86. Industrious General

Wild treasure fish are so precious that even farmed fish can sell for hundreds of yuan a kilogram in seafood markets in coastal cities such as the Red Ocean, and even more so in inland areas far from the ocean.

Ao Muyang recalled that most of the wild treasure fish in Chinese hotels were imported from abroad, and the initial price was more than 200 yuan per kilogram, and the price had to be doubled after entering the hotel, and it was very common to have 400 yuan per kilogram.

The imported treasure fish is mostly frozen fish, and the cost of transporting live fish is too high, if the live wild treasure fish enters the hotel, one kilogram and one or two thousand yuan are the price of conscience.

Sitting at the stern of the boat, he pondered that wild treasure fish are very rare in China, this is not their natural habitat, and most of them cannot survive in the wild.

This batch of treasure fish can survive in the waters around the reef, that is a coincidence, the baby fish juvenile fish need to feed on crustaceans, like small shrimp, small crabs and small shellfish, this reef area happens to live in the flower cover crab population, juvenile flower cover crab feeding juvenile treasure fish.

In addition, the treasure fish like to live in the shallow water of the cold water zone, the reef is very deep, the sea water is very cool, and the presence of the reef causes the seabed protrusion to add a shallow water area, so that the treasure fish can survive.

Seeing these treasure fish, Ao Muyang understood why the population of flower cover crabs on this side of the reef was not very large, and there were natural enemies to survive.

Relatively speaking, the economic value of the crab is greater than that of the treasure fish, and he decided to catch a batch of treasure fish, which can not only make money, but also help the crab expand the size of the group, and make more money in the future.

In Europe, the bottom trawl is used to catch the treasure fish, which has a large range and goes directly to the bottom of the sea, so that the bottom fish, shrimp and crabs can be caught in one net.

Ao Muyang didn't have this kind of net on the boat, but there were a lot of dogs, he saw that it was still early, and decided to come to an inefficient but effective way of fishing: sea fishing!

There are several fishing rods on the boat, and there are also many fishing positions, after all, this is a sea fishing boat, a type of yacht specially used for fishing.

Ao Muyang made use of all the fishing rods, hung the hook on the dog, threw it off the bottom of the sea, and then inserted the rod grip into the fishing position, and he just harvested it directly.

The fish hooks fell into the bottom of the sea one after another, and Ao Muyang probed in the water, monitoring the fish on the bottom of the sea like a pee.

Under artificial breeding conditions, Treasure Fish mainly eat high-energy pellet compound feed, but in the natural environment, they are carnivorous fish, and they are not happy without meat.

Treasure fish like to eat meat, and when the dogs reach the top of their heads, they do not hunt, but gradually bury their bodies in the sand.

"What is this for?" Ao Muyang muttered, "Could it be that their ancestors were trained in the farm?

Several dogs appeared on top of the heads of the Turbot, and the Turbot could eat by swimming and opening its mouth, but they did not do so.

Ao Muyang frowned and thought hard, and suddenly his heart moved, he put the fishing line long, and shook the fishing rod, dragging the dog to swim in the sand.

Just when the ground dog passed by a treasure fish, the big fish that was half hidden in the sand suddenly probed out, like a poisonous snake attack, opened its mouth and swallowed the ground dog into its mouth!

With a successful blow, Ao Muyang immediately shook the wheel seat and began to fight wits and courage with the hooked fish.

Pulling him with a wry smile, he really guessed that the treasure fish have the ability to ambush and prey, and they like to wait for food to come to their door with the help of protective colors, and then launch a deadly attack.

On the other hand, if the food is just floating in the sea above their heads, and does not enter their attack, they will not actively hunt, but will wait patiently.

This made him can't help but sigh: ", knowledge is power, knowledge is money, you still have to study hard when you go back!"

Seeing that he was collecting the hook, the general wanted to jump into the water to catch the fish.

Ao Muyang hurriedly stopped it: "Don't, you will kill it in one bite, you should spare its life." ”

The general is a self-respecting dog, who can help but does not let him do it, and turns it around in a hurry, circling around the ship, constantly making dissatisfied whimpering.

Ao Muyang was helpless, so he had to stuff the handle of a fishing rod into its mouth: "Come on, hold it." ”

The general bit the fishing rod, he stuck the wheel seat, threw the general into the sea, and let the general follow the hooked big fish to tug-of-war.

Suddenly, the fishing line straightened, and the general, like a small boat, was dragged around on the water, looking confused.

Measuring seventy or eighty centimeters in length when they reach adulthood, this fish has a lot of strength underwater, and it is not easy to catch them.

The general went to consume the physical strength of the fish, and Ao Muyang took another fishing rod and hooked it to fish.

He already knew the routine, and the rest was much simpler: dragging the dog to the bottom of the sea, as long as he passed by a treasure fish, there would definitely be a fish on the bait.

Catching another one, he retracted the wheel seat and began to compete with the hooked fish.

Soon the big fish under the water boiled by the general lost its strength, and then it swam back with a fishing rod in its mouth. Ao Muyang exchanged fishing rods with it, and sent it into the sea, and then the general was dragged into the sea again.

Ao Muyang shook the wheel seat easily, the fish had been tossed weak, and after leaving the water, he barely swung his tail, and then he could only reluctantly accept the ravage.

Treasure fish are only valuable if they are alive, but the fishing boat is so large that there is no pool available, how to deal with the treasure fish so that they can stay alive and wait for sale?

Ao Muyang swept the fishing boat from head to tail, and finally set his eyes on the fishing net that he had cleaned up before.

He injected a little Jindan water vapor into the big fish and threw it into the fishing net, and then tied the net to the stern of the boat and put it into the sea, so that although the big fish could not move freely, it would have no problem surviving.

Having handled the fish, he gave the hook bait and threw it into the water, and soon another fish took the bait.

About the same time, the general swam back again, Ao Muyang stuffed the fishing rod into its mouth, and let it continue to fight wits and courage with the freshly baited treasure fish: "Sayounara, go you!"

In this way, he dragged the bait to fish first, and after catching the fish, he stuck the wheel seat and handed the fishing rod to the general, so that the general carried the fishing rod into the water, and the treasure fish went crazy and would drag the general to swim around, which could consume the physical strength of the treasure fish.

When the treasure fish has no physical strength, the general drags the fish back to the boat with a fishing rod in his mouth, Ao Muyang gives it another fishing rod, and then puts away the fish that has exhausted his physical strength, and puts it into the fishing net with Jindan water vapor, and so on......

From morning to afternoon, a busy meal, a harvest, Ao Muyang caught more than 50 treasure fish before and after.

At this point, he decided to stop, first, after the treasure fish were hooked, they struggled in various ways, and the frightened fish had dispersed, making it more difficult to fish; second, he accepted it when he saw it, and did not want to fish with all his might; third, the general's tired eyes were straightened......

Fastening the fishing nets, Ao Muyang drove the boat back with a trawl, and he beckoned to the general: "Come, hard-working young man, come and help my father do some work." ”

The general turned over directly to expose his belly, his limbs curled up in front of his chest and remained motionless, his eyes were closed, his tongue drooped, if it weren't for the ups and downs of his belly, it would really be like death.
