Talk:European seabass

Italian name is branzino?

I changed "its italian name" to "one of its italian names". I believe a more common name in Italian is "spigola". This is not unusual; common names of fishes in the Mediterranean (and elsewhere?) change as you go up and down the coast.

Debate has been unrelenting in Britain in recent years as to the beginning of the word "seabass".

Loup de mer

I killed the fish; "Loup de mer" are called two of these Anarhichadidae.--Mideal (talk) 13:01, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

##Objections to a addition?##

Has any one got any objection to me adding a section on common fishing methods used for the Sea Bass, and also an elaboration on it's predatory behaviour? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.42.233.247 (talk) 20:22, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Etymology in British Isles and Main Title

Hi, All. I have edited the Etymology section to give a text more grounded in the long-term name of simply bass - the existing text seemed to be spinning in favour of the recent catering and TV driven name, seabass. More importantly, I move that the title of this article be changed back to European Bass from the current European Seabass: it is sufficient that the new trend in naming be referenced within the context of the established long-term name and the main search term needs to be "European bass".

Better main picture

Will somebody please find a better main picture for this article. The European bass is silver and has an impressive spiney dorsal fin - the current photo shows neither ie. blue with no dorsal fin visible - actually quite poor for identification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chanelek (talk • contribs) 20:41, 8 June 2017 (UTC)

What is it like to eat?

What is the appearance of the 'meat'? How does it taste? Is it similar to another fish readers may be more familiar with? Ralph Corderoy (talk) 12:19, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
