Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 186
After leaving the coast, the nets were not lowered immediately, because the rain would cause great obstacles to the fishing boats.

It will greatly reduce the power, which will not only slow down the forward speed of the fishing boat, but also consume a lot of diesel oil.

Therefore, in places that are not suitable for fishing, everyone will not choose to cast the net, because every time the net is cast, it means that dozens of dollars in gas fees will be lost.

Of course, if it’s purely for playing, then there’s no problem with getting off the net anywhere, and there will definitely be no air force, because there are actually a lot of creatures in the ocean, but if you go off the net casually, the biggest possibility is that there will be a lot of shrimp soldiers and crabs in your head. There is no value in going back.

"Anchor, where are we going now? Are we going to go fishing in the high seas?",

"I don't look like I remember going fishing on the high seas, as if I need to get a certificate."

"Probably not. Usually, large fishing boats go out to fish on the high seas. They are too small at this time."

"Is this fishing boat still small? It's more than 30 meters long."

"Why did the anchor switch back to your live broadcast? I want to watch Miss Sister's live broadcast."

"That's right, that's right, we want to watch Miss Sister's live broadcast, so go and have a rest, it's been too hard."

Li Xiao curled her lips when she saw the barrage, good guy, it is false to say that I have worked so hard to let me rest, but it is true that I want to see my cousin.

Li Xiao coughed lightly and told the audience about today's destination.

There was an uproar in the live broadcast room
"No, isn't that place the junction of the three countries? Wouldn't it be too dangerous?"

"How can there be any danger? There are so many patrol boats on the border of the Han Kingdom, are we still afraid of them??"

"What do we have to worry about fishing in our own country's offshore waters?"

"I often hear that there will be some disputes over there from time to time. Why don't we change places for the anchor?"

"Dispute? I don't want to watch it if there is no dispute. What I like to watch most is when there is a dispute."

"I don't know if there will be a rush? Just think about it and get excited!!"

"Calm down upstairs, guns are banned in our country, what do you want the anchor to use to fight with others, take a camera?"

"Even if something goes wrong, there won't be a fight. At most, it will be a verbal fight."

After chatting for about ten minutes, Li Xiao stopped communicating with the audience in the live broadcast room, and started helping Sanjiu and the others organize their equipment on the boat.

Due to the complicated conditions in the sea area to go out, the tools equipped are much more complicated than the tools on the second uncle's bed.

While helping his cousin to fix the crab cage on the stern, Li Xiao introduced to the live broadcast room
"These cages are specially used for catching crabs. You can see that their ropes are so long that they can be placed directly on the seabed."

"Of course, this is just a crab pot for offshore use. If you want to go out to catch crabs in the ocean, then the spool may be several times larger than this."

As he spoke, he patted the spool that was twice as thick as his own waist behind the crab pot. The thread on it was tens of meters long, more than enough for shallow waters.

This time, there were three other fishing boats that went to sea with Uncle San, all of whom were fishermen who were familiar with Uncle San.

After all, the sea area to go to has certain disputes, so it is still necessary to form cliques in the past. After all, something really went wrong, and the people on four ships must be more noisy than those on one ship.

"Now it is reported that the sea condition is northeasterly level 18, and the temperature is [-] degrees. There is no obvious cyclone change in the nearby sea area, and we can continue to move forward."

"Received on 02"

"Received on 03"

"Received on 04th," the third uncle pressed the intercom and said.

Except for the leading fishing boat No. 01, which is a large fishing boat with a full length of 40 meters, the other fishing boats are all small in size of 30 meters. Of course, this is only a relative term.

The third uncle looked at the white clouds in the distance, felt the cool wind blowing around, smiled and said

"The weather is very good today, and the wind direction is also good. It is estimated that we can return home with a full load today."

"Okay, I accept your words, Lao Liang." No. 02 replied.

"I wish everyone good luck too." No. 03 replied.

"Okay, let's keep communicating at any time, and press the walkie-talkie immediately if something happens." Flagship No. 01 said.

