Chapter 223 A giant fish that rides all over the place!
Noon.
The sun hangs in the sky.
Zhao Dahai drove a speedboat and rushed to a new fishing spot.
“Huh?”
"The sea! Isn't this the place where people come to fish for grouper before a typhoon comes?"
Zhao Shi smoked a hookah, exhaled thick smoke, and immediately recognized where it was after taking a look.
Zhao Dahai nodded. This was the place where he and Zhong Shizhu caught a lot of groupers before the typhoon some time ago and made a lot of money.
"Second Grandpa!"
"I know that there are not many people fishing in this place usually. Usually people come only before a typhoon when there is a strong flow of water. But this does not mean that there are many people fishing in normal times. There are no fish here, it’s just harder to catch.”
Zhao Dahai knew that it was not that there were no fish here. Zhong Shizhu and the others had said that the seabed here was very complicated, with too many rocks and especially rotten fishing nets. If you didn’t fish here all year round, you couldn’t figure it out clearly. The hook might get stuck, so it was better to go somewhere else. Now that I have bought a new speedboat with a fish detection radar, it is worth trying it here to see if there is any chance.
Zhao Dahai was not in a hurry to fish right away. The entire reef area here was very large. He drove a speedboat and drove down different routes from top to bottom.
Zhao Dahai spent two or three hours to understand part of the entire reef, and found several places with deeper water and more complex structures.
Zhao Dahai took a rest. Relying on his own memory, the speedboat followed the route where Zhong Shizhu and others came here to catch large groupers on the last trip. He repeated it five or six times and found that something happened. Big changes, not only the depth of the sea water has changed a lot, the key is that the structure displayed on the fish detector has also changed a lot.
“No wonder there are relatively few people fishing here!”
Zhao Dahai shook his head. The structure of the seabed here has changed too much and is very unstable. The hook may be hooked. The key is that if it is not hooked today, it may be hooked tomorrow. Every time I come here, I have to start anew and explore again. Point, re-finding where the fish is is too time-consuming and a lot of gas money will be wasted.
“The sea!”
“How is it?”
“If we can’t catch it, let’s find another place or simply go home? Anyway, we made a lot of money today! ”
Zhao Shi squatted on the deck, holding the hookah in his hand. Zhao Dahai spent three hours constantly looking for places and routes where he could catch fish. He kept frowning, and it seemed like there was nothing suitable about him.
Zhao Shi glanced at the two 225-horsepower engines at the back of the speedboat. They had been running non-stop for two or three hours and burned a lot of gasoline. These were all costs.
"Second Grandpa."
"The structure of the seabed here has changed too fast and too much, and it is not easy to catch big fish."
"However, I just saw it There is a school of fish in one place. They are not big, but there are quite a few of them.”
“Let’s see if we can catch them.”
Zhao Dahai thought for a while and decided to catch small fish. Two hours ago, when he saw the signal of the fish detecting the fish school, he marked it. Now he opened the mark point, drove the speedboat over, and looked at the position and position of the fishing boat on the screen. The landmark points were getting closer and closer, and when there were about ten left, we slowed down and didn't stop until they coincided.
“This thing is really useful!”
Zhao Dahai is getting more and more handy. The fish detection radar navigation and other things on the speedboat are really useful. Wherever you pass by, as long as there is a structure, especially where you see schools of fish, just click a few times and write it down. You may be able to use it on your next trip to the sea. You don’t have to remember it in your head. This is really convenient.
Zhao Dahai looked at the fish detector carefully and saw that the fish signals were very dense.
“Second Grandpa!”
"The water is eighty meters deep."
"The fish is not big."
"Go directly to the string hook and electric winch!"
Zhao Dahai said as he spoke I want to give Zhao Shi the electric winch and fishing rod.
“Hmph!”
"I'm not used to using something like this!"
Zhao Shi refused to use the electric winch and took the lead weight and scale to start tying the fishing rig.
Zhao Dahai didn't force it. People of Zhao Shi's age are really not used to using electric winches. It's not that they don't know how to use it, but they are really not used to it. They are not used to spinning wheels.
