Golden Fishing Village

Lu Zhizi sat on the side of the boat and played with the tiger. She threw down pieces of beef, and the tiger swung its head and tail to eat it. It barked a few times from time to time, looking very happy.

Ao Xiaoniu lay on the bow of the boat and stared at the sea seriously, his eyes almost turned red, but he didn't find a single mackerel.

This made him very disappointed and said: "Oh, the ocean is so polluted and the fishing resources are so damaged. I haven't seen a single big mackerel."

Ao Muyang said: "How can a giant mackerel be discovered so easily? Just pay attention to the tiger. If a mackerel appears, the tiger will definitely dive to chase it."

Ao Xiaoniu was stunned and said angrily: "Yes."

At noon, Ao Muyang took out the dried beef jerky and shared it with the two of them. This was lunch.

Because he had to buy beef for Tiger every day, he became familiar with the owner of the beef stall. When the owner had good beef, he would leave two pieces for him. He would buy it and make it into sauce or dry it to make beef jerky.

After eating a few pieces of dried meat, Ao Muyang jumped into the water, looking for mackerel while absorbing the water vapor.

Lu Zhizi said on the boat: "Are we going a little deep now?"

Ao Muyang said: "It's okay. It's a nice day today and there's no strong wind at night. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Ao Xiaoniu had blind confidence in him: "Teacher, I tell you, what you heard from Uncle Yang is correct, and Uncle Yang is right here. With him here, we are very safe!"

Hearing what they said, Lu Zhizi felt relieved.

After searching the water for a while but no big mackerel was found, Ao Muyang returned to the boat and said, "Wait patiently, no fish has appeared yet. Come on, Teacher Lu, you can practice swinging and raising the pole first."

To swing the pole is to throw the fishhook down, and to raise the pole is to put the fishhook away. These are the basic skills of fishing.

Lu Zhizi said: "It's not like I haven't fished before, I know these things well."

Ao Muyang said: "You must at least practice raising the pole. We are floating fishing for mackerel. Do you know why it is called floating fishing? There is a saying."

He threw the fishing rod down and then quickly lifted it up to demonstrate: "When a fish takes the bait, you have to use all your strength to lift it up and lift it out of the water at once."

Lu Zhizi was stunned and said: "Is this so? Wouldn't it be easier for the fish to decouple?"

Ao Xiaoniu rushed to say: "Don't worry about it, as long as you catch it, Uncle Yang will catch it with the fishing net."

Ao Muyang nodded and said: "Yes, this will indeed detach the fish, but as long as it is lifted out of the water, I will use the net bag to catch it."

"The reason for this is because the hook we used is a bit small. If we fight a protracted battle with mackerel, it is more likely to become detached."

After listening to his explanation, Lu Zhizi understood, and then she started practicing.

Ao Muyang stood behind her and taught her: "Remember, don't raise the rod as soon as you see the float sinking. This will make it easy to let go, especially if you pay attention when raising the rod. Although you are using a hard rod, it is still elastic. , be careful of the rebounding fishhook injuring yourself.”

Lu Zhizi was training when the tiger dived into the water and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang immediately jumped into the water to check. Fortunately, he came across two large mackerel, each of which was one meter and a half long!

So he quickly climbed onto the boat, dropped anchor, caught a crucian carp from the bucket, hung it on the hook and threw it down.

While setting the hook, he explained: "It is most suitable to use crucian carp as bait. Mackerel likes to prey on small fish, and crucian carp is a freshwater fish. After entering the sea, it will struggle crazily, which can better attract the Mackerel. "

Not long after his words fell, the float floating on the water began to shake, and then sank into the water.

Ao Xiaoniu said excitedly: "I took the bait!"

Ao Muyang nodded. He looked at Lu Zhizi and said, "Don't be anxious at this time. Steady your arm and count silently for five or six seconds. You sink the tip of the pole, lower it to a position close to the water, and then shake the roller." When you start reeling in the thread, you must be quick and strong!”

As he spoke, he grabbed the fishing rod with one hand and quickly shook the roller with the other to take back the fishing line.

"Now, when the fishing line is still half a meter away from the sea surface, use all your strength to pull up the fishhook. Regardless of whether it will cause the fish to decouple, you will finally pull it up with all your strength..."

He pulled hard, and a big fish was dragged directly out of the sea!

This fish is one meter and three meters long, with a round and strong body, blue and black spots on its back, a shiny silver belly, and a tail that is crossed like scissors. It is a big mackerel.

He picked up the fish with one hand, grabbed the long net bag next to him with the other hand, and swung it towards the fish with lightning speed, accurately landing under the big fish. At this time, he let go of his hand and the fish It happened to fall into the fishing net.

Once the net bag catches the fish, it can't escape.

Ao Muyang let go of the fishing rod and let it drag the fishing line and struggle in the sea.

There was a rope tied to the net bag. Ao Muyang pulled the rope, the mouth of the net bag shrank, and then easily dragged the fish back.

After dragging the fish onto the boat, he quickly put it into the ice compartment and covered it with ice. The mackerel must be kept fresh, otherwise it will be truly worthless.

There was another mackerel in the water, but it had been scared away.

After waiting for a while, they encountered a fish again. Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu were in charge of the fishing rod. She grabbed the fishing rod and Ao Xiaoniu turned the wheel seat, and then pulled the fish out.

Lu Zhizi did not have the strength like Ao Muyang and could not pull the big fish directly out of the water, so he could only pull it close to the sea surface.

This was enough for Ao Muyang. He grabbed the net pole and poked it down, catching the big fish and netting it up.

After catching the fish, Lu Zhizi stretched out his hand to Ao Muyang with a smile on his face: "High five, oh yeah, happy cooperation!"

Ao Xiaoniu jumped up: "And me."

They didn't get much in the afternoon, but in the evening, the harvest came.

In the evening, the sea ebbs and the sea water moves. This is the favorite living environment for mackerel. They need a lot of oxygen and like to live in an environment with abundant water flow.

So, at this time, mackerel become active and appear on the sea surface in greater numbers.

The most suitable time for drift fishing mackerel is called the 28 tide. It is best when the tide rises by two points or eight points and recedes by two points or eight points. At this time, the sea water moves most violently.

However, this time point is difficult to grasp. The time of high tide and low tide changes every day, and Ao Muyang can't be sure.

He made a rough calculation, and then led Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu to work, constantly setting hooks and raising rods, and harvested more than 20 large mackerels.

The harvest was great, and it took a lot of time. At first, Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu were in an excited state and didn't know what was going on. When they calmed down, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Ao Muyang calmed them down and drove the boat back. They went too far into the sea, and it would take two or three hours to get back.

The sea fishing boat galloped back all the way under the moonlight. Suddenly, the tiger leading the way changed direction and swam to the south, and came out of the water and barked, as if he had discovered something.

Ao Muyang was puzzled, and also slightly changed the course to follow. Not long after, he heard a shrill scream in the dull and chaotic sound of the waves: "Ah! Help! Shark! Shark!"
