Back To the Small Fishing Village In 1982

  Chapter 162 School of fish

  At present, there is no production of yachts in China, and there are no relative laws and regulations. Now this yacht is sailing on the sea, which is equivalent to driving casually.

  As far as he knows, after 20 years, there will be a specific division of this type of leisure ships.

  The lowest ship should be a Class V ship, the distance from the shore should not exceed five nautical miles, and the minimum design significant wave height is 0.5 meters.

  The waves on the ship vary greatly, and their heights are uneven. The meaningful wave height can be understood as the wave height measured by your eyes, which is usually 1.6 times the average wave height.

Then, the fourth-class boats cannot go beyond 10 nautical miles offshore, the third-class boats cannot go beyond 20 nautical miles offshore, the second-class boats cannot exceed 200 nautical miles, and the highest-class first-class boats can exceed 200 nautical miles. Only such boats can go fishing in the deep sea. .

  When he was at sea before, every time he approached the shore, he would see many fishing boats fishing dozens of nautical miles offshore. He also curiously searched for relevant content about fishing boats to learn more about them.

  But in this day and age, they have no taboos. There are no relevant laws and regulations, and they can sail as they please, as far as you want.

  Many fish gather in offshore fishing wells, trenches, and faults, most of which are more than 60 to 70 nautical miles away from the shore. He reckoned that these people would definitely not travel that far to take risks, and at most they would fish and play offshore.

   Sure enough, he estimated that after sailing for a little over an hour, about 30 nautical miles, the yacht gradually slowed down and stopped.

He calculated in his mind that this distance is about 10 nautical miles further than the point where they used to trawl the net. After all, it is 15 nautical miles from the pier in their village to the Hairun Wharf. Start trawling.

   At this time, the sky was completely dark. After the boat stopped sailing, Ye Yaodong saw them unpacking excitedly, taking out fishing rods, and discussing about starting to work.

  Some of them looked brand new at first glance, and they probably couldn’t wait for someone to deliver them, so they asked someone to buy them when they were in a hurry.

  He was not far away, and he could see the brand of the fishing rod at a glance. Dijia fishing rod was made in Wanwan, and it was sold in large Taiwanese stores.

   "Tsk tsk tsk~ Such a good fishing rod, we still use the bamboo pole to fish." Ah Zheng muttered there in a low voice.

   "It's your fault for not reincarnating."

   "There is no need to compare, let's just come out and see, and how good it is to get paid, it is equivalent to someone paying us to come out to gain knowledge, hahaha."

  The three of them were talking there, but Ye Yaodong moved a little closer to the side. Anyway, he only said not to affect them, and didn't say that they couldn't take a closer look. When Hong Wenle got on the boat, he told them to be more casual.

   I saw that they were not very skilled in shaking the reel, tried it, and shouted there, "It's started, it's started."

   "I've always heard that sea fishing is fun, so I'll try it too."

   "Where's the bait?"

   "Here, here, some of the shrimps I bought seem to be dead."

   "Only shrimp? Let's catch the live ones."

  These people are not professional, they are all rookies, and the bait seems to be the simplest small live shrimp that Wang Maoquan prepared for them.

  After all, "big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimps, dried shrimps eat mud" is a food chain principle, big fish not only eat small fish, but also like dried shrimps.

  Shrimp is a better bait for sea fishing.

   At this time. A young man caught a shrimp impatiently, and then hung it up casually. The hooks were all exposed, and he watched as black lines appeared on his face.

  A person who doesn't understand a little bit, dare to go fishing in the sea?

  Seeing a young man, he was about to throw the hook directly, and he quickly reminded, "Comrade, you hooked the wrong bait..."

   "Huh? Wrong connection."

  Other people also know a little bit, remind him, "Don't expose the hook, otherwise there will be no fish to eat your bait."

Ye Yaodong added by the way, "You can try to avoid the position of the shrimp's head and hang it at the position of the shrimp gun. This hanging method makes it difficult for the shrimp to be thrown off when throwing bait, and it keeps its activity for a long time. It is also suitable for swimming. The posture is more natural, I tried."

   "Where's the Shrimp Gun?"

  Ye Yaodong: …

   "The front of the shrimp head is pointed, and the part that looks like a gun is the shrimp gun." He said as he stepped forward to help him hang a bait.

   "Oh~ Got it, thank you!"

  Others hung up the wrong way, and they all took it down to imitate him, and hung it up again.

  Ye Yaodong didn't walk away after breaking into the interior for the time being, and stood aside logically, watching from a close distance.

  The other three saw it, and quietly followed, standing quietly by the side to watch.

  The young man held the baited fishing rod, hesitated for a moment, and then said to Ye Yaodong: "I have never caught a fish before, why don't you demonstrate it to me?"

  Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "Shall I fish for you first?"

   "Yes, you can demonstrate it."

  Others also echoed and said: "Yes, you can demonstrate it and have a look."

"All right."

