Chapter 173: Equatorial Seas with Dense Schools of Fish

(Thank you for the 1000 starting coins of the Sky Wolf Roaring Sky War!) The second update was delivered, and today the four more 10,000 words broke out! Reward more than five more outbreaks! )

Three or four days later, six ships were in the waters near the equator. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's already hot when I get here.

"It's like the equator, and you almost don't need to buy winter clothes when you live here." Ami Inoue said with emotion.

"It's so hot in winter now, wouldn't it be hot to death if it was summer?" Ishida smacked his lips.

Bathed in the sun, Minamino Shuichi smiled and said: "It's not good to live here, there is a lot of rain here, the weather is hot, especially if a girl lives here all year round, it's not good for the skin." ”

"Will the skin be dark and rough?" Ami Inoue subconsciously touched her cheek.

"Yes, yellow-black-yellow-black."

"It's better to be in Hokkaido, and you can enjoy the snow, but people here probably haven't seen snow in their entire lives." Amido Inoue.

"That's for sure."

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up and find the fish, I'm under a lot of pressure." Shuichi Minamino chuckled.

"Boss, why don't I see the pressure on your face, I only see that you enjoy the sunshine here very much."

“……”

"Boss, did you say there is a school of tuna here?" Tanimura Ueno asked with a puzzled expression. At this time, there was no understanding of the migration routes and places of tuna. Because with the current technology, it is not possible to install the tracker on the tuna for tracking research. So many people don't know where tuna migrates and where they roost in winter.

A thorough study of tuna was also decades away. However, as a descendant, Shuichi Minamino knew that in winter, tuna either went to the Atlantic Ocean to escape the winter, or came to the vicinity of the equator, or went to the Indian Ocean.

This is also the confidence that he dares to guarantee that he can catch 5,000 tons of tuna in two months, and there are definitely many tuna schools here!

"Of course!"

"Why?" Everyone was curious.

"Because tuna also have to avoid the winter, isn't it the best place for them to be so warm here?" Shuichi Minamino said lightly.

"Oh my God, boss, you still have a point!"

Since coming to the waters near the equator in the Pacific Ocean, Shuichi Minamino's system has prompted a steady stream of fish. Among them is tuna, but there are also other fish. After all, it's not just tuna that is a migratory fish. There are also other fish that migrate here to escape the winter!

However, after coming here, it was obvious that there were many schools of tuna in this area, many of which were hiding in the deep sea, and many of them were foraging in the upper layers of the sea.

"In winter, it's a tuna paradise!" Shuichi Minamino sighed that tuna is also an animal that is afraid of cold.

"Ding-dong...... Due south, a school of yellowfin tuna was found 4 nautical miles away from the host, with coordinates of 104.3 longitude and 29.2 latitude. Quantity: 2384 pieces! ”

"I didn't expect to encounter such a huge school of tuna fish just after coming here!" After listening to the system's prompts, Minamino Shuichi exclaimed in his heart. There are more than 2,000 tuna, which is definitely a large school of fish.

"Tell all the fishing boats to follow us! I'm going to sail the boat. As soon as Minamino Shuyi finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the cab.

"Boss, shouldn't we set up longlines here and wait for the tuna to come to the door? Searching for schools of tuna like this is not necessarily a waste of time. Even if you do, you have to use longline fishing. Ishida asked with a puzzled expression. Tuna fishing is generally done with longlines, which are arranged for tens of kilometers of longlines to wait for passing tuna to come up and bite the hook.

"No, no, no, it's too time-consuming to catch with longlines, and if you find a school of fish, use a trawl directly!" Minamino Shuichi.

"Trawling?"

"Yes, if the three big fishing boats that Carol gave him were to use trawling nets, the effect would definitely be good!" Minamino Shuichi. He vaguely remembered that in the 60s, the US imperialists used a lot of trawls to catch bluefin tuna in the Atlantic. Almost led to the extinction of the Atlantic bluefin tuna! If longline fishing had been used at that time, it is estimated that it would not have caused the tragedy of not having bluefin tuna to be caught in later generations.

However, to catch large schools of bluefin tuna, you need large fishing boats, large super strong trawls. After all, bluefin tuna is too big for a normal trawl to work.

There is a saying in later generations: Where the trawl passes, the big and the small are killed!

Trawling is a very serious injury to fishery resources. Now Shuichi Minamino can't manage so much, and if he doesn't do this, he won't be able to complete the task of 5,000 tons of tuna himself.

"It seems to make a lot of sense!" Ishida scratched the back of his head, half-convinced.

At a distance of 4 nautical miles, it didn't take long for the fishing boat to get closer.

When Minamino used the visual switch to check before, he saw more than 2,000 yellowfin tuna happily feeding in this sea area, because there are many small schools of fish here.