Zhao Dahai thought for a while and did not use the electric winch immediately. Instead, he used his own hand spinning wheel. The fish detector could see that there were fish schools on the bottom of the sea, but he did not know what kind of fish they were. If the fish bites the hook, try using the hand crank first. If the fish bites the hook, especially when the fish bite the hook fiercely, then use the electric winch.
Zhao Dahai tied the bait cage, tied the lead pendant and tied the string hook. The Antarctic shrimp bricks had been thawed on the way there and were ready for use now. The bait cage was filled with Antarctic shrimps. Use five string hooks, hang shrimp meat on two hooks, and hang centipedes on the other three hooks. Try the first rod first to see what kind of fish are in the sea, and at the same time try what kind of bait you like.
"Second Grandpa!"
"What kind of fish is coming from?"
When Zhao Dahai's line group was just put into the sea and the line was lowered, Zhao Shi moved quickly and had already reeled in the line. Pull fish.
“Pan Zai!”
“Not bad! I can sell it for some money!”
While Zhao Shi was reeling in the line, he stared at the sea water. A long string of fish was pulled up from the sea precariously, and he recognized Panzi at a glance.
“Yo!”
“This guy’s size is pretty good!”
Zhao Dahai was a little disappointed, but he didn’t particularly care. Panzi is not a valuable fish, but these one-pound ones just caught are very delicious.
“Ha!”
"Second Grandpa!"
"Let's put in some effort and work hard to catch one or two hundred catties. We can make money!"
Zhao Dahai said while speeding up the speed of releasing the line. , put it directly at 80 meters, shook it up and down a few times, and a fish immediately took the bait. I continued shaking without worry. After waiting for five or six minutes, when there were no fish bites, I reeled in the line and pulled it up. I pulled the water surface and saw that there were fish on the three hooks. The other two hooks have no fish, and the hook with fish is hanging a sea centipede.
While picking fish and throwing them into the live cabin, Zhao Dahai asked his second grandfather Zhao Shicai what kind of bait he used. It was also sea centipede. He knew that the pan boy here today did not like shrimp meat, and what he liked to eat was sea centipede.
Zhao Dahai's hooks were all hung with sea centipedes. He tried several more poles, and each pole was filled with a string of five pancakes.
Zhao Dahai immediately changed the fishing rods and directly turned on the electric winch. He caught fish in a very short time after putting down these rods, and they started to bite when they were put down. This shows that the fish on the seabed are very large and the bites are very fierce. The electric winch Speed, very suitable for use at this time.
Zhao Dahai immediately installed two electric winch poles and locked them directly on the fort, one in front of him and one at another opposite fishing position behind him. Such a person Able to control two poles.
Zhao Dahai moved quickly, and in a few minutes he had installed everything. He hung the sea centipede on the hook, put one pole into the sea, and immediately turned around and put another pole.
Panzi is a small fish, there is no need to control the line, no need to control the fish, and there is no such thing as fighting fish. The bait is hung on a string hook. As soon as you arrive in Shuicheng, you will bite the hook immediately and wait for two or three days. Minutes. If you have time, you can lift the pole up and down and shake it a few times. More fish will be hooked. If you don’t have time, don’t worry about it. If you see the tip of the pole shaking and bending, there must be fish hooked. Push the switch and the electric The wheel rotates to take up the line. There is no need to pick up the fish immediately when it is pulled out of the water. I slowly pick the fish on the hook of another pole, hang the bait and put it back into the sea before handling it. There is no problem. A string of fish It's floating on the sea and can't run away.
“Coming!”
"Another full string of five fish!"
......
"Ha!"
"Can't one person catch two to three hundred kilograms at this speed for several hours? ”
……
Zhao Dahai had a great time fishing. The speed of the electric winch is really fast. A pole can be lifted up and down to catch three or five fish. It takes only five to six minutes and ten minutes to catch ten or eight fish, all weighing about one kilogram. Today, with this fish group and bite, I caught two Three hundred kilograms is not a problem, not to mention fifty yuan a kilogram and thirty yuan a kilogram. It is a bit hectic to take care of two poles, but it is barely enough.
Zhao Shi was very calm at the beginning, fishing for Panzi with his hand. Half an hour later, he watched Zhao Dahai pull strings one after another in the sea breeze. The key is to really save effort and be patient. No, he took a pole without saying a word.
