Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1256: Only when the broken jar is broken can the fish be caught!
"Correct!"

"Is there any need to rush this matter?"

"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, let's just prepare it slowly!"

Lei Dayou looked at the rod in front of him which was motionless, knowing that no fish had taken the bait. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, then took out his lighter, lit it and took a puff.

To be honest, I was a little anxious in my heart, but there was really no use getting anxious about things like this.

I've been out at sea for several hours today and haven't caught a single fish. This is really hard to accept.

"Uncle Shizhu and Uncle Dayou. Why do you all seem a little anxious?"

"We all want to catch fish and make money when we go out to sea, but sometimes we just can't catch any fish and there's no better way."

"They have been fishing for many days in a row. How many days have they been doing this?"

"When did we stop catching fish?"

"It's normal even if we don't catch any fish all day."

Zhao Dahai was very relaxed. Recently, he, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou had caught countless fish. It was normal that they didn't catch any fish today.

"Zhao Dahai."

"I know what you said is true, that's what it is, but I still want to catch fish no matter what."

Zhong Shizhu frowned.

He was very clear about what Zhao Dahai said, but reason is reason, and he really wanted to catch the fish.

"what!"

"Uncle Shizhu."

"Who doesn't want to go fishing? We can make money if we catch fish, especially if we can catch fish all day, we can make a lot of money."

"Let's not talk about the thousands of kilograms of grouper we caught in one day. Just take the black porgy we caught yesterday. That's a lot of money."

Zhao Dahai burst into laughter.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou were very anxious while fishing. In the final analysis, they just wanted to catch fish and make money. I had the same idea.

Especially with your own speedboat, you can catch a lot of fish every day. If you don’t catch any fish in one day, the loss will be very heavy.

Yesterday, the four of us, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou and I, caught some black bream weighing more than 6,000 kilograms, and all of them were big black bream weighing only three or four kilograms.

These black sea bream can make a lot of money after being sold.

If you don't catch any fish in a day, it means you lose so much money.

How could I not care? However, I have been fishing for a longer time and have more experience. I know that fish in the sea are like this. Sometimes they bite the hook like crazy, and sometimes there is no movement at all.

Zhao Dahai was fishing while talking to Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou. He did not use the rod on the electric winch gun mount but a hand-held spinning wheel rod.

The fish in the sea are not biting too much now, so it is not easy to catch fish. At this time, a hand-cranked spinning reel is more reliable, and it is more convenient and accurate to operate.

Zhao Dahai tried for about half an hour and then put down the rod.

"It looks like not only the black sea bream aren't opening their mouths much today, but even the groupers on the sea floor aren't opening their mouths much either."

Zhao Dahai shook his head.

Of course, you want to catch a fish, and you have just tried everything, but there is a real possibility that the fish will not bite today.

"What should we do now? Should we continue to move to another place?"

When Liu Bin saw that Zhao Dahai couldn’t catch any fish, he knew that he couldn’t catch any fish either, so he simply gave up.

Zhao Dahai nodded.

It’s the same when fishing for grouper or even all fish. If you can catch fish in one place, you will keep fishing there until you can’t catch any more. If you can’t catch fish in one place, you have to change to another place.

If you can't catch fish in this place now, or if the fish don't bite, then you have to go to another place.

How many places do you have to change in a day to catch fish?
I really don’t know about this!

When Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou put away their fishing rods, he immediately drove away in the speedboat to the next fishing spot.

One o'clock at noon.

The sun is very hot, just like a burning furnace, which is unbearable.

"Can you fish here? Why are there so many speedboats here?"

Lei Dayou looked left and right and saw seven or eight speedboats parked on a small piece of sea, each speedboat was less than fifty meters away.

Is it really possible that there is no way to catch any fish today?

Lei Dayou is really not sure whether he can catch any fish today.

I tried several different fishing spots for black porgy but still couldn't catch any. I also tried several different fishing spots near rocks but still couldn't catch any.

Zhao Dahai took some of his people out to sea to fish. There were times when they couldn't catch any fish, but they were very rare, especially like today, when they couldn't catch any fish. This situation had never happened before.

Aren’t there any fish in the sea?

There can’t be no fish in the sea!

There is definitely fish on the artificial island reef, and there are a lot of fish. If you can't catch them, it means the fish are just not biting today.

Zhao Dahai is very good at finding fish and fishing, but when faced with something like this, he is completely helpless.

"Zhao Dahai."

"Why did you choose a place like this? Does it mean that the more speedboats there are, the more fish you can catch here? But the people on my speedboats don't look like they can't catch any fish. They are all lazy and don't have the energy to talk or smile."

Zhong Shizhu knew very well that Zhao Dahai, like himself, wanted to catch fish, and wanted to catch a lot of fish. So he chose a place because he thought that this place could catch fish.

But now there are a lot of speedboats here. All crowded in one place, which actually affects fishing.

It’s not that Zhao Dahai doesn’t fish in places like this, but if he has a choice, he generally won’t fish in places where there are too many speedboats.

The artificial island reef is very large, and you can always find a place without people and speedboats. However, there are so many speedboats in the place where Zhao Dahai is now. It is obvious that he deliberately chose such a place.

If these speedboats around could catch fish, they would be very excited, with smiles on their faces and even talking very loudly, so you can't tell at all. Although some speedboats are fishing, the people on them are smoking. Some people simply sit on the deck of the speedboat, looking lazy and not wanting to move at all. They don't look like people who have caught fish at all.

