Some fishes cannot grow big because they stay small even when grown though most are caught when they are still fingerlings.
The Photo above is what call padas- - a kind of fish usually caught in school and cannot grow big.
I bought this from a morning vendor and it's good for sinigang. But its bony but the soup is good.
We also make bagguong or fish sauce from this.

@ilocosboy I will ask my mother and wife later, maybe we buy it but just another name, perhaps this is not as common here than in Ilocos.

hi, i like fish fry that too which comes in big pieces. These small fishes are tasty but difficult to eat.

my late mother would have cooked 'padas' in sinigang, and the broth taste so good.
