In an astonishing catch, fishermen from the Kharochan tehsil of Thatta district have reeled a rare Suwa fish from the depths of the open sea near Keti Bandar.
According to Kamal Shah, the spokesperson of the Coastal Media Center Ibrahim Hydari, the catch was made by Hanif Katiyar, a seasoned fisherman hailing from Kharo Chan.
The Suwa fish, known for its rarity and exceptional value, was found ensnared in the nets of Katiyar's boat, marking a momentous achievement in the local fishing industry.
"The significance of this catch cannot be overstated," remarked Shah. "These Suwa fish are highly sought after for their rarity and exquisite taste, commanding prices that can fetch enormous sums in the market."
Indeed, the Suwa fish holds a revered status among fishermen and seafood enthusiasts alike, with its scarcity only adding to its allure. However, the lucrative nature of this catch often leads to clandestine dealings, as some fishermen opt to keep their hauls a closely guarded secret to avoid potential conflicts or theft.
"It's not uncommon for fishermen to exercise caution when it comes to the sale of Suwa fish," Shah explained. "The fear of being targeted by unscrupulous individuals who seek to exploit the value of these rare specimens is a legitimate concern."
Despite the challenges posed by the clandestine nature of the trade, the discovery of such a bountiful haul serves as a testament to the resilience and skill of Thatta's fishing community.
