The Red Diamond Fish's scientific name in Chinese is bin diao, and like the Long-tailed Shore Bream and the Multi-rake Shore Bream, it belongs to the Clupeidae family; the three fish are very similar.
But in terms of size, the Long-tailed Shore Bream is the smallest.
The eleven-pound one that Chu Mingcheng caught is already considered a large individual within the Long-tailed Shore Bream.
However, bin diao and Multi-rake Shore Bream can grow to over one meter, especially the bin diao, which can reach up to one meter twenty-seven.
But the one he caught was clearly oversized, not only attracting the attention of nearby fishing enthusiasts but also rousing the boat captain who had just lain down to rest.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a big Red Diamond Fish, I've been out at sea for more than twenty years and this is the first time I've seen one!"
