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

Chapter 1037 Some people watch the fish, some people fish
"what?"

"Who's coming?"

Ding Dawen was a little curious.

It was almost dark, and the lights on the sea were very clear. Not too far away from my fishing boat, I could see bright lights coming towards me.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming did not go fishing with Zhao Dahai. When they saw this situation, they immediately left the cab and walked to the bow of the fishing boat. After waiting for a while, a speedboat came over. They could see clearly that it was Ding Xiaoxiang, Ding Chongshan, Lin Zuhua and an unfamiliar person on board.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming shouted loudly to Ding Dawen to lower the boat ladder. After a while, the speedboat stopped, and Ding Xiaoxiang, Ding Chongshan, Lin Zuhua and Song Wei got on the big fishing boat.

"Brother Dawen."

"This is Boss Song Wei, who is here to check out the fish on the fishing boat. Take him to see the groupers and sea bass in the live water tank."

Ding Xiaoxiang pointed at Song Wei and told Ding Dawen to take him to see the fish.

Ding Dawen nodded, turned around and walked towards the live water tank with Song Wei.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua greeted Zhao Shi and Shi Guangping.

"Aren't you two busy with your business? Why did you come here? And at this time of the day."

Zhao Shi brought Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua back to the cab, feeling a little confused. He didn't know what they were doing here at this time. Song Wei came to buy fish, but this matter didn't require Ding Chongshan, especially Lin Zuhua.

"Second Uncle Zhao."

"Lin Zuhua and I are not here for any reason! We are here just to go fishing. There is nothing to do recently, right? Why don't we just go out and fish for a few days for fun?"

Ding Chongshan looked left and right as he spoke. He had been on the fishing boat for quite some time, but he hadn't seen Zhao Dahai.

"Zhao Dahai went out to sea to fish with Zhong Shizhu and the others when it got dark!"

"These days, I go out at night most of the time and fish until dawn or even noon the next day before returning to the fishing boat."

When Shi Wenming saw Ding Chongshan's expression, he knew that he was looking for Zhao Dahai, but Zhao Dahai had already gone out to sea. If it was early, he would be back tomorrow morning, and if it was late, he would not be back until noon or even in the evening. If he wanted to go fishing, he could only wait for Zhao Dahai to come back before going out to sea.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua were a little disappointed, but they knew that once Zhao Dahai went out to sea, it would not be easy to find him, so they had to wait until Zhao Dahai came back.

"dad!"

"Why do you and Uncle Lin need to be so anxious? Get some good sleep and wait for the sea to come back so that you will have enough strength to go fishing again."

Ding Xiaoxiang smiled. It was obvious that her hands were itching to start fishing. However, Zhao Dahai had already gone out to sea and there was no one there, so she couldn't fish even if she wanted to.

"correct!"

"Didn't Zhao Dahai catch a lot of sea bass on our fishing boat two nights ago? From that night to the next morning, the four of us caught nearly 10,000 kilograms of fish."

"It's impossible to catch so many fish tonight, but no matter what, there is still a certain chance of catching some fish."

"If you have nothing to do now, just give it a try."

"I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway."

"If you can catch some, you can catch a few. That way you can have something to eat at night. If you can't catch any, you can kill some time and wait for a fish to come out of the cabin later so you can have something to eat."

"correct!"

"Didn't we put out some crab pots these past two days? Let's pull them up and take a look. There's definitely enough for one meal."

Shi Guangming thought of the fact that Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu and others caught 10,000 kilograms of sea bass a few nights ago. There was no tide tonight, so it would definitely not be like the previous few days, but there would definitely be fish. If he was lucky, he could catch a few. He could make some fish soup later, and get some other things and have a good meal.

"Is the place where Zhao Dahai and his crew caught 10,000 kilograms of sea bass right next to this fishing boat?"

Lin Zuhua was shocked. Ding Xiaoxiang had already told him about this on the way here. What he didn't expect was that he was fishing right next to this big fishing boat. This was not a fishing spot, but just an ordinary place where fishing boats docked. How could he catch so many fish?

Shi Guangming proudly recounted in detail what had happened a few nights ago.

