Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!

In fact, the regulations for fishing bans in my country's waters are not the same.

In the South China Sea, for example, the fishing ban period is generally from early June to early August.

The Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea are from early July to early September.

The main purpose is to protect fish reproduction and the growth of juvenile fish during the summer.

This period is the peak spawning season for economically important fish species and the rapid growth period for juvenile fish.

Fishing moratoriums can effectively protect mother fish and baby fish, allowing marine resources to recover and thrive.

Although the area is located south of 35 degrees north latitude, it follows the northern fishing ban system due to climate reasons.

Wu Sui's heart was bleeding; this was absolutely the most terrifying school of fish he had ever seen since he went to sea.

The unusual underwater current and the swirling, surging water were all caused by these guys.

With those thousands of fishhooks down there, things are probably in an uproar right now.

Wu Sui stubbed out the remaining half of his cigarette on the gunwale, turned around and shouted.

"I've rested enough. Time to reel in the longline fishing and get some sleep before I go home."

The group immediately perked up and stubbed out their cigarettes.

"Alright, let's get to work!" Chen Yongqiang shouted at the top of his lungs, then turned and ran to untie the mooring ropes connecting the two boats.

Wu Lei climbed into the driver's seat, started the engine, cut through the waves, and headed towards the longline fishing area.

Wu Gang's boat followed closely behind.

A distance of four or five hundred meters is nothing at sea; it only takes a few minutes to reach.

The searchlight at the bow of the ship shone on the sea, illuminating a stretch of water ahead.

As soon as they got close, the group realized something was wrong.

"Brother Sui, look at the water!" Chen Yongqiang pointed directly in front of the bow of the boat, his voice trembling.

The sea, which should have been rising and falling with the waves, was now churning up large swathes of water like boiling water.

A series of muffled "splashing" sounds came from underwater, and it was obvious that the longline fishing would be a good catch.

"Ah Sui, the commotion down there is huge!" Wu Lei poked his head out, looking at the water with a shocked expression.

Wu Sui walked to the side of the boat and leaned out.

The first buoy was less than five meters to the port side of the ship.

Normally, these floats, which are tied to the main line of longline fishing, float steadily on the water.

But now, that red buoy is being pulled underwater by a tremendous force.

The buoy bobbed violently on the water's surface, sometimes being pulled completely underwater, only to spring back up a few seconds later, kicking up a large cloud of white foam.

The main line connecting the buoy was taut, and under the spotlight, you could even hear the creaking sound of the rope due to its excessive tension.

"Dazhu, bring me the hook," Wu Sui shouted without turning his head.

Wang Dazhu quickly handed over the hook and stood protectively behind Wu Sui.

Wu Sui aimed for the moment the buoy bounced up, then hooked the main line with force.

"Come help me pull it."

Wang Dazhu quickly ran over, and the two of them grabbed the main thread from the front and back, exerting force at the same time.

As soon as he got his hands on the main storyline, Wu Sui's face lit up with joy.

It's too heavy!

The force of the fall was astonishing; it didn't feel like a fish being caught, but rather like a large rock on the seabed.

Moreover, the rock was alive, struggling and tumbling wildly underwater.

"Holy crap! Brother Sui, what the hell is hanging down there?" Wang Dazhu gritted his teeth and leaned back as far as he could.

"I don't know, we'll find out once it's pulled up."

Wu Sui's veins bulged as he grasped the main thread and gradually pulled it upwards.

As the first hook was pulled up, the underwater commotion grew louder and louder.

"Splash!"

A huge splash of water suddenly erupted from the surface of the water.

A large, slender fish burst out of the water.

The large fish writhed violently in mid-air, its tail slapping heavily against the water's surface, splashing water everywhere.

"My goodness!" Wang Dazhu exclaimed, his eyes wide, "It's a mackerel! A mackerel this big!"

This mackerel is about 70 or 80 centimeters long, with a deep blue-black back, a silvery-white belly, and dark brown round spots all over its body.

There are actually many varieties of mackerel, but in coastal areas of my country, the most common is the blue-spotted mackerel.

The meat is tender, white, and elastic.

The tail part, in particular, has a delicious taste, hence the saying "pomfret mouth, mackerel tail".

"Don't just stand there, grab the net!" Wu Sui shouted.

Wang Dazhu suddenly realized what was happening and quickly grabbed the landing net next to him, aiming it at the mackerel on the surface of the water and scooping it up.

With a combination of dragging and pulling, the two of them managed to get the large mackerel onto the deck.

Hearing the noise, Wu Lei ran out of the driver's seat and was so happy to see the fish that he couldn't stop smiling.

"The first hook is a big one, hahaha..."

After taking a break, Wu Sui and Wang Dazhu continued to pull the line upwards.

The second hook emerged from the water, and another splash of water erupted.

It was the same mackerel, its mouth caught on a fishhook, and it was writhing desperately in the water.

"And then there's everything after that..."

Wu Lei stood pointing to the sea outside the ship's side, his voice trembling.

As the main storyline unfolds, countless figures begin to appear beneath the water's surface.

One after another, the mackerel, like candied hawthorns strung on a rope, writhed wildly underwater.

The entire sea surface was completely boiling, with countless tail fins slapping the water and splashing water everywhere.

These thousands of fishhooks are like they've plunged into a school of mackerel!

"Quick, reel them in! Don't let them get away!"

Wu Sui used both hands alternately to quickly pull the thread upwards.

The water broke open again, and another mackerel was forcibly dragged ashore.

Just as Wang Dazhu untied the fish, another one was found hanging on the hook.

"It's connected! Brother Sui, it's connected!" Wang Dazhu stomped his feet excitedly.

Wu Sui had no time to pay attention to him; her hands were moving so fast they were blurry.

It was all mackerel, not a single other fish.

Each one is around 70-80 centimeters long and weighs about four or five pounds.

Wang Dazhu was in charge of scooping up the fish and unhooking them, so busy that his heels were practically hitting the back of his head.

Wu Gang's boat was in a similar situation, but they had a winch on board, making their line winding speed many times faster than Wu Sui's boat, which relied solely on manpower.

"Buzzing..."

The winch motor rotates, and the main line is quickly wound up.

"Quickly, Xiaoyang, Yongqiang, unhook them!"

Wu Gang stood beside the winch, looking at the dense silver figures beneath the water's surface, and was so anxious he was jumping up and down.

Chen Yang's hands trembled as he watched the fish being pulled up one by one.

"Brother, what kind of amazing place did my brother-in-law find? This isn't fishing, it's like they're buying goods!"

With each rotation of the winch, three or four large mackerel can be brought up.

Wu Lei didn't even bother with the landing net; he just grabbed the leader line and swung it onto the deck.

"Clatter!"

"Clatter!"

One after another, large mackerel crashed onto the deck.

In just over ten minutes, a small, silvery-white mountain, half a meter high, had been piled up on the deck.

The fish scales reflected the light under the searchlight, stinging the eyes.
