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

Chapter 1503 Fishing Methods After the End of the Fishing Ban
Liu Lei smiled, realizing he had really overthought this matter.

This has been said many times before, and Zhao Dahai is not worried about it at all.

In fact, no matter what kind of business you do, whether it's running your own business or Zhao Dahai going out to sea to fish, you will definitely face many competitors.

It's impossible that Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu were the only ones fishing in a certain place, especially in places like artificial reefs, windmill foot, or reef foam areas where you can catch a lot of fish.

Any place that can attract large schools of fish must be a major fishing spot; it's impossible for only one person to know about it.

From this perspective, even if there are few people on artificial islands at the beginning, as time goes by, especially after news of Zhao Dahai catching a lot of fish spreads, many people will definitely come to fish.

But what does it matter? The island and reef foam area is a prime example, as is the windmill fishing spot, where Zhao Dahai can catch a lot of fish.

"Zhao Dahai".

"Are you really not going fishing at the Windmill Foot fishing spot today?"

Shi Guangming was genuinely curious. Zhao Dahai had just caught so many fish at the Windmill Foot fishing spot, but immediately said he wouldn't go there again. The current in the DYD Reef foam area is excellent; I reckon we'll still be able to catch a lot of sea bass tomorrow. If we really do, we'll continue fishing for sea bass in the reef foam area.”

"If there aren't many fish in the morning's current, then we'll go to the artificial reef."

"I haven't fished at the artificial islands for quite a while, so I'm not too clear on what the situation is like there."

Zhao Dahai picked up a chicken leg, took a couple of bites, and nodded very firmly.

I really won't be going fishing at the Windmill Foot fishing spot tomorrow; there's really no need for it.

“The foamy area of ​​the island is very close to our fishing boat.”

"If there are really fish, then we definitely have to fish here, and it's about to end now."

"At this point, it's already noticeable that there are far fewer anglers in the island and reef foam area, making it a good time to fish."

Zhao Dahai has been fishing in the island and reef foam area and nearby waters recently, and is very aware of all the changes here.

The fishing moratorium is about to end, which will greatly affect fishing.

One is the fishing boats, which are about to go out to sea to fish. These fishing boats have a huge impact on anglers.

Another huge impact is on fishing spots such as island and reef foam areas. During the fishing moratorium, many other people who would normally be fishing came to fish. Now that the fishing moratorium is over, these people will continue to fish, and the number of people will decrease significantly.

There are negative impacts along with negative ones; it all depends on how well everyone can seize the opportunities.

"Correct!"

"In the past few days, there have been far fewer fishing boats and speedboats in the island and reef foam area."

Ding Dawen walked over and heard what Zhao Dahai said, and immediately nodded.

His fishing boat was moored not far from the foamy area of ​​the island reef, and he kept a close eye on the fishing boats and speedboats coming and going every day. He could see very clearly, especially at night, that wherever there was a speedboat or fishing boat, there would definitely be lights on.

"During the day, there are fewer fishing boats or speedboats passing by our fishing boat."

"Another thing is that at night, the number of speedboats and fishing boats, especially in the island and reef foam area, or the lights, are noticeably less."

As Ding Dawen spoke, he pointed to the sea around his fishing boat, and then emphasized the foamy area around the islands and reefs.

"The people on those speedboats or fishing boats are actually preparing to go out to sea to fish right now!"

Zhao Shi calculated the time and knew very well that a large number of fishing boats would soon go out to sea to fish, which would have a very obvious and direct impact on anglers.

"Three days!"

"There are only three days left!"

"At that time, there will be many fishing boats around our fishing boat. I estimate that it will be very difficult to catch fish during those days!"

Zhao Shi was a little worried.

"Second Grandpa."

"In the first few days after the fishing moratorium ended, there were many fishing boats going out to sea, and it was a bit crazy. There's nothing we can do about it, and it will definitely have some impact, but the impact won't be very big or particularly big."

Zhao Dahai knew that Zhao Shi was definitely worried about this matter, but it was actually much smaller than he had imagined.

"Even if there is an impact, it won't be too significant in places like island and reef foam zones."

"I plan to mainly fish in the island and reef foam area in the first few days after the fishing moratorium ends."

Zhao Dahai smiled.

In the first few days after the fishing moratorium ended, those who hadn't been out fishing for so long were definitely going out to sea like crazy, and at this time there were relatively more fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea.

Everyone wants to make money, so they'll definitely seize the golden opportunity of the first three or even the first seven days to fish like crazy.

The fisherman definitely wants to be influenced, and greatly influenced at that.

However, some places are completely unaffected, such as island and reef foam areas where the current is very strong and there are many rocky structures on the seabed.

The water flows very fast, and there are many rocks in the foamy reef area. Even if there were sea bass, ordinary fishing nets wouldn't dare to be placed in such a place.
Drift gillnets are easy to be washed away by the sea. Once washed away, they will not only get tangled up, but they will also likely get caught on the rocks.

You might be able to catch some fish, but you might not be able to pull them up, or the net might be ruined by the time you do, making it a losing proposition.

Trawlers are ineffective in places like this.

There are too many rocks in the sea, especially reefs. If the trawl net gets caught on the rocks on the seabed, it will be damaged. Moreover, it is very dangerous for fishing boats, especially large trawlers, to navigate in places with too many reefs.

If you're not careful, it can be very dangerous if the hull of a fishing boat or its propeller hits or crashes into a rock.

In other words, no matter how crazy the fishermen are, they wouldn't dare to fish in places like the island and reef foam areas. Therefore, it can be said that fishing in such areas is completely unaffected.

