What's the name of the bearded fish?

A fish with a beard is called a catfish.

Catfish, also known as bearded fish, is characterized by no scales, sticky and slippery body surface, flat head, wide mouth and four beards on the upper and lower jaws. Widely distributed, mainly in the Yangtze River and Pearl River basins, the best edible season is from mid-spring to mid-summer. Catfish is a carnivorous fish with tender meat, delicious taste, rich in protein and fat, and rich in nutrition, especially suitable for people with weak constitution and malnutrition.

Catfish is a fierce bottom fish. Afraid of light, I like to live in crevices, deep pits, earth caves or caves at the bottom of tree roots, and slow flowing water near rivers. In the still water of reservoirs, ponds, lakes and weirs, most of them lie at the dark bottom or under pieces of water hyacinths, peanuts and water hyacinths.

Fishing method

Catfish are afraid of light and like to hide in caves. In midsummer and early autumn, the river water temperature rises, so catfish can only find shade to escape the heat; In spring, summer and autumn, catfish love to play outside the cave for food and return to the cave during the day. Sometimes, when the water is cloudy or rainy, catfish occasionally come out during the day. Therefore, if catfish fishing is the main thing, night fishing should be the main thing.