The collections are not juxtaposed together. After all, there are winds and waves on the sea, and in order to prevent emergencies, the four ships are arranged in a diamond formation. The largest ship is the flagship and leads the way at the front, while No. 02 and No. 03 are On both sides of the team, Sanjiu's No. 04 ship followed at the tail of the team.

It was really calm today, there was no cross wind or storm, the subtropical weather kept the sea, even in winter, not very cold, and a few white clouds floated across the sky from time to time, which made Li Xiao feel Very comfortable.

The team went farther and farther, and finally arrived at the predetermined fishing position. The long-quiet walkie-talkie rang again

"Okay, we've arrived at the designated place, everyone can start to get out of the way, but you must keep an eye on your radar, and don't cross the border. Keep a distance of more than 10 kilometers from the coastline. If you encounter any situation, report immediately."

"clear."

After all, although it is said to be watching and helping each other, the number of fish schools is certain for fishing. If they gather together to fish in the same place, the harvest will inevitably drop sharply.

Therefore, after arriving at the predetermined target location, the fishing boats in a group will still fish a few kilometers apart. This is already the default rule for everyone. ,

And everyone's goals will try to choose different ones, so that there won't be too many conflicts.

Li Xiao pointed the camera at the surface of the sea, and there were white figures passing by under the deep blue sea, which were the schools of fish passing by in groups.

It is indeed a place where ocean currents converge. There are enough microorganisms and small fish and shrimps, so it is enough to attract enough predators.

However, these clever predators do not leave immediately after a full meal.

Most marine organisms have the habit of storing energy. They will stay here with this ocean current, and they will start migrating when the direction of the ocean current changes.

Therefore, many fishing boats do not arrive at the same destination for fishing every time they go to sea, because the things that can be caught at each time point are completely different.

Like the sea area under your feet, the ocean currents will only gather here in winter and only in winter. You can fish for a long time in just 4 months. Fishing here at other times will not yield much.

The second uncle's boat did not continue to start trawling operations like the others. He came here this time mainly to catch a kind of long-legged crab that is abundant here.

The offshore crab resources are actually quite rich. The most common ones are the three-spot crab and the orchid crab, but these two usually only live in shallow waters above 20 meters deep.

The target of the third uncle coming out this time is a crab called the Asian cherry blossom long-legged crab.

The main reason why the income of the third uncle’s family is not stable is because the third uncle is too obsessed with catching this kind of long-legged crab, and the difficulty of catching this kind of long-legged crab is actually very high, so every time I go to sea, it is like drawing a lottery.

If you are lucky and have a lot of harvest, then the harvest this time can be worth half a year.

However, if you are unlucky, you will almost lose your money, and there will be no capital preservation or small losses.

Of course, the third uncle's behavior has been condemned by countless people, but it's a pity that he still doesn't change his mind, and there's nothing he can do about it.

Li Xiao looked at the expectant face, the third uncle who was lowering the crab cage, and sighed secretly in his heart.

Forget it, I've tried for most of my life, and it's not bad for a few times. Anyway, I will bring up the live broadcast in the future, and the environment of my cousin and cousin should be better.

A crab cage more than ten meters long was slowly put into the seawater 3 and then happily said to Li Xiao who was still live broadcasting

"It will definitely work this time. I have studied it. The flow of this ocean current happens to flow from the deep sea port of Sakura Country. According to the habits of those cherry blossom long-legged crabs, they will follow their prey to migrate towards the ocean current. It is absolutely true. of."

Li Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth, but it's not good to be a junior, slapping him in the face in front of tens of thousands of spectators.

As a junior, he has gone to sea with his third uncle not once or twice, and he has heard similar words many times.

In fact, the third uncle is now like a gambler who has lost his eyes, and he doesn't want to leave the gambling table at all.

An unexpected bumper harvest when he was young made him famous in the whole village and even the whole Yangjiang City.

When mentioning him back then, others would follow up

"Are you talking about the kid who scooped up a big boat of cherry blossom long-legged crabs at once? It's awesome, it's amazing."

