Chapter 161 Fish School

At present, there are no domestically produced yachts, and there are no corresponding laws and regulations. Now this yacht is sailing on the sea, which is equivalent to driving it casually.

As far as he knows, in 20 years, there will be specific classifications for this type of leisure ships.

The lowest one should be a Category 5 ship, which cannot sail more than five nautical miles from the shore, and its minimum design meaningful wave height is 0.5 meters.

The waves on the ship are very different and have uneven heights. The meaningful wave height can be understood as the wave height you visually observe, which is usually 1.6 times the average wave height.

Then Category 4 ships cannot travel more than 10 nautical miles offshore, Category 3 ships cannot travel more than 20 nautical miles offshore, Category 2 ships cannot exceed 200 nautical miles, and the highest-level Category 1 ships can exceed 200 nautical miles. Only such ships can go for deep-sea fishing. .

When he was at sea, 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 and learned about it.

But in this era, they have no restrictions. There are no relevant laws and regulations. They can sail as far as they want.

Many fish gathered in offshore fishing wells, trenches, and faults, most of which were more than sixty or seventy nautical miles away from the shore. He estimated that these people would definitely not go that far and take risks. They would most likely fish and play offshore.

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

He calculated in his mind that this distance was about 10 nautical miles farther than the point where they used to trawl. After all, it was 15 nautical miles from the pier in their village to Hairun Pier. In the past, they would only drive out about 35 nautical miles. Start trawling.

At this time, the sky was completely dark. After the boat stopped sailing, Ye Yaodong saw them excitedly opening the package, taking out the fishing rods one by one, and discussing how to start fishing.

Some of them looked brand new at first glance, so I guess I couldn't wait for someone to deliver them to me, so I was so anxious that I asked someone to buy them on the spur of the moment.

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

"Tsk tsk tsk~ Such a good fishing rod, we all still use bamboo poles for fishing." Azheng whispered there.

"It's your fault that you don't know how to reincarnate."

"There is no need to compare, let's just come out and experience it, and how good the wages are. It's equivalent to someone paying us to come out and gain experience, hahaha."

The three of them were talking there, but Ye Yaodong moved closer to the side. Anyway, he only said not to affect them, but not that they couldn't look closer. Hong Wenle even told them to be casual when they got on the boat.

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

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

"Where's the bait?"

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

"Is there only shrimp? Let's catch them alive."

These people are not professionals, they are all rookies. The only bait seems to be the simplest small live shrimps prepared by Wang Maoquan for them.

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

….

Shrimp are considered a better bait in sea fishing.

At this time. A young man caught a shrimp anxiously, and then hung it casually, with the hook exposed, and black lines appeared on his face.

How dare people who don’t understand anything dare to go fishing in the sea?

Seeing a young man who was about to throw the hook, he quickly reminded him, "Comrade, you have hung the wrong bait..."

"Huh? Wrong call."

Others also knew a little bit and reminded him, "Don't expose the hook, otherwise no fish will 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. With this hanging method, the shrimp will not be easily shaken off when throwing bait, and it will maintain its activity for a longer time and swim." The posture is more natural, I have tried it."

"Where's the shrimp gun?"

Ye Yaodong:......

"The sharp, gun-like part at the front of the shrimp head is the shrimp gun." He said as he stepped forward and hung a bait for him.

"Oh~ I understand, thank you!"

Others who hung them incorrectly also took them off and imitated him, and hung them again.

Ye Yaodong did not walk away after temporarily breaking into the interior. He stood aside and took a closer look.

The other three saw it and followed quietly, standing quietly watching.

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

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

"Yes, you can demonstrate it."

Others also echoed and said: "Okay, you can demonstrate it and try fishing a rod to see."

"All right."

He took the fishing rod, which was about four to five meters long, touched the reel next to it, and after getting familiar with it, he threw the fishhook far away, about five or six meters away. .

Not even ten seconds later, he felt a tugging force on the hook, and a fish took the bait.

"I'm coming."

The young people immediately leaned on the railing and watched excitedly.

