My fishing game syncs with reality

Chapter 321 Got the news from the fishing company

There is no rush for career matters, at least I have to start implementing them after I return this time.

In the afternoon, once the puddle became available for fishing, the group took the boat again to collect seafood.

But when he reached the puddle, Gu Nan was disappointed.

After all, the time was too short. There weren't many seafood in the puddle, and nothing was particularly valuable. The most expensive one was a hairy lobster weighing a little over three pounds.

Gu Nan just looked around and then ran off to continue fishing. There were indeed more things in the puddle than in the reef area, but there were also more people in it!
After returning home at night, in addition to cooking the things he and others had caught from the sea, he also contributed the giant eels he had caught earlier.

You know what, watching the conger eel meat sizzling on the charcoal fire is quite appetizing.

If this happened before the 1980s, when fishermen on the coast had little money, they could still catch some river eels or conger eels and grill them to eat.

There is no need to apply oil, the fish will release oil on its own when you grill it raw.

After playing on the island for a day, the fishing boat started again and headed directly to the destination.

However, Gu Nan didn't know the specific situation. When he asked before, both Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao were mysterious.

The boat left early tonight, so everyone found things to do to pass the time without sleeping.

Gu Nan and others were still sitting in the living room drinking tea and chatting, talking about interesting things and work.

"By the way, Brother Wang, what is our goal in going to the high seas this time?" Gu Nan asked.

Seeing that he wanted to know so much, Wang Junhe simply told him.

"It's midnight anyway, so I might as well tell you! Originally, I didn't have any target, so I let the captain figure it out for himself. Let's find a fishing spot near our own country's waters on the high seas and catch more fish."

"But when I got up in the morning, I received some information from a friend who runs a fishing company and learned about the tuna school."

"Their fishing company's fleet is already there. They caught tens of thousands of pounds of tuna last night. He said there were also some bluefin tuna among them."

"So I asked the captain to set off early. We don't expect to catch tens of thousands of pounds of fish, but even if we can catch a little bit, it will be fine."

After hearing this, Gu Nan suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the boat set off as soon as they came back from the water.

Then I envied Wang Junhe's information channels, as others were willing to tell him even the news about such a huge school of tuna.

But it also has something to do with the fact that they are there for entertainment. Even if they go, they will only catch some leftovers, which has little impact on the fishing fleet.

"Then will there be a chance to see those fleets fishing at night?" Ye Jing asked with great interest.

"Then we'll probably have to wait until the morning to see them!" Wang Junhe explained, "When fishing for tuna with a purse seine, it's usually done at night. A large ship uses lights to attract the fish, and then the other small boats in the fleet cast their nets around the large ship to enclose the waters around it, preventing the fish from escaping and catching them all in one go."

"Tsk tsk tsk, tens of thousands of kilograms is considered a small amount at one time. If you're lucky, you could even get hundreds of thousands of kilograms."

"However, the catch is mainly yellowfin and longfin tuna, which are more abundant. Bigeye and bluefin tuna are purely a matter of luck."

After hearing what he said, Gu Nan and the others nodded in agreement.

Bigeye and bluefin have long been overfished. Currently, there are only a few produced in the sea in the domestic market, and most of them are imported.

The fishing boat would arrive at midnight, so Gu Nan and his friends had no plans to go to sleep.

When the fishing boat stopped, the five people, who were originally a little sleepy, suddenly became alert.

In fact, the fishing friends also got the news and no one went to sleep.

After all, if you are lucky, you are very likely to encounter tuna at night, so if not now, when will you fish?

As soon as Gu Nan walked out of the living room, he saw a large fishing boat not too far away, which was brightly lit.

Not only did the big fishing boat have lights on, but it actually had many fish-attracting lights on the bottom of the boat.

The boatmen on Gu Nan's side also took action, lowered the fish-attracting lights on the boat, and then began to help make nests.

The sardines that Gu Nan sent had already been taken out and thawed by them, and they were just right to be used as bait now.

As they quickly cast the bait, a huge chain of nests soon formed under the boat.

Thanks to the food that fell from the sky, a large school of fish immediately gathered under the boat.

Gu Nan then grabbed a five-pound fish, hung it on the hook, and threw it into the water.

The fishing rod was ready on the way and pressed onto the holder.

At this moment, there were only him, Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao at the stern of the left side of the boat, and behind him were An Jun and Ye Jing.

