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

Chapter 1198: Using the Bottom to Exchange Fish
Ding Chongshan, Gao Zhicheng and Wu Weimin immediately cast their fishing rods. Zhao Dahai's speedboat was very large. Although there were so many people on it, there was no shortage of fishing spots, it was just a little crowded.

"coming!"

"A fish has taken the bait!"

……

"Not very big, really quite small, it's just a sesame spot weighing five or six kilograms."

……

"Mine is a little bigger, but still a little small, only about 17 or 18 pounds!"

……

Ding Chongshan, Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua and Wu Guodong caught fish one after another, but the fish caught by each person was not big, and the largest one weighed no more than 20 kilograms.

"How come Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu and others can't stop fishing? And they catch one fish after another?"

Gao Zhicheng caught a few fish and then stopped.

In about an hour, he and Wu Weimin and others all caught grouper, but most of them were small and each person only caught a few, with the least being two and the most being four.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou were very fast at fishing and caught seven or eight fish in the same amount of time.

Zhao Dahai caught about twelve or thirteen fish, and these were almost the biggest ones.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou all make money by fishing. They must seize the time, it is impossible for them to fish for a while and rest for a while like themselves and Wu Weimin, and fish if they can, but it is obviously easier than themselves.

"When we catch fish, Zhong Shizhu and his team will definitely be able to catch fish. When we can't catch fish, Zhong Shizhu and his team will still be able to catch fish."

Wu Guodong nodded, he also discovered the same thing.

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

"People like us only come here to fish from time to time."

"Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu have been fishing here all day long. After fishing so many times, they are very familiar with the structure of the sea. They know exactly where there are fish and where there are no fish, and what kind of techniques are needed to catch fish in what kind of places."

"It's not possible to catch fish 100% of the time, but it's definitely more than what we or other people catch."

Ding Chongshan took the cigarettes and gave one to each person.

These people go out to sea to fish just for fun, there is no need to do it for money. Moreover, the fishing time is too short, and they are definitely not familiar with the seabed structure of the artificial islands and reefs.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou often fish here. After fishing for a long time, they really know every inch of the place clearly. Not only are they not likely to get stuck in the bottom of the alley, they really know where the fish are much better than ordinary people and are more likely to catch fish.

"Correct!"

"That's it!"

"When Zhao Dahai brought us here to fish, there weren't many speedboats fishing around!"

“This is the fifth time we have come here to fish at this fishing spot for speedboat fishing.”

“It’s impossible not to be familiar with it.”

"In fact, every time I come here, there are some small changes, but the changes are not too big."

"Just be careful!"

Lei Dayou took out the lighter from his pocket, lit the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep puff, and while speaking he kept staring at the pole clamped on the gun mount. When he saw it shake slightly twice, he immediately concentrated his attention, and after two minutes he pulled it down hard.

Lei Dayou was well prepared. He pushed the switch of the electric winch hard to reel in the line, and the rod bent even more sharply.

Lei Dayou stared at the rod for a while and thought that the fish caught was most likely a red spot, so he immediately slowed down.

"Not big!"

"About three or five pounds!"

Lei Dayou was a little disappointed.

Red spot is very valuable. Three to five kilograms is already very good, but if it is ten or eight kilograms, it will be even more valuable and you can make a lot of money at once.

"what!"

"Lei Dayou!"

"What's wrong with you? Have you been fishing with Zhao Dahai for too long and caught too many fish?"

"It's fine if other groupers are not worth paying attention to, but red groupers are not worth paying attention to either."

"This is really a bit too much!"

Wu Guodong shook his head.

Zhong Shizhu, Lei Dayou and Liu Bin were people who went out to sea to fish.

I used to be very happy if I could catch a red snapper weighing three or five kilograms when setting out the fishing net, but now I don’t care about it at all. This is really because I have caught too many fish when I went fishing with Zhao Dahai, and now I don’t care about such small fish.

"It's not that I don't like these three or five jin red snapper, but I think if I catch ten or eight jin, I can make a lot of money!"

"There is no way."

"We all go fishing to make money, so we definitely want to catch big fish!"

"There is a big difference in the price of a 3-5 kg ​​red spot and a 10-8 catties one."

Lei Da didn't refute, but nodded with a smile. He really looked down on this three-pound red spot.

“This is really weird!”

“There really aren’t any big groupers!”

Wu Weimin was very surprised.

It was normal that he and Ding Chongshan couldn't catch a big grouper, but Zhao Dahai couldn't catch a big grouper either.

If you can't catch any fish, it means there are no fish in the sea. But now, not only are we catching fish, but we are catching a lot of them. This means that there is really no chance of catching any big fish today.

"The seabed structure of the artificial island reef is very complex."

“It’s very easy to get stuck.”

"If you fish in places like this, you can only fish at the edge of the seafloor structure of the artificial islands and reefs, and most of the fish there are smaller."

"The big groupers all hide in the middle of the more complex islands and reefs. It's really difficult to fish in such places."

"Or maybe fishing stuck at the bottom is very serious in places like this."

"You may have to catch fish eight out of ten times, and you may not even be able to catch fish in the remaining two times."

"If you just want to catch big fish, you can definitely give it a try, but we go out to sea to fish and make money, so we can't do it this way. Don't look at the groupers we've caught now, they're not too big, but they're not small. The key is that there are more of them, so it's definitely more cost-effective. Only in this way can we make money. Otherwise, we'll be stuck on the bottom all day and get so tired that we can't catch many fish."

“I can’t even make back the money I spent on gas.”

"A few days ago, we were able to catch a large grouper. That was because the large grouper moved from the middle of the artificial reef, which is a bit more complicated and cannot be caught normally, to the edge."