Lin Zuhua patted his forehead. This matter sounded really strange, but if you think about it carefully, it is not a strange thing. Zhao Dahai just has this ability. If he found that there was a tide and a current in front of the fishing boat, as long as the tide and the current were not particularly strong, he would definitely not pay special attention to it. He would not think of shining the light on the position of the tide and the current to attract small fish and then big fish. It is even more impossible to think of simply using Antarctic shrimp to make a nest in this place.

"Hey!"

"What a shame! We weren't here a few days ago. If we were here, we would have had a great time."

Lin Zuhua has been busy with company affairs recently and has not gone out to sea to fish much. His hands have been itching for a long time. He thinks about going out to sea to fish every day and even dreams about going out to sea to fish a few nights. When Ding Chongshan called him, he immediately agreed, packed up his things and rushed over. Now he heard that just two days ago, Zhao Dahai caught 10,000 kilograms of sea bass in this place. He was very annoyed and wondered why he didn't come earlier.

"Ding Chongshan."

"I say, what the hell is going on with you? Why don't you just ask me to go fishing a few days in advance?"

Lin Zuhua turned his head and saw Ding Chongshan, who was standing next to him, complaining.

"How should I know this? If I had known this earlier, I would have asked you to go fishing early in the morning."

Ding Chongshan also felt very regretful. If he had gone out to sea to fish two days earlier, he would have definitely encountered this incident. Although he had been fishing for so many years, he had never encountered the situation of catching 10,000 kilograms of sea bass in one night.

"Why shouldn't you care about this? Zhao Dahai is fishing here. You just need to take a good rest and wait to go out to sea to fish. What we are afraid of is not that we won't catch any fish, but that you don't have the energy to keep fishing."

Shi Guangming waved his hand. Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua didn't need to worry about this. There was always a shortage of fish to catch on Zhao Dahai's speedboat. What they were worried about was that they didn't have the physical strength to catch so many fish.

"Correct!"

"Yes."

"That's it!"

"There's no need to worry about not having fish to catch on Zhao Dahai's speedboat. The only thing to worry about is that you don't have enough physical strength to catch that many fish."

Lin Zuhua suddenly laughed.

This was not the first time that I had gone out to sea on a speedboat, so I knew exactly what was going on.

Have a good meal and drink, have a good sleep, get enough rest, wait for Zhao Dahai to come back and go fishing again.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua immediately began to prepare the fishing rods. They didn't know if there were any fish near the fishing boat, but they had to give it a try first to see if they could catch any. If they could, they would fish. If not, they would wait for Zhao Dahai to come back.

"Second Grandpa."

"Grandpa Shi."

"Are you used to being on a fishing boat? If not, come back to the dock later. You can stay at home for a while and think about going out to sea when you can."

Ding Xiaoxiang stood next to Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming, watching them fishing and talking.

Song Wei and Ding Dawen are now watching the fish in the cabin. If there is no problem, they will wait for Zhao Dahai to come back and the fishing boat will return to the dock.

"What could possibly happen?"

"Wait for Zhao Dahai to come back, and then we'll see if we should follow the fishing boat back, or go out fishing on a speedboat and wait for Ding Dawen's fishing boat to come back here before we get on the fishing boat."

Zhao Shi waved his hand.

Ding Xiaoxiang has always been a little worried that she and Shi Guangming are too old and will spend too much time on the fishing boat, but there is really no problem in this regard. She and Shi Guangming are more willing to stay on the fishing boat. Ding Xiaoxiang has no choice.

My idea is that Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming can go out to sea, but they don’t need to stay for such a long time. But now, Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming really want to stay on the fishing boat.

Shi Guangming and especially Zhao Shi are his elders. He could try to persuade them, but there was really no way he could force Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming to go back.

"what!"

"Ding Xiaoxiang!"

"As for other matters, Uncle Zhao and Uncle Shi might have to listen to you, but they definitely won't listen to you about this matter!"

"You really don't need to worry about this."

"Isn't Zhao Dahai here? And isn't Ding Dawen on the fishing boat? And he's on the fishing boat 24 hours a day."

