Chapter 632 Crabs
If it weren't for the distance from Huaguo, it would be too far away.

The crew all wanted to take some fresh ones home.

There is no way, the snow crabs that are alive in China are all transported by plane. As for the fishing boats, let's wash and sleep.

You know, the price of live snow crabs is much higher than the price of quick-frozen snow crabs, but due to various reasons, it is rare to see live snow crabs in Huaguo.

Even if you see it occasionally, the price has reached an outrageous price.

Because Huaguo itself does not have snow crabs, all snow crabs are imported. There is only one way for those living snow crabs to be transported to Huaguo, and that is by air.

Think about it, if a crab travels thousands of miles by plane and goes to Huaguo, it's no wonder the price is so cheap!

Ye Yuan doesn't know what the crew members are thinking at this moment, he is watching the situation on the bottom of the sea with his perception.

Perception penetrates into the seabed, and it can be seen that within a range of more than ten square kilometers around Yushui, the seabed is full of snow crabs.

Ye Yuan used his perception to look at the densely packed crab swarm on the bottom of the sea, and secretly felt emotional in his heart.

The ocean is really too vast and too rich.

Don't say that you can catch all the snow crabs here.

Even if 1/20 is caught by himself, his Yushui should be about to explode.

He knew that there were more crabs in the Bering Sea, but he didn't expect so many.

And he believes that the large crab group he sees now is not all of the Bering Sea.

At this moment, the crab group is not standing still, but is migrating in one direction.

The crab group is like an army, led by some leading crabs, marching in a certain direction in an orderly manner.

It's just because the population is too large, the speed of advancement is quite slow.

Although the speed is slow, the scene of watching hundreds of thousands or even millions of snow crabs acting collectively is still very shocking.

Not to mention the crew, even Ye Yuan saw it for the first time.

Ye Yuan was admiring the magnificent scene of the snow crab army advancing.

While commanding the crew, all the crab pots on the ship were lowered in the direction of the crab group.

Ye Yuan's fishing boat is not a professional tireless boat, so the number of crab cages is far from the scale of others.

But it's not important, who let Yushui have a hanger like Ye Yuan?
The crab pots are arranged in a straight line along the direction of the crab group.

A crab pot will be put down every few hundred meters.

When all the crab pots on the ship were put into the sea, Yushui made a bend on the sea surface and returned to the position of the first crab pot.

Ye Yuan uses his perception to check the direction of the crab group at any time, so as to make fine adjustments at any time.

The bottom of the sea, where the snow crab swarm passed, could not be said to be barren like locusts passing through, but it was not much stronger.

In the area where the crab swarm passed, almost all fish, shrimps, and shellfish were eaten up.

Especially the snails and mussels that snow crabs love most, none of them will be left behind.

At this moment, Snow Crab's vanguard has passed Ye Yuan's first crab cage.

Because there are all kinds of delicacies in the crab cage, it is absolutely not to be missed for greedy snow crabs.

Seeing this situation, Ye Yuan gave the order to uncage without hesitation.

If you switch to those professional crab boats.

Ye Yuan's approach seemed ridiculous to them.

It takes at least one night for people to put down the crab cages before starting to raise the cages.

But Ye Yuan was fine, he just put down all the crab pots, and then came back to open them.

If such an approach is seen by a professional crabber, he will definitely laugh at him for not knowing how to catch crabs at all.

But who is Ye Yuan?Has the bonus of perception buff.

It can be said that when it comes to crabbing, no one will be his opponent.

Facing Ye Yuan's order to lift the cage, the crew used iron hooks to lift up the floating ball floating on the sea to position the crab cage.

Then use the crane to hoist the crab cage back to the fishing boat.

The overall shape of the crab pot resembles a low tent.

Many people think that the whole body of the crab pot is made of metal, which is wrong.

The crab pot is made of metal as the skeleton, but its outside is wrapped by a layer of tough net.

The crab pots on Ye Yuan's fishing boat are mostly 2 meters in diameter.

The average crab cage is only 1 meter in diameter.

The reason why Ye Yuan's crab cage is so big is because Ye Yuan has enough confidence in himself.

That's why we ordered such a batch of oversized crab cages that are completely unreasonable.

When placed flat on the seabed, it looks like a netted 'funnel'.

At the bottom of the funnel, there is a hole through which crabs get into the crab pot to eat.

This design is because it is difficult for crabs to crawl out from the inside after they crawl in from the outside.

As the crab cage returned to the Yushui, a large cage full of snow crabs appeared in the sight of the crew.

"I'm going, the cage exploded?"

Ma Hua was the first to shout, and then all the crew members on board cheered.

No wonder they are like this, just judging from the number of snow crabs in this cage, it looks like 300-400 catties.

This is just a crab cage, and there are 20 crab cages in the entire Yushui.

If every crab pot can meet this standard, what number will 20 crab pots reach?
Based on the calculation of 350 catties per cage, 20 cages are 7000 catties, or 3.5 tons.

In this way, there is no reason for the crew not to be excited.

"Hurry up! Move quickly, put the crab cage back in place immediately!"

Ye Yuan clapped his hands, urging the crew to work.

He is very clear that these are just the vanguard of the huge crab group, bringing them a little gain.

Looking at the dense crowd of crabs stretching out for more than ten nautical miles behind him.

Ye Yuan knew that he couldn't do it this time whether he wanted to be arrested or not.

Don't let it go, Ye Yuan still has a task of catching 300 tons of fish.

The frenzied fishing along the way before, although the results were remarkable, only completed the task of less than 100 tons for him.

Since he met such a huge group of crabs today, he has no reason to let them go.

The crew thought that this was the end, and they were satisfied with the current harvest, but who would have thought that this was just the beginning of their busy catching.

As the snow crab is released from the crab cage.

Ma Hua, You Zhiyong and others cooperated with Pei Fei to re-hung the bait into the crab pot again, and then used the crane to put the crab pot back into the sea again.

The rest of the crew were not idle either, and during the time when a few people put the crab cages.

Quickly pack the snow crabs on the deck into plastic baskets and send them to the cabin.

After doing all this, the fishing boat rushed to the location of the second crab pot non-stop.

"Everyone will start working without sleep and rest. If anyone's body can't bear it, you must speak up, you know?"
