1983 Small Island, Starting From a Large Farmer

Chapter 169 Sea fishing is not that simple

 After arriving at the fishing point.

Li Duoyu didn't bother to look at the color of the water and the tide. To be honest, he really couldn't understand it.

 After fishing for so many years, he only knows that the weather is fine, the air pressure is high, and the tide is high.

 Yukou will be better.

 As for what causes it, I have never seriously understood it.

 After all, when they were fishing in their previous life, the fishermen who specialized in fishing and selling money were all equipped with technology.

Sonar fish finder specially designed to find fish. You can know the water depth and whether there are fish by just scanning it. There is no need to search the bottom at all.

Fishing wheels also use electric winches, so it is easy to catch fish without much effort at all.

 You can fish in this era.

 It’s not so easy.

Li Duoyu plans to hit the bottom first.

 He tied a stone to the end of the line group, and then grabbed a still alive Wangchao from the foam box.

 Throw it directly onto the deck.

 Wang Chao immediately fell to his knees.

 Soon, he was hung on a large fishhook and thrown into the sea.

The reason why Li Duo fish falls to the tide is because he is afraid that it can run too fast. If it goes to the bottom of the sea and drags the hook to drill a hole for you, it is 100% to catch the earth.

 The bait should be fresh and alive.

 But don’t be too active, otherwise if you get hung up on the bottom, it will be easy to lose more than you gain.

 And Li Duoyu put out about 40 meters of fishing line, which is the bottom.

Li Shuguang on the side was very surprised: "Why is it so shallow? I thought it was at least one or two hundred meters."

Li Duoyu smiled. In this era, due to the low level of education, even local fishermen felt that the outer sea was very deep.

But in fact, the average water depth of the strait they were in was only about sixty meters, which was not as deep as they thought.

Li Duoyu was just about to take the line back, but he didn’t expect that as soon as he went down for a while, the fishing rod immediately got a signal.

 Because it is bottom fishing.

Li Duoyu locked the drum's purging force on the spot, and at the moment of locking.

 The entire fishing rod bent instantly.

 Everything happened so suddenly that Li Shuguang, who was watching from the sidelines, didn't even react.

“Damn it, you caught the fish so quickly?”

Li Duoyu looked nervous. The moment he hit the fish, he could clearly feel the huge pulling force of the fish.

It is easier to catch grouper by bottom fishing, but groupers have the habit of drilling holes. After catching food, they often quickly retreat into the hole. If the hook and line are pulled into the hole, it will be difficult to get out. , the bigger the fish, the more difficult it is to handle.

 So when fishing for large grouper, the discharge force of the fishing reel must be locked, and after catching the fish, it must be pulled away from the fishing point as soon as possible.

 As long as it is dragged away from the fishing point, as the water layer increases and the water pressure decreases, the fish belly will tend to inflate, thereby reducing the intensity of the struggle.

But the fish Li Duoyu caught was struggling from beginning to end, and it didn’t look like a grouper.

Li Duoyu had a tug-of-war with this fish for more than ten minutes, and a fish with a silvery red light emerged from the water.

 Chen Wenchao on the side quickly used it to copy the net.

 Cook up the fish.

Li Shuguang said in shock: "Damn it, it's so big, it must weigh at least thirty kilograms."

Li Qingguang asked:

“Brother, what kind of fish is this? I’ve never seen it before.”

Li Shuguang, who often fishes, occasionally catches this kind of fish: "This one is called Honggan, and the purchase price is about 20 cents. If you catch a lot of fish, you can sell it for about 7 yuan."

Li Qingguang looked shocked: "Why is such a big fish so cheap?"

Li Shuguang sighed: "The main reason is that the meat of this fish is hard and a bit sour, so it is not very delicious."

Li Duoyu looked at the first big red gancan he caught and smiled helplessly. Just like what his cousin said, this kind of fish really cannot be sold at a good price in China.

 But this fish has a very famous name on the island country - Kanba fish.

