated body, duck-bill snout, and razor-sharp teeth, it ambushes prey with explosive bursts of speed.
