My fishing game syncs with reality

However, sometimes plans change due to unexpected circumstances. Just three days after Gu Nan sent out the recruitment information, Ye Jing came to him.

"Anan, I've sold my boat. How about we get a longline boat together? I'll fish with the boatmen during the weekdays, and in my free time, how about that?"

Ye Jing came up with this idea after careful consideration.

When he went out to sea before, he heard about some of Gu Nan’s development plans and decided to join.

Compared to the trawlers that are always busy, and the crab boats that are relatively troublesome, the longline boats are a little more relaxed and have more free time for fishing.

Secondly, the nature of these two jobs is similar, and Ye Jing feels that he is familiar with them.

"Do you want to invest in a single ship or a company?" They are all brothers, and An Jun allowed them to invest in his business, so Gu Nan had no objection.

However, the amount of investment in a fishing boat and the amount of investment in a company are definitely different, so he needs to ask clearly.

Ye Jing thought for a moment and said, "Company, what's the point of a ship's bonus, but I plan to follow the ship for now. You hire an experienced captain, and I'll learn some experience from him."

"Okay, then let's call Ajun over, and the three of us will discuss the company's affairs." Gu Nan originally planned to take it slow and build a ship first, so there was no need to start a company.

But now that the longline and trawling have been scheduled, we might as well arrange the crab boat as soon as possible.

Although the most common species on the market are swimming crabs and a small number of other types of sea crabs, there are still a large number of sea crabs that go directly to processing plants, which is a considerable number every year.

For example, the round-toed crab, also known as the sand crab.

This type of crab can usually be caught in large quantities using cages and trawl nets.

Sand crabs rarely appear on the market and are basically sent to processing plants.

The claws of the so-called drunken crab claws are from sand crabs, which flow out of the processing plant. The crab bodies are basically ground into crab powder for feed.

After Gu Nan notified An Jun, he sent messages to Wang Junhe and Guo Xiao, asking them if they were interested in investing.

In fact, he didn't think that his little trick would interest the two of them, but since they asked him to invest in the short drama company, he couldn't help but ask.

Just as he thought, neither of them was interested, but they said they would be contacted first if there was something good.

The three of them then got busy. Gu Nan was responsible for buying a ship, Ye Jing was responsible for recruiting crew members and experienced captains, and An Jun registered the company while he was busy with his own restaurant.

The boat was registered under the company's name, and Gu Nan's seafood store would have to use the company's account to purchase goods in the future.

At the same time, he also specially rented a low-temperature freezing warehouse, as the small warehouse in the store could not hold so many seafood.

During this period, Gu Nan was not idle. He went out to sea from time to time to purchase goods and upgrade the level of the inland sea fishing rods to gold.

Originally, he didn't know how the Inland Sea was in sync with reality. After he caught a blue lobster and saw the red devil shrimp appearing on the seven-day sea-hunting map, he realized that the Inland Sea was actually being compared to the Mediterranean Sea.

Many of the seafood in the Mediterranean are the same as those in the Indian Ocean, and some also come from the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, Gu Nan didn’t know much about those common seafoods, so he didn’t know about it until now.

Time quickly came to April, and the three second-hand fishing boats had been renovated and were ready to go out to sea!
They were quite old when they were first bought, so Gu Nan specially refurbished them. Secondly, it was not easy to find crew members, so it was delayed until early April.

There are only two months left before the sea ban. Although the time is not chosen well, there is nothing we can do. We will not rest for these two months and will work until the sea ban.

"Anan, this is our first time out to sea and I plan to follow you around with Lao Wu to get familiar with the resource points. What do you think?" Ye Jing discussed.

All the fishing spots that Gu Nan had found before were suitable for longline fishing, but she was still stunned when she heard him say this: "Didn't I give you all the coordinates?"

He has invested in many places recently, and business after the New Year is not as good as before the New Year, resulting in his small treasury being almost drained.

He holds the largest share in the fishing company and therefore has invested the most.

He doesn't own a large share of the short drama company, but the initial investment in filming and purchasing copyrights also requires a lot of capital investment, which also costs a lot.

So this time when he went out to sea, he planned to use all the legendary cards to catch a batch of bluefin tuna from the Atlantic Ocean.

It always feels a bit difficult to operate with a boat around.

"Oh, you're lucky. You might find some new fishing spots. There are only two months left before the sea ban. I just want to earn more money and replenish my blood." Ye Jing said with a smile.

"And it's only for a period of time in the early stages. Just rely on your luck. Our paths will definitely be different in the future."

Compared to An Jun and Gu Nan, he has the weakest foundation, so he is eager to replenish his blood first so that he can have money to take his family out for fun during the fishing ban period.

