Spanish mackerel, also known as mackerel, is a marine economic fish, and often cooks at home. Fresh Spanish mackerel is thick, tender, elastic and has only one main thorn, which is delicious. The Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the offshore of Korea are its main distribution areas.

Its posture is smooth and beautiful, and it is spindle-shaped. Generally, it is 0.3 ~ 0.5 meters long, and the longest can reach 1 meter. Its back is blue-black, covered with blue spots, and its abdomen is silver-gray. It is used to floating close to the water, and its caudal fin and dorsal fin are usually exposed.

ecological habit

Warm pelagic fishes in the offshore mainly inhabit the shallow continental shelf area, and sometimes appear in steep slopes or lagoons, and even in estuary waters. Fierce in sex, quick in action, preying on small fish in groups.

I like to live in coastal areas and the waters where coastal water meets external seawater. Fierce in sex, strong in swimming and fond of clustering. The phenomenon of vertical movement between day and night is obvious. The weather is sunny, the tide is slow, the morning is faint or drizzling, and there is fog that often floats and jumps out of the water. When the water temperature is low, it often sinks to the middle and lower waters.
