The fishing ban in Istanbul ended on April 15, marking the start of the fishing season. Fishermen reported catching large quantities of fish, including red mullet, sardines, horse mackerel, and mullet. The prices of these fish have subsequently dropped in the market. In Trabzon, horse mackerel was sold for 20-25 liras per kilogram and sold out quickly. In the Aegean Sea, the season started strongly with an abundance of sardines and anchovies, selling for an average of 30-35 liras. However, the start of the fishing season in the Mediterranean was weak, with only 60 types of fish caught. The prices have not yet stabilized.