After hearing what he said, Gu Nan had no objection. He could just find another chance to fish after they separated.

Although he went out to sea during this period, he was always in the near sea and came back after receiving the goods. He basically only stayed at sea for two days.

This time I plan to be away for a week, so I have to prepare a lot of things.

Fortunately, there was only one person, so everything was ready at nine o'clock in the morning and the Nanchen was launched.

Ye Jing and his team arrived early and were already at the dock at six o'clock, having prepared all the supplies before going out to sea.

The crab boat and the trawler set off at eight o'clock. They waited for an hour and only followed Gu Nan when he saw him set sail.

There are only a few fixed places with resources on the sea, but Gu Nan has obtained a lot of coordinates through various channels during this period and gave a copy to Ye Jing.

The location of this first stop was one he had never been to. He had obtained the coordinates more than a month ago. This time the voyage would be long, so it was a good opportunity to visit these places he had never been to.

The first stop was not too far away, only about 47 nautical miles from the coast, and it took only more than three hours to get there.

Gu Nan did not see any obvious reef features on the sea surface, so he took out his notebook and opened it to check the information recorded on it.

The first stop is located at a large underwater reef group with a depth of about sixty to seventy meters.

There are both deep-sea fish and coral fish, but the overall number of deep-sea fish is larger.

After Gu Nan learned about the situation, he continued to wander around the waters, paying attention to the situation on the fish finder.

Having the coordinates does not mean they are at the fishing spot. Every time they come to the fishing spot, if there are no obvious features on the sea surface, they still have to continue looking for it themselves.

Fortunately, the coordinate range was not large, and Gu Nan quickly found the correct location. He slowly stopped the fishing boat and picked up the radio.

"We've found the location. I've stopped here. You guys look around to see if there's a suitable place to longline. We'll spend the night here."

"Got it." As soon as Gu Nan finished speaking, Ye Jing's two brief words came over the radio.

He turned off the engine, dropped the anchor, walked out of the cabin, and saw the fishing boat slowly stopping on his southwest side. Apparently they had found a suitable location.

This fishing spot is quite large, and the fishing boat is at least two hundred meters away from him.

This distance is definitely not suitable for fishing big fish like tuna, but it is no problem for fishing deep-sea fish.

And they are together, so it doesn't matter if they get closer.

He set out at nine o'clock and took a little over three hours to reach his destination. Apparently he hadn't had time to eat lunch.

The fishing boat started working immediately, slowly casting longlines along the waterway. Two boatmen were responsible for cooking, and their wages were slightly higher than other boatmen, which was considered a subsidy for cooking.

Therefore, they were all on time and had already eaten lunch in batches in advance.

Gu Nan first made a nest beside the boat, then washed his hands and went to the kitchen.

I used kitchen paper to dry three large steaks that I had thawed in the morning, then turned on the fire and slow-fried them.

His frying pan was big enough, so he could fry the three steaks at the same time to avoid wasting time.

The weather in April is still very cold in the north, but here in Yangjiang Port the daytime temperature is already over 20 degrees Celsius. There has been drizzling rain recently, making it particularly hot and humid.

Boiling noodles is convenient, but it’s easy to make you sweat while eating them, and it’s not as enjoyable as eating fried meat.

Unfortunately, the fishing spot here is a bit deep. If it were an area of ​​20 to 30 meters, he would definitely have to go into the water to fish.

There is no choice now, I can only take out the fishing rod and go fishing.

He didn’t take the electric spinning rod as he was not optimistic about the fishing situation in the afternoon, so he decided to try the feel of it first.

Hang a partially thawed sardine and throw it into the water, then wait quietly for the fish to bite.

If you set the nest in advance, there will be some effect.

Some nocturnal fish still did not come out, but a lot of fish nearby were attracted.

Less than two minutes after Gu Nan put the hook and bait in, the fishing rod began to tremble violently, but the force was locked and the fish could not be pulled.

He decisively raised the rod and stabbed the fish, while roughly judging the size of the fish.

The strength is quite good, estimated to be about five or six kilograms. If it is a fish with strong pulling power, it may weigh three kilograms.

Gu Nan quickly picked it up and took a look. It turned out to be a worthless small bonito, which looked to be only three or four pounds. It would be a good bait to attract big fish.

But it also depends on whether he can encounter big cargo this time when he goes out to sea.

It’s collected. There’s no need to bleed it as bait. Gu Nan just threw it into the box filled with crushed ice next to him.

The sardines had been bitten to pieces, so Gu Nan changed another one, threw the bait into the water and continued.

