Chapter 598 Sea Pigs Surround the Mullet

Ye Yaodong had been busy collecting the fishing nets and hadn't paid much attention. After hearing what his father said, he looked up and found that the boat seemed to have not moved for a long time.

Logically speaking, whether it is trawling or collecting the net, the boat is traveling at a constant speed. It will only stop for a while after collecting the fishing net and before launching the net.

"Did someone's boat break down? But I didn't see anyone calling for help. We are right here. If there is a problem and we need to call for help, someone will definitely wave the little red flag."

"That's right. Are you sorting out the net after dragging it? Sorting the fish? Impossible."

"Well, after collecting the net, I will definitely arrange and re-lay it as soon as possible. Then one person can sail the boat and one person can put down the net and sort it out. Forget it, don't worry about others. As long as it doesn't affect us, it's okay. How long do they stay on the sea surface?"

"I'm afraid something will happen. Many people die at sea every year. Two days ago, I heard that two bodies floated to the shore of the pier. People living near the pier saw it, and several families gathered together Drag the body up, pull it up the mountain and bury it.”

Ye Yaodong also heard Lin Xiuqing say it at home, and it was his neighbor's sister-in-law who said it.

"Forget it, one more thing is worse than one less thing. Who knows what kind of people are on the opposite boat?"

Don't be a disgusting person. When the time comes to find trouble for yourself, his father is still too simple.

"Okay, then let's drag our net, and if anyone passes by and comes close, we can take a look at it then."

"Well, let's put it in the Internet cafe."

After the father and son said a few words, they began to work again, but their attention was always focused on the boat in the distance.

The boat still didn't move when they finished lowering the fishing nets and moved forward at a constant speed.

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but be a little curious. What's wrong with people stopping there?

Everyone at sea is trying to tow as much cargo as possible. Just tow as much cargo as possible. How can we waste time stopping there?

Take a poop, stick your butt out, and the boat is also working.

After driving around the sea area, he couldn't help but get closer to the other party's boat. He wanted to say that he was working normally anyway, and it was normal to get closer during the trawling process.

Because he thought that when they encountered a school of fish, their boat was also parked there to catch a big fish, but it didn't stay as long as they did, because the fish school was moving, and they had to leave after catching one or two nets. ship to catch up.

There was one time when a school of electric rays unexpectedly electrocuted the fish, and suddenly there were densely packed small yellow croakers floating on the sea surface, so they stayed for a long time to fish.

Thinking of this, he was also a little excited, but he really encountered another school of fish. The boat was there to catch a lot of fish, so it was stopped for so long.

"Dad, the boat is still not moving. Let's go over and take a look?"

"Well, then go over and have a look. I just told you to go over and have a look."

"Aren't you afraid of causing unnecessary trouble? But it does feel a bit abnormal, so let's just trawl past it normally and take a look."

If they really encounter a school of fish, they can also get a share of the pie.

"Um."

Ye Yaodong adjusted the direction slightly. The ship was still traveling at a constant speed of three to four knots per hour, and did not speed up suddenly, so as not to make the other party think they were going to do something.

As the distance got closer, the boat still didn't move, and some of it just drifted and swayed with the current.

Gradually, they also saw people on the boat. It seemed that two people had been lying on the edge of the boat.

Moreover, something seems to be popping up on the sea?

Ye Yaodong couldn't help but doubt now. Did they really encounter a school of fish? Salvage in progress?

Father Ye also craned his neck to look over and murmured, "Could he have encountered a school of fish? Otherwise, why would he not be moving? What is that black thing? Is it a fish, so big? They are Stop there to catch those big fish?”

"There must be a big fish, otherwise it wouldn't stop there."

As the father and son talked, their hearts became a little hot.

"You'll know if you get closer."

"Sewing the net as we drive, otherwise we won't be able to stop for a while."

During the process of raising the net, the fishing net cannot stop. Once it stops, the net will sink to the bottom.

Fortunately, it didn't take long to put down the net. There shouldn't be much goods inside, and the net hoisting machine can lift the net very quickly.

The father and son kept their eyes fixed forward and never moved away.

After getting a little closer, they also discovered that it turned out to be an acquaintance's boat.

"Ouch? The logo on the boat seems to belong to your Uncle Lin?"

Ye Yaodong also noticed it and felt a little familiar, "Is it really true?! Such a coincidence?"

They are acquaintances, so they don't have to worry about getting close.

After the distance got closer, they also confirmed that the fish that appeared from time to time on the sea were big fish.

"Oh, this looks quite big from a distance. You, Uncle Lin, are so lucky. If I had known, I would have driven here earlier. I told you to drive over and have a look. You still don't believe me?" After Father Ye saw it clearly, he said It's a pity that it came late.

Hindsight!

Ye Yaodong was stained.

"Who knows this? Aren't I afraid of provoking trouble? Last year we got the ambergris and you forgot?"