"So fast?"

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

Ye Yaodong felt the pulling force coming from the fishhook, and slowly turned the hand lever with joy. When the fish automatically relieved its force, he quickly reeled in the line.

At this time, the fish on the hook was also exposed on the water, and everyone could see its true face.

"Damn it, it's Huangli Pomfret!" Ye Yaodong was pleasantly surprised. This fish definitely weighed five kilograms.

The young people also cheered instantly.

"It's a good start, okay."

"Pull it up quickly, this fish looks quite big."

Ye Yaodong kept reeling in the line happily, and Xiaoxiao simply took the long-handled fishing net on the side, helped him catch the fish, and put it on the deck.

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

"My butt is obviously going to be bigger than yours, okay?"

"Hahahaha~"

"It should be five pounds, right?"

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

….

Unexpectedly, the young man said playfully: "This fish you caught is yours. You can pick it up."

"ah?"

Hong Wenle smiled and said: "Indeed, there are buckets on the ship, you can just pick up any bucket."

"Okay, thank you very much."

Ye Yaodong happily picked up the fish. Ah Zheng saw the opportunity and directly brought a bucket to him, and said enviously, "Okay, Dongzi, you got a fish for nothing!"

The fat man also said with envy: "Such a big yellow pomfret costs two yuan per pound."

Xiaoxiao also said: "This one weighs about five kilograms."

"No work in vain!"

He weighed the fish in the bucket, put the bucket in the corner, and turned his attention to those people.

I saw that the young man who was helping to hang the bait took the lead and threw the hook towards the sea. The others were not willing to lag behind, and stood in a row and threw out one after another.

Not even 30 seconds after the result, the young man next to him shouted ecstatically while reeling in the line, "I hit it, I hit it!"

Everyone looked over in surprise...

"Ah, it's just black sea bream!" The young man's voice sounded slightly disappointed.

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

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

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, his fishing rod also moved. He didn't care about talking and immediately turned the reel to reel in the line. He found that the fish seemed a bit big, so he had to keep paying out or reeling in the line to cushion the fish. resistance.

"Ah, it's the red sweettail..."

His friends were the first to shout excitedly.

Ye Yaodong also looked at it in surprise. It was Du's amberjack. Some people would call it red sweettail. In fact, its scientific name is Zhanghongyu.

This amberjack is not that big, it is only half a meter long, but compared to other fish, it is already very large.

Hong Wenle was so surprised that he kept fishing the fish until the fish had no more strength, then he reeled in the line. He had fished before and had some experience, so he was better than others.

"Ah, such a big one, this one is half a meter long, right?"

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

"Ah, I've moved here too..."

"Me too……"

No one else could care to look at Hong Wenle's amberjack, and all turned their attention to their own fishing rods.

Hong Wenle happily took the fish off and threw it on the deck.

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

For sea fishing, fish prefer to bite hooks 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.

Moreover, some small fish that like to make nests return to their nests to rest at night, and big fish begin to come out to look for food. The probability of catching big fish at night is greater.

In addition, tidal changes seriously affect the activities of marine fish. Most offshore fish will migrate short distances with the rise and fall 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.

High tide is the best time for sea fishing, followed by ebb tide. Fish are least likely to bite the hook during flat tide and dead tide.

….

Today is the first day of the new year. The tide level is at its lowest at 12 o'clock at night. Now it is only after 7 o'clock, and it is still high tide.

Hong Wenle watched the others reeling in the line and was not in a hurry to bait. He wanted to see what fish the others had caught.

Ye Yaodong looked at the Du's amberjack on the deck and was about to remind him when he heard their excited shouts there.

"Ah, it's coming, it's coming..."

At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a "clucking" sound, which was a bit like a pig grunting.

"Ah...it's yellow chicken fish..."

"mine too…"

"Damn, mine too."

They took up the pole one after another, and when they saw that they were all yellow chickens and fish, they were all a little confused.

"Why are they all yellow chicken and fish?"

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

"It's so possible..."

