Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1017 Fishing Strategy

"Correct!"

"We need to let Zhao Dahai see this place!"

Ding Dawen felt that Shi Guangming was right. No one had more say than Zhao Dahai as to whether there were fish in this place. As long as Zhao Dahai said there were fish in this place, they would definitely be able to catch fish tonight, and he could tell these people how to catch fish in this place.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming finished their breakfast, smoked for a while and talked for a while. They had stayed up all night last night and were a little tired now, so they went back to the cabin to sleep.

Ding Dawen waited for Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming to go back to sleep, and went to the live water tank. He carefully looked at some fish Zhao Dahai had caught last night. They were all alive and kicking, except for one that seemed a little bit strange. It took the super tube and made a fuss. It was placed alone in a live water tank. Zhao Dahai must have been very careful when fishing, but it was inevitable that some fish would die. Such fish must be placed together separately, and if they are really dead, they must be put in the refrigerator immediately.

3pm.

When Zhao Dahai woke up and walked into the cab, he immediately saw Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, who had woken up earlier than him.

"What are you talking about?"

Zhao Dahai picked up his cup of water and took several sips of the strong tea that had been brewed and cooled long ago. The slight sleepiness he felt just after waking up disappeared in an instant. When he came in just now, he seemed to hear what Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou were talking about.

Zhao Shizhu pointed to the sea at the bow of the fishing boat and said that when Ding Dawen stopped the fishing boat, he noticed that there was a place with flowing water on the sea, where several people were sitting just now, and what kind of fish could be caught in this place.

Zhao Dahai took a look and immediately saw that there was indeed flowing water on the water surface, but it was not very obvious and could not be seen if one did not pay attention. Only Ding Dawen's fishing boat was parked here and in the right position so it could be discovered. Other fishing boats, even including his own speedboat, would definitely not notice it if they passed by here.

"Brother Dawen."

"Your luck is really unbeatable. You can find a good place like this."

“This stream of water really looks something.”

Zhao Dahai really didn't expect that Ding Dawen noticed such a stream. It was not big, only about ten meters long in total, but streams were streams. Places like this would definitely attract groups of small fish at night, especially now that the big fishing boats were parked here. The lights would attract more small fish, and with small fish there would be big fish. It was really not difficult to catch fish in such a place, but it was hard to say whether you could catch a lot. It depended on whether a large number of small fish could gather here at night. The more small fish there were, the more likely it was that big fish would appear.

"Zhao Dahai."

"Is it possible to catch fish here tonight? What kind of fish can we catch?"

“How should I fish?”

Ding Dawen was very happy.

"It's hard to say what kind of fish it will be, but the most likely possibility is sea bass, and it may be a large sea bass. Or it may be some other fish."

"From what we can see now, the current here is not too big, it's just on the seashore. If there are fish, almost all of them will be concentrated on the water surface."

"It's very simple to catch this kind of fish. One way is to use the traditional floating shrimp. But you can't use lead, you have to use a float."

"Also, if you know how to use lures, it will be even easier to use wave crawlers."

When Zhao Dahai saw that the tide was not flowing heavily, he knew that the fish must be on the water. If he wanted to catch such fish, it would not be suitable to use a lead fishing rig, as it would sink immediately once it entered the sea. He would definitely have to use a float. Another option if he was alone was to use a lure. Sea bass that hunt on the water surface at night, especially the slightly larger ones, are very ferocious, and it is really not difficult to catch them.

"Row!"

"I'll go fishing at night and see if there are any fish!"

Ding Dawen decided to give it a try at night to see if he could catch fish in this place.

"Ding Dawen."

"Uncle Zhao and Uncle Shi are both on this fishing boat. They won't follow our speedboat out to sea to fish at night. They are veterans and they definitely know how to catch these fish."

Zhong Shizhu pointed to the sea in front of the fishing boat. An inexperienced person might be a little at a loss, but Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming had been at sea for many years and knew very well how to catch such fish.

