Golden Fishery

The Harvest left the pier and sailed to the deep sea with the wind and waves. A helicopter whirred overhead, and Bird's eyes kept scanning the radar screen and the sea surface, passing some information to the fishing boats below.

The screen of the sonar fish finder is constantly beating, filtering the searched catch information, looking for the large cod school that was previously located.

In the past, fishermen had to go to sea almost every day, and every time they went to sea, they paid thousands of dollars for diesel. Most of the work they did was to pave the way for today.

The sonar has the function of catching and marking. They patrol the fishing ground again and again, mark the fish they encounter, and catch them in order, instead of just finding a place to throw the net.

The Seagod consciousness moved through the water, and groups of big fish came shaking their heads and wagging their tails.

Small and lean mackerel, slender Atlantic herring, fat Atlantic salmon, bright silverscale salmon, huge and strong haddock, schools of Atlantic cod, continuous flakes of pollock and redfish cod.

These fish are the most common species in fishing grounds, and can be found in almost every sea area, with only the difference in quantity.

The sea god's consciousness walked through the deep water, and the turbot began to appear. This kind of flat-bodied precious sea fish was swimming cautiously in the water. Several two- to three-meter-long tuna roared in, and the turbot immediately stuck to the bottom of the sea. Its flat body was like a cardboard. The tuna walked away without seeing it.

A two-meter-long halibut quickly swam over. It was not interested in the turbot of the same family and genus, and swam towards a group of bright red goldeneye bream.

King salmon, which is not inferior to halibut in body length, also appeared. It opened its mouth to reveal its sharp teeth, and the halibut backed away.

A clumsy sunfish swam unsteadily in the water, deaf to the killers passing by. It looked like a broken jar. Occasionally, a few fish will be attracted by the hormones secreted by it, and approach it to absorb these hormones, which can treat patients.

More sick fish choose to look for doctors such as peterpine rock shrimp and hedgehog shrimp. They are close to the crevices of the reef where the doctor shrimps hide, and let these small shrimps clean their rotten tissues and parasites for them.

Flocks of short-tailed fulmars swim on the water surface, and their excrement becomes a delicacy that Peterpine rock shrimp, mantis shrimp, and shrimp girls compete for. The shrimp girl, also known as the mantis shrimp, takes the initiative. Because they are the best at fighting.

Going further into the deep sea, there are more precious fish species such as wrasse, semi-smooth tongue sole, and stone bream. They carefully swim among the seaweeds, looking for food, and when they see the dolphins appear, they immediately dive into the bottom of the water to hide.

Dolphins were spotted on the sonar fish finder.

The bull shouted excitedly: "It's tuna again! Look, come and look, these big fish must be... oh,!"

Several dolphins jumped out of the water and fell into the water again. The bull spread his hands helplessly. He admitted that these were dolphins and not bluefin tuna. Seeing this, the fishermen burst out laughing.

Qin Shiou also laughed, and he was laughing at the dolphins who did meritorious service. Those are bluefin tuna, not dolphins.

Golden Spanish mackerel, sea bass, sea crucian carp, walleye, swordfish, bonito, bonito, bonito, mackerel...

The diversity of fish species in the Daqin Fishery will definitely surprise other fishery owners, such rich fishery resources. Most fishing grounds disappeared twenty or thirty years ago.

A large school of fish marked appeared. This is a group of Atlantic cod, which Qin Shiou snatched from the fishing ground of a domineering guy who wanted to bully him at no cost.

In one year, these fish grew from palm-sized fry to more than half a meter long. The growth rate can only be described as miraculous.

This year's Daqin Fishing Ground is not the best time for fishing. The growth of fish, shrimp and crab in the North Atlantic is relatively slow. Atlantic cod is usually cultivated for five or six years before it is suitable for production. At that time, they can grow to seventy or eighty centimeters.

But the food needs to be eaten at one bite, and the road needs to be walked step by step. It is impossible for the Daqin Fishing Farm to catch the limit of the fishery for the first time. It is impossible for Qin Shiou and Butler’s sales channels to open many restaurants and hotels this year. This year they only opened one. It's just a prologue.

After finding the school of Atlantic cod, Shaq took the helm, the sea monster and the smoker led the fishermen to lower their nets, and the Harvest lowered the huge fishing net, spreading out to envelop the fish school.

The fishing boat sailed forward slowly, the fishing net was stretched, and the fish were caught in. The catch was reflected on the sonar fish finder, but it was not very clear, only a yellow dot flickered, which was the fish in the fishing net. catch.

The Harvest sailed for about half an hour, and almost all the fish in this group entered it. The bulls activated the electric brakes, the motors started, and the turbines dragged the fishing nets to start recycling.

Zach and several fishermen opened the entrance of the ice cabin, the fishing net was dragged up, the cable was stretched out of the sea, and finally the catch was caught together.

The fishing net was empty when it was thrown down, but now the fishing net has become a large ellipsoid with a diameter of more than four meters.

The fishing net was pulled to the entrance of the ice cabin and opened, and the Atlantic cod fell into the ice cabin like a hailstorm!

Looking at these huge cod, the fishermen high-fived each other, and Shaq poked his head out of the cockpit and shouted: "Guys, can anyone tell me how this year's catch is?"

"Harvest! Harvest!" a group of fishermen cheered.

With the resources in Newfoundland's fishing grounds depleted, it has been a long time since the fishermen of Farewell Island have experienced the feeling of catching their catches heartily. For fishermen, seeing a rich catch in the fishing net is a visual feast and a g-spot that can refresh them.

Since 1970, the global catch of Atlantic cod has dropped by 70% compared with that during World War II. In the 21st century, this rate has continued to decline, reaching an astonishing 10%. become an endangered species.

For this reason, Canada did not hesitate to close down the Newfoundland fishing grounds, and they have not been fully opened until now. This has saved the fate of Atlantic cod and allowed their populations to gradually recover.

However, it is still difficult to recover to the peak. During World War II, supplies were scarce. Cod was once the first choice for the people of the Allied countries to supplement protein and nutrition. At that time, the annual catch was more than 10 million tons!

now what? Canada produces about 800,000 tons of Atlantic cod a year.

Bull and Qin Shiou said that the net bag Atlantic cod weighed three and a half tons in total.

Putting away the fishing nets, Qin Shiou went to the ice cabin to have a look. This time, all the big cods were harvested, and the small cods leaked out of the net mouth. This is the best protection for the fishing ground.

The fishing net used by the Harvest has a diameter of ten centimeters. These adult cod can escape from the fishing net if they choose a good angle to walk through. However, cod is usually caught sideways, so big fish cannot escape.

Looking at these lively big fish, Qin Shiou laughed, the fishery has invested so much, and the capital can finally be recovered! (to be continued)