He took the fishing rod, which was about four meters long and less than five meters long, touched the reel next to it, and after familiarizing himself with it, he threw the hook far away, about five or six meters away. .

   As a result, within ten seconds, he felt a pulling force on the hook, and a fish took the bait.

"I'm coming."

  Those young people leaned over the railing and watched excitedly.

"So fast?"

   "Quickly pull it up to see what kind of fish it is?"

  Ye Yaodong felt the pulling force from the fishhook, and happily turned the hand lever slowly. He waited for the fish to unload the force automatically, and then quickly took up the line.

  At this time, the fish on the hook was also exposed to the water, and everyone saw its true colors clearly.

   "Damn it, it's Huang Li Pomfret!" Ye Yaodong was pleasantly surprised, this fish definitely weighs five catties.

  The young people cheered instantly.

   "Good start, yes."

   "Quickly pull it up, this fish looks quite big."

  Ye Yaodong continued to reel in the line happily, Xiao Xiao simply took the long-handled fishing net aside, helped him catch the fish, and put it on the deck.

  The group of young people immediately surrounded them. One of them caught the fish in his hand and gestured with his palm, "It's bigger than my face. How many catties does it weigh?"

   "It's obviously bigger than your butt, okay?"

   "Hahahaha~"

   "Should be five catties?"

  After completing the task, Ye Yaodong put the sea pole aside and returned it to the young man just now.

   Unexpectedly, the young man said with a smile: "You caught this fish, it is yours, you can take it."

"ah?"

  Hong Wenle smiled and said: "Indeed, there are buckets on board, you can take any one to fill it."

   "Okay, thank you very much."

  Ye Yaodong happily picked up the fish, and Ah Zheng quickly brought a bucket to fill it for him, and said enviously, "It's ok, Dongzi, I got a fish for nothing!"

  The fat man also said enviously: "Such a big yellow pomfret costs two yuan a catty."

  Xiao Xiao also said: "This one weighs five catties."

   "There is no work for nothing!"

  He weighed the fish in the bucket, put the bucket in the corner, and focused on those people again.

  I saw that the young man who was helping to hang the bait took the lead and threw the hook towards the sea.

   In less than 30 seconds, the young man beside him yelled ecstatically while pulling up the line, "I got it, I got it!"

  Everyone looked over in surprise...

   "Ah, it's just a black snapper!" The young man's voice was slightly disappointed.

  Ye Yaodong said: "Now this season, the black snapper is full of white oil and very fat, and it is also big. Yours weighs two or three catties, and it is not too small."

  Hong Wenle also smiled and said: "Yes, Zhiming, you were the first to catch it, and we haven't moved yet..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the voice fell, his fishing rod also moved. He didn't care about talking, and immediately turned the reel to reel in the line, but found that the fish seemed a bit big, so he had to keep releasing or reeling in to buffer the fish. resistance.

   "Ah, it's red squid..."

  His friends were the first to shout out excitedly.

  Ye Yaodong also looked at it in surprise. It was Dushi yellowtail. Some people would call it red sweetfish. In fact, its scientific name is octopus.

   This yellowtail is not too big, it is only half a meter long, but compared to other fish, it is already huge.

  Hong Wenle was pleasantly surprised and kept skating the fish until the fish had no strength before taking up the line. He had fished before and had some experience, so he was better than others.

   "Ah, it's so big, isn't this one half a meter long?"

  Everyone looked at the red squid still hanging on the hook in surprise.

   "Ah, I also moved here..."

"Me too…"

  Others ignored Hong Wenle's amberjack, and all turned their attention to their own fishing rods.

  Hong Wen happily took the fish down and threw it on the deck.

  Compared to the black snapper, this red squid is more than three or four times bigger.

  For sea fishing, fish prefer to bite the hook at night, because fish eat not only by sight, but also by smell. Although it is night, the fish’s bait-finding skills are no worse than during the day.

  In addition, at night, some small fish that like to make nests return to their nests to rest one after another, and big fish start to come out to look for food, and the probability of catching big fish at night is higher.

   Also, changes in tides seriously affect the activities of marine fish. Most offshore fish will migrate short distances with the ebb and flow of the tide.

  When the tide is high, they swim to the shallows on the shore to look for food, and when the tide is low, they swim back to the deep water.

  Rising tide is the best time for sea fishing, followed by ebb tide. Fish don’t like to bite the hook the least during the period of low tide and ebb tide.

   Today is the first day of the lunar new year, and the tide level is at its lowest at 12 o'clock at night. It is only after 7 o'clock at this moment, and the tide is still high.

   Hong Wenle watched other people reeling in the line, and was not in a hurry to take the bait. He wanted to see what fish other people caught?

  Ye Yaodong looked at the Dushi amberjack on the deck, and was about to remind him, but he heard them shouting excitedly.

   "Ah, here it comes..."

   At this moment, everyone suddenly heard the sound of "clucking", which was a bit like a pig's grunt.

   "Ah...it's yellow chicken fish..."

"mine too…"

   "Fuck, mine too."

