Chapter 195: It's a big fish, it's a big fish

 When the tide moves, you can catch the fish, but when the tide is flat, you can catch the fish.

 The north wind is level 3 or 4, which is the golden time for fishing.

 The fishing boat was sailing on the blue sea. Because it was the middle of the month, the current was particularly strong.

Li Duo is more professional in fish farming, but he is really a layman in fishing. He only knows where there are fish, and he will set the hook there.

 The bottom fish will hit the bottom.

 For middle-level fish, just release them for drift fishing. If floating fishing is not possible, you can also do it.

 As for cover current fishing and the like.

Li Duoyu is still confused.

However, in this era, there are really many fishing resources in the open sea. As long as the quality of the fishing rod is excellent, it doesn’t really require any special skills.

 There are so many fish in my "pond".

 Does fishing still require technical skills?

The fishing boat left for three hours. The older Zhang Jinsha came to such a distant sea for the first time. Looking at the vast sea, he felt a little nervous.

The relatively young Shi Shi was full of curiosity about the sea. He stared at the looming mountains in the south and asked, "Duoyu, is that a mountain in the Overseas Province?"

Li Duoyu glanced in the direction pointed by the stone, and he really saw a hint of indigo-colored mountains.

Last time, because the visibility was not particularly high, we didn’t see the Namo Mountains. But today, the visibility was very good and we could see quite clearly.

 At a place like the center line, as long as the visibility is good, it is really easy to see the mountains in the opposite province.

 “It should be so, I haven’t been there.”

Shitou said excitedly: "Is that mountain Alishan?"

 After Shitou finished speaking, he started singing awkwardly on the spot.

 “The mountains are green and the streams are blue.

 The girls from Alishan are as beautiful as water,

 The young man from Alishan is as strong as a mountain. "

Li Duoyu smiled awkwardly. People on Dandan Island only know Alishan and Sun Moon Lake every time they mention overseas provinces.

In addition, after a singer sang the song "Girl from Alishan" during the Spring Festival Gala last year and became popular, many cassettes now have this song, and even chubby Li Haoran can hum a line or two.

 Many young people are full of yearning for Alishan, especially the girls from Alishan.

 In fact, the overseas provinces, like their province, have hilly landforms.

There are many mountains.

There are five mountain ranges alone: ​​the Central Mountain Range, the Snow Mountain Mountain Range, the Alishan Mountain Range, and the Yushan Mountain Range.

Due to the geographical location, the mountains that Li Duoyu and the others can see here should be the Snow Mountains in the north, not Alishan in the south.

 The fishing boat stopped after arriving at the last fishing spot.

 Everyone began to prepare for fishing.

Since he had a "boss" with him on this trip, Li Duoyu didn't let Qingguang follow him, and the job of copying fish and doing odd jobs fell to Chen Wenchao.

A total of four fishing rods were used this time, one of which had been "borrowed" by the fishing gear factory. Li Duoyu could only reluctantly part with it and took 500 yuan from the other party with tears in his eyes.

 Before going out to sea for fishing.

Li Shuguang and Chen Wenchao have already taught Shitou and Zhang Jinsha fishing skills for two or three days. They have learned all the ejector rods and rocking rods, and even occasionally use one or two professional fishing terms. The two of them now have expressions of confidence on their faces. .

 “I’m sure I’ll catch a big fish today.”

 Before fishing, Li Duoyu asked again: "Is it really an experience package that only costs fifteen yuan?"

 Zhang Jinsha chuckled and said, "Let's try it first. The two of us will spend money to help you fish, but you won't be happy yet."

 “Happy, of course I’m happy.” Li Duoyu smiled and said, “When the time comes, if you catch too much, don’t cry.”

"How can it be."

 Next, Li Duoyu threw a floating ball with a rope into the sea. It could be seen with the naked eye that the floating ball kept moving away from them.

This kind of flowing water is very good. For fishermen, they generally call it a fresh current.

Due to the influence of tides, seawater flows faster, with strong currents occurring from the 28th to the 6th and from the 13th to the 21st of each month on the lunar calendar.

 Not all currents are suitable for fishing. It also depends on the weather and water color, so there are only a few days in a month that are suitable for fishing.

Li Duoyu then used his fishing rod to explore the bottom. The sea area was almost fifty meters deep.

 After exploring the bottom, Li Duoyu helped them adjust the fishing rig, and then attached some tide-watching fish bought at the pier to their hooks, allowing them to try drift fishing first.

  Chen Wenchao, who had already had fishing experience, patiently taught them how to fish.

 Li Duoyu is the same as usual.

I still chose to catch grouper by knocking the bottom, but it was really tiring to catch the big grouper. Li Duoyu did not use a big fishhook this time, but chose a medium fishhook.

The most delicious grouper is the kind that weighs four to five kilograms, seven to eight kilograms, and more than ten kilograms. The meat will generally be a bit on the wood side.