This time, the fish hook is the same as last time, still staying in the middle water layer at a depth of about 30 meters.

He just checked the fish finder. Although there were not many scattered fish in the middle water layer, they were larger than those at the bottom of the water.

Try a few fish first. If all you catch are worthless bonito, switch to bottom fishing.

After waiting for two or three minutes, the second fish was finally hooked. This time the pulling force was slightly stronger than last time, and it was obvious that the fish was also a little bigger.

But this amount of pulling force was not a big deal for Gu Nan. Although he couldn't pull the fish out directly, he could still quickly reel in the fishing line.

It took less than two minutes for the fish to appear on the water surface.

Gu Nan was quite satisfied with this one. It was a sturgeon over half a meter long, and should weigh around 6 or 7 kilograms. It seemed that the pulling force of a sturgeon of the same size was much smaller than that of a bonito.

I collected the sturgeons and threw them into the box to keep them company with the bonito.

This is a fish that will die once it is caught. Gu Nan tries his best to feed it, even if there is fish maw in its stomach. This thing only costs about fifty yuan per pound.

The price will only increase to 80 yuan when it exceeds ten kilograms. It is not easy to increase the unit price.

There are few fish in the middle waters, so Gu Nan always has to wait for a while before catching any fish. The most fish he catches are bonito, followed by sea bass and a small number of sturgeons.

There were no particularly big fish, so after fishing for an hour or so, he lost interest and decided to fish at the bottom to see if there were any treasures.

It's all because of the game that he has lost interest in fishing for fish that cost less than 100 yuan each. If it were before the game was connected, he would be very happy with the current catch.

This time the hook and bait sank directly to the bottom, and Gu Nan threw some bait down.

After bottom fishing, the fish was hooked very quickly. Less than ten seconds after the hook and bait were in place, the fishing rod moved.

But the movement was the same as what was detected by the fish finder, the fish at the bottom of the water were relatively small, so the movement of the fishing rod was not loud either.

Gu Nan lifted the fishing rod to stab the fish, but when he found that he had no strength, he quickly reeled in the line and the fish flew up.

A fat and particularly tempting deep-sea stonefish was caught. Holding it in the hand, it felt like it weighed about 250 grams.

This head is very good, one more piece will make a complete plate.

Gu Nan was really greedy when he saw the fish. He wanted to make fish soup in the evening, and Shi Jiugong happened to be the perfect ingredient for fish soup.

Thinking about the fish soup, Gu Nan actually caught three stone fish weighing between 500 grams and 1 jin.

For deep-sea stonefish, this size is not considered big. Gu Nan has caught fish weighing three or four kilograms, and the number is quite large.

But that was fished in the continental shelf waters. Forget it here because we don’t have the resources.

Four pieces of fish are enough to make a fish soup for one person, but Gu Nan would like something different now.

I threw the bait again and the fishing line was still in place, but the speed of releasing it suddenly increased and the angle was a little wrong.

Gu Nan was shocked, he was being intercepted.

He quickly turned off the reel and raised the rod to hook the fish.

Fortunately, I reacted in time and the fish didn't escape.

This time the fish was also quite strong, at least bigger than the bonito I caught just now.

Gu Nan reeled the fish in for a bit, then reeled it in as soon as the fish's strength weakened. Because a lot of the fishing line had been pulled out, and the fish seemed to be moving very fast, it took him about five minutes to pull the fish to the side of the boat.

Then I found out that it was actually a fat mackerel with a bulging belly.

Gu Nan suddenly realized that April and May are the time to eat Spanish mackerel!

Some areas in the sea north of Yangjiang Port have been closed to the sea at this time.

Because it is the breeding season for Spanish mackerel now, and "Chuanwu" is very famous. Even at this time, a pound of Spanish mackerel from a certain place costs two to three hundred yuan!
However, in order to allow the Spanish mackerel to reproduce well, the Spanish mackerel breeding sites in those places were closed to the sea, causing "Chuanwu" to completely disappear from the market. Only counterfeit and shoddy products were left, which were used by seafood vendors to fool ignorant people.

Goods imported from the south for a dozen yuan can be sold for two or three hundred yuan in East China. This profit is really tempting.

Even in the information age, there are still many people who get cheated. Who would bother to study this?
Gu Nan only understood this after he became a fisherman. He was also a victim when he first opened the seafood store.

Looking at the mackerel by the boat, he quickly took out the scoop net and scooped it up.

This is a top-quality mackerel. I don’t know how many I can catch next time!
In theory, the Spanish mackerel will not start to migrate south from Yangjiang Port until early May. These are probably the vanguard, and their numbers must be very small. (End of this chapter)