The praise of the crowd and the pleasure of getting rich overnight made the third uncle, who was only in his early 20s, a little lost himself.

After that time, he no longer looked down on ordinary trawling. After all, he thought that as long as he succeeded once, his profit would be dozens of times that of ordinary trawling.

One time, two times, three times, the constant failures appeared in the hands of the third uncle, and he began to constantly shift the fishing location, but this approach had little effect.

I don't know if it was luck or it was really calculated by the third uncle. I did catch this kind of cherry blossom long-legged crab several times later.

Although the harvest is far less than the first time, but even so, the income is much higher than normal trawling.

With the successful case, Sanjiu became more fascinated with fishing this kind of cherry blossom long-leg crab.

He even went to Sakura Country alone to ask local fishermen how to hunt this cherry blossom long-legged crab.

Later, I bought a set of high-priced crab-replenishing equipment. The most important thing is that this equipment was purchased with a loan.

He once heard from his mother that the loan has not even been repaid, so that his 19-year-old cousin still wears a patched coat at home.

Li Xiao is actually a little angry with himself as the third uncle, he has been completely addicted to his own world and cannot extricate himself.

No wonder many people say that they are most afraid of becoming famous when they are young, and they are most afraid of making a lot of quick money when they are young.

Because he has the experience of making quick money, he doesn't look down on other jobs that make money slowly.

After all, if you can earn thousands of dollars by working for one or two hours a night, why would you want to continue to work hard for a job that only costs thousands of dollars a month?

While showing the surrounding scenery to the audience in the live broadcast room, Li Xiao began to set up fishing rods on the fishing boat.

Rather than saying that I came to fish this afternoon, it is better to say that it is actually used for sea fishing.

Li Xiao didn't have any expectations for this fishing at all, after all, the third uncle had failed too many times.

At this time, many viewers in the live broadcast room asked doubtfully
"Hey, why doesn't the anchor need to sail the trawl today, just wait here?"

"Isn't the class upstairs serious? Didn't the third uncle of the anchor say that this time he came out to make up for the crabs?"

"What's the difference between crabs and fishing? Shouldn't they all be dragged away? Increase the fishing area, and the harvest will be bigger!"

While arranging the fishing rod in his hand, Li Xiao explained

"Normal fishing is to cast a wide net, but the crab is different. Its sea area is relatively deep, and it likes to move and hunt on the seabed. Generally speaking, it is necessary to put down the crab pot quietly and put enough bait in it. , and then just wait quietly for them to take the bait."

As soon as the words fell, Li Xiao had already hung a finger-long small trash fish on the fishhook, and after a beautiful spin, the small trash fish fell into the water, and kept flopping in the water.

"The anchor is too cruel, to use live fish as bait."

"You don't think it's cruel to use earthworms as bait, but how can it be cruel to use small miscellaneous fish as bait?"

"After all, the fish are of different sizes. When fishing in the sea, your bait is too small, and the sea fish below don't even want to take a second look."

"The anchor's sea fishing is too unskilled. We all use fake bait and rely on superb lure skills to catch the fish."

"There is no such thing as technology or technology. It is technology to be able to catch fish."

"The seaside lures look down on fishing in nesting platforms, the fishing in nesting platforms look down on fishing in reservoirs, and the fishing in reservoirs look down on fishing in ponds."

"Those who look down on the host are all newcomers, aren't the previous slaps in the face painful enough?"

"One thing to say, fishing for shrimp and octopus is completely different from fishing, not to mention that it is still fishing for big fish."

There was a smile on the corner of Li Xiao's mouth, but his eyes were not fixed on the float.

After all, the live fishing is only for the viewers in the live broadcast room. Of course, it is the best to be able to catch fish. If you can’t catch fish, you have to chat with everyone, so he pays more attention to watching the barrage in the live broadcast room.

While chatting, he controlled the drone in the sky to bring different views to the audience, but soon he put his mind back on the fishing rod in his hand.

Because he could clearly feel that the pulling force of the fishing rod in his hand had obviously increased.

