The swordfish is commonly known as the swordfish in China, and it is a valuable economic fish, because of its extremely fast speed in the ocean, it is also known as the "Ferrari of the Sea" or "the swimming champion of the biological world", with a speed of more than 90 kilometers per hour and a maximum of 130 kilometers per hour. There is basically no other creature on Earth that can match their speed except for the peregrine falcon and brown swift in the sky, as well as their distant relatives sailfish and the short-term explosive cheetah on land.

The swordfish is a common fish in the tropical and subtropical oceans of the earth, named for the sword-shaped shape of its upper jaw that extends forward. It has a typical streamlined body with a smooth body surface, a long, pointed upper jaw, smaller fins on the back, a flatter mouth, and no gills and pelvic fins. Swordfish vary in color, with the back and body generally brown and black. The average weight is 68~113 kg, the average length is 2.1 meters, the mouth accounts for 1/3 of its length, and the main food is other fish and squid.

There are two families under the swordfish family, the swordfish family and the swordfish family, the swordfish can be said to be a relatively close relative of the swordfish, but the swordfish is a single household, they mainly live in the water at a depth of 550 meters during the day, and are mainly active on the surface at night, and some data indicate that the swordfish may dive to a depth of more than 2800 meters.

Because of their large size and amazing speed, swordfish have few natural predators in the conventional sense, but sometimes they are still preyed on by large predators such as killer whales, pseudo-killer whales, great white sharks, and gray mako sharks, especially gray mako sharks, which are especially fond of preying on swordfish.

It's just that the speed of the swordfish and the long "sword" are not ornaments, and the gray mako shark that has been pierced by the swordfish's kiss has been found many times, the swordfish is flat, the two sides are relatively thin and sharp, and the swordfish swimming at high speed can easily pierce the bottom of the boat, and can easily break through the solid fishing net.

Therefore, to catch this kind of fish, including several species of fish under the sailfish family, trawl nets or purse seine nets cannot be used, and hooks or fishing methods are generally used.

Longline fishing is a common method used by fishing vessels, which is actually a main fishing line tied to many equally spaced branches, and the end of the branch line is hung with a hook and bait. Using the floating and sinking device, it is laid on the surface, middle and bottom layer, and the trunk line is laid on the surface and middle layer through buoys and floats, and the length of the buoy rope and the equipment of the settlement force are controlled to sink the fishing tackle to the required water layer.

Longline fishing is a common method used by fishing boats to catch large marine fish such as swordfish, swordfish, and tuna, of course, you can also use sea fishing to catch swordfish, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, Yang Yi They definitely don't have so much time to delay, it takes several hours to catch one, and when other fish are caught, they have long been gone.

Not long after the fishing rope was put down, Yang Yi "saw" through the dragon ball that the two groups of swordfish rushed over, not only the swordfish, but also a lot of other fish, including the eels, a bunch of bait, exuding aura, was an irresistible temptation for them, so they just went around and began to bite the hook frantically.

"If a fish bites, it's a big fish!" cheered from the deck.

It is the first time that these crew members have been at sea for so many years and have seen a situation where they start biting as soon as they put down the fishing line, and they usually let the fishing line stay at sea for at least two to four hours before they start fishing, and even then they are often in vain. This time it was good, the fishing line just put down, and before the boat left, I saw that the buoys floating on the sea surface sank one by one, and it was not one, but one after another, which means that there are a lot of fish under the water to bite the hook, even if it is not a swordfish, this operation is not in vain.

Yang Yi is calm and now on the deck, this situation was originally expected by him, expanding the Dragon Ball "radar" out, there are still many small groups of swordfish in the distance, attracted by the spiritual water, rushing here, it seems that the harvest this time will not be too small, he has the heart to let people put a group down.

The same is true on the Pearl side, slightly less than the Zhushan side, almost all the crew members are concentrated on the deck, and their cheers can be heard from afar, and now Yang Yi is a little worried, waiting for the next few batches of fish to come, whether the fishing rope they put down can hold up, after all, the fish below are not small.

"Boss, do you need to hook up?" Wu Bo walked over and asked.

