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

Chapter 1625 The more you fish, the more you get!

"why?"

Gao Zhicheng found it very strange.

I don't know why Zhao Dahai told me, Wu Weimin, Lin Zuhua and the others not to go out to sea fishing with the speedboat.

"Given the current situation, it is very possible that some other fish, such as a large mackerel weighing 100 or 200 pounds, or something else, could appear."

"But in any case, this is only a possibility, not a certainty."

"If you get on the speedboat, you'll actually have to stay on it for several hours. In this kind of weather, it's far less comfortable to be on a speedboat than on a big fishing boat."

"Another, even more important thing is that if you get on the speedboat and encounter a giant mackerel weighing over 100 pounds, or some other kind of fish, you definitely won't be able to pull it up."

"Getting on the speedboat is not much different from not getting on the speedboat; you still won't catch these fish."

Zhao Dahai smiled and gave a reminder.

Gao Zhicheng, Lin Zuhua, and Wu Weimin were taken aback for a moment, but they had to admit that Zhao Dahai was right.

In this kind of weather, it's definitely not as comfortable to stay on a large speedboat as it is on a large fishing boat.

The most crucial point is that even if there really were mackerel weighing over 100 pounds, the crew on the speedboat would be useless; they wouldn't be able to pull the fish up even if it took the bait.

This simply states a fact: people like us really have no way of doing such a thing.

"You might as well just stay on this big fishing boat and wait until other kinds of fish appear. Then we'll tell you that you can just fish on this big fishing boat."

"Anyway, you just want to catch a few fish for fun, there's no need to keep fishing."

"If you want to fish for sea bass that weigh around 40 to 50 pounds, you can do it on this big fishing boat. It will take some effort and energy, but it won't affect you much."

"When a school of large mackerel weighing 100 or 200 pounds appears, you can use the rods on the fishing boat or the release rods to fish for them. This way, it won't be too tiring."

As Zhao Dahai spoke, he pointed to the gun mounts mounted on the side of the large fishing boat.

If Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua wanted to catch a fish weighing over 100 jin (50 kg), whether it was a grouper, a mackerel, or any other kind of fish, they simply couldn't pull it back with their bare hands.

"what!"

"How come we didn't think of this? This method is really excellent!"

Wu Weimin slapped his thigh, realizing he hadn't thought of such a method, but he had to admit it was excellent.

Whether it's myself, Lin Zuhua, or Gao Zhicheng, all we really want is to catch a few fish like these; there's no need to keep fishing all the time.

If you get on a speedboat, one problem is that the weather is bad and it's very uncomfortable, and another is that you can only catch a few fish before you have to rest.

On a large fishing boat, these two issues can be resolved perfectly.

Gao Zhicheng and Lin Chuhua both nodded, and the matter was settled.

After finishing their meal and resting for a while, Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou saw that all the fish on the speedboat had been hoisted onto the large fishing boat, so they immediately returned to the speedboat and went out fishing again.

The sky gradually brightened, but the overall sky remained overcast. The sea breeze picked up a bit, though the rain lessened slightly.

Zhao Shi, Shi Guangming, and the others all stayed in the driver's seat.

"There are indeed a lot of fish now, but fishing is more difficult now."

Shi Guangming pointed to Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, who were fishing on the sea not far away.

People who go out to sea, whether they are fishing or not, don't really care about rainy days. In fact, sometimes they feel that rain is more comfortable.

But if it's windy, that's a different story.

Not only will it feel very uncomfortable and painful, but it will also be inconvenient to do work.

"What can we do? We just have to put up with this kind of weather."

"But then again, there are so many fish in the sea. Even in strong winds and huge waves, people would probably still go fishing as long as they weren't in mortal danger."

Zhao Shi shook his head. The weather was definitely uncomfortable, especially if the wind was strong.

Both speedboats are relatively large, making them more stable and comfortable.

There are so many fish in the sea now, and they are all very big.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou would never miss such a good opportunity to make money.

"Uncle Zhao!"

"You're right, the weather is indeed not very comfortable right now, but there are just so many sea bass in the ocean!"

"Zhao Dahai and his team have been fishing at sea for about an hour now, but why do the sea bass seem to be biting more and more fiercely?"

Wu Weimin had been watching Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou fish. At first, he thought the bites were very fierce, but as time went by, he found that they hadn't weakened at all; on the contrary, they had become even fiercer.

"Correct!"

"The fish in the sea are biting really fiercely now, even more fiercely than when Zhao Dahai first went there. I guess this is related to the stronger wind and current now."

"If this continues, I wonder how many fish we can catch! It's just a pity that these fish are so big, catching them is really too tiring."

"Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou are incredibly fast at fishing, and they're physically strong enough. If it were anyone else, I reckon they'd just be watching helplessly as the fish in the sea dwindle." Zhao Shi nodded. That's exactly right now. The number of sea bass here is increasing dramatically, giving the impression that they can't be caught all of them. This is largely due to the current winds; the backflow area has even started to produce foam, and it's very noticeable. In such places, the fish in the sea are likely increasing significantly.

"what!"

"Who could have imagined it would turn out like this? Who could have imagined that such a backflow zone would appear in such a place? It's really almost impossible for anyone else to have discovered it."

Shi Guangming was extremely proud.