Although the small miscellaneous fish that was thrown down just now was not dead and would keep thumping in the water, but with his size, he couldn't make such a pulling force at all. Obviously something had already bit the small fish.

He quickly began to shake the fishing rod in his hand lightly, and slowly retracted the reel in his hand, but the retraction was very slight.

The reason why he did this was not to pull the fish up as soon as possible, but to create the illusion that the little fish was struggling.

When the prey finds that the food in its mouth is trying to escape, it will bite desperately and try to pull the food into the mouth.

It will make the prey bite the hook completely. After pulling for half a minute, Li Xiao felt the fishing rod in his hand sink suddenly. He knew that the prey should have bitten the hook, and the hook caused damage to the prey's mouth. Woke up.

At this time, Li Xiao didn't use all his strength to fight against this prey, because the system's [Shrimp Fishing Proficiency] allowed him to roughly estimate that the fish biting the hook weighed about 10 catties and had quite a lot of strength.

When facing big fish, especially such relatively strong fish, they should not rush to recover the reel after they take the bait, but should put the fishing line longer and engage in a pull battle with the opponent.

After all, the stamina of normal-sized fish will never be as strong as that of humans.

The audience in the live broadcast room stopped discussing in an instant, because the discussion was meaningless.

"I don't care if I see it or not. I'll just say that the anchor's fishing skills are awesome."

"Strong is really strong. It took only a few minutes to catch the fish in the past."

"Good guy, I'm really a good guy. Look at the curvature of the fishing rod. The fish below are not small."

"Based on my many years of fishing experience, the anchor's fish is at least 10 catties or even bigger. After all, I have never fished in the sea. I have only fished in diving reservoirs."

"I'm sorry, I was the one who said that my dog ​​sees people as inferior or uses live bait to be better. I apologize to the host."

"The one upstairs dared to act, and didn't disgrace our Luya!!"

"Why are the anchors constantly releasing money, shouldn't they be pulling the fish out?"

"The anchor wants to exhaust the physical strength of the fish, so that it is not easy to unhook."

The wrestling between man and fish didn't last long. After all, it was just a small fish weighing about 10 kilograms. In the hands of an adult man like Li Xiao, it couldn't cause much trouble at all.

Feeling that the opponent's strength began to weaken, Li Xiao smiled, but he didn't show off in the live broadcast room proudly.

After all, the fish hadn't come up yet, if it got off the hook, it would be ridiculous, he was a very cautious person.

Slowly rewind the line reel, and the hook also shrinks with the line reel, pulling the fish towards the fishing boat.

A silver-white sea fish was finally pulled above the water surface by Li Xiao, but now the fish is still some distance away from the fishing boat, and it is still struggling on the surface of the water, trying to escape, but Li Xiao is not impatient, after all, impatient can not eat hot Tofu couldn't catch a big fish either. Once the opponent showed signs of struggling, he immediately let go of the spool and let him continue swimming. He reeled and released the line several times, completely making this cute little guy give up struggling.

Seeing that the other party had no strength, Li Xiao pulled the other party out of the sea in one go.

The silver-white fish was as long as an arm, its fins were black, and its back was dotted with blue spots. He immediately recognized what kind of fish it was.

The silver-white fish drew a graceful arc in the air, and fell onto the deck of the boat following Li Xiao's pull.

The few people who were busy with their own work were immediately attracted by the crackling sound from the deck.

Of course, they wouldn't think that Li Xiao was doing something ulterior on the boat, after all, they were too familiar with this voice.

This was the sound of fish tails slapping the deck, and several people were taken aback. They saw Li Xiao setting up the fishing rod, and no one expected that the fish would be hooked so soon.

The cousin looked at the guy flopping on the splint, and couldn't help touching his chin. Could it be that the fish near this sea area are particularly stupid?
Otherwise, how could my cousin catch such a big fish so quickly?

To make a living at sea, he clearly understands the difficulty of sea fishing. It is not difficult to catch fish, but it is very difficult to catch fish so quickly.
