Starting to go to the sea: I really didn’t want to be a sea king

After sending off the fishery administration ship, Minquanyu 01688 restarted and soon reached the high seas.

Zhang Hongtao washed the deck and slipped into the captain's room to find Chu Yang to smoke and chat.

"Ayang, guess how many eagle pomfret were in the net just now?"

Chu Yang held up two fingers, "Two hundred kilograms?"

"Guess again, be bolder."

"Three hundred kilograms?"

"Forget it, I'll tell you directly, 4 baskets can't hold it, at least four hundred and a few dozen kilograms."

The fish on the boat were those large white plastic baskets, and a full basket was almost 100 kilograms.

"So many?"

Chu Yang was slightly surprised, which was beyond his expectations.

More than 400 kilograms, even if the average price per kilogram is 100, that's 40,000 yuan.

Good guy, just the first net, the cost of this trip to the sea was saved, and it was more than enough.

No wonder the faces of several people were full of excitement, who wouldn't be confused by this fishing situation.

"Then cook a big one for dinner and let's try it." Chu Yang ordered immediately.

It is said that the first is pomfret, the second is eagle pomfret and the third is swordfish. This eagle pomfret is the best among pomfret. He wants to try it and see what it tastes like.

"Oh!"

Zhang Hongtao's eyes were smiling. He ran over with a trembling voice, wasn't it just because he had the idea of ​​satisfying his appetite.

Without Chu Yang's order, Sun Qingjun would definitely not agree to eat gray pomfret tonight, most likely he would go after those miscellaneous fish.

Like true sea bream, black sea bream, sea bass, etc., although the taste is not bad, he is tired of eating them.

Sure enough, when he heard that he was going to eat gray pomfret tonight, Sun Qingjun immediately expressed his objection.

"One costs hundreds of dollars!"

Of course, the objection was invalid. Chu Yang never treated his stomach badly.

"Uncle Jun, it's rare to catch such a good fish. It would be wrong if we don't try it ourselves."

"Then... don't eat the big ones. Just pick the ones that weigh 700-800 grams and steam two." Sun Qingjun insisted.

"Okay, that's fine."

Chu Yang compromised.

The boat continued to sail. There were still more than ten nautical miles to the next refresh point. Zhang Hongtao took over the rudder and steered the fishing boat towards the depths of the sea.

Chu Yang was bored, so he took out the fishing rod, tied the line group, hung the bait and threw it into the water.

Then he inserted the fishing rod into the rod holder welded on the edge of the boat, and he could sit by the boat and wait for the fish.

Different from the conventional fishing method, this method of fishing while sailing is called trolling fishing.

As the name suggests, it is a fishing method that drags the fishing gear and bait across the shallow sea water at the speed of the boat to troll the fast-swimming fish on the surface of the sea water.

This method is mainly aimed at ferocious predatory shallow-water fish, such as tuna, shark, swordfish, tuna, bonito, etc.

So Chu Yang chose an electric reel, which saves time and effort.

The fishing rig is also very large, directly using a 20-gauge PE line with a 30-gauge heavy tuna hook. The lead weight alone weighs 5 jin, and a fresh fish piece the size of a palm is hung.

This fishing rig can withstand a pulling force of 200 kilograms, and the hook is as big as a child's palm. The general deep-sea giants are not enough in front of it.

He originally thought that he was idle and had nothing to do, so he tried his luck, but he didn't expect that his luck was really good today. After a while, he heard the sound of the electric reel coming out of the line.

"Hey, I caught a fish."

Chu Yang was immediately excited, and quickly took the fishing rod off the rod seat, put the rod tail on the belt, and bent his right arm to clamp the handle.

This posture is to avoid catching a big fish, and directly pull the fishing rod to collect it.

After lifting his arm twice to let the hook pierce the fish's mouth, Chu Yang pressed the switch of the electric winch.

Ziz~ Ziz~ Ziz~

The reel turned, and the fishing line was pulled out of the sea water little by little.

Chu Yang thought it was a giant at first, but after pulling it for a while and not feeling any pressure, he knew it was not a big deal.

Sure enough, when the fish was pulled two or three meters out of the water, Sun Qingjun, who was lying on the edge of the boat watching the fish, sighed.

"It's a 10-pound smoke tiger."

Smoke tiger, the name in the Quancheng area, is scientifically known as bonito, also known as bonito.

This fish has a sturdy body, spindle-shaped, thin tail peduncle, and a crescent-shaped tail fin. The whole looks like a cannonball. It is a kind of tuna.

But don't think it is expensive. In fact, tuna also has high and low prices. For example, bonito is the cheapest among them. The current market price is less than 20 yuan per kilogram.

This is mainly because this kind of fish is not delicious. As the name suggests, the meat is very tough.

For example, the "Katsuobushi" that is known as the hardest dried fish in the world is made from this kind of fish. Use a plane to plane the dried bonito into thin slices, which is the kind of "wooden fish flower" often eaten in Japanese restaurants.

"Uncle Jun, you are really arrogant. After all, it is still a fish. How can it be worth more than a hundred yuan."

Chu Yang said with a smile without disdain.

Sun Qingjun also laughed when he heard him say that.

Yes, once upon a time, catching a fish worth dozens of yuan could make you happy for half a day, but now fish worth more than a hundred yuan are not worth it."That's all your fault, Ayang. You've made me hungry."

He took the net and scooped up the bonito on board. He removed the gills and cut open the belly skillfully, then hung it upside down with a cotton rope to drain the blood.

He didn't waste the fresh fish entrails. He cut them into small pieces and threw them into the sea to make a nest for Chu Yang.

Chu Yang hung a piece of fish on the hook and threw it back into the sea to lure the next unlucky guy.

"Eat some fruit, Captain, Uncle Sun."

Lin Zijin came over with a plate of cut watermelon.

Chu Yang took a big piece in one hand and ate it with both hands. Sun Qingjun didn't hesitate to show off with a piece of watermelon.

"Eat it yourself. By the way, send the rest to Lao Zhang."

"Yes!"

Lin Zijin nodded.

But she didn't eat it first. Instead, she brought it to Zhang Hongtao first, then took a piece of watermelon and walked back to the deck. She took a small stool and sat by the boat to watch Chu Yang fishing.

I don't know whether to say it's good luck or bad luck. Just after eating a piece of watermelon, the fishing rod moved again.

Chu Yang used the same trick again, pulling the rod to catch the fish, and when he pulled it up, he saw that it was another bonito.

This time it was even bigger, weighing fifteen or sixteen pounds.

"Okay, 200 yuan!" Sun Qingjun laughed.

Chu Yang shrugged, 200 yuan must be enough.

After catching two bonito, Chu Yang's luck seemed to disappear. There was no movement for half an hour, and he was sleepy waiting.

He simply hung up a big lump, threw the fishing rod aside and stopped looking.

At the same time, Zhang Hongtao's voice came from the intercom.

"Ayang, we are almost at our destination."

Chu Yang opened the system map and saw that it was less than one nautical mile away from the next black iron treasure chest refresh point.

"Okay, keep moving at a slow speed, let me observe this sea area."

After saying that, he bent over and pretended to stare at the sea.

It was not until a few minutes later, when the fishing boat entered the treasure chest refresh point, that he stood up.

"How is it, are you feeling it?" Sun Qingjun's face was full of anticipation.

Lin Zijin also stared at her, with a gleam of expectation in her round eyes.

Chu Yang closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes and nodded gently:

"I counted with my fingers, and there must be a lot of goods here."