Just like the red grouper fish that Li Duoyu and Zhao Jialu had as a treat some time ago, the meat was not that delicious, and the fish skin was mainly eaten. Lao Zhuang also reported to him that sales of large grouper are not very good unless they are sold in hotels.

Li Duoyu caught a large shrimp from the bucket that was also bought at the dock, hooked it directly on the back of the shrimp, and sank to the bottom of the sea along with the stone and lead pendant.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he hit the bottom, the tip of the fishing rod pressed down hard. Li Duoyu instantly lifted the rod and made a fish stabbing motion.

 With four fishing rods, Li Duoyu came out on top.

After seeing Li Duo catch a fish, Shi Shi, who was fishing on the bow of the boat, wanted to come over and watch, but he always felt that he was about to catch a fish, so he shouted: "Brother Yu, is the fish you caught big?"

Li Duoyu felt the power from the fishing rod. For Li Duoyu, who once caught more than 600 kilograms of tuna.

This kind of force is just like fishing for small fish.

“It shouldn’t be big, it would only weigh seven or eight pounds if it is stretched to death.”

The corner of Shitou's mouth twitched: "Seven or eight kilograms is not that big. He has also caught fish on the shore. One or two kilograms are very small, and many sea fish are only a few taels."

 After Li Duoyu pulled the fish out of the water, everyone saw a flash of red.

Li Shuguang shouted excitedly: "Damn it, it looks like a red grouper fish. It looks so big. It feels like it weighs almost ten pounds."

Shitou also said excitedly: "It's a good start, the red spots are delicious."

Li Duoyu took a closer look and found that there was a row of spines on the fish: "It seems that it is not a grouper but a red fish."

Shitou said: "Red friends are not bad, as long as they are red fish, they are easy to sell. Your fish can be sold for at least three yuan."

The red snapper, whose scientific name is purple snapper, likes to inhabit sandy bottom sea areas, shells, rocks, and coral reefs. It is a relatively common marine fish along the southern coast and is often caught by longline trawlers.

 Can be used for sashimi.

Braised and steamed are also good.

After the fish surfaced, Chen Wenchao immediately brought a net and fished out the red fish.

Since it is a bottom fish, after being pulled up, Hongyou didn’t have much energy anymore and his belly was very bulging.

The eyes were slightly protruding, and the fish was very greedy and swallowed a dead hook. Li Duoyu could only give it a death sentence, and there was no need to rescue it.

Just when Li Duoyu removed the hook, Zhang Jinsha, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted excitedly: "I seem to have caught a fish."

 “I’m so strong, what should I do?”

Chen Wenchao hurried over and saw Zhang Jinsha who was in a panic and didn't know what to do. "Put the pole up."

 “Top it, top it.”

 Chen Wenchao then said: "You increase the diarrhea force a little, adjust it to 40 pounds. Your line is running too fast. Your line has already run almost 100 meters."

 “Where can I adjust my purgative power?”

 “How do I read the poundage? I seem to have forgotten.”

 Zhang Jinsha’s brain is out of control now and he has no idea how to deal with it.

 Chen Wenchao was helpless. He only had a few places to adjust the entire fishing rod. After two days of teaching him, he could still forget it.

With the help of Chen Wenchao, Zhang Jinsha slowly pulled the fishing line back, but the fish resisted violently throughout the process.

 When it is pulled to the surface of the water.

Shitou was the first to shout: "Damn, it's so big, it's a mackerel, it's such a big mackerel."

 After learning that it was a mackerel, Chen Wenchao gave up the net and switched to a fish hook.

With quick accuracy and precision, he hooked directly on the head of the mackerel and lifted the more than 40 kilograms of mackerel on the spot.

This kind of fish cannot be kept alive and will literally die upon landing. In order to make it easier to remove the hook, Chen Wenchao gave the giant mackerel two mallets on the spot.

Zhang Jinsha looked at the forty-pound mackerel and felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe. This kind of giant mackerel costs at least three cents per kilogram.

 It is very delicious when used to make fish balls. If it weighs more than 40 kilograms, it can be sold for at least 13 yuan, as long as you catch two.

 You can get your money back immediately.

Chen Wenchao had just helped Zhang Jinsha pick off the fishhook when Shitou also shouted anxiously:

 “Brother Chao, come and help me.”

 “I seem to have caught a fish too, a big fish, a big fish.”

 Chen Wenchao hurriedly hooked up a tide watch to Zhang Jinsha's fishing rod, and then gave Shi Shi a disgusted look: "You are not very good. Why do you call me if you catch a fish?"

Shitou said awkwardly: "I'm nervous, I'm afraid that the fish will run away."

Chen Wenchao helped catch the fish. The two of them looked at a mackerel weighing more than three kilograms, placed next to a mackerel weighing more than forty kilograms.

 The picture is quite embarrassing.

Chen Wenchao chuckled: "Is it big?"

 Shitou scratched his head in embarrassment: "It's not bad, three pounds is not too small. What I caught on our island before was only one or two pounds."

Chen Wenchao said with disdain: "Next time, don't ask me to help you, a little fish like this." (End of Chapter)