There are so many express deliveries around but you can't catch any fish in this place. I really can't understand why Zhao Dahai chose such a place.

Zhao Dahai slowly looked at the speedboat and the fish finder, selected a place, stopped, and called Liu Bin to lower the top-current motor on the bow of the speedboat. There was a little water flow on the sea, but it stabilized immediately and did not move.

"It's probably not possible for us to catch fish today, or it's very difficult. I thought why don't we just go for broke and try to see if we can catch any fish in one place with so many people."

Zhao Dahai looked at Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou half jokingly and half seriously.

There is definitely 100% fish in the sea. If you can't catch any, it's really because the fish won't bite. Although you are powerful, you are not the Dragon King of the Sea after all, and there is really nothing you can do to deal with these fish.

"what?"

"Will this be useful? It won't do any good, will it?"

Liu Bin was even more confused and had no idea what Zhao Dahai meant by this.

"There are many reasons why the fish in the sea don't bite, the most important of which is definitely the unsuitable tides and currents, or the unsuitable weather, etc."

"In a situation like this, no matter what method you use, you won't be able to catch any fish."

Zhao Dahai started to prepare the rod as he spoke.

When Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou saw this, they knew that this must be the place for fishing. Although they didn't know what was going on, they immediately prepared the rods together.

"When the fish don't bite, there's really no good way to deal with it. If there is a way, it's that a lot of people are crowded together to fish, and everyone keeps hitting the bottom and hanging on to the bottom."

Zhao Dahai looked at the fish finder and told Zhong Shizhu, Lei Dayou and Liu Bin that the water depth here was 130 meters, and to let out the line directly to 125 meters and stop.

"what?"

"Isn't it harder to catch fish when there are too many people? The fish in the sea are frightened, how could they possibly bite the hook?"

Zhong Shizhu prepared the rod, hooked a big octopus on it, threw it into the sea, and started to let out the line.

Lei Dayou and Liu Bin quickly prepared the rods, one hung a crab on it, and the other one thought about it and hung a big live shrimp on it. They put them all into the sea and turned on the reels to let out the lines.

"Isn't that the case? With so many people fishing here, the noise is really too loud. It's even more impossible for the fish in the sea to bite, right?"

While Lei Dayou was waiting for the line to be released to 125 meters, he asked Zhao Dahai about this matter out of curiosity.

"It is true in general. As long as there are a lot of people fishing in one place, even if you can't catch any fish, too many people hitting the bottom, too many people hanging on the bottom, breaking the line, etc., the groupers in the sea will be scared and will be less likely to bite the hook."

Zhao Dahai nodded and said that this was indeed the case, but this was only the case under normal circumstances.

The black porgy and grouper in the sea didn't bite today. I changed seven or eight fishing spots but couldn't catch any fish.

Zhao Dahai kept changing fishing spots and thinking non-stop, and finally came up with a solution, but he didn't know if this method was really useful. He had to try it to see if he could catch fish.

Zhao Dahai pointed at the speedboats around and told Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou that this place was a very good fishing spot, with many speedboats gathered. It seemed that none of these speedboats caught any fish, but they must have tried many times.

“Fish and humans are actually the same.”

"The noise is too loud, the movement is too loud, it might scare people, but it might also make people very angry and furious."

"Might attack anything that intrudes on their territory."

"In this case, we might have a chance to catch fish!"

Zhao Dahai looked at the pole in his hand. In just a short while, the pole had been extended to almost a hundred meters.

"what?"

"Does this mean that the fish got angry and then took the bait?"

Zhong Shizhu widened his eyes, finding it unbelievable and unable to believe what Zhao Dahai said.

"Correct!"

"It's possible!"

"But there's really no way to be sure whether it will be like this."

"We have to give it a try to see what's going on and whether we can really catch fish."

"Didn't I just say that? Anyway, we have tried so many fishing spots in other places and still can't catch any fish. Now we just have to give it a try and see if this method works."

What Zhao Dahai just said about a broken jar being broken was really not all a joke.

Now no other method can catch fish. I have changed so many fishing spots and tried so many techniques but there is still no movement. I can only try this method again. If I can catch fish, then I will catch it. If I can't catch fish, then forget it.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou thought about it and nodded. There was no better way now, so they might as well give it a try to see if it worked. If it worked, they could go fishing. If not, then this was really the only way they could do.

Zhao Dahai let out the line to 125 meters, paused for a moment, waited for a while when there was no movement, then pulled it up and down two or three times, each time with an interval of three minutes, and each time the amplitude of the pull was larger than the last.

Zhao Dahai shook his head and glanced at Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou. Like himself, there was no movement from the three of them and no fish took the bait.

Could it be that I guessed wrong?
Even if there are so many people and so many speedboats fishing in this place, will the fish in the sea remain indifferent?
If this is really the case, there is really no hope today.

Zhao Dahai was just about to let out the line to hit the bottom when he suddenly saw the fishing rod very close in front of him. He pulled it down hard and it bent sharply in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Dahai was not mentally prepared at all.

I had always thought that there would be no fish biting the hook today, but suddenly this happened and I was startled, but I reacted very quickly.

If you don't push the electric reel to reel in immediately and a big fish is hooked, the speed and power will not be enough when the electric reel just starts to rotate. The most important thing is to pull it up hard and don't let the hooked fish drill down.

Zhao Dahai held the rod with both hands and pulled it upwards with all his strength. The fish on the hook was very big and the pulling force was very strong, so his face suddenly turned red.
