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

Chapter 1454: You must use the fishing net!

"Correct!"

"We need fishing nets here. Otherwise, if Zhao Dahai and his team don't come to the fish farm and encounter this kind of weather, they can only watch the sea bass run away!"

Shi Guangming knew very well that if there really were schools of fish around the fish farm, especially such large schools of fish, it would really be no joke. At this time, Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu had already caught more than two thousand kilograms of sea bass. If they continued fishing, they really didn't know how many fish they could catch.

Every time there is a strong wind and big waves, the net cages here can catch more fish than usual.

But the fish in the sea are not stupid. It is impossible for every one of them to die and drill into the net cage. In fact, most of the fish will not drill into the net cage.

On the contrary, these fish will gather in large numbers on the sea surface around the fish plate. If you take advantage of this opportunity to put out the fishing net, you will definitely be able to catch more fish.

There is no one here at the fish farm who is capable of catching so many fish like Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou. The only way is to put out fishing nets.

"If we put a fishing net in this place, it will definitely attract other people's attention, right?"

"Will the others follow suit? Will they wait until the weather is stormy and all the fish run away and then set up fishing nets around the fish farm?"

Zhao Shimeng was a little worried about this matter.

Shi Guangming was stunned for a moment.

This is not just a possibility but a certainty.

As long as these people set up fishing nets near the fish farm and catch a lot of fish, the news will definitely spread. Someone will definitely know about this, and such things will definitely spread from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people. In the end, everyone will know and come here to set up fishing nets to catch fish.

This is not a good thing for the fishing raft.

There are actually a lot of fish here, and you can really make a lot of money, but if it affects the fish farms, it would be better not to put out fishing nets to catch these fish.

For people like us, even though there are many fish and they are valuable, we still don't take them seriously.

The fishing raft is the most important thing.

"Old man Zhao."

"We can't make a decision on this matter. We have to ask Zhao Dahai or Ding Xiaoxiang."

Shi Guangming thought about it for a long time but couldn't make up his mind. He could only point at Zhao Dahai who was fishing.

If there were not many fish in the sea, there would be no need to set out fishing nets to catch fish and attract other people's attention, but now it seems that this school of fish may be very large.

It's such a pity to let go of fish weighing thousands of kilograms in vain.

Zhao Shi thought about it and nodded. It was indeed like that. Neither he nor Shi Guangming could make a decision on this matter. He really had to ask Zhao Dahai.

Zhao Dahai fished for three hours in a row. Seeing that the fish in the sea did not seem to be as numerous or biting as fiercely as at the beginning, he called out to Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou and Liu Lei to take a break and wait to see if there were any fish to catch later.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou and Liu Lei originally wanted to continue fishing, but they knew that if there were really no fish here, it meant that the wind and waves had begun to slowly calm down, and they would have to go out to sea to fish soon, so they simply stopped.

Zhao Dahai looked back and saw that his second grandfather Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming had returned to the fish farm at some point, so he quickly walked over.

"How many fish did you catch?"

Shi Guangming was a little curious about how many fish Zhao Dahai had caught at the fish farm.

"The school of fish wasn't very large, so the fishing time wasn't too long. It was estimated to be less than four hours in total."

"I'm not sure about the exact weight, but I estimate it to be around 5,000 or 6,000 kilograms."

Zhao Dahai shook his head.

Just now, he and Zhong Shizhu and others were busy fishing, and the fish they caught were immediately put into the net cage next to them.

I really don't know how many fish we caught in total.

But there must be five thousand kilograms!

"Who would have thought that there would be so many fish gathering here in this weather?"

"I just came here with your second grandfather and discovered this. I was wondering if we should prepare fishing nets here. When the weather is like this, we can go to the sea and see if we can encounter a large school of fish!"

Shi Guangming went straight to the point and told Zhao Shi what he and he had just discussed and thought about. He was just a little undecided about whether to do it or not.

"Zhao Dahai."

"From today's situation, as long as the weather and water flow are similar, I estimate that there will be large schools of sea bass or other fish like today."

"We don't care about a hundred pounds, or even a thousand or a few hundred pounds. If we only weigh two or three thousand pounds, we really need to think about it carefully, not to mention five or six thousand pounds or more."

"You have to know that this is all real money. Other people can't catch this much fish in several days, let alone one day!"

Shi Guangming had a headache. This matter was really difficult to handle.

"Second Grandpa!"

"Grandpa Shi!"

"Why should we talk, think or worry about such things?"

"If there are fish in the sea, we must put out fishing nets, especially when Uncle Shizhu and I are not here."

"Just be sure to pay attention to safety!"

"There are always schools of fish, but the schools of fish here only appear in large numbers when the weather is a little bad!"

"Today's school of sea bass with big legs only appears when the water is flowing very fast!"

Without even thinking twice, Zhao Dahai immediately told Shi Guangming and Zhao Shi that this could be done and it really had to be done.

"what?"

"If we put fishing nets here, other people will definitely see it. Even if they don't see it, the news will spread. Then, won't many people come to our fish farm to exchange fishing nets? Will this have any impact on our fish farm?"

Shi Guangming didn't expect Zhao Dahai to be so straightforward and direct that they must put out fishing nets. "If we put out fishing nets in this place to catch fish, someone will definitely see it."

"Someone else will surely come here to stock meat and catch fish."

"But if there is any impact from people setting nets on our fish farms, it is very small, almost non-existent."

Zhao Dahai nodded, but immediately shook his head.