The area around the artificial reef is filled with various reefs and rocks, making it unlikely that fishing boats using nets would come here. Only speedboats or other fishing vessels would venture here. When the weather is bad, these speedboats and other fishing vessels would leave, making it almost impossible for anyone to discover this place.

Zhao Dahai's current situation is purely accidental. If there hadn't been a large fishing boat nearby, even though Zhao Dahai's speedboat was quite big, he would have left to fish safely in this kind of weather instead of staying here.

"The fish here will definitely increase in number and size, and they may even get bigger. Now we just have to see if we'll see a 50-pound sea bass."

"Are there sea bass weighing over 50 pounds in the deep sea?"

Gao Zhicheng turned his head and looked at Shi Guangming.

I often go out to sea to fish, especially in the deep sea, but I don't encounter sea bass weighing over 40 kilograms very often, let alone those weighing over 50 kilograms. Shi Guangming has been sailing his large fishing boat to Shanghai for many years, so he should be able to spot them if they really exist.

"Yes, there are definitely fish in the ocean, no matter how big they are. Even sea bass can grow to a very large size in deep waters."

"Given the right weather and especially when food is plentiful, any kind of fish can grow to enormous sizes, far exceeding the sizes of the fish we usually see."

"The situation is the same for sea bass. Generally speaking, a sea bass weighing over ten kilograms is already quite good, even if it lives in the deep sea. But there are some sea bass that are really very big."

"However, sea bass weighing around 50 pounds are really rare. I've only seen them two or three times."

Shi Guangming nodded. He had indeed seen them before, but not very often. He really didn't know if a fifty-pound sea bass would appear here today.

"We've already seen sea bass weighing around 40 pounds each, and there are quite a few of them. I think there's a real chance we'll see sea bass weighing 50 pounds today, but the number will definitely be limited. Whether we can catch them or not depends on Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou."

Wu Weiming pointed to Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou, who were fishing not far away. The sea bass are getting bigger and bigger now, and there is a real chance that some will weigh 50 jin (25 kg). However, even if they do, there won't be many of them. Moreover, these fish are very smart, so even if they appear, it is not certain that they can be caught.

"Didn't you want to catch big sea bass? Why don't you just give it a try now? You can fish in that calmer area right here on this big fishing boat!"

Zhao Shi found it a little strange. Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua were just talking about this, but they hadn't started fishing yet.

"Isn't Zhao Dahai fishing right now? We don't need to rush, but we can fish later. Let's not interfere with Zhao Dahai and his friends making money by fishing."

Lin Zuhua waved his hand.

It's not that Wu Weiming and I don't want to fish for these big sea bass, but right now it really doesn't seem like there's much of a need.

Zhao Dahai is currently leading Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou fishing to make money. The rest of us can fish later. If we catch something, we'll fish; if not, it won't be a big problem. We won't care at all. Or we can wait for Zhao Dahai to lead us fishing for these big sea bass next time.

"You guys are really overthinking this!"

"How long can you fish? The fish in the sea are more plentiful now. As long as you can find a good spot, fish will bite immediately. At most, you can only catch two fish before you have to stop."

Zhao Shi smiled.

These ideas aren't entirely without merit, but they're certainly not very reasonable, and they have no impact whatsoever.

"hurry up!"

"Stop dawdling here. If you want to fish, hurry up and catch a few fish. You really don't have much strength to catch many fish."

"I've had my fill of fishing, so I need to rest. I'll see if any other big fish appear later."

Shi Guangming urged Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua to hurry up and go fishing if they wanted to catch sea bass weighing 40 or 45 or 46 jin. He told them not to wait until later, as no one knew when the fish in the sea would come or go. He said that these 40 or 50 jin sea bass might suddenly become 10 or even 10 jin sea bass, and it would be too late to catch them then.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua thought about it and nodded. It was indeed true. They wouldn't be able to catch many fish, so it wouldn't have any impact on Zhao Dahai. They were really overthinking it. They immediately left the cockpit and went up to the deck to prepare for fishing.

"Old Zhao."

"This is unbelievable! What's going on? How can there be so many sea bass in the sea? It feels like I could catch a fish in the blink of an eye!"

Shi Guangming couldn't help but shake his head.

Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua went up to the deck, prepared their rods, and cast their lines at a spot where there were fish. They only twitched the rods twice, and immediately a fish took the bait.

This only proves that there are so many sea bass in the backflow area right now that they have nothing to eat and you can catch fish very easily.

"I've been taking people out to sea fishing for so many years, and I've really rarely encountered a scene like this. I've never seen such a crazy school of sea bass."

Shi Guangming couldn't believe his eyes; he couldn't believe there were so many sea bass in the sea at this time of year.

"What? You don't actually want to go fishing now? If you really want to fish, just come up on the deck. I'd like to see how many fish you can pull up."

Zhao Shi pointed to Wu Weimin, Gao Zhicheng, and Lin Zuhua who were fishing. This fishing was too easy. Shi Guangming said that it was clear that he really wanted to try it.

"what!"

"You're like a mind reader, how could you possibly know what I'm thinking right now?"

"That's right, I really want to try and see if I can catch any fish! There's nothing to do, and most importantly, it's really boring watching them catch such big fish from the sea one after another."

Shi Guangming laughed loudly, then immediately left the wheelhouse, went up to the deck, and prepared to fish.