"Is there something you don't know how to deal with?"

After listening to a few words, Lin Zuhua knew what Ding Xiaoxiang was talking about.

"Correct!"

"It's really nothing!"

"If I don't understand this after living my whole life, then there's nothing to say!"

Shi Guangming smiled and stared at the side of the fishing boat. Lin Zuhua and Ding Chongshan had already started fishing.

At night, the deck of the fishing boat is lit with lights on. There are some small fish on the sea around the fishing boat, but there are not too many of them. There may be fish, but not necessarily. Whether there are fish or not depends on whether you can catch them or not.

"It's a pity that there is no flowing water tonight in the area about ten meters away from the bow. If there was flowing water, it would be a good place!"

Shi Guangming pointed to the location where there was tidal flow in front of the bow of the fishing boat a few days ago. He had just checked it and there was no movement there tonight.

In this case, even if the light is shone on that place, it will be useless and there won't be too many fish.

The key is that there is no tide, no current, so there is no way to catch Antarctic shrimp like Zhao Dahai did that night.

Speaking of which, there is no way to attract more fish to gather.

this is the key of the problem.

"It was great to have so many fish attracted by the tide that night. If there are so many fish to catch every day, there is no need to go somewhere else. I might as well stay here."

Zhao Shi really hopes that there will be a tide tonight, but such a good thing is not likely to happen often.

"Yo!"

"There are fish!"

Ding Chongshan shouted in a low voice, and couldn't help but tighten the pole in his right hand.

If you don’t fish, the fishing method is very simple, that is, floating shrimp. The target is sea bass or other big fish that want to eat the small fish attracted by the lights.

"Any fish?"

Lin Zuhua suddenly became nervous.

"Correct!"

"There's definitely a fish. I felt the live shrimp he hung on the hook jump several times just now!"

Ding Chongshan was absolutely 100% sure that this was the case.

There must be fish under the sea now, otherwise the river hanging on the hook would not react like this.

Even though I have rarely gone fishing in recent years, I was a serious fishing expert when I was young.

Ding Chongshan didn't say anything else, and held the rod tightly in his hand.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming smoked one cigarette after another, staring at the rod in Ding Chongshan's hand.

Ding Xiaoxiang also didn't say anything, wondering if there really was a fish.

Ding Chongshan waited for a while, but there was no movement. After thinking for a while, he gently moved the rod in his hand and pulled the live shrimp hanging on the hook forward.

Ding Chongshan had just pulled the live shrimp forward less than a meter when he suddenly felt a huge force pulling on his rod.

Ding Chongshan lifted the pole upwards with all his strength.

"big!"

"Twenty pounds!"

Ding Chongshan shouted and quickly grasped the rod with both hands. The fish that was hooked was very active and had great strength, pulling the line and running forward non-stop.

"what!"

"Is this fish this big?"

Lin Zuhua was startled.

"How can it not be small?"

"Haven't you seen how crazy the qualifying has been?"

Ding Chongshan held the rod with both hands, and before he could turn the spinning wheel to pull the line back, the veins on his hands bulged.

"Have the 20-jin sea bass grown big? The fish that Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu caught a few days ago were all over 20 jin, and some were over 30 jin!"

"Ding Chongshan!"

"The rod you used is too soft and the line you used is too thin!"

"I don't think you'll be able to pull this fish back in twenty minutes!"

Shi Guangming saw what was going on at a glance.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou all used very hard fishing rods and very thick lines. Their purpose was to pull the fish back quickly once it was hooked, without wasting time.

The rod that Ding Chongshan is using now is relatively soft and the line is relatively thin. Once the fish is hooked, the pulling force is very strong, and it is impossible to pull it back in a short time.

"Hey!"

"I really regret it now. Why didn't I use a harder pole and a thicker line?"

Ding Chongshan felt a little regretful. He didn't expect to encounter such a big fish right next to the fishing boat. Now the fish is still running forward. The rod is soft and the line is thin, so he can't use force. To pull it back, he can only wait for the fish to be hooked and run away to consume a certain amount of energy before he can pull it back.
