Chapter 345: Not wandering outside the cave
Zhao Dahai opened the fish finder navigation. When he came here for the first time, he scanned the fishing spots, marked several spots, and tried them one by one to see where there were fish.
Zhao Dahai is not worried at all about not being able to catch fish. The sea water here is deep enough and the seabed structure is complex. If there is no spotted snapper, there will definitely be other fish, especially grouper. Just look and you won’t find it. Can it be caught if the opening is opened?
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
The sun is getting hotter and hotter.
The sea is full of water, reflecting the sun's rays like a mirror, making it extremely hot.
Wu Weimin took a bottle of mineral water and drank it in one gulp. It was too hot. No matter how much water he drank, it was not enough. He lowered his head and looked at the fishing rod on the gun stand. The rod remained motionless for ten minutes. It passed. For three hours, Zhao Dahai changed several spots and fished at each spot for at least half an hour. He didn't catch any fish but caught a lot of fish on the bottom.
“The sea!”
“It seems like today is really not a good time for fishing!”
“Ha!”
"It's not that fishing is not suitable, but that you can't catch big fish!"
"I caught a lot of big-eyed pheasants in the morning. No matter what, I will definitely make a profit."
Wu Weimin said As he said this, he couldn't help but laugh. He and Zhao Dahai had gone out to sea several times to catch fish, and every time they had a good harvest, they actually caught a lot of fish today, but they didn't catch any real big fish. If the boss of the speedboat goes to sea, this is already a very rare harvest, but when it comes to Zhao Dahai, it feels abnormal.
Zhao Dahai was a little helpless. He couldn't catch fish at the spot where he fished for spotted snapper. He changed several spots but still couldn't catch fish.
Is it true that you can’t catch any fish today?
Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat forward slowly. It was the first time he came here and he had already tried all the spots he found. There were no fish and it was already late. It was too late to change to other fishing spots, so he could only try it here. See if you can find one or two suitable spots to see if there are any fish.
Zhao Dahai watched the fish finder and studied the topography of the seabed for almost an hour, but could not find a suitable spot.
Wu Weimin said nothing. Zhao Dahai wanted to find where the fish was, but he felt that the chance today was slim.
Wu Weimin didn't care at all and went fishing in the open sea. This situation is very normal. Don't say that he could catch fish the day before but not today. Even if he could catch fish an hour ago, the next one would It is possible to catch no fish every hour.
Wu Weimin looked at the sun that was starting to set in the west, and went home in an hour or two. The big-eyed chickens he caught early in the morning, especially the record-breaking sea wolf fish he caught later. , Today’s harvest is already good.
Zhao Dahai looked at the topography of the seafloor displayed on the fish finder. It could not be said to be smooth, but there were not many structures that could really hide fish.
Is it really weird?
With such a terrain, why are there no fish at certain points and large structures?
Is it possible that the fish really didn’t open their mouths today?
Zhao Dahai was puzzled.
The structure of the seabed at this farthest fishing spot is not too complicated. Except for a few points that have relatively complex structures, the rest of the places are all flat, or just some small structures.
Generally speaking, in a terrain like this, the big fish are all concentrated on the few large structures that they have found. There should be not only fish in such a place, but also a lot of fish.
The opposite is true.
If it is a relatively close fishing spot, especially if there are many speedboats that often come to fish, there will be no fish left. However, this fishing spot is almost 120 nautical miles away, which is very far. There are very few speedboats coming here to fish. In addition, the weather has been very bad in the past few days, and it is even more unlikely that speedboats will take the risk to come here to fish. .
I am most likely the first person to come here to fish, especially since I have caught a lot of spotted snapper before. When I came here for the first time, I caught a seventy or eighty pound Daqing. spot. Now I come here one day later and I can’t catch a single fish. This is really abnormal.
There can be no fish!
There are 100% fish in this fishing spot. There is no fish caught, but I can’t find the fish anywhere!
Zhao Dahai's speedboat stopped at one of the points with a complex structure, frowning and carefully wondering where the fish had gone.
Zhao Dahai stared at the coordinates of the point on the fish detector, suddenly had an idea, and slapped the back of his head hard. Is such a simple thing worth pondering? Isn't this obvious?
“Ah!”
"Zhao Dahai!"
"What's wrong? What's going on?"
Wu Weimin was startled.
Zhao Dahai didn’t say anything, and immediately started to prepare the fishing rod, hung up live shrimps, and drove the speedboat about five or six meters away from the point. He looked at the topography of the seabed. It should be rocks, but they were all small rocks. , the water depth is 120 meters, and the line is set out to 118 meters.
