Golden Fishing Village

No wonder Ao Daguo and others don't know this kind of conch. Under normal circumstances, they only live in the deep sea off the coast of Mozambique and South Africa. They are quite rare and have no population in Chinese waters.

However, they are found all over the world because they can parasitize in the stomachs of sharks. Sharks have the characteristics of global survival. They will not live in a fixed area of ​​the sea, but like to wander in the oceans of the world.

Because of its rarity and strange living habits, the Futoni conch has become extremely precious.

In the international market, this kind of conch is very expensive. It is called a treasure with the Dragon Palace Wengrong Conch. The dead Futoni conch is also worth tens of thousands of dollars. Even if there is only one shell, it can be sold for thousands of dollars.

As for this kind of living one? That is even more valuable, estimated to be in units of one hundred thousand dollars!

Seeing this, Ao Muyang immediately treasured them. He first found a fish tank to raise them, and then threw a little gold drop into it to share with them.

Previously, he handled the conch in a casual way. Several conchs were almost tormented to death. He had to use gold drops to keep the conch alive.

If it weren't for Lu Zhizi, Ao Muyang would have disposed of these unfamiliar conches at will, and the head of state might have taken out the meat and eaten it as a snack.

In this way, he would have lost a lot of money!

In order to express his gratitude to Lu Zhizi, he patted his chest and said, "I'll make you two refreshing seasonal dishes tonight!"

The vegetable garden in the yard began to harvest, and Ao Muyang picked some vegetables he planted and carefully made a few farm dishes.

He knew that Lu Zhizi had been eating seafood since he came to Longtou Village, so this time he changed to authentic farm dishes, which Lu Zhizi praised again and again.

While eating, Ao Muyang asked, "Tomorrow is the weekend, do you have any plans?"

Lu Zhizi shook his head: "No, do you have any activities? Take me flying."

Ao Muyang smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will go out to sea to fish for Spanish mackerel. If you are interested, I will take you with me. It is best to work with two people."

Today, he saw a big Spanish mackerel in the sea, and he decided not to lead the team out to sea recently. There are many fish in the sea at this time of year, so Ao Daguo and his team can go out by themselves. He plans to go fishing for Spanish mackerel.

The monsoon starts at the end of October, which is the best time to go fishing for Spanish mackerel.

Many people are not familiar with Spanish mackerel. In fact, in the eastern part of Shandong, this fish is called Spanish mackerel, which is a very popular seafood.

They have a milky white belly and a blue-black back, and like to live in the upper waters of the ocean.

Most of the pelagic fish in the ocean have this body color, because when the prey in the air, such as sea eagles, look down from above, the blue fish back is consistent with the sea water color, making it difficult to be discovered. For bottom-dwelling fish, the sky is bright white when viewed from below, and the white belly of the fish is more concealed.

To catch mackerel, trawling and purse seine are used. Every year, a large number of mackerel are produced in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. The mackerel produced in this way are not very big, which has even caused a misunderstanding that mackerel are only 30 to 50 centimeters long and can only grow to one meter at most.

In fact, mackerel can grow very long, and the maximum can grow to nearly two meters. It is not uncommon to see large fish of one and a half meters, but they cannot be caught by nets, and must be floated.

Large mackerel do not like to group together. They are similar to some tuna and like to live alone. At most, they form small groups, so purse seine fishing is not suitable.

Lu Zhizi had never been fishing before, and she became interested and agreed to go out to sea with him the next day.

He did not send Lu Zhizi back to school early because he did not have to get up early. The two watched TV and chatted together until midnight before they separated.

The next day, after getting up, he yawned, lay on his side at the head of the bed, played with his phone for a while, read the news, and then got out of bed lazily.

Ao Fugui was very surprised when he met him: "Hey, it's a good day today, but you didn't go out to sea?"

Ao Muyang said: "Go out, but not to cast a net, I'm going to go fishing for giant mackerel."

Ao Fugui suddenly realized: "Yes, it's time to go fishing for giant mackerel. If you ask me, you might as well go to cast a net. There are not many giant mackerels now, and you may not be able to catch one after a day of drift fishing."

Ao Muyang smiled and said: "I have confidence."

The two chatted, and Sun Weilan poked her head out and said: "Yangzi, Auntie made wontons this morning, come and have a bowl?"

"What filling?"

Ao Fugui said: "Shepherd's purse and meat, shrimp skin and eggs, absolutely delicious."

Ao Muyang said: "Okay, I'll go over and have two bowls."

The key to wontons is the soup, which is a piece of cake for fishermen. Whether it's seaweed, kelp, dried shrimp, or tofu shreds, fishermen have plenty.

A bowl of wontons was finally dotted with sesame oil and sprinkled with coriander. Ao Muyang ate it with big mouthfuls, and was satisfied.

After eating and drinking, he decided to go out to sea when it was almost noon.

Just like people eat three meals at fixed times, swordfish also have regular feeding patterns. They are nocturnal and night-hunting, that is, they move at night and hunt at night.

However, during the day, dawn is their peak feeding time, when they are hungry and will eat anything. Therefore, if you want to get a good harvest from drift fishing, you have to get up early and go out in the dark.

But there is a problem with this, that is, drift fishing requires a good field of vision. At dawn, the sun has not risen yet, and the sky is too dark, so the field of vision is naturally not very good.

And this is too tiring and too uncomfortable. Ao Muyang regards drift fishing for big swordfish as an activity, so he doesn't want to suffer this fatigue.

So, he decided to go out close to noon. Anyway, in addition to dawn, there is also an evening, which is also the peak feeding time for swordfish.

The weather on the day Ao Muyang chose was also good. The best time to float fish for Spanish mackerel is "big mirror sea, scorching sky", that is, the calmer the wind and the hotter the weather, the easier it is to catch Spanish mackerel.

In late autumn, the temperature has been set, and it is impossible to have very hot weather. However, today the sun is shining brightly and the sea surface is as smooth as a mirror, which is already a good opportunity.

Before going out to sea, he first prepared tools, a 4.5-meter hard fishing rod and a 5.3-meter soft fishing rod. The hard fishing rod is suitable for rookies. This is what he prepared for Lu Zhizi, and he uses a soft fishing rod himself.

In addition, he prepared a spinning wheel and a 50-meter main line. He chose No. 2 PE line for the main line. If it is thin, it will break easily, and if it is thick, it will alert the fish.

He made a unique treatment for the fish hook. He chose a long-handled hook with a wide hook gate, and put a small bite chain on the hook handle to connect the fishing line and the fish hook.

You should know that Spanish mackerel is a carnivorous fish, similar to sharks. Their teeth are very sharp and their bite force is very strong. If you tie the hook directly with a fishing line, even if you catch a fish, the fish can bite off the fishing line with one bite.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.

When going out to sea, in addition to Lu Zhizi, he also brought Ao Xiaoniu. Floating fishing for Spanish mackerel requires assistance, and Ao Xiaoniu is more reliable than Lu Zhizi in this regard.

The sea fishing boat that had been stopped for a while was started again, and the yacht galloped into the sea. The sun was the best at noon, and Ao Muyang hugged the general and Yuan first to bask in the sun.