Zhao Dahai smiled. He bought a total of three poles a few days ago, two hard and one soft. Two hard poles have been installed, and now the soft one is taken out and installed.
“Yo!”
“This fish mouth is really good!”
……
“The sea!”
“You are right! You may not be able to catch two hundred catties.”
……
Zhao Dahai and Zhao Shi took care of three poles, which was more than enough. They pulled fish out of the sea one after another and fished hard until there were no fish left.
Zhao Dahai shook his hands. He was very tired. He kept fishing for Panzi. There was no technical content and it was purely physical work.
Zhao Dahai looked at the time, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon before he knew it. Zhao Dahai and Zhao Shi had been busy fishing and had no time to rest or eat. Now that they stopped, their stomachs growled with hunger. They took out the lunch boxes they brought and ate big mouthfuls.
Zhao Dahai ate very quickly. In less than ten minutes, he finished all the rice and vegetables. He drank a few water, took the net, picked up all the plates in the living cabin and put them into the big Inside the refrigerator.
“Second Grandpa!”
"You can't escape two hundred catties, I guess it's two hundred and fifty-six catties!"
Zhao Dahai estimated how many fish he had caught while fishing.
“Hey!”
“How can fishing be better than setting up fishing nets?”
Zhao Shi calculated that these plates can be sold for at least seven to eight thousand yuan. Money, putting fishing nets may not necessarily catch so many fish.
"Ha!"
"Second Grandpa."
"We have better luck today. One is that we happened to find a school of fish, the second is that these pans are all good in size, and the second is that Three of these pans are biting the hook like crazy.”
Zhao Dahai shook his head. He did catch a lot of pans today, but this does not mean that he can catch so many every day, even if he comes back tomorrow. Here, even if the fish are still here, if they don’t open their mouths or bite the hook, they may not be able to catch a single fish, and it is impossible to have such a good harvest every time.
After Zhao Shi finished eating, he put down his lunch box, washed his hands, picked up his hookah, stuffed tobacco into it, lit it on fire, and started smoking slowly one after another.
"Hey!"
"I'm getting older!"
"I can't bear it for such a day, and I'm so tired now!"
Zhao Shi shook his head and sighed. Take a breath.
“Ha!”
"Second Grandpa!"
"You are over seventy, and you will be eighty soon!"
"You can eat, drink and go fishing!"
" What do you want to do?”
Zhao Dahai looked at the live cabin tray and found that he had almost fished it out. There were only a dozen left. He was about to pick them all up and put them in the refrigerator. An idea suddenly occurred to me.
"Dahai!"
"What are you doing?"
Zhao Shi smoked water pipes for several times and didn't hear Zhao Dahai speak. He turned around and saw that Zhao Dahai picked up A plate is hanging on the hook from a hand-cranked pole.
“Second Grandpa.”
“Didn’t I walk around this place for two or three hours before fishing for Panzi?”
“There are several places where the sea water is relatively deep, and it may be a trench.”
“It is already three or four o’clock at this time, and it is too late to change to other fishing spots.”
“I think Why don’t you give it a try and see if you can catch a big fish?”
Zhao Dahai held a live pan with one hand, picked up the hook with the other hand, and hung it carefully on the fish. Put it in the living cabin and take a look. It's like Pan Zai is jumping around and swimming around. He won't die for a while.
Zhao Dahai immediately clicked on several trenches he had marked in front of him and drove there in a speedboat. It was not too far away and the speedboat was fast. He arrived in about ten minutes.
Zhao Dahai picked up the plate hanging on the hook, put it into the sea, and swam quickly. However, the hook was pulled by the thread hanging on the hook. If he swam forward one meter, he had to change direction. The lead pendant pulled the plate underneath. Zai slowly disappeared into the sea.
Zhao Dahai looked at the fish detector. The sea water here is as deep as ninety-five meters. You can vaguely see a place with very dark colors, which is most likely a trench.
Zhao Dahai remembered that when he discovered this trench a few hours ago, he drove a speedboat and used a fish finder to scan it carefully. He found that it was only four to five hundred meters long.