Zhao Dahai directly released the line to hit the bottom. The lead hit the seabed and the line became loose.
Zhao Dahai waited for a while, then took the fishing rod with both hands and lifted it up without hanging on the bottom. He took in one meter of line. After waiting for two minutes and there was no movement, he continued to take in one meter of line.
Zhao Dahai did not continue to reel in the line. Some waves began to appear on the calm sea. Without using the top flow machine, the speedboat swayed and moved up and down with the ups and downs of the waves.
Are there any fish in this place?
Is this impossible?
Wu Weimin looked at the fishing rod on the gun mount in front of Zhao Dahai.
ah?
Did it bend?
Really bent!
Wu Weimin's eyes suddenly widened. The fishing rod in front of Zhao Dahai initially followed the ups and downs of the waves, bending rhythmically but suddenly and sharply bent downwards, hitting the surface of the sea water.
“Ha!”
"Finally let me catch you!"
Zhao Dahai kept his right hand on the take-up switch of the electric winch. When he saw the tip of the pole bending downwards, he pushed forward hard and pushed it all the way to the bottom. , the electric winch rotates all of a sudden.
“Not too big, not too big!”
“He weighs twenty or thirty pounds!”
Zhao Dahai waved his right hand vigorously, very excited, for several hours Finally found where the fish was.
Where are the fish?
If you can’t find it in the structure area, it must have wandered outside.
Each grouper has its own territory and will not go too far. It must be around the point marked by it.
Zhao Dahai stood on the edge of the speedboat, looking down into the sea.
“Zhao Dahai!”
“It’s really a blue spot!”
“A weight of twenty or thirty pounds is considered very good!”
“You don’t need to catch too many, just eight or ten. Is it possible? ”
Wu Weimin was very excited. He couldn’t catch a fish for so long, but now he finally caught a fish.
“Ha!”
"Boss Wu."
"Ten or eight blue spots weighing twenty or thirty kilograms? Doesn't that mean we don't need to catch too many?"
Zhao Dahai was equally excited. Not only did you catch fish and make money, but more importantly, your guess was correct.
Zhao Dahai pulled the line and pulled Qingbao out of the water to the edge of the speedboat. He picked up the fish with a net and while picking up the hook, he urged Wu Weimin to fish quickly.
Wu Weimin then realized and immediately hung up the live shrimps and put them into the sea.
"Knock the bottom!"
"Just hit the bottom here!"
..."Knock the bottom once. If there is no movement, pull up the line and take up one meter, and then take up the line. The line is two meters!”
……
"If there are no fish, keep hitting the bottom!"
......
Zhao Dahai used pliers to remove the hook from the mouth of Qingpan's fish, then hung the live shrimp again and put it down.
“Win!”
“There is really a fish!”
Wu Weimin hit the bottom for the second time, and the bite came very clearly and fiercely. He kept concentrating and did not miss the bite. He pushed the switch to take up the line and watched the rod tip bend downwards. This was when he hit the fish.
“Not too big, not too big!”
“My one is really not big!”
“It’s five or six pounds or seven or eight pounds!”< br>
Wu Weimin looked at the rotating electric winch and became even more excited and excited.
Today I thought there was no way I could catch any more fish, but now I caught a fish suddenly, and I felt like I was overjoyed that I had recovered something.
Zhao Dahai seizes the time to fish. If you couldn't catch fish in one place, you immediately moved to another place. All fish were caught five or six meters around each point.
The sunset on the horizon is as red as burning.
Patch after piece of golden light flashed on the sea, one after another jumping, like golden fish, very beautiful.
Zhao Dahai looked up at the sky high and far away, especially the sun on the horizon that was almost sinking into the sea.
"Let's go!"
"It's almost time!"
"Today is really another day to make a fortune!"
Zhao Dahai looked down at himself In the live cabin at my feet, I caught seven or eight blue spots in just one hour, each weighing more than ten pounds. When fishing in the open sea, as long as you find the location of the fish and there is a bite, you can catch it in one or two hours. Get rich.
“Zhao Dahai!”
"Thankfully you didn't give up. If we had changed, we would have missed these fish!"
Wu Weimin put away the fishing rod. The bosses of other speedboats simply give up when they encounter such a situation, especially when they have caught so many big eyes early in the morning and have already made money. They just fish casually and catch no fish. Zhao Dahai has been thinking about how to find fish, how to catch fish, and how to catch three green spots of good size. The first one is smaller, the second one is more than ten kilograms, and the third one is more than ten pounds. More than forty pounds.