"Isn't this obvious? Ding Dawen thinks that what Zhao Dahai said is right. What Uncle Zhao and Uncle Shi said is not convincing at all."

Lei Dayou knew very well what Ding Dawen was thinking, and Zhao Dahai was the master of fishing.

"Humph!"

"Lei Dayou."

"What do you mean by that?"

Lei Dayou turned his head and saw Shi Guangming and Zhao Shi walking in while smoking hookahs. The one who had just spoken was Shi Guangming, so he must have heard what he said.

"what!"

"Uncle Shi!"

"Isn't this obvious? In other matters, Zhao Dahai may not be as good as you, but when it comes to fishing, not to mention you, even if there are ten of you together, they are no match for Zhao Dahai."

"If Ding Dawen wants to go fishing, he must ask Zhao Dahai."

Lei Dayou told the truth.

Shi Guangming wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. There was really no way to refute this statement. Whenever anyone talked about fishing, they would definitely ask Zhao Dahai.

"Second Grandpa."

"Grandpa Shi."

"I just told Da Wen that there will definitely be fish here at night, but we just need to see how many or what kind of fish they are."

"I think it's most likely sea bass. It's not impossible that it's another fish, but the chances are not very high."

"You can catch fish here by using a float or a lure."

Zhao Dahai pointed to the flowing water on the sea surface about ten or twenty meters in front of the fishing boat and changed the subject.

"Who knows, we might be able to catch a thousand or several hundred kilograms of fish here tonight."

Shi Guangming really wanted to see how many fish he could catch tonight.

"One thousand or several hundred kilograms?"

"Grandpa Shi."

"If you have the strength, one person can catch more than 1,000 kilograms tonight."

Zhao Dahai smiled.

"No way? How can there be so many fish in this place?"

Shi Guangming was shocked. He was just talking casually, but Zhao Dahai now said that this place could catch several hundred kilograms or even several thousand kilograms of fish.

"Grandpa Shi."

"What's so strange about this?"

"The place where our fishing boats are docked now is not a place with many fish like artificial islands and reefs, but the sea surface is very wide and it is close to artificial islands and reefs."

"It's not that there are no fish in places like this, but generally speaking the fish are more scattered." "There is a small tidal flow here now."

"Plus, our fishing boats are parked here with lights, which will definitely attract small schools of fish."

"With the small fish around, other fish, especially sea bass, will definitely gather in this place at night."

"It's really hard to say how much there is, but if there is, it must be more than a few hundred kilograms."

Zhao Dahai is very familiar with the conditions of the sea surface.

Most fish go out at night, which is the time for hunting. If there are no reefs or places where the sea water flows cross, fish like sea bass will be very scattered, sometimes in one place and sometimes in another.

It is very difficult to catch these sea bass in this situation, but once there is a small school of fish gathered in a place on the sea, the sea bass around it will gather quickly.

The larger the sea surface, the more fish will gather.

"Yo!"

"In that case, why don't you just stay here and fish for sea bass tonight?"

Shi Guangming was very clear about his abilities and knew that fishing would be no problem, but he and Zhao Shi were both over 70 years old and did not have the physical strength to catch many fish. Although Ding Dawen and the other people on the fishing boat were young, they lacked experience in fishing and could certainly catch fish, but it was impossible to catch the most fish in the shortest time.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou are not only experienced but also strong. Once a large school of fish appears here, they can catch a lot of fish in a very short time.

Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment. He had just analyzed with Shi Guangming that it was possible to catch a lot of fish tonight. He never thought that he would stay here to fish.

Do you want to do it this way?
Zhao Dahai was a little hesitant.

I planned to take a short rest after dinner and then go out to the artificial islands.

It is definitely impossible to go to the trench before dark. Instead, you can go to other places where there are speedboats for fishing to see if other speedboats have caught fish, especially a lot of fish. If so, you can go fishing in such places at night.

I will go to the trench with Zhong Shizhu and others later. If there are no other speedboats nearby, we will start fishing immediately.