This kind of fish has only one bone in the middle, and the other parts are all meat, making it very suitable for sashimi. But there is no way to eat sashimi in China. Using traditional domestic cooking methods, the taste of this red sweettail cannot be compared with that of large yellow croaker and grouper.

And it belongs to the trevally family. If this kind of fish is not bled in time when caught, the fish meat will become sour due to the accumulation of lactic acid.

The correct way to eat this kind of fish is to bleed it first, then freeze it to remove the acid, and finally sashimi it on a platter.

With the current transportation conditions, it is simply impossible. Unless you eat it freshly on the boat, otherwise the fish will not taste very good from the moment it is caught by the fishermen to the mouth of the consumer.

 After Li Duoyu caught the first fish.

Everyone also picked up their fishing rods to fish. There were three fishing rods divided into the bow, middle and stern of the boat, and they began to lower the rods.

Li Qingguang was confused. He clearly had five fishing rods: "Brother Duoyu, why? I don't have any fishing rods."

 Li Duoyu didn’t wait for an answer.

Li Shuguang said with disgust: "Everyone is fishing. If we catch a fish together, who will help the other to catch the fish? There must be someone to help."

"ah."

Li Qingguang’s mouth was wide open. He finally understood why these three **** were so kind and allowed him, a novice with no fishing experience, to board the boat.

Gengqing asked him to come here to do odd jobs.

As soon as Li Shuguang finished speaking, he immediately felt something was wrong with the fishing rod in his hand. He used the method Li Duoyu taught him to stand up the entire fishing rod on the spot.

However, I found that the drum made a "click-click" sound and the fishing line kept being pulled out.

Although I have done many experiments with Li Haoran, when it comes to actual combat, I am still in a hurry and unable to judge what is going on.

 “There are many fish, how to deal with this.”

Li Duoyu on the side frowned when he heard this voice: "When you tap the bottom to catch grouper, you have to lock the relief valve."

 “How to lock.”

Li Shuguang became nervous and forgot all the fishing techniques Li Duoyu taught him before.

Li Duoyu glanced at him with disgust, and then said to Li Qingguang:

 “Qingguang, come over and help me look at the fishing rod.”

"okay."

　　Li Qingguang, who had just looked resentful, was suddenly smiling and gentle.

 Damn it, I finally touched the fishing rod, let me catch a fish and feel so good!

 After Li Duoyu came to Li Shuguang's side, he directly locked the relief valve of the drum.

  It’s a pity that it’s too late.

Li Duoyu tried to lift the fishing rod, but found that the performance of the fishing rod was very dead and there was no response at all.

 Looking at this situation, it is likely that the grouper was caught and it ran back into the hole and got stuck.

Li Shuguang frowned and asked, "How is it?"

Li Duoyu shook his head: "It's a pity. This fish should be quite big. Let's wait for a while. If it still refuses to come out, we will have to cut the line."

I heard that I need to cut the cord.

Li Shuguang looked annoyed and guilty: "I'm really sorry, I got stuck on the first rod. If I cut the thread, I'll pay for it."

 Li Duoyu patted him on the shoulder.

“It’s okay, it’s normal to get stuck. I’ve failed many times before when I was a newbie. Just get used to it.”

before?

Li Shuguang couldn’t react. Fishing rods with many fishes only became available recently. How long ago was it?

 Chen Wenchao's fishing method is relatively conservative. He does not have the courage of Li Shuguang and does not dare to fish on the bottom. Instead, he uses the tide as bait to catch marine fish in the middle and lower layers.

  Not long after, he also caught a fish, a red sweet carp weighing more than ten kilograms.

But this is also normal. Red anchovy usually appears in groups. Generally, if you catch one red anchovy, it is easy to catch a second one.

 At this time.

Li Qingguang, who was holding the fishing rod on the side, could clearly feel that the fishing rod was bent, and the force coming from the fishing rod was extremely huge.

 Due to an unstable center of gravity, his body hit the board of the boat and he sat on the board, but he still held the fishing rod tightly with both hands.

　　 said with excitement:

 “Brother Duoyu, you are so strong, you must be a big fish.”