What Shi Guangming and his second grandfather Zhao Shi are worried about is not impossible to happen. In fact, if a lot of people come to the fish farm to place fishing nets, it will definitely have an impact on the fish farm, but this impact is not actually that big.

"Second Grandpa!"

"Grandpa Shi!"

"Under normal weather conditions, it's not that there are no fish at our fish farm, but you have to be very close to our fish farm to find fish."

"There aren't many fish in the surrounding areas a little further away, which is why these people can't catch many fish around here. In this case, there is no point in putting out fishing nets."

Zhao Dahai knew very well that after the fish raft was built, there would indeed be fish within a distance of two or three meters from the raft, and there would be quite a few fish, but no one would be allowed to fish or set fishing nets to catch fish within such a distance.

"The current wind and waves are actually quite strong."

"It's actually a bit dangerous to use fish balls to catch fish in this kind of wind and waves. Most people won't come here to set up fishing nets. Even if they know we caught a lot of fish here, they still have to think carefully."

Zhao Dahai pointed to the sea surface next to the fish farm as he spoke.

The wind and waves are actually much smaller at this time, but there are still at least half a meter high waves.

There will definitely be no problem for a large fishing boat, but for a smaller fishing boat or speedboat to go out to sea to set fishing nets in such weather is really no joke.

Everyone wants to make money, but if they can't make money and have to take risks or even lose their life, no one would be stupid enough to do such a thing.

"Another thing is that if you put beeswax like this into a fishing net in the sea, it will be easily washed away by the sea water."

"It is really not an easy task, almost impossible, to keep the fishing net steady and catch fish."

"It's very easy to lose both the wife and the army, and you have to put up the fishing net even if you can't catch any fish."

Zhao Dahai knew very well how difficult it was to set up a fishing net to catch fish in such a place and in such weather, or how difficult it was.

Even if someone sees that they can catch a lot of fish by setting fishing nets in this place, they would not dare to come here and try it easily.

Shi Guangming and Zhao Shi nodded continuously as they listened.

This is absolutely true.

There are only a few days in a year when the weather is this stormy.

When there are such strong winds and waves, other fishing boats that want to come here to drop their fishing nets really have to think carefully because one reason is that it is extremely dangerous and the other is that the fishing nets are very easily washed away by the sea water.

If you think about it this way, there aren't many people left who will actually come here to set up fishing nets to catch fish, so the impact on the fish farm won't be that big.

"How can we place fishing nets in this place without having to worry about what we just said?"

“What it comes down to is we have fish steaks here.”

"We don't have to drive a speedboat or a fishing boat to the surrounding area to put fishing nets on the sea. Instead, we can just put a little bit out from the fish farm, and the fishing nets will be enough."

"More importantly, the ropes of our fishing nets can be tied to the fish rafts, so there is no need to worry about the nets being washed away by wind and waves or sea water."

"We don't have to worry about these things!"

"In this case, as long as there are fish in the sea, why don't we put out some fishing nets to catch them? Or if Uncle Shizhu and I happen to come back here to rest, we will definitely go fishing for the fish here!"

Zhao Dahai saw this matter very clearly. As long as there were really fish in the sea and they were near the fish farm, there was no reason to let them go.

I didn't do this before because I didn't know there were no fish in the sea here. I just put a net cage here to catch fish.

Now that we know about this, it is definitely something we must do.

Can't we sell fish weighing at least a few hundred kilograms or at most a few thousand kilograms for money?
"Even if we can't keep these fish alive, we can still sell them. Besides, isn't the store in Xiaoxiang's town a good place to sell these fish?"

Zhao Dahai knew very well that most of the fish caught in this place were unlikely to be very big, or they were almost all very common fish. It would be difficult to sell such fish to Hongyun Restaurant or Wu Weimin's private restaurant, but the fish stall of Ding Xiaoxiang's family in the town was just right. Moreover, these were like pie in the sky, free fish and free money.

"what!"

"Zhao Dahai."

"You really have a clearer and more appropriate view of this matter. We two old men think too much. We are worried that if we put the fishing nets here to catch fish, other people will see it and come here to fish, affecting the fish farm."

Shi Guangming laughed out loud and had to admit that he and Zhao Shi had really thought too much about this matter.

No matter what, as long as there are fish in the sea, as long as we can set up fishing nets and catch these fish, we must do this.

What if other people saw it? Do they have the ability to catch these fish?
"Correct!"

"These fish must be caught, otherwise they will be wasted, right?"

"You can catch a lot of fish in the net cages, but if the weather is bad and the seawater flows fast, the entire sea surface will be filled with flowing water, and there won't be many fish that actually make it into the net cages."

Zhao Shi pointed to the net cage next to the platform.

This net cage can catch a lot of fish, but it can catch more fish at normal times, when the weather is bad and the sea water flows faster. It's not that you can't catch fish, on the contrary, you can catch more fish than usual. It's just that most of the fish are somewhere else around.

For example, most of the sea bass caught by Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu today were near the fish farm and did not run into the net cage.

Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu just happened to know that there were fish here. If they caught these fish, when the weather was good, these fish would definitely swim away to who knows where with the tide.

Instead of giving others the advantage, it is better to set out the fishing nets and catch them yourself.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming made up their minds that they would buy fishing nets and put them on the fish rafts after the fishing moratorium was over, and tell the people on the fish rafts to wait until the weather was bad and the flow of seawater accelerated, then they would put the fishing nets into the sea. If there were fish, they would catch them, and if there were no fish, it would just be a matter of effort.