Now that we have analyzed this, it is very likely that a large school of sea bass will appear here tonight.

"The sea!"

"Going out to sea is just to make money. You can catch whatever fish you can. Big groupers are more valuable, but if you catch a big sea bass, especially if you can catch a lot, you can still make money."

"Sea bass is definitely easier to catch than giant grouper. For people like you and Zhong Shizhu, being able to fish very quickly and catch a lot of fish in a very short period of time may not necessarily mean you can earn less money than fishing for grouper."

Shi Guangming thought Zhao Dahai should stay and fish for the sea bass here.

Zhao Dahai nodded. There was nothing wrong with Shi Guangming's statement. Sea bass was definitely easier to catch than grouper. Once you encountered a school of sea bass, you could catch a lot of them in a very short time, and you could even earn much more money than fishing for grouper in the same amount of time.

Could it be that we have been staying here tonight and these few days to fish for sea bass?
The more Zhao Dahai thought about it, the more undecided he became.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Taiyou did not speak. In this situation, Zhao Dahai had to make the decision on his own.

"Isn't it still early? You guys will go out to sea later. If you see other places where you can catch fish, then go fishing there. If not, then go to the trench and see if there are other speedboats around. If there are, there's nothing to say. Come back here right away to see if there are any schools of fish here."

"If there are no other speedboats fishing in that part of the trench, you can try it there. If you can catch some fish, stay and fish. If you can't catch any fish or the fish are biting, come back here and see if there are any schools of sea bass."

"Anyway, you can fish wherever there are fish!"

"As long as you catch fish and make money, it doesn't matter what kind of fish you catch."

Zhao Shi thought about it seriously for a while and told Zhao Dahai his idea.

Zhao Dahai's eyes lit up. Zhao Shi's idea was very good.

It's not dark yet, so there's no way that sea bass would appear here. Zhong Shizhu and I can go somewhere else and see if we can find a place where we can catch fish.

If there are fish, go fishing. If there are no fish, you can come back here to see if the schools of sea bass have appeared, or you can go to the trench to see if you can catch any fish. If there are none, definitely come back here. If there are fish here, fish here. If there are no fish here, go another trip to other places on the artificial islands or reefs or in the trench.

"Second Grandpa!"

"Ginger is still old!"

"You still understand this matter clearly!"

"That's how we can do it!"

Zhao Dahai immediately made up his mind.

The meal had already been prepared in the kitchen and was brought up as soon as I called.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou quickly finished their meal, took a short rest, boarded the speedboat and headed straight for the artificial island.

"Will there be schools of sea bass here tonight?"

Shi Guangming watched Zhao Dahai's speedboat quickly leave, and soon only a black dot was left.

"Who can say for sure about this? But what Zhao Dahai said just now makes a lot of sense. The surrounding sea is so vast, and it is right next to the artificial island reef."

"There are definitely fish, and there are a lot of them, but they are relatively scattered. But at night, the lights of the fishing boats, plus the tides and currents here, attract small schools of fish."

"The potential for a large school of sea bass to appear is very high."

As Zhao Shi spoke, he pointed to the sea around the fishing boat. It was very wide, and there couldn't be no fish in such a place. They must be scattered everywhere. Once some fish gathered together, they would form a large school of fish, which would make fishing very convenient, and a lot of fish could be caught.

"I really hope it gets dark now to see if the fish will show up."

Shi Guangming was very anxious.

"Why are you acting like a child now?"

"It's still early now. Another thing is that even if it's really dark now, it's hard to say when the fish will appear."

"It's impossible that the fish will appear in front of you as soon as it gets dark, right?"

Zhao Shi felt that Shi Guangming was really too anxious.

"Correct!"

"Grandpa Shi!"

"There's no need to rush this matter. The fishing boat is right here. If there are fish, we'll fish. If there aren't any, we'll just wait!"

"We don't need to fish to make money, so there's no need to rush!"

Ding Dawen picked up a piece of meat and put it into his mouth. His idea was exactly the same as Zhao Shi's.
