I don't think it is...from the picture comparison...this my own fish I bought has red color on the body, herring doesn't.

illicit:
So it's a red herring then

kay29000:
Please someone with the correct name should tell me, thanks. By the way, I bought the two fish for 800 Naira...maybe that can help with the name. The woman says she normally sells for 500 each, but because I am her customer, she is selling for 400 each.

Romanoff:
Rotfl. Unless you thief am, you can't get salmon for that price.

kay29000:
Lol! I know. That's why I was surprised she called it that. Anyway, I have been looking for Salmon for a while now ...but most of these fish sellers seem not to know it. And I don't like buying fish from ShopRite. I guess I will go there today to find out if they have.

fati2001:

The person that told you herring is correct.

Locally called sawa.

The dried one is your bonga fish. It has a lot of tiny bones inside, which is the major downside to it.

It is not salmon.