As the fishing boats approached, the sailors saw a shocking scene from afar, the whole sea was churning, and there were tuna jumping out of the sea. A few meters underwater, dense yellowfin tuna is scurrying after the small schools.

Yellowfin tuna swim very fast, so at first glance, it looks like bullets swimming back and forth in the sea.

"Fish, school!" Ishida was looking out from the top of the fishing boat, and when he spotted the huge school of tuna a few hundred meters ahead, his face turned red and he almost couldn't scream.

"Big fish! Boss, big fish! Ishida roared loudly from the lookout.

"Found a school of fish?"

"What kind of tuna fish?"

"It looks like it's big, it's either yellowfin tuna, bigeye tuna, maybe bluefin tuna!"

At this time, Shuichi Minamino also handed over to the old man Kimura to drive the boat, and ran out of the wheelhouse by himself.

"Tell the other fishing boats to drop their trawls and prepare to catch the tuna in this area!" Minamino said loudly.

"Yes, boss!"

Five fishing boats, one supply ship, and the supply ship was watching from the periphery, and the five fishing boats dropped a huge trawl net and killed the tuna fish.

The five fishing boats are arranged in a "one" pattern. If we act together, we can probably catch all the fish in this sea in one go!

All five fishing boats use large trawls! Shuichi Minamino deliberately adjusted the depth of the trawl to a depth of 500 meters to ensure that the tuna could not escape.

The trawls were dragged by the fishing boats and quickly loomed towards the fish, and the yellowfin tuna were unaware that they had been caught in the evil trawls.

Five fishing boats have sailed above the fish, followed by underwater trawls.

As the trawl nets came over and netted the yellowfin tuna into it, the yellowfin tuna realized that the danger was coming, and they tried to escape, but unfortunately they couldn't. The trawls trapped them like a net.

Huge tuna are scurrying around in the trawl, and they are eager to get out of the cage. But this sturdy trawl can't be pierced or broken at all, so they can only jump up and down in a hurry and wait for the fate of judgment!

Half an hour later, the first trawl began to reel.

As the net was reeled, the fierce tuna in the net were jumping in the net. The more anxious they become when they find that the range of activities is getting smaller and smaller. But it was useless for them to be anxious, and what awaited them was to be hoisted onto the deck.

With the first yellowfin tuna hoisted onto deck, everyone on the five fishing boats was busy. When the fish is caught, it needs to be bled and treated, and the internal organs are cleaned up.

All the sailors were in full swing against the hot sun.

The old man Oda is still old and strong, and when he deals with tuna, it is a fast and ruthless one! The tuna was disposed of with a few clicks, and the internal organs were disposed of while bleeding.

An hour later, the fishing is over, and the boats are busy handling the tuna. This time, Shuichi Minamino did the math and estimated that he had caught more than 1,800 yellowfin tuna. Although he escaped nearly 600, he was also very satisfied.

"It seems that the results of trawling with big fish are really good! No wonder the U.S. imperialists almost ran out of bluefin tuna in the Atlantic twenty years later. This effect is truly terrifying. Much better than longlining. Minamino Shuichi said secretly in his heart. The fishing characteristics of longline fishing are different, and longline fishing is a wait-and-wait fishing, which is definitely better than trawling after more than 20 years. Because after 20 years, the tuna is declining, and the fish are not so easy to find. There are still a lot of tuna, so trawling is definitely the first choice when encountering a school of fish!

It's not done here yet, and there is still some tuna left to be processed, and Shuichi Minamino received another prompt from the system: "Dingdong...... Due west, a school of bigeye tuna was found 7 nautical miles away from the host! The coordinates of the fish are 128.2 longitude and 27.3 latitude. The number of fish is 1,582! ”

"Oh my God, there are so many fish here! It's a winter gathering place for tuna, I'm going to make a fortune, haha......" Shuichi Minamino wanted to look up to the sky and smile at the moment.

He ordered the boat to head towards this destination, and during this time he switched his vision to search the surrounding area, and he found that many of the nearby deep water coral reefs were full of tuna scattered in the area. In addition to tuna, there are many other fish. Even swordfish, swordfish, and so on have been seen. If he wasn't busy catching tuna, he would have wanted to catch other fish as well.

To be honest, it was relatively rare to come here to fish from such a distance like him in the 50s. It is estimated that in four or five years, many large fishing fleets will choose to fish in the depths of the Pacific Ocean!

The fishing continues, and this time everyone thinks their boss is too godly. I knew there were a lot of tuna fish here. There is no one in Hokkaido, but there is one! They thought their boss was going bankrupt. But now that I look at it, it's the rhythm of continuing to make a fortune. (To be continued.) )
