Lu Zhizi sat on the side of the boat and teased the tiger to play, she threw down a piece of beef, the tiger shook his head and tail and rushed to eat, from time to time a few screams, looking very cheerful.

Ao Xiaoniu lay on the bow of the boat and stared at the sea very seriously, his eyes were about to turn red, and he didn't find a single mackerel.

This made him very disappointed, and said: "Alas, the ocean is so polluted, the fish resources are so badly destroyed, and I haven't seen a single big mackerel." ”

Ao Muyang said: "How can the big mackerel be so easy to find? You just need to pay attention to the tiger, if there is a mackerel, the tiger will definitely dive to chase it." ”

Ao Xiaoniu was stunned and said stupidly: "Yes." ”

At noon, Ao Muyang took out the beef jerky he had made and gave it to the two of them to eat, this was lunch.

Because he had to buy beef for the tiger every day, he got acquainted with the owner of the beef stall, and when the boss had good beef, he would leave two pieces for him, and he bought it or made sauce meat or dried it to make beef jerky.

After eating a few pieces of jerky, Ao Muyang jumped into the water, soaking up the moisture while looking for mackerel.

Lu Zhizi said on the boat: "Aren't we going a little deep now?"

Ao Muyang said: "It's okay, it's a good day, and there is no strong wind at night, don't worry, there will be no accident." ”

Ao Xiaoniu was full of blind confidence in him: "Teacher, let me tell you, it's right to listen to Uncle Yang, and Uncle Yang is here, with him, we are very safe!"

Hearing them say this, Lu Zhizi relieved his heart.

After searching in the water for a while and not finding a big mackerel, Ao Muyang returned to the boat and said, "Wait patiently, there are no fish yet, come, Teacher Lu, you first practice throwing the rod and raising the rod." ”

Throwing the rod is to throw the hook down, and raising the rod is to put away the hook, which are the basic skills of fishing.

Lu Zhizi said: "It's not that I haven't fished, I'm clear about these." ”

Ao Muyang said: "You have to at least practice the rod, we are drift fishing mackerel, do you know why it is called drift fishing? ”

He flicked the rod down and quickly lifted it up for a demonstration: "When a fish is hooked, you have to use all your strength to lift it up and lift it out of the water at once. ”

Lu Zhizi was stunned and said, "Isn't this easy to let the fish get off the hook?"

Ao Xiaoniu hurriedly said: "Don't worry about it, as long as you catch it, Uncle Yang will use a fishing net to catch it." ”

Ao Muyang nodded and said, "Yes, this will indeed unhook the fish, but as long as it is lifted to the surface, I will use the net pocket to get it." ”

"The reason why we have this is because the hook we use is a bit small, and if we fight with the mackerel for a long time, it is more likely to get off the hook. ”

After listening to his explanation, Lu Zhizi understood, and then she began to practice.

Ao Muyang stood behind her and taught her: "Remember, don't raise the rod as soon as you see the float sinking, it is easy to let go, especially when you raise the rod, pay attention to the strength, although you use a hard rod, but it still has elasticity, be careful that the rebounding hook hurts yourself." ”

The deer was training, and the tiger dived into the water and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this, Ao Muyang immediately jumped into the water to check it, and luckily, he came across two big mackerel, each of which was one meter two or three in length!

So he quickly climbed into the boat, then dropped anchor, grabbed a crucian carp from the bucket, hung it on the hook, and threw it down.

While taking the bait, he explained: "Crucian carp is the most suitable bait, mackerel like to prey on small fish to eat, and crucian carp is a freshwater fish, after entering the sea it will struggle wildly, which can better attract mackerel." ”

Soon after his words fell, the float on the surface of the water began to shake and then sank into the water.

Ao Xiaoniu said excitedly: "Take the bait!"

Ao Muyang nodded, he looked at Lu Zhizi and said: "At this time, don't worry, stabilize your arm and count silently for five or six seconds, you sink the rod tip, lower it to a position close to the water surface, and then shake the roller to start reeling the line, you must be fast and strong!"

As he spoke, he grabbed the rod with one hand and quickly shook the roller with the other, and retracted the line.

"Now, when the fishing line is still half a meter away from the sea, use all your strength to pull the hook up vigorously, regardless of whether it will cause the fish to unhook, in short, you finally pull it up hard......"

He pulled hard, and a big fish was dragged out of the sea!

This fish is one meter and three long, with a round and strong body, a blue and black spot on the back, a silver-white and shiny belly, and a tail crossed like scissors.

Carrying out the fish with one hand, he grabbed the long pole net pocket beside him with one hand, threw it at the fish with lightning speed, and landed accurately under the big fish, at this time he let go of his hand, and the fish just fell into the fishing net.

When the net is caught in the fish, it can't run away.

Ao Muyang let go of the fishing rod and let it drag the fishing line to struggle in the sea.

There was a rope tied to the net pocket, Ao Muyang pulled the rope, the net pocket shrank, and then easily dragged the fish back.

Dragging the fish onto the boat, he quickly put it in the ice compartment and covered it with ice, and the mackerel had to be kept fresh, otherwise it would really be worthless.

There was also a mackerel in the water, but it had been scared away.

After waiting a little longer, they ran into a fish again, Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu were in charge of the fishing rod, she grabbed the fishing rod, Ao Xiaoniu turned the wheel seat, and then pulled the fish out.

Lu Zhizi didn't have the strength of Ao Muyang, so he couldn't pull the big fish out of the water directly, so he could only pull it close to the sea.

This was enough for Ao Muyang, he grabbed the net and stabbed it down, gave the big fish a bottom, and snagged it.

Catching this fish, Lu Zhizi stretched out his hand to Ao Muyang with a smile on his face: "High-five, oh yes, happy cooperation!"

Ao Xiaoniu jumped up: "And me." ”

In the afternoon they did not harvest much, and in the evening, the harvest came.

In the evening, the sea is low and the sea is moving, which is the favorite living environment of mackerel, they need a lot of oxygen and prefer to live in an environment with plenty of current.

As a result, mackerel became active at this time, and the number of mackerel appeared on the surface of the sea increased.

The most suitable time for drift fishing mackerel is called the 28 tide, when the tide rises by 2 points or rises by 8 points, retreats by 2 points or retreats by 8 points, and the sea movement is the most intense at this time.

However, it is difficult to grasp this time point, the time of high tide and low tide changes every day, and Ao Muyang is not sure.

He made a rough calculation, and then took Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu to work hard, constantly hooking and raising the rod, and harvested more than 20 big mackerel.

There was a lot of harvest and a lot of time, at first Lu Zhizi and Ao Xiaoniu were in a state of excitement and were not clear, and by the time they calmed down, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Ao Muyang appeased them and drove the boat back, they went too far into the sea, and it took two or three hours to go back.

The fishing boat took advantage of the moonlight to gallop all the way back, and suddenly, the tiger leading the way in front changed direction, swam south, and came out of the water with a gurgling sound, as if he had found something.

Ao Muyang wondered, and also changed the course slightly to follow, and then not long after, he heard a terrible scream in the dull and chaotic sound of the waves: "Ah! help! shark! shark!"