Zhao Dahai packed up the speedboat and rushed back immediately. When he returned to Langtou Village, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
The pier in the village is very lively, and fishing boats are starting to go fishing one after another.
Zhao Dahai saw the fishing boats of Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou leaving the dock. He shouted and chatted for a few words before riding a tricycle to take the fish home.
"Big-eyed chicken weighs two hundred and nineteen pounds, one hundred and ten yuan per pound, twenty-four thousand and ninety yuan,"
"Nine blue spots, one hundred and ninety-two pounds per pound," Two hundred and sixty yuan per catty, 49,946 yuan."
"The total is 74,036 yuan."
Wu Weimin calculated it. After settling the account, he took the money and gave it to Zhao Dahai. The sea wolf fish is big, take it back and see how many fish it sells.
“Zhao Dahai!”
"Why do I feel like I made a lot of money today?"
"The four thousand yuan for the boat fare is really a bargain!"
Wu Weimin looked at himself in the refrigerator and water tank The fish caught were not as many as Zhao Dahai's, but they were still quite a lot. The big-eye chicken fish weighed about one hundred kilograms, and the blue spots weighed sixty or seventy kilograms. Their value far exceeded the four thousand yuan boat fee.
Wu Weimin realized more deeply why other people wanted to go fishing with Zhao Dahai's speedboat?
“Ha!”
"Boss Wu!"
"You are welcome to go fishing with me again when you have time!"
Zhao Dahai packed up all the fish, put them on Wu Weimin's car, and stood in the yard At the door, he kept watching Wu Weimin's car disappear out of sight before turning back to the yard.
Zhao Dahai took a bath and it was already eleven o'clock in the evening when he had dinner. I was very tired today. After dinner, I chatted with my grandma Zhong Cuihua for a few words and then went to bed. This is what people who go to sea are like this. Don’t look at making money or even making a lot of money, but the backbreaking work is not for people in this industry. , I simply can’t imagine the hard work involved.
Zhao Dahai woke up and looked out the window. The sun had risen early.
Zhao Dahai went to the pier immediately after breakfast. He came back late yesterday and didn't have time to clean up. He had to go out to sea with Shi Jiehua's fishing boat before three o'clock in the afternoon. He would spend the next twenty days or even a month overseas.
Zhao Dahai got on the speedboat and packed out all the valuable things. Other things, especially those that needed to be fixed, were all fixed. It took him two hours to pack them up.
Zhao Dahai checked the cables and anchors of the speedboat, and they were all fine. Then he felt relieved, left the speedboat, boarded the diesel fishing boat, and packed it up in the same way.
Zhao Dahai went to the pier, looked at the speedboats and diesel fishing boats, and rode a tricycle home. During the time they were out at sea, the speedboats and fishing boats had already told Zhong Shizhu and the others that they had to look after themselves when there were storms.
Zhao Dahai returned home, cooked lunch early, and packed up his things. Clothes and daily toothbrushes were all put into a bag. The most important thing was the fishing rod. This is a guy who eats. .
One o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhong Shizhu drove a tricycle to the door of his house.
Zhao Dahai said a few words to Zhong Cuihua, carried his things and strode out of the door, got on Zhong Shizhu's tricycle, and Zhao went to Shijiao Village.
Zhong Cuihua stood at the door of the yard, watching Zhao Dahai go further and further away, and was still out of sight. She squatted down and sat on the threshold of the yard, reached out and patted Xiao Naihei's head.
It is normal for people in fishing villages to go out to sea. I was a little worried, but I kept it to myself and did not say anything out loud.
Not to mention twenty days, one month. In the early years, some people had to go to sea for a year and a half.
Shek Kok Village Pier.
"Uncle Shizhu!"
"You and Uncle Liu will have to worry about things at home!"
Zhao Dahai got out of the car.
"Ha!"
"Don't worry!"
"Lei Dayou, Liu Bin and I are both in the village."
"Not to mention, Uncle Zhao Shi is here In the village. Isn’t it normal for people in fishing villages to go to sea?”
Zhong Shizhu agreed.
Zhao Dahai said nothing and turned around and boarded Shi Jiehua's fishing boat.
Zhong Shizhu has been waiting for Zhao Dahai's fishing boat to leave the dock before returning to Langtou Village.