Zhao Dahai knew that Wu Weimin and his men went out to sea to catch big fish. It was not that there were no big fish in the artificial islands and reefs, but they usually hid in deeper and more complicated places, so it was difficult to catch them. You even had to consider the right time and place, or like a few days ago, they ran from the depths of the islands and reefs to the edge of the islands and reefs, so that you would have a chance to catch them.

The problem is that there aren't many opportunities like this.

People like me and Zhong Shizhu go out to sea to fish every day, so there is a high chance of running into them. People like Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng cannot go out to sea to fish every day, so it is even more difficult to run into them.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng and Ding Chongshan are all people with rich fishing experience. After Zhao Dahai said this, they immediately understood what was going on.

"Ugh!"

"Now that I think about it, I really regret going back two days ago. If I had known earlier, I would have followed your speedboat to go fishing!"

Wu Weimin felt even more regretful, but there was nothing he could do about this kind of thing.

"Boss Wu."

"If you really want to catch a big grouper here, there is a way. Isn't there a speedboat out here? You can drive the speedboat here tomorrow."

"The method is very simple, just like what I said last night, use bottom hanging to change fish."

"If you try more often, you will definitely be able to catch fish."

Zhao Dahai saw the red spotted fish caught by Lei Dayou pulled out of the water. He reached out to grab the scoop net and put it on the deck.

The seabed structure here is indeed very complex. It is not easy to catch big grouper, but it is not too difficult.

There is no need to worry about whether the fish are stuck on the bottom or not, and there is no need to consider how many fish to catch in a day. If you fish for a few more days, you will definitely have the chance to catch some fish.

People like us would definitely not do such a thing.

If people like Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng really want to do it, then there is absolutely no problem.

"This is indeed a solution, but why do I always feel that this solution is a little bit wrong?"

"There's no skill involved in fishing this way, and I just can't accept it."

Wu Weimin hesitated.

The method Zhao Dahai just mentioned is very simple, and the key is that it is really useful, and it is very likely to catch a large grouper.

But I don’t know why, I always feel that it is a bit unacceptable.

"Pooh!"

"Wu Weimin!"

"What's the difference between your thoughts and Lei Dayou's feeling that a three- to five-jin red spot is unacceptable and worthless?"

"Before I met Zhao Dahai, wasn't this how you went fishing? Could it be that any boat boss could have allowed you to catch fish without hanging on the bottom?"

Ding Chongshan couldn't help but laugh when he heard Wu Weimin's words. When going out to sea to fish, especially when people like us fish, most of the time we use the method Zhao Dahai just mentioned.

It is better to fish for fish like black porgy, yellow porgy or yellow chicken, but once you fish for fish like big grouper, you will have to get stuck on the bottom.

It is common to be hung up dozens of times a day.

"what!"

"Alright alright!"

"I used to fish like this. I really don't know how many times I got stuck in the bottom of the river in a day, and I still couldn't catch any fish."

“If I can catch a fish in three to five days, it’s already very good and very satisfying!”

"I've been fishing with Zhao Dahai for a year, and it's been very easy. I've gradually forgotten how I used to fish, and I feel like this way of fishing isn't working anymore!"

Wu Weimin laughed out loud.

"Ding Chongshan!"

"Gao Zhicheng!"

"How about we do this someday?"

Wu Weimin looked at Ding Chongshan, then at Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua, Wu Guodong and others.

The method Zhao Dahai mentioned is indeed very good and very easy. We can really give it a try.

"We could have used this method when we came here yesterday afternoon. We just fished hard in one place and we might have caught a big grouper."

"It's a pity that we didn't think of this. Otherwise, why would we have to go back empty-handed?"

Lin Zuhua nodded immediately.

"Aren't we going out to sea to troll for big mackerel?"

"If we can catch some mackerel tomorrow morning, we can do that. If not, we can come here after lunch to catch some big grouper and see if there's any chance of that happening."

"There are five of us in total. If we don't mind getting stuck, and keep fishing in one place, there will always be a chance to catch something!"

Wu Guodong agreed immediately.

Ding Chongshan, Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua and Wu Guodong were chatting about tomorrow's fishing arrangements. When they saw Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu catching one grouper after another, which were not big but not too small, none of them were very interested in fishing for such small fish, so they just took a break. When they saw Zhao Dahai and the others catch the fish, they took the scoop net to help scoop the fish.

Five p.m.

The sun was setting, and suddenly the entire sea was covered with sunlight.

The weather is very good.

Ding Chongshan opened the refrigerator and took out a bag of ice. He tore open a hole in it and poured it into the live water tank. He reached out to test the temperature of the sea water inside and it immediately became cold.

"Zhao Dahai."

"We have to go back. If we continue fishing, there might be problems with the fish in the live water tank!"

Ding Chongshan called out to Zhao Dahai.

The temperature of the seawater in the live water tank has dropped, which has little impact on the fish. As long as you add a little ice from time to time and keep an eye on it, there won't be any problems.

But the number of fish was really too much. The two large live water tanks in front and behind were already full of fish. There were several net bags filled with fish hanging on the side of the speedboat.

If you continue fishing, you will definitely be able to catch fish, but the problem is that the fish you have already caught may die, which is really not cost-effective.

Zhao Dahai carefully looked at the fish in the live water tank, and then looked at the fish in the net bag hanging on the side of the speedboat. Without much hesitation, he decided to go back immediately.

"Uncle Shizhu."

"Let's see if we can put all the fish in the net bag into the live water tank!"

"I see there are already quite a few speedboats here this afternoon. We have to hurry up and fish."

"We'll go back to the fishing boat to eat and sleep for three or four hours before we go out to sea again."

Zhao Dahai pointed to the net bag hanging next to the speedboat and called out loudly to Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou.