The distance between the two of them is also quite far, this is to maintain the distance as much as possible to avoid the line getting tangled.

As for Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao, although they also had fishing rods, as long as one of the three caught a fish, the other two would reel in the fishing line in time.

Their hope lies in Gu Nan and they have little confidence in their own luck.

As long as Gu Nan catches a good catch, it is equivalent to theirs.

How much does a fish cost? Even the legendary bluefin only costs a million, which is a piece of cake for them!
Of course, that’s the price of Pacific Bluefin.

If you change it to the legendary Atlantic bluefin, the price will be even higher. The fish there are more expensive than those in the Pacific. After all, the quantity is more scarce and they are imported.

The formation of fish nests under the fishing boats began to gradually attract tuna wandering around outside the fishing fleet's nets.

Although they were just some leftovers, the quantity was not bad. Dozens of them gathered in just ten minutes, including various tunas and even two fat bluefin fins.

What kind of tuna you can catch depends on your luck and fate.

After Gu Nan put the hook and bait down, he took over the boatman's task of throwing the bait and picked up the bait and threw it slowly.

The first baits thrown down should have sunk to the bottom. The purpose of these slow-cast baits is not to make nests, but to attract tuna that have not eaten the bait and let them attack the bait on the hook.

The water area is quite deep, with the bottom only about 180 meters. At this moment, a group of big fish are surrounding a large piece of bait on the sand bed.

As for the deep-sea fish that gathered first, they had all dispersed when the tuna arrived.

Only some unlucky and slow-running crabs became their food, and there were still some crab legs left on the sand bed!

Compared to dead things, living things are tuna's favorite.

Although tuna is a human dish, in the sea, it is also one of the overlords of the ocean.

There aren't many marine creatures that can use them as food.

As the bait on the sand bed was almost eaten up, some tuna began to be attracted by the slowly descending bait.

Because of their buoyancy, these baits wiggle back and forth as if they were alive.

Tuna loves moving food the most, so they immediately rushed over.

This is why a lot of bait is needed when fishing for tuna, in order to make them agitated and continue looking for food in the waters.

At this time, the living bait hanging on the hook will attract their attention, and secondly, it can also prolong the time the fish stay.

At this time, there were four or five tunas on Gu Nan's side fighting for the bait he threw.

When the fish in front grabbed one, the ones behind would follow. Soon they found the big fish hanging on the hook. Compared with the sardine, the one hanging on the hook was indeed big.

But when it comes to tuna, it only takes one bite.

At this time, an albacore tuna happened to discover the larger meal, but he had just swallowed a sardine.

The direction was slightly off, but this slight deviation caused it to lose the delicious food in front of it.

Suddenly, a tuna much bigger than it passed it and swallowed the fish on the hook in one gulp.

He closed his mouth and was about to swallow the fish, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his mouth.

He instinctively opened his mouth to spit out the food, but he felt a sharp pain in his mouth again. The foreign object in his mouth pierced deeply into his flesh.

"Bang~"

Driven mad by the sting, it immediately shook its head and tail, and an unlucky tuna just approached was slapped away by its tail.

This tuna migrates on the high seas all year round and has never been caught by anyone, so no one knows what is in its mouth.

It just subconsciously wanted to escape from this painful and panic-stricken place by shaking its head and running away.

The powerful force made it run while pulling the fishing line. The original upward pulling force disappeared, and the stinging pain in its mouth also became much less.

Thinking it was effective, it ran even harder.

"Woooooo~"

On the sea, the fishing line is straight, constantly making this sound of cutting through the sea breeze.

This sound is the favorite of anglers. As long as they hear such a sound, they know that they have caught a big fish.

The one who was fishing now was not Gu Nan, but Wang Junhe.

He and Guo Xiao had already put away their fishing rods, but they were in good condition at night, so they both wanted to try the feel of a big fish. Only after this experience could they sleep better.

Gu Nan didn't care. The fish was very strong when it was hooked. Even if he caught it, he would just let the fish run and wait until it was tired before reeling it in.

It would be the same no matter who goes up at this time. Is it possible to pull it back?
But he was lucky tonight. When he first stabbed the fish, he knew it weighed at least 400 kilograms. With this weight, the possibility of it being yellowfin or bigeye was much smaller, and the possibility of it being bluefin was the highest.

