85. Red Reef

PS: Let's promote the new public account of the bullet shell, the name is: all-metal bullet shell. The previous ammunition depot was not owned by the shells, but this time the shells made a public account by themselves, mainly introducing some of the marine species that appeared in the article, if you are interested, you can pay attention to it. ****

The sea fishing boat roared, and the outboard engine that Ao Muyang won from Wang Dongliang was full of power, bringing up tall waves and pushing the hull forward rapidly.

Facing the sea breeze and hunting, Ao Muyang is very familiar with this sea area, he has been here several times before, and knows that there is nothing to gain from this area, so he simply pulled anchor into the deep sea.

Ordinary people don't dare to do this, the deep sea is windy, the waves are big, and the sea fishing boat is really a drop in the ocean compared to the vast ocean, and it is said that it will be overturned by the waves.

Ao Muyang doesn't care, he can survive better in the ocean, it's a big deal that he falls into the water after the boat capsizes, and then wait for the right time to turn the boat back over.

The outboard machine he won was extremely resistant to shocks and vibrations, and it was easy not to be damaged. As long as the engine is fine, the boat can continue to run and he can continue to go home.

After moving away from the coast, the number of ships in the sea quickly decreased, so he changed to autopilot mode, dragging a lifebuoy behind the boat, and the whole person hung on the lifebuoy and let the fishing boat drag it away.

He set a slower speed, absorbing the moisture of the ocean while he could lower his head into the water and look down at the bottom of the water, looking for catch.

After leaving the offshore water, the water in the ocean becomes clearer and the life in the water is abundant.

There are reefs in the ocean, and at low tide these reefs become small islands, which are beautiful but too dangerous, and ships are most afraid of hitting the reefs, which often cause heavy losses.

After drifting in the sea for more than three hours, Ao Muyang encountered such a reef, so he hurriedly got on the boat to adjust the course to prevent the fishing boat from colliding with it.

After grazing the edge of the reef, he dropped anchor and stopped the ship.

The presence of reefs will block the currents, cause the surrounding sea currents to accelerate, and if there are undercurrents, it will also cause the currents to mingle up and down, such an environment is suitable for the presence of plankton and sea insects, as well as for the survival of seaweed.

Plankton and seaweed are the food for fish, shrimp and crabs, so naturally there are many fish, shrimp and crabs who like to live on the reef.

Ao Muyang jumped into the water, and the water depth at the reef was less than one meter, and some places even exposed the water.

The sea is filled with crimson vines and leaves, red seaweed, which survives in the cracks of the reef.

He flicked a leaf of red seaweed, and two crabs the size of his palms raised their claws at him, and made a menacing attack stance.

For sea crabs, the size of the palm is not big, not to mention the ruthless roles of king crab spider crab, let's say that the common pike crab in the Chinese ocean is bigger than the adult palm when it is an adult.

But the sea crabs that Ao Muyang sees now are big in their species, this kind of crab is very strong, the head and chest armor are transversely oval, the carapace is thick and hard, the top is uneven, the chelicerae are thick, and they are like two vices when raised.

Compared with ordinary crabs, their dorsal shells have a rare purplish red color, especially the red of the abdomen and leg edges, which is the famous sea treasure red crab.

The general then jumped into the water to swim, and when he saw Ao Muyang lifting the seaweed, he cooperated and plunged down, and soon found two large crabs.

Seeing this, its thick tail wagged, changed course to approach the big crab from behind, and when a big crab was focusing on Ao Muyang, it suddenly opened its mouth and grabbed it from behind.

The big crab waved its big claws frantically, like a black whirlwind Li Kui wielding two battle axes, aggressive and aggressive.

But it can only pretend, the general bites it from behind, this is its seven inches, the crab can't turn around to attack, and the golden shorthair is like most Chinese pastoral dogs, they have a slender mouth, the force area is small, and it is not easy to attack.

The general surfaced, showing off his martial arts and swimming around Ao Muyang with a crab in his mouth.

Ao Muyang beckoned and smiled: "Take it, I'll give you sausages to eat later." ”

After falling into his hands, the crab was still fierce, the big claw was constantly opening and closing, and its mouth was foaming at the mouth, and it looked like it was going crazy.

Ao Muyang looked at its carapace, which had blue-white patterns on it, which was a sign that showed its specific identity.

Red carapace is a general category of sea crabs, which includes many species, purple shell crab, green cover crab, flower cover crab, and this is the flower cover crab.

Among the three varieties, the purple shell crab is the most rare and rare, and it is also the most fat, and the largest one can grow to weigh two catties, and such a two-pound crab can be sold for two thousand yuan in the hotel!

The flower cover crab is not so rare, but it is definitely a good crab, all the red carapace is a good crab, rich in nutrition, tender meat, fat and delicious, it is a high-grade condiment and tonic.

Moreover, compared with other crabs, red carapace also has a great advantage, that is, it has crab paste and crab roe all year round.

The gonads on the abdomen of the big crab in Ao Muyang's hand are bulging semicircles, which proves that it is a female crab and an expectant mother who is about to give birth.

At this time, the crab is the most delicious, and the crab roe inside is particularly fatty.

But Ao Muyang didn't take it, the flower cover crab is also very rare now, this reef is relatively hidden, and no one usually comes to sweep it, so that this group of flower cover crabs can survive, which is considered a providence.

The female crab was about to give birth, so he poured some Jindan water vapor and put it back into the water. There is a colony of crabs around the reef, which he hopes will expand.

Noting down the location of the reef, Ao Muyang marked it on the map, and when the female crabs in this group were produced, he would come back to catch them again.

Releasing some of the Jindan vapor into the seawater, he got back on board and left.

Carefully leaving the reef area, he jumped back into the water to absorb the moisture, and at the same time entered the water to look down on the bottom of the sea.

The bottom of the reef is shallow, and there is a vast sandy seabed underneath, with some seaweed swaying in the sand and a large school of marine fish lying on the bottom of the sea.

These marine fish have flattened sides, the whole is oblong, some are oval, like a piece of paper, their eyes are long on one side of the body, and they are asymmetrical, which is the famous flounder.

Flounder is also divided into many kinds, the surface of these fish on the bottom of the sea is gray-brown, with black spots and brown patterns on it, the flesh is thick, Ao Muyang carefully identified, and finally recognized this as the European flounder in the flounder, which is called treasure fish in China.

Duobao fish like to lie on the gray-white sea sand, their body size is very suitable for benthic life on the seabed, when it is quiet, it is quite hidden, if it is not for Ao Muyang's eyesight is better in the seawater, then he will definitely not find this fish.

Seeing him get on the boat to pull the net, the general threw himself and jumped into the water.

Ao Muyang hurriedly went down and dragged it up, and said, "Don't worry, wait for my password, let's do it together!"

Like red carapace, treasure fish is also a precious seafood, it is mainly produced on the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean, is a very valuable low-temperature economic fish, the natural distribution area from Iceland in the north, south to the European coast near Morocco, relatively produced in the North Sea, the Baltic Sea, Iceland and the waters near Scandinavia, rare wild treasure fish in China.

However, as early as a century ago, China completed the introduction of treasure fish, and today, treasure fish has become an important farmed fish.

Ao Muyang estimates that this school of fish is not purely wild, and they should be schools of fish that escaped from the farm, or descendants of fish that escaped from the school.

In any case, they did not grow up on farms, and it seems that they have lived in the waters around this reef for some time, and there are large fish, small fish and juvenile fish in the school, and they are already wild fish.
