Day 46, Fishing (Part I)

The memories of last night hit me so hard that my emotions almost went completely out of control. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was almost early in the morning that I recovered.

So now my head hurts like a pinprick in a pin, and my injured arm is getting more and more painful because of the overload yesterday.

However, it is precisely because of yesterday's emotional outburst that my current state of mind has become very stable, and my originally suppressed mood has been released at once.

Recently, for some reason, my body has been feeling tired and sleepy, but at about this point every day, I can't fall asleep again.

"That's it." I sighed and got up.

In the morning, I rarely go to eat the main food, so I can grab a few fruits and nibble on them a few times.

Outside, you can see the state of life, and the decision to transplant this small garden proved to be very wise.

Many small butterflies, bees, and flying insects are attracted by the fragrance of the flowers, and they are busy flying up and down among the flowers.

The scent of flowers hit me in the face with the direction of the wind, and I took a deep breath, and the air mixed with the smell of various small flowers almost intoxicated.

It's a good day today, so I'm going to pick up some turtle eggs first, and then try to use these broken nets to see if I can catch some seafood.

After many days, I don't know if these turtle eggs can still be eaten, whether there will be baby turtles in them, yes, I don't have any common sense in this regard, I don't know how long this turtle hatching cycle is, so I still have some apprehension in my heart.

After many days of sea washing, there are no traces of turtles digging holes to lay eggs on the beach by the sea, only flat dry sand.

I didn't need to look for it, I saw that the whole beach was almost full of turtles that night, and I thought that one night should not be enough time for all the turtles to lay eggs.

Although I haven't been to see it since then, there are probably many waves of turtles coming.

Indeed, when I picked a random spot to cut the sand by hand, a pile of turtle eggs appeared in front of me.

To test my suspicions, I picked up a random turtle egg, but it was different from the first time I got it, the first time the egg was soft, but this time, the shell was as hard as an egg.

I pinched it hard and crushed it, and the sticky yolk in the turtle egg flowed in my palm, dripping from my fingers, and I could see clearly, and there was no baby turtle or baby turtle embryo that I feared.

This makes me very happy, the turtle egg fried rice is one of Xiao Hei's favorite foods, and his greedy appearance is still deeply engraved in my mind last time.

When I first went out to look for turtle eggs, I originally wanted to take it with me, but this guy actually caught a butterfly on the edge of the small garden, and watched it rush into the flowers several times and trample down several clusters of small wildflowers, I was a little distressed, after all, it was finally transplanted and survived.

In the end, though, I didn't scold it, and I don't want to blame it for such a trivial matter.

So when I came to the beach, it was still there teasing butterflies and little flying insects, and it didn't pay any attention to me.

The number of turtle eggs is huge, and in just ten minutes, I get hundreds of turtle eggs smaller than table tennis eggs, and the basins I bring with me are full of them.

After a few back and forth, I should have stocked up on more than 500 of these milky turtle eggs, which I had piled up in a plastic basket with a layer of leaves at the bottom.

Today, the sea is still big and there is no sign of low tide, so I wanted to go to the sea to set up a fishing net and catch some seafood to improve the taste.

However, the tide is so strong that I am afraid that I will accidentally fall into a deep pit under the surface of the sea, and I do not want to lose my life for food.

However, I didn't give up on getting seafood, and I had an idea, I had seen others cast nets to catch fish before, so I started tinkering with it from memory.

I went back to the treehouse, picked a fishing net with the smallest mesh, tied the broken net with hay, and after repairing all the damage, I found stones larger than the mesh in the yard, folded them with the edges of the net, wrapped them in the net, and threaded the rattan through the net, and tied them firmly into the net.

Soon, the net was folded into an oval shape by me, and it was surrounded by small stones.

The small stones didn't use much, they looked like more than a dozen, and there were four larger stones, which I put on the four corners. In the middle of the entire oval net, I tied a very long, thick vine to it.

It only took 40 minutes to make, and I had only seen a few times before with a hand-cast net.

Of course, the choice of the location of the net is also very important, and I can't stupidly run to the beach to throw it, so I can only throw it at my feet.

I chose the edge of the reef on the side, the reason is simple, there is a large and deep area outside the reef, several meters, and I have the impression that there will be a lot of small fish and shrimp hiding on the edge of the rock or the bottom of the reef, which will attract predatory fish.

What's more, if I'm standing on a reef, I only need to throw a meter or two forward to get the hand-cast net to the deep water, which is why I chose this place.

Soon, a section of the vine was wrapped around my arm, and some of the vines were reserved and placed on the ground, and then I grabbed the middle of the hand-tossed net, threw it up vigorously, and after two turns, threw it......

As a result, I was shocked, and the whole hand-thrown net was squeezed together and fell straight into the sea.

Of course, this was a failure for the first time, so it's strange that you can catch fish like this.

The second time, failure!

The third time, failure!

……

Thirty-sixth, failed!

……

I don't know how many times I tossed it !! succeeded, but when I was about to doubt my life, the whole hand-tossed net finally spun and flew out like a handkerchief that was lifted and rotated by my fingers.

Immediately afterwards, it was smoothly dragged by the stones and fell into the sea, and with a "poof", it sank to the bottom of the sea.

I hurriedly followed the speed of its sinking and put the rattan as fast as I could, and the lower the net, the faster it became, and I had to speed up the speed at which I put the vine several times.

Finally, when there were not many vines in my hands, the hand-tossed net finally came to the end.

I didn't pull it up right away, but waited a little longer, as if I could get the fish struggling from the vines.

After rubbing my hands back and forth a few times, I began to pull back, and the eagerness made my whole body explode.

"It's so heavy!" I shouted excitedly as I pulled.

The hand-tossed net is about to come out of the water, will this heavy hand-tossed net be full of fish?

I couldn't help but widen my eyes, just waiting for the moment when the fishing net broke out of the water!

"It's out!"

"This ......!"