"Wait a minute, these fish have just been hooked, and at this time the physical strength is just right, I'm afraid it won't be easy to pull up, so let them run down for a while, and it will be easier to pull up again when they are bored." But you don't have to sleep tonight, tell the big guys, work hard, go back and give everyone a bonus!" Yang Yi responded with a smile.

"Look at what I said, we are not here to travel, can we be afraid of too many fish? It was not so easy to go to sea at the original time, there was no rest day and night, and it was more than half a month, I will go and explain to you, wait for it!" Wu Bo replied and walked towards the stern.

Along the way, he has completely regarded himself as the first mate on the ship, arranged everything in an orderly manner, and put his position very clearly, and did not look at Yang Yi because he was a good brother from childhood to adulthood, Yang Yi was very satisfied with this.

The second batch of fish also began to bite the hook one after another, this harvest can already be estimated, the price of swordfish in the market is not low, a pound of about a hundred, it doesn't sound high, but this thing is big, the smallest one has to have one or two hundred catties, and a few even reach six or seven hundred catties, this batch of fish up, and millions of dollars.

More than two hours later, on the first day, the swordfish was pulled onto the boat, this fish has a high fat content of round and slippery, and it looks like it weighs at least more than four hundred catties, the long sword snout fell down on the crane, the two big fish eyes were open, but there was no look of fear, they should still be eating the bait with spiritual water in their mouths, Yang Yi couldn't help but smile, it was really people who died for money, and fish died for food, which were all caught and wanted to eat.

The Pearl has also started fishing, but the machines over there are not as advanced as here, and the progress of the work is not as fast as here, but it can be seen that the mood over there is also very high, and there is a burst of cheers from time to time.

These people are veterans, from the fish, pulling the fish to the processing, the flow of water is general, the processing is fast and stable, at this time it shows that the high salary is not wronged, if it is a raw hand, such as a water monkey, it seems to be very good but compared to others, it is still worse than a cut.

This fishing feast lasted until noon the next day, and they caught the swordfish that met the specifications nearby, processed them and put them into the freezer, a total of 380 swordfish with a total weight of more than 120 tons, and a total income of tens of millions.

In addition to these swordfish, there are two or three tons of moray eels caught, and various other sea catfish are also one ton smaller, and these angry crew members scolded this group of robbers.

In addition, two sharks were caught, but Yang Yi and they looked at it and threw the crew into the sea again, sharks are aliens with urine in their flesh, except for shark fins, there is no place to be desirable, shark fins are not rare, it is better to throw them back into the sea, of course, if it is a great white shark or tiger shark, he is interested in raising a few into the Dragon Ball space.

After all the blood on the deck was washed away, and all the fishing lines were arranged, the crew could not wait to return to the cabin to catch up on sleep, and after a night of intense labor, they were so tired that it seemed that they would wake up the next day after sleeping this night.

Sure enough, when the meal was ready, few people got up, and they all lay down in the cabin and fell asleep, until the next morning, when they got up one after another to eat breakfast.

The fishing boat has entered the depths of the Indian Ocean at this time, and it is estimated that it will be able to reach the vicinity of Australia in two days, and the fish cargo on the two ships has exceeded 10 million, but because they are all big guys, the cabin of the Zhushan is only about one-tenth, and the Pearl is only one-sixth or seventh, depending on the harvest near Australia. However, with the harvest of these two days, it is certain that there will be no loss of money when you come out this time.

Huang Yousheng and Chen Jiahui basically made a phone call a day since they went to sea, when they heard that they caught a lot of coconut crabs and caught more than 100 tons of swordfish, they were eager to parachute into the ship, especially Huang Yousheng, these are high-end seafood, he asked for more than half of it at once, so that Chen Jiahui called Yang Yi every day to urge Yang Yi to catch some other economic fish, he is not like Huang Yousheng who only does high-end, but needs everything.

So in the next two days, Yang Yi deliberately found two pomfret schools to lay a few nets, got hundreds of tons up, and dragged a net of Australian hairtail, other red fish, mackerel, and peeled fish also dragged a few nets, and half of the fish cabin was loaded, so that Chen Jiahui's mouth could be blocked, otherwise Yang Yi's headache would have to die just by calling.
