Baltic sprat is one the most important food fish in the Baltic Sea. The Baltic sprat is a small fish of 9 to 10 cm on average. The sprat has a bluish-green back and silvery sides and belly. An array of sharp scales runs along the edge of the belly to the anal fin. The fish is caught mostly by fishing trawlers. The Estonian spiced sprats have been well-known for their unconventional taste since the second half of the 18th century. Today sprats are mostly preserved (spiced sprats) or canned (canned sprats). A large part of the caught fish is marketed as frozen briquette.
