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

Chapter 1589 Methods for Finding Patterns
"Really? You guys are using double hooks to fish for grouper now?"

Zhong Shizhu walked quickly to Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua, looked down and saw two rock shoals pulled out of the water. He immediately noticed that they were using double hooks.

"Correct!"

"We've been fishing with double hooks for almost an hour now."

"Sometimes you catch one fish, but most of the time you catch two."

Wu Weimin excitedly pointed to Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming and told Zhong Shizhu that he had been fishing with double hooks for almost three hours before he, Lin Zuhua and Gao Zhicheng used double hooks to fish for grouper.

"How is that possible? Why use a double hook to fish for grouper?"

Zhong Shizhu was a little dumbfounded.

I really didn't expect this, I really didn't expect to use double hooks to fish for grouper.

If we hadn't caught any fish, there would be nothing to say, but now we've not only caught fish, we've caught a lot of fish.

"what!"

"Why not? We can use double hooks, single hooks, or even multiple hooks in a row, as long as we can catch fish."

"There are a lot of fish in this pit now, and they are biting very fiercely."

"With two hooks, we can definitely catch fish. Aren't we having a lot of fun fishing right now?"

As Gao Zhicheng spoke, he pointed to the rod on the gun mount in front of him. "There were just two fish biting the hook."

Wu Weimin, Lin Zuhua, and I originally wanted to catch big fish, but now we're fishing for grouper with double hooks and it's going to be very enjoyable.

I've long forgotten about catching big fish.

Zhao Dahai walked over to Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua, and took a closer look. It really was possible to catch them with double hooks. This was not a strange thing at all. As long as there were enough fish in a place and the fish were biting fiercely enough, it was indeed possible to do it.

"Zhao Dahai!"

"How about we just use double hooks to fish for grouper?"

Seeing this, Liu Bin couldn't contain himself any longer. He felt that when he and his men went out to sea to fish for grouper with Zhao Dahai, they could use double hooks just like him.

Without a second thought, Zhao Dahai immediately shook his head with a smile. It's not that this kind of thing is impossible, but it's really not feasible, or rather, most of the time it's impossible to actually use double hooks to fish for grouper.

"It's not impossible to use double hooks or even more hooks to fish for grouper, but there must be enough fish biting in the sea, enough double hooks, and the grouper must be off the bottom."

"There are a lot of fish in the pit now, which meets several conditions. If there weren't a lot of fish in the pit and their bites weren't particularly fierce and fast, there wouldn't be such good bites at all."

"Most of the time when I'm on duty, I have to fish at the bottom or very close to the bottom to catch anything."

"It's already very easy to snag on the bottom, and if you use a double hook, it will definitely be even easier to snag on the bottom."

Zhao Dahai understood perfectly well why the double-control method was effective in catching grouper, often resulting in catching two at once. However, this was definitely not a conventional method for catching grouper.

We absolutely cannot see that Wu Weimin and Gao Zhicheng caught so many groupers with double hooks and think that we should all use double hooks to fish for groupers from now on.

Liu Bin calmed down and nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

Zhao Dahai was right; this really shouldn't be done that way.

"Zhao Dahai".

"Why are there so many groupers inside?"

As Gao Zhicheng spoke, he took a long-handled net and stretched it out to the sea, scooping up a grouper weighing about 30 pounds. Then he scooped up another smaller grouper weighing only about 10 pounds.

"This situation usually only occurs in pits where there is flowing water, and the water flow is very good."

"Right now, the most important thing for us is to find out the pattern of the water flowing in this pit."

"But it's not easy to do this."

Zhao Dahai was almost 100% certain that there was some kind of flowing water in the deep pit, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to catch so many fish.

The most important thing now is to see if we can find a pattern, but these kinds of things are really hard to figure out.

"Zhao Dahai".

"This matter must be clarified!"

Upon hearing Zhao Dahai's words, Zhao Shi immediately became anxious.

The implication is clear: there's no really good solution.

This is a place where you can catch 10,000 catties of fish in two days, and it's a place with valuable grouper.

If you can't find the pattern, you'll end up earning a lot less money.

If we didn't know there were so many groupers here, there would be nothing to say, but now that we know there are so many groupers here, we can't just let it go and ignore it.

"Second Grandpa."

"It's really hard to say. I'm not the Dragon King of the sea, how could I possibly know what the conditions are like at a depth of 100 or 200 meters?"

"This kind of flowing water is very different from the flowing water that appears on the sea surface. It cannot be seen or touched, and we can only guess at it."

Zhao Dahai smiled.

Zhao Shi hoped to find the pattern so that he could catch grouper repeatedly in this spot, and catch a lot of grouper.

It's not that I don't want to find this pattern, but it's really hard to find.

The reason why large fishing boats are anchored in this place is to try to find a pattern, but in places that are invisible and intangible, you can only try.

"Second Grandpa."

"Right now, all we can do is keep fishing here."

"See when you can catch fish, and see when you can't catch fish."

"It's possible to find a pattern, but more likely you won't."

"It would be great to find the pattern, but we must know that finding the pattern is not easy."

Zhao Dahai has extensive and clear experience in fishing, and it's not easy to figure out something like this.

"Old Zhao."

"Is this something you need to worry about?"

"If a pattern could truly be found, why wouldn't Zhao Dahai look for it?"

"This involves grouper weighing several thousand or even ten thousand kilograms. Who doesn't know that finding the pattern can make a lot of money?"

Shi Guangming glared at Zhao Shi.

This is something Zhao Shi really doesn't need to worry about.

Zhao Dahai would seize any opportunity to find a pattern. "This matter is really not easy. Just like Zhao Dahai said, this is a deep pool of water, hundreds of meters deep."

