Chapter 9: Full of Fish
After discovering this, he turned off the engine without any hesitation.

Then he placed the hook and basket in front of him, picked up a shrimp from the live cabin with one hand, and hooked the hook on the shrimp gun. With this hooking method, the shrimp will not die immediately, and it will still be alive and kicking if thrown into the sea. Attract fish's attention.

He moved very quickly, hooking the shrimp and throwing the hooked bait into the sea.

The fishing boat slowly floats forward with the current, straightening the main line. In this way, the fishhook will not be tangled together, and it can cover the largest area and catch more fish at the same time.

In order to catch more fish, Bailang used all his strength this time and kept lowering the hook into the sea.

Finally, more than two hours later, he dropped all 3000 hooks into the sea. At this time, he was already more than 6000 meters away from where he dropped the first hook.

"I hope the harvest I'm waiting for won't disappoint me."

Bailang wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although it was windy on the sea, the wind was very strong, and the temperature was not high, he was still sweating profusely after getting busy.

The most important thing is that he felt that his hands were beginning to cramp uncontrollably.

But when he thought about the large school of white pomfret under the water, he felt that it was all worth it.

His rows of 1000 hooks on six 3000-meter main lines were all placed in this large school of white pomfret just now. Now those live shrimps are definitely the most attractive thing in the world to these fish. Maybe at this time There are already many fish hanging on the hooks.

After resting for a while, Bailang drank some water and ate a piece of bread to replenish his energy.

Then he started the fishing boat again and drove straight to the buoy where he dropped the first hook, fished it out and started pulling the first main line.

"Yes! It feels like I've been hit a lot down there!"

As soon as Bailang pulled the main line, he knew that many fish had been hooked on this line.

Because he could feel that the fish under the water were struggling very hard and were very heavy at the same time. This was definitely not a feeling that one or two fish could have, but the pulling force produced by many fish all running rampant on this main line.

Bailang slowly retracted the main line. Soon, the sub-line with the first hook was exposed out of the water and stretched tightly.

Seeing this, he knew that the first hook had hit the fish.

Bailang exerted force on his hands and at the same time carefully pulled the sub-thread in his hand, and then slowly retracted it bit by bit.

After a while, a large white pomfret appeared in front of him.

"Look at this head, it weighs almost three kilograms."

Bailang couldn't help but scream. The prompt information showed that the average weight of this group of fish was more than two kilograms, and the first fish weighed more than three kilograms. It was so exciting.

He took a deep breath and knew that he could never pull it out forcefully at this time. For such a big fish in the sea, if he struggled hard and twisted the thread, it would probably break the fish.

Bailang picked up the dip net that was already prepared at his feet and stretched it into the sea water. He pulled the sub-line with one hand to bring the fish over, and held the dip net to cover the fish's head with the other hand. At the same time, he loosened the Opening the sub-line pulled in the hand, the first white pomfret of the day fell into the bag successfully.

After picking up the first fish, he picked up the scissors and cut off the thread, then threw the fish into the cabin.

The fish that had just come out of the water was full of energy, or perhaps it had just realized that it had become someone else's meal, and began to struggle desperately. The fish tail swung around and the fish head hit everywhere, making crackling sounds.

At this time, in Bai Lang's eyes, this was not the sound of a fish struggling at all, but the sound of banknotes swinging!
You must know that among marine fish, white pomfret is considered a relatively rare fish, especially wild white pomfret. The bigger it is, the more valuable it is.

Generally speaking, items under one catty can be sold for 81 catties, items between one to two catties can be sold for eighty to one hundred, and items over three catties have a unit price of more than one hundred and two.

By analogy, the white pomfret I caught was very big, weighing more than three kilograms, which meant that this fish could be sold for at least three, four hundred yuan.And this is just the fish he caught in the first row of hooks he just dropped. He just dropped a total of 400 row hooks in this school of fish. Now he can't imagine how many fish he can catch in the future.

At the beginning, Bailang was very cautious, but slowly his movements became faster and faster.

Because there are so many fish hooked, almost every few fish hooks will hit a fish, and these white pomfret are not small in size.

No matter what he does, if he does it too much, it will turn into mechanical labor. Slowly, his movements will become more and more rough.

At the back, his movements became more forceful, and he cut off the threads of the white pomfrets and threw them into the boat.

In the beginning, in order to ensure that these fish could be returned to the dock alive, his live chamber oxygenator was always on.

But half an hour later, he found that this method was useless because there were too many fish pulled up. Now the living cabin was full of fish, there was no water, and the oxygen machine was of no use at all.

In the end, the live cabin was full, and there was really no room for the fish, so he simply piled them on the deck.

Originally, to keep the fish fresh, he should have prepared some foam boxes and crushed ice before going out to sea, but now the conditions were limited and he couldn't control that much. As long as he could pull all the fish back, that would be enough.

Nearly two hours later, Bailang let out a heavy breath and finally collected all the rows of hooks.

Now he felt that his waist was too tired to straighten up.

"I'll go, I'm exhausted!" He moved his body.

There are six 1000-meter rows of hooks, each with [-] hooks. Almost every three or four hooks can catch a fish, and most of the fish weigh about two or three kilograms.

As you can imagine, this is a huge amount of labor.

If Bailang's body hadn't been strengthened to a certain extent, most people wouldn't be able to bear this kind of workload.

"It seems that having too many fish is also a worry. This may be the legendary feeling of being tired and happy at the same time."

Bailang stood up and beat his waist, then lowered his head and saw that his boat was already filled with white pomfret.

The living cabin was already full, and there was almost no place to put one's feet on the other decks. They were all full of fish.

"Haha, this should be what all fishermen dream of, a warehouse full of fish!" Bailang laughed.

A golden finger that can track fish schools is like picking up money in the sea. As long as you find the fish school and put the hook into the fish nest, it is difficult to catch fish.

“We must seize the time to sell and catch these fish.”

Bailang looked at the time and knew he had to hurry back to the town dock to get rid of these fish.

For fishermen, no matter what kind of fish, shrimp or crab, they are best sold when they are fresh, and the fresher the fish, the higher the price.

Now these white pomfrets on his boat can't even touch the water, and will soon lose their activity, so they must be dealt with as soon as possible.

Bailang turned the boat around and rushed back. At the same time, he took out his mobile phone. The first thing he thought of now was Tang Dahai. The two of them had a pleasant cooperation yesterday in selling grouper, and the price given by the other party was also relatively fair.

Today, he planned to see if the other party was interested in these white pomfrets.
