In the afternoon of Oct. 24, he caught several small fishes and prepared to go back home. When he packed up his fishing pole, he saw there was a little bait on the hook. It was a pity to throw away the bait. Thus, he tied up his fishing pole to a tree at the bank and went away. Next morning, he came back to pack up his fishing pole. Suddenly, his line shook and he knew a fish was hooked. He tried to pull his line back but failed. Then he realized that it must be a big fish. Thus, he extended his line and then pulled it back again and again. An hour later, the fish was exhausted. Then, he netted the fish and found it was a big catfish. He controlled the catfish with four other men and measured it. It is around 1.4 meters long and weighs 22.5 kilograms. Later, he sold the catfish to a local restaurant and earned CNY 2700. According to the restaurant, one customer paid CNY 5000 for the catfish and planned to eat it with his friends. The boss of the restaurant refused and planned to feed the catfish in his restaurant. The big catfish brought the restaurant more customers. Some customers just came to see this big guy. The boss said that he wouldn’t let the catfish back to the river because some other people might net it. However, the local expert warns that it is difficult to raise the catfish in the restaurant. The winner is coming and the catfish will hibernate. Plus, the restaurant environment is noise. The catfish can’t get used to the new environment. If not taken good care of, it might die.

It is around 293 kilograms. Unfortunately, this big guy died and was eaten by the local fishermen. Tip: Those young moms who don't have abundant milk can drink catfish soup frequently to increase their milk.

From this snakehead family, there is one type named Haruan (channa striatus) where traditional doctors would recommend to those having internal bleeding or having caesarean birth.n Wan

I just know that crucian carp soup is good for the women who just give birth to babies. The soup helps them increase their milk.