"We can only try it out, see what's going on, and see if we can find a pattern."

Shi Guangming desperately wanted to find the pattern, but it wasn't something he could just find whenever he wanted to.

This is a really difficult task, and a very difficult one at that.

"Row!"

"This is indeed not an easy task!"

"Zhao Dahai".

"Just tell me what to do next?"

Zhao Shi thought about it and realized that this matter was indeed not easy, but he definitely had to find a way to see if he could find a pattern.

Zhao Dahai told Zhao Shi that the matter was actually not complicated; it was simply a matter of fishing in this spot whenever there was time.

"Just fish here. Cast your line here at different times to see when there are fish and when there aren't."

"Aren't there fish in the sea now? But no matter how many fish there are, if you keep fishing, you'll eventually run out."

"Even if there are no fish, we still have to keep casting our lines and keep fishing."

"Let's wait and see when and at what time the fish will bite the hook next time, especially when there are many fish biting the hook."

“If something like this happens, it’s very likely to be a pattern. We’ll note down the time and try it again when we come here to moor our fishing boats.”

"If there really is a pattern, you will definitely be able to find it."

Zhao Dahai knew very well that this was a very clumsy method, but such methods were often very useful and effective.

Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming both nodded; indeed, this was the only way.

"Boss Gao."

“We’re going out to sea to fish in a bit. Didn’t you want to catch some big grouper? Why don’t you just stay here on the fishing boat and see if you can catch anything?”

Zhao Dahai glanced at Gao Zhicheng, Wu Weimin, and Lin Zuhua.

Right now, I'm having dinner with Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da, and a few others. We'll be heading out to sea to fish somewhere else soon.

Gao Zhicheng and his crew mainly go out to sea to catch big fish. Right now, there's a good chance of finding big grouper right where the fishing boat is moored. There's no need for them to follow them around.

Gao Zhicheng, Wu Weimin, and Lin Zuhua all nodded. They realized that there was no need for them to go out to sea with Zhao Dahai's speedboat. They should at least try to see if they could catch a big grouper in the next two or three days. If they couldn't catch one, then they could go out to sea with Zhao Dahai's speedboat.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou quickly finished their meal, rested for about ten minutes, and then boarded two speedboats to go fishing.

"Zhao Dahai caught so many fish and made so much money. It's really enviable."

“We’re definitely making money, and quite a lot of it, but compared to Zhao Dahai, we’re nowhere near as good.”

Lin Zuhua pointed to the two speedboats belonging to Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, which were disappearing quickly into the distance.

Every day, they can catch hundreds, or even thousands, of valuable fish.

They made an absolutely staggering amount of money!
"Lin Zuhua!"

"I think you should just go fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai."

"One is that you can make money, and the other is that you like fishing, right? Wouldn't it be even better to do it this way? It kills two birds with one stone."

As Wu Weimin spoke, he pushed the switch of the electric reel to reel in the line and fish. Two fish were caught steadily. He had to say that double-hook fishing for grouper was really fun.

"Making money or not isn't the most important thing!"

"I have earned enough money to last a lifetime, so I don't need to worry about making money at all."

"I do like fishing, and I really do, but the problem is that going out to sea to fish with Zhao Dahai is just too tiring."

Lin Zuhua shook his head as he spoke.

Anyone who goes fishing with Zhao Dahai never has to worry about not catching any fish. The only thing to worry about is that there are too many fish and they won't have the energy to keep up.

"There are too many fish, so it's definitely not okay not to fish, but I just don't have the energy or the physical condition to do so."

Lin Zuhua had a headache.

He had gone out to sea with Zhao Dahai more than once or twice, and every time they went out to sea, they caught a lot of fish.

As someone who loves fishing, seeing so many fish in the sea, and being able to catch them as soon as you cast your line, how could I resist? I definitely wanted to fish, but my body couldn't keep up.

I could only watch helplessly as I tried to catch something; my hands were so tired that I had no strength left.

This feeling is absolutely awful!
"Correct!"

"correct!"

"The biggest problem with going fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai is this!"

Gao Zhicheng nodded vigorously, saying that he felt the same way about this matter.

Zhao Dahai always managed to find the location of the fish schools or the fish themselves, and there were a great many of them.

"Ugh!"

"It's not easy for other people to catch fish when they go out to sea on speedboats or fishing boats, but fishing on Zhao Dahai's speedboat has become a physical task."

"I really don't know what to say!"

Gao Zhicheng was both amused and exasperated.

I've been fishing for many years and have gone out to sea to fish countless times on speedboats.

Before I met Zhao Dahai and before I went fishing at sea with Zhao Dahai on his speedboat, I usually didn't catch many fish, or even if I did, they were mostly small ones.

It's really not easy to catch a lot of fish, especially big ones.

Ever since I met Zhao Dahai, I've been able to catch almost any kind of fish I want to catch by going out to sea on his speedboat, and they're all big fish.

Fishing on Zhao Dahai's speedboat is truly a physically demanding job.

"what!"

"That's really how it is, but if I were to go fishing at sea on someone else's speedboat right now, I really wouldn't be willing!"

Wu Weimin laughed.

Whether it's myself, Lin Zuhua, or Gao Zhicheng, we've all been fishing for many years. When we went out to sea to fish with others, we couldn't catch any fish, which was very frustrating. Now, when we go out to sea to fish with Zhao Dahai's speedboat, we can catch whatever fish we want, as many as we want. The only thing we can catch is what we don't want to catch; we can never fail to catch anything.

Having gotten used to catching fish easily with Zhao Dahai, I really couldn't stand going out to sea with any other boat captain.