On the contrary, all the people who came here to fish temporarily during the fishing moratorium have left and gone out to sea to fish. With fewer people fishing, more fish can be caught.

"Brother Dahai!"

"Does this mean that for the next few days, especially right after the fishing moratorium ends, we'll have to focus our fishing efforts mainly on the island and reef foam areas?"

Liu Lei immediately thought of this.

"Correct!"

"That's exactly right. That's why Brother Da Wen's fishing boat hasn't moved and has been staying here all this time. There's absolutely no need to move it anywhere else. Our fishing spots from now on will mainly be in the artificial reef foam area. We'll only go fishing on the artificial reef when there are no fish in the artificial reef foam area."

"Those little fishing spots that only we know about are off-limits for the time being."

"Once the fishing moratorium ends, the surrounding sea is full of fishing boats that are fishing like crazy. It's easy to run into them and be spotted by others."

"We'll have to wait until the people on those fishing boats have calmed down before we can go fishing at our little spot."

"But in any case, we should try to avoid going to small fishing spots that only we know about."

Zhao Dahai had long thought about how to fish during the first few days after the fishing moratorium ended. The simplest, most direct, and safest way was to keep an eye on the foamy areas around the islands and reefs.

If there are fish in this area, then stay here. If there are no fish in the DYD Reef Foam Area, then go to the artificial reef.

The specific environment of artificial islands and reefs is not quite the same as that of foam zones, but the principle is the same: artificial islands and reefs are not suitable for fishing boats.

In the first few days after the fishing moratorium ends, those fishing boats that have been fishing like crazy are definitely unlikely to go to the artificial islands and reefs, which are definitely good places for fishing.

“There are really no fishing boats coming to the island and reef foam area. During this period right after the fishing moratorium, this place is definitely the best place to fish.”

Zhao Shi thought for a moment and nodded.

I'm not too clear on fishing spots, but I know exactly where to fish.

I and the other fishermen who go out to sea are not unaware that there are a lot of sea bass in the island and reef foam area, but generally they do not come to this place to fish.

Zhao Dahai saw this matter very clearly.

After finishing their meal, Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou, and Liu Lei rested for a while before going back to their cabins to sleep. Life at sea is just that monotonous.

"Old Zhao."

"Do you think we should go fishing at sea on a speedboat tomorrow?"

Shi Guangming glanced at Zhao Shi.

Do you want to go out?

Zhao Shi glanced at the location of the island reef foam area. Zhao Dahai had already made it very clear that they would go to the island reef foam area tomorrow to see if there were any fish. If he and Shi Guangming wanted to go out to sea together, then they would go to the island reef foam area.

“We’ve been stuck on the fishing boat for the past few days and it’s getting a bit boring. I think we should just go out to sea with Zhao Dahai. There’s nothing to do on this fishing boat anyway, and at least we’ll have more people to talk to on the speedboat, right?”

Shi Guangming thought about it carefully and decided that he might as well go out to sea fishing with Zhao Dahai's speedboat to pass the time.

"Row!"

"In that case, let's go to bed early and wait until tomorrow morning to go out to sea with Zhao Dahai to see if there are any fish in the current island and reef foam area and how many fish we can catch."

Zhao Shi thought for a moment and nodded. Shi Guangming was right. They hadn't been out to sea for several days and had been staying on the fishing boat, which was really boring.

If you want to go out to sea to fish, you'll have to go to sleep soon, otherwise you definitely won't be able to handle a whole day at sea tomorrow. Even if Shi Guangming and I don't do any work, we'll still have a hard time keeping up.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming made up their minds, smoked for a while, said a few words, and then went back to their cabin to sleep.

Ding Dawen waited until all the grouper in the live water tanks of the two speedboats were hoisted onto the large fishing boat and placed. He then immediately checked the bait, rods, reels, hooks, and other fishing supplies on Zhao Dahai and Lei Dayou's two speedboats, replenishing what needed to be replenished and ensuring everything was prepared.

After finishing his work, Ding Dawen looked at the time and realized it was already 2 a.m.

Ding Dawen thought for a moment and went to the kitchen. He said that the meal had to be cooked by 4 a.m. Zhao Dahai would definitely have gotten up and needed to eat by then. After eating, they would go to the island and reef foam area to catch the earliest tide for fishing.

After arranging these matters, Ding Dawen returned to the driver's seat and found that it was already three o'clock in the morning.

Ding Dawen shook his head and decided not to sleep. He would wake Zhao Dahai at four in the morning to go fishing at sea before going to sleep himself.

Ding Dawen took a sip of strong tea and carefully looked at the surrounding sea. There were some fishing boat lights in some places, but they were very scattered. It was as if the island reef foam area was pitch black, with only a few scattered lights. Judging from this, there were not many fishing boats or speedboats left to fish in the surrounding sea now.

Ding Dawen shook his head.

At the beginning of the fishing moratorium, there were countless fishing boats and speedboats on this stretch of sea.

Needless to say, it's brightly lit during the day, and even at night sometimes it's still brightly lit.

But in the last few days, things have really changed dramatically, especially tonight when the changes were even more obvious. There are hardly any speedboats left to fish in this area anymore.

"In a few days, the fishing moratorium will end. I wonder how many fishing boats will be back then?"

Ding Dawen thought about it carefully and realized that he had almost forgotten what it looked like when fishing boats appeared on the surrounding sea.

The fishing moratorium of about two months felt like several years in my mind.

I've really forgotten what it was like to see fishing boats fishing on this sea before the fishing moratorium.
