Paradoxical changes occurred in the Russian fish market in 2026: salmon fell in price by almost a quarter, but sea bass rose in price by almost half. At the same time, you can still buy the cheapest fish for less than 200 rubles. In the first half of 2025, a kilogram of salmon carcass cost an average of 1,674 rubles, and in 2026 - already 1,259 rubles. The difference is 415 rubles, or almost 25% (below - NTech data). The trout also became cheaper: the average price dropped from 947 to 864 rubles per kg. But the sea fish became more expensive by 43%, the mackerel by 21%. But some types of fish still remain quite affordable, even though they have increased in price. The cheapest among those studied is blue brick. On average, a kilogram costs 148 rubles compared to 128 rubles a year earlier. Navaga can be bought for 192 rubles per kilogram, pollock costs an average of 223 rubles, and flounder costs 284 rubles.
