Get to Know...Yellow Croaker

Yellow Croaker (Umbrina roncador), sometimes also referred to as Yellow Corvina, is a species of croaker found in the temperate waters of the western Pacific.  They are bottom feeders that remain in shallow waters, but avoid brackish conditions.  These fish are typically caught with offshore net cages or deep-water net cages.

In the 1970's and early 1980's, extreme overfishing of this species resulted in significant population declines.  The Yellow Croaker populations have since been replenished.

 Cal Fish Exports currently offers full truckloads of whole, frozen yellow croaker.  Shipment to any location in the United States, or export to another country, is possible.  Please contact sales@calfishexports.com for more information.