"Don't pull those, hurry up and go forward and take a closer look."

"Who doesn't know that it is closer? It takes time to drive this boat, will it fly?"

Ye Yaodong's mouth was on his mouth, and he thought to be approaching quickly. It was so long, and it was okay to drink some soup without eating meat.

Both father and son expected to see a large school of fish when they got closer, but they didn't expect that when they got closer, Uncle Lin's boat suddenly started to move.

"Is this all done, or have the fish started to move?"

Ye Yaodong didn't say a word and just continued to move forward. The fishing net was still being collected. If the fish started to move, they wouldn't be able to stop.

Father Ye didn't expect him to answer. The two of them stayed together, so it was strange that he could determine what the situation was.

Just to prepare early, he hurried to the cabin to take out the hand-thrown net and prepare it, so as not to be blinded in a moment.

When only a little of their fishing nets were brought up, they also saw a small black shadow on the sea ahead.

Uncle Lin's boat was chasing and casting the net.

"And, and..."

Father Ye said excitedly, holding the hand-thrown net he had just arranged in advance.

Ye Yaodong also speeded up a little and followed. He slowed down after driving next to a school of fish. Father Ye spotted the school of fish and quickly cast the net out.

They didn't care to say hello at this time, and planned to fish first.

The two boats went in tandem, with a small school of fish separated in the middle, and each cast and closed their nets.

Ye's father quickly collected the net as soon as he cast it out, then hung the fishing net on the rolling wheel and used the rolling wheel to collect the net.

As Ye Yaodong sailed the boat, he paid attention to the trawl net behind him to see if it had been reeled in.

When Father Ye's hand-thrown net gradually closed up and was pulled to the side of the boat, they also saw clearly that the dark school of fish was a school of black mullet.

"It's a black mullet. No wonder this small area is so dark, and what kind of big fish pops up in front of it from time to time? It looks a bit like a dolphin?"

"You'll have a good look later. Let's catch some and take a look." Ye Yaodong kept paying attention to the front, back, left and right. "To close this net, let's first pull up the stern trawl net from the stern slide."

"good."

After the fishing boat on the opposite side collected a net, Uncle Lin shouted to them: "So that boat in the distance was yours? I thought it was it, but you guys came a step too late."

Father Ye shouted while closing the net: "We didn't know it was you, otherwise we would have come closer. Fortunately, we can still catch a little in time."

"It's almost gone..."

It is indeed almost gone, only a small piece.

When Ye Yaodong was casting his father's net, he also saw baskets of black mullet on Uncle Lin's boat. There were quite a lot of them. According to his estimate, there should be thousands of catties. He didn't know that they caught them in that short time. How many networks are there.

Alas, all the fish were caught by them! All the money was made by them, and he could only drink soup.

During the spawning period, black mullet are particularly sensitive to the temperature and salinity of seawater. When winter comes, as the air temperature and seawater temperature drop, schools of black mullet in the northwest Pacific will move south in groups to find sea areas suitable for spawning.

Therefore, when the weather turns cold in December, black mullet often swim south along the west coast of the bay and spawn in the surrounding waters.

Not only the black mullet, but also three big fish that looked like sea pigs were on Uncle Lin's boat.

He also shouted to Uncle Lin, "Uncle, are those on your boat just sea pigs?"

"Yes, that's why I said you were late. A group of sea pigs led a school of black mullets and stayed there just now, and it was completely dark. I just happened to drag the net there and encountered it, so I quickly set up a net to fish around. "

"What luck!"

"You were also dragged nearby by trawl, right?"

"We have been trawling the area around here, but we didn't expect to run into you today."

"I just happened to drag the trawl here. I always feel that there will be a few more trawlers in the second half of the year. We also encountered one before you, so we came here."

There are more and more fishing boats, which is inevitable.

Ye Yaodong saw his father put the net aside after collecting it, and then quickly ran to the stern of the boat to collect the net. He also quickly stopped the boat and went to the stern to help.

The fishing net itself is very heavy, and it is difficult for one person to pull it up.

But when he just ran to the stern of the boat, his father shouted: "Dongzi, come and help, there are two sea pigs inside!"

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

He quickened his pace and ran over. His father was struggling to pull the fishing net. He rolled up his sleeves and quickly got started.

The two of them worked together to pull the trawl onto the boat, where the two largest sea pigs were still twitching a few times.

“I didn’t expect that there would be bargains to be found, and there were two at once.”

Father Ye was also very happy, "It's okay, it's okay, I can still catch up, I can drag it up to both ends, and I can sell it for a lot of money."

"Let it go for now. I'll go sail the boat and see if I can catch up with the school of black mullet again. You go and pour out all the fish in the hand net, and then cast one or two nets."

"Why…"

There's another one waiting for two o'clock, no, don't wait, I'll see it tomorrow