Zhao Dahai is not experienced enough and is not able to tell whether the fish detector shows the location of a trench, a reef, or even a sunken ship. The only thing he can be sure of is that this place is different from other places. It has a structure, and I was very careful when I lowered the line. I stopped immediately when I reached 90 meters. After waiting for a while, I pulled it up without hanging the bottom. I continued to lower it for half a meter until it reached 93 meters. Hanging.
Zhao Dahai did not continue to lower the line and decided to try it first to see how it went.
Zhao Dahai looked at the signal on the fish detector and adjusted the direction of the speedboat.
Will there be any fish?
Zhao Dahai concentrated his energy, holding the fishing rod in his right hand, and controlling the speedboat with his left hand to drive forward slowly along the trench from one end to the other.
Zhao Shi did not get off the pole. He watched from the side as the speedboat slowly drove forward. His eyes widened and he became more and more nervous. He even forgot to smoke the hookah in his hand.
Zhao Dahai shook his head. The trench was not long. He drove the speedboat to control the speed. For five or six minutes, he "covered the current" again, but there was no movement.
Zhao Shi let out a long breath and felt that he was a little funny. A man in his seventies had been catching fish all his life. He shouldn't be so nervous. Just now he really thought that Zhao Dahai would definitely catch fish. He lowered his head and looked at the water in the hookah. When the cut tobacco is burnt out, I put it to my mouth and blow gently. A stream of water rushes out of the remaining cut tobacco. It falls into a jar hanging under the cigarette holder. I pinch a new cut tobacco in the bag, knead it into a small ball, and stuff it into the cigarette holder. , started smoking.
Zhao Dahai reeled in the line and pulled up the fish. He saw that the pan was full of energy and whether he needed to change it. He drove the speedboat back to where he started and put out the line. This time he tried to put it at 94 meters. Without hanging on the bottom, I controlled the speedboat to "cover the current" forward for the second time. Ten minutes later, the pole tip was motionless.
"What's going on?"
"Is there really no fish?"
Zhao Dahai kept covering the current until the sixth time. It is said that a fish has taken the bait, but there is no sign of a bite. The only gain is to confirm that this is indeed a trench with a hard bottom, and the lead weight will not be caught on the bottom.
"The big sea!"
"There should be no fish in this place!"
Zhao Shi was a little disappointed when he saw Zhao Dahai trying back and forth six times without catching any fish. , but this situation is very normal.
“No!”
“I have to try again!”
Zhao Dahai decided to give it one last try. If there were no fish, he would go back home.
Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat back to the beginning of the trench. Out of anger, he did not change the bait and still used a pan. He lowered it directly to 95 meters. He did not hit the bottom at all but dragged it directly to the bottom of the sea.
Zhao Dahai controlled the speedboat to cover the current.
Huh?
Could it be that my speed is too slow?
Zhao Dahai suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He had been worried that the fish on the bottom of the sea couldn't keep up with the current during his previous trips, so he deliberately slowed down. There were no fish bites. He might as well try to go faster this time and see. How about it.
Zhao Dahai just did what he said, and immediately added a little oil, and the speed of the speedboat immediately doubled.
Zhao Dahai controlled the speedboat with his left hand and only held the fishing rod with his right hand. He pulled the fishing rod with almost no warning and almost flew out.
“Do it!”
“Coming!”
Zhao Dahai immediately grabbed the fishing rod with both hands and pushed it up.
Zhao Shi was so frightened that the hookah in his hand fell to the ground.
"What kind of fish?"
"Is it a grouper!"
Zhao Shi stood up suddenly, very anxious, and immediately asked Zhao Dahai what kind of fish it was.
"I don't know!"
"I'm very strong, but I can't drill down hard!"
"It's probably not a grouper but another fish, but it's definitely not small!"< br>
Zhao Dahai held the pole firmly with both hands.
“What the heck!”
"Why are you running so fast?!"
"Come back to me!"
Zhao Dahai leaned back to death, his face was red from suppressing it, and the raised fishing rod bent out of a huge The arc, the spinning wheel rotates crazily, and the fishing line runs wildly out, riding away from the dust.
It’s a new month, please support me by recommending monthly tickets! Thanks!