"Did that sound just now come from the yellow chicken fish?"

Ye Yaodong felt itchy and couldn't help but give them some popular science, "The yellow chicken fish 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 fish it ashore. Its ‘clucking’ sound.”

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

"It's really special. Although this yellow chicken fish is not big, only 1 to 2 pounds, the impact of catching the fish is not ordinary. It feels so full that I thought I had caught a big fish. "

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

"You were lucky enough to catch a half-meter-long red sea bream first," said the young man named Zhiming who lent the fishing rod to Ye Yaodong. "You are all better than me, and mine is still black sea bream. Come again, Next time, I also want to catch a big fish."

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

"That's okay, anyway, we just got out and have a lot of time."

When Ye Yaodong saw them teasing and throwing the Du's amberjack into the bucket, he couldn't help but remind him, "You're just going to throw this fish into the bucket and ignore it?"

Just when he saw him throwing it on the deck, he wanted to ask.

"Ah? Otherwise?"

He said dumbfounded: "Mr. Hong, as long as the fish in this sea is hooked, the first thing to do after removing the hook is to bleed it. You can't just throw it there like this."

"Huh? Bloodletting???"

These young people don’t know anything, but they still want to learn how to fish?

"Marine fish swim fast and have strong athletic ability. As the fish continues to struggle after being caught, the accumulation of lactic acid in the fish meat will become more and more serious. The sour taste in the meat will increase at mild cases, and the color of the fish will change significantly in severe cases. Once the blood vessels are damaged If the fishhook is punctured, blood will seep into the muscles and cause congestion, which will greatly affect the color and taste of the fish.

"As lactic acid accumulates, the fish becomes 'burned' or damaged. The more damaged fish, the less valuable the fish is."

"So the purpose of bleeding is to make the fish die quickly and keep the meat as fresh as possible."

Hong Wenle was stunned for a while. He had fished before, but only on the shore of the pier when he was bored. He had never caught such a big fish. He had always only been responsible for eating.

….

Others were also confused when they heard this, but they also understood that this fish must be bled to preserve its freshness to the greatest extent.

"Thank you. I don't know if you don't tell me. I don't understand bloodletting either. Can you help me with bloodletting?"

"OK."

Anyway, I am idle, so let’s send Buddha to the West!

The method of bleeding is very simple. Use scissors or lure pliers to pull out part of the fish's gills, or directly cut off the connection between the gills and the body. Place it in a bucket until the blood flows out, and then bury it in ice for storage.

If you have a larger fish, you can add a knife to the tail to speed up bleeding, but this is not necessary.

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

Those young people watched him handle it with great interest, and they were glad to find someone who knew the stuff, otherwise it would have been a waste.

After the blood was drained, they started swinging the pole again.

Ah Zheng looked at Ye Yaodong washing his hands and couldn't help but mumbled in a low voice, "You don't understand anything, yet you still come fishing..."

"Shh..."

With the experience of taking the bait for the first time, this time they were more calm when the fish took the bait. But they didn't expect that this time everyone was hooked by yellow chicken fish!

Listening to the discussion of those people, the fat man couldn't help but poke his head out, "There are really a school of yellow chickens and fish down there!"

Ah Zheng nodded, "Definitely."

Xiaoxiao felt a little regretful, "Oh, how good would it be if I brought a fishing net? If I catch them all in one catch, I would make a fortune. It's so slow to fish one rod at a time."

Ye Yaodong looked at the dark water. Due to the night vision, he could not see anything. Even if there were schools of fish passing by, he could not see clearly unless they caused waves or jumped out of the water when they were hunting.

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

"Let's go out to fish at night sometime. There seem to be a lot of fish at night, and it looks like good fishing."

"Then it's better to go out and hunt at night. It might be more efficient."

Unfortunately, when they went out to sea at night, by the time the boat arrived at its destination, it was already dark, and they had never truly hunted at night.

"Everyone has his own fun..."

While they were chatting, Ye Yaodong suddenly noticed the sea in the distance.

“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. In an instant, there were exclamations one after another.
