Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted November 3, 2020 Author #5864 Share Posted November 3, 2020 25 minutes ago, vada_9 said: Chau Doc River? Bingo! And the other river is the Bassac River. All part of the Mekong Delta, of course. I visited a fish farm which was actually on a boat. Underneath the boat was a huge cage to keep the fish in but the river flowed through it. There were hatches in the bottom of the boat to catch the fish. Very clever. However I don't think I'd want to eat any of that fish. I don't think the river was very clean.

A lot of the bassa fish sold here comes from these rivers. When I learned that, if we buy fish and chips, we buy other fish - not bassa.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind Nile perch. It is very similar to barrramundi and is often sold as barramundi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
