Koohii Story 1 | "Fish, autumn: Old man to his son: ""You are bullheaded if you think you can catch a bullhead fish in the middle of autumn. It's out of season!""." |
Koohii Story 2 | "Perhaps a bit of a misnomer. Bullhead is a river fish (カジカ). This kanji is most likely to refer to young Japanese yellowtail or amberjack. It is a fish of many names depending on age: fry (もじゃこ), young (鰍・いなだ or 魬・はまち), mature (鰤・ぶり). I suppose these kanji might crop up on a fish menu. STORY: Young Amberjack is not at its best in summer. Eat from autumn onwards (when it becomes more fatty). Also its tail is amber - the colour of autumn leaves." |
