Introduction

The Tripletail-(Dai), A weirdly wonderful eating fish is not known to many. One of the rare fish of the Arabian Sea, Tripletail is a highly sought-after fish at the Karachi Fish Harbor for its distinctive amazing taste and mouthfeel.

The name tripletail-(Dai) comes from the fact that the large and rounded soft dorsal fin and anal fin extend far back on the body and closely resemble the tail in color and shape so that the fish might appear to have three tails.

The most characteristic and certainly one of the most unusual behaviors exhibited by Tripletail fish is the propensity to lie just below the surface, floating with one side exposed, looking for all intents, dead.