It’s not that the first two types of tuna cannot grow this big, but their numbers are as rare as bluefin tuna.

This is also the reason why Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao are so excited. There is a one in three chance of catching bluefin fins. How can they not be excited?
Even for them, it is not often that they can catch tuna, let alone bluefin.

But it is not difficult for them to fish for bluefin fin fish. They can just go abroad. Unfortunately, they are restricted a lot, not only because of family reasons, but also because they are busy with work.

It is very rare to spare a week, so it is particularly difficult to catch a bluefin.

Ten minutes passed quickly. Even in the middle of winter, Wang Junhe was sweating profusely.

Although he was letting the fish run, he was under a lot of pressure.

Not only should we try to consume the fish's energy as much as possible, but we must also be careful not to let the fish get off the hook while cleaning its gills, which will also cause it to consume its energy very quickly.

Upon seeing this, Guo Xiao immediately took over, but his condition was not much better and he also only lasted a dozen minutes.

Fortunately, they spent about half an hour, and after Gu Nan took over, the first round of tuna outbreak was almost over.

He took over, and the function of the golden fishing rod began to work. In the end, the fish only lasted for more than an hour in his hand before being pulled to the side of the boat.

Wang Junhe saw that it was a bluefin fin and laughed excitedly, "Haha, it's really a bluefin fin. We have ingredients for the banquet this time."

"It has to be you, Anan. I looked around just now and more than ten tunas have been caught. None of them is bluefin, and none of them is bigger than you." Guo Xiao was also happy.

Wang Junhe didn't need to fish for the tuna, and the two of them could split it in half.

This was basically the operation before. If there were more than one fish, they would put the rest in the cold storage and take them out next time they were needed.

The boatmen and anglers nearby were all envious. For anglers, this is a dream fish species.

For the boatmen, these are big dollars. Judging from the size of the fish, you can tell that it is not small. It can be sold for at least hundreds of thousands, which is their income for several years.

Gu Nan didn't know what others were thinking. He smiled and said to Lao Wang and Lao Guo, "Who of you can use the harpoon to kill this fish?"

"Let me do it!" Wang Junhe immediately snatched the harpoon from the boatman.

"Bah, why do you come?" Guo Xiao was also unhappy now.

"I'll grab the harpoon first, I'll give it to you when I catch the next fish."

"No, look at this, if you miss, I'll take the next round."

"Okay, that's it."

A tuna weighing more than 400 pounds recovers faster than the speed at which the fishing rod absorbs energy. After a short rest, its strength has been slightly restored.

It seemed to know that it was about to die, and was unwilling to just surrender. Coupled with the discomfort caused by lack of oxygen, it burst out with its last bit of strength and struggled to swim again.

Gu Nan immediately came to his senses and pulled the fishing rod upwards with force to control the movement of the fish.

Wang Junhe was very confused. What a coincidence! The fish was lying horizontally just now. He thought the fish had lost all its strength. But when he was about to spear the fish, the fish moved again.

Guo Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he kept urging him to take action.

Wang Junhe had no choice but to wait for the right moment and try to throw the harpoon out.

However, the tuna turned swiftly and avoided the attack.

"."Wang Junhe had nothing to say and could only sigh that he had bad luck.

Guo Xiao was delighted, and immediately grabbed the rope tied to the side of the boat, took back the harpoon and got ready.

As luck would have it, with Gu Nan's effort, the tuna exhausted its last bit of strength and floated to the surface again.

Guo Xiao seized the opportunity and hit the fish's pectoral fin directly, and the blood immediately dyed the sea red.

After a few minutes, the fish completely stopped moving.

Wang Junhe took a noose, tied the fish's tail around it, and then asked the boatman to start the crane to pull the fish up.

Such a large fishing boat often goes to the open sea, so it is normal to have a crane.

Gu Nan unhooked the fishhook from the fish's mouth and asked the boatman, "Are there any more tuna in the water?"

After so much time had passed, he was afraid that the tuna had fallen apart.

The boatman picked up the intercom and asked the captain, who then replied, "There are still quite a few. The fish-attracting lights are on, so the fish should not leave at night."

"That's fine." Gu Nan nodded, grabbed a big octopus from the bucket beside him, hung it up and threw it into the water again.

With such good fishing conditions, you can't just catch one, right? (End of this chapter)