  They took back shots one after another, and they were all a little bit confused when they saw that they were all yellow chickens.

   "Why are they all yellow chickens?"

  Hong Wenle laughed there, "Maybe a group of yellow chicken fish just passed by? So you are all yellow chicken fish?"

   "Too likely..."

   "Could it be that the call just now was made by the yellow pheasant?"

Ye Yaodong's heart was itching, and he couldn't help explaining to them, "The yellow pheasant is a bit special. It can use the teeth in its throat to make a sound similar to a pig's grunt, and then use its swim bladder to amplify it, so you only hear it when you catch it ashore. Its "clucking" sound."

   "Ah, like this? It's really special."

"It's really special. Although the yellow pheasant is not big, only 1 to 2 catties, the impact brought by the fish after being caught is not ordinary. "

   "Me too, I thought I caught a big fish just now..."

"It's still your luck, first catch a half-meter-long red kangaroo," said the young man named Zhiming who lent Ye Yaodong the fishing rod, "You are all better than me, and mine is still black bream. Next, Next, I want to catch a big fish."

   "Maybe there are still schools of yellow chickens and fishes underneath, haha."

   "That's okay, anyway, we just came out with a lot of time."

  Seeing them teasing, Ye Yaodong threw the Dushi yellowtail into the bucket just like that, and couldn't help reminding, "This fish, you are going to throw it into the bucket like this, don't worry about it?"

  Just saw that he threw it directly on the deck, so he wanted to ask.

   "Huh? Otherwise?"

  He said dumbfoundedly: "Mr. Hong, as long as the fish in this sea are weighed by two catties, the first thing to do after unhooking is to bleed them. You can't throw them there like this."

   "Huh? Bloodletting???"

   These young people don't understand anything, and they still want to learn how to fish in the sea?

"Sea fish swim fast and have strong athletic ability. As the fish continue to struggle after being caught, the accumulation of lactic acid in the fish will become more and more serious. In mild cases, the sour taste in the meat will increase, and in severe cases, the fish will change color significantly. Once the blood vessels are blocked When the fishhook is pierced, the blood seeps into the muscles and forms congestion, which greatly affects the color and taste of the fish.

   "And as lactic acid builds up, the flesh is 'burned' or damaged, and the more flesh that is damaged, the less valuable the fish is."

   "So the bloodletting is to make the fish die quickly and keep the meat fresh to the greatest extent."

  Hong Wenle was stunned when he heard this. He had fished before, but only when he was bored. He had never caught such a big fish. He was always only responsible for eating.

   Others were dumbfounded, but they also understood that the fish must be bled to keep it fresh.

   "Thank you, I don't know if you don't tell me, and I don't understand the bloodletting, can you do the bloodletting for me?"

"OK."

   Anyway, idle is idle, send Buddha to the West!

  The bloodletting method is very simple. Use scissors or Lure pliers to pull out part of the gills, or directly cut off the joint between the gills and the body, put it in a bucket and bury it in ice for storage after the blood has drained.

  If the fish is bigger, you can also add a knife to the tail to speed up the bleeding. This is not necessary.

  There is a small kitchen countertop on the yacht, with everything, Ye Yaodong just took a pair of scissors and dealt with it, and then threw it into the bucket to let it bleed slowly.

  Those young people watched him deal with it, and they also watched it with relish, and they were still lucky to find someone who knew the goods, otherwise it would be a waste of things.

  After bleeding, they started throwing the pole again.

   Ah Zheng looked at Ye Yaodong washing his hands, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "I don't understand anything, and I'm still here to fish..."

   "Hush..."

  Having the experience of taking the bait for the first time, they were much calmer when they took the bait this time, but I didn’t expect that everyone who took the bait this time was the yellow pheasant!

  Listening to the discussion of those people, the fat man couldn't help sticking his head out, "There are really yellow chickens and fishes down there!"

   Ah Zheng nodded, "It must be."

  Xiao Xiao felt a little regretful, "Oh, what if I brought a fishing net with me? If I just catch everything with one net, I'll make a fortune. How slow is this fishing."

  Ye Yaodong looked at the dark water surface, affected by night vision, he couldn't see anything, even if there were fish schools passing by, he couldn't see clearly unless they brought up waves or turned out of the water when they were preying.

   "Who doesn't know to think so? But the key point is that people go out to sea for sea fishing, and what they enjoy is the fun of catching fish during sea fishing."

   "When will we go out to catch fish at night, it looks like there are a lot of fish at night, and it looks good to catch."

   "Then it's better to come out to catch at night, it may be more efficient."

  It's a pity that when they went to sea at night in the past, when the boat arrived at the destination, it was already dark, and they never really caught at night.

   "Each has its own fun..."

   While they were muttering and chatting, Ye Yaodong suddenly noticed a large piece of golden light under the sea in the distance, and it was still moving.

   "Damn it, it's a school of big yellow croakers!!"

  His exclamation directly attracted the attention of the three people who were chatting and the young people who were fishing. Everyone looked into the distance one after another.
