Chapter 7: Lake Baikal (7)

"Squeak......

A rusty spring creaked, and with the cold wind, Tan Ziqing and Lao Maozilev pushed open the door of the store from the outside and walked in.

"Brother Yang, why are you sitting here alone in a daze? Is dinner ready? My stomach is almost hungry. ”

patting the wind and snow on his clothes, Tan Ziqing walked over and picked up the teapot on the table, poured herself a cup of hot tea to warm up, and then asked.

"Hah! Suddenly it snowed, and the temperature dropped so much, I was worried about how I would complete my next fishing mission if the lake froze.

Dinner is ready, just wait for you to come back, let's go, let's go and call everyone out for dinner.

By the way, did you hear any news from this trip?"

"There's a piece of news, but let's go eat first, I've been hungry for a long time, and I'll tell you more later."

In this broken weather, the temperature drops as soon as it is said, and suddenly it is more than ten degrees below zero, which is really unbearable.

But don't worry, Lev said that there will be no thick ice on Lake Baikal now.

At least until the end of December, and in January of next year, what you're worried about won't come up. ”

"That's good news, let's go! Let's go to dinner first, and talk while we eat. ”

………………

The golden fried eel slices are drizzled with a fragrant sauce, stir-fried flower mussels, spiced beef, and fish fillet hot pot that comes with every meal.

Yang Zi and his family stayed in this small hotel for a few days, and every time they had a meal, the proprietress of the store and the clerk liked to come over to eat with them.

Delicious Chinese cuisine, after they ate it once, they fell in love with the taste completely.

In return, the other party is willing to provide some ingredients and venues for free, and when purchasing, you can also help Yang Zi buy some condiments that are not available here.

It's a win-win partnership, so everyone is having fun.

At the same time, it also proves that no matter what country it is, there will always be no shortage of foodies, but the degree of development is not as good as that of China.

………………

According to the boatman's words, the fish was almost longer than his boat, at least five meters away.

They passed by two or three meters apart, because the other was too big and afraid of capsizing, and the fisherman did not dare to cast his nets when he watched it disappear into the water. ”

A large table of people was eating lively, and Tan Ziqing gestured with her hands and feet, and talked to Yang Zi about the news she heard today.

I heard that in order to prevent pollution from the upper reaches, the government is more strict about that area.

However, because of this, the fish resources there are well protected, and the presence of eels here is also in the past.

Then let's go over there tomorrow and have a look!

This weather is getting colder and colder, and if there are a few more heavy snowfalls, I estimate that our mission plan will be yellow. ”

After listening to the news that Tan Ziqing brought back, Yang Zi quickly made a decision.

When the other party returned in the afternoon, he was led by Lev to find an old fisherman near the port.

Coincidentally, not long ago, in the delta of the Selenga River, the fisherman had encountered the big fish that Yang Zi was looking for.

And according to his description, the size of this fish is already very small, and it fully meets their fishing requirements.

"Husband, isn't that far from here on the other side of the Selenga River?

If it was the same as there today, I didn't want to go, the seasickness was too uncomfortable. ”

Listening to Yang Zi's planned itinerary, Qiaoqiao asked with some trepidation.

Including Ah Ling and Ah Feng, the three of them are obviously very concerned about this issue.

"It shouldn't be as far away as it is today, but I think it's better for you to go together.

Unless you don't follow me for future sea shooting, then it doesn't matter.

Otherwise, this is something that needs to be faced sooner or later, and you know, compared to the wind and waves on the sea, Lake Baikal is already very gentle.

Actually, you don't have to think about it so scary, today is that you haven't gotten used to it, so it's going to be so serious.

Once you get used to the process, you won't be fine in the future. ”

Looking at Qiaoqiao and his companions, who were afraid of this, Yang Zi took a sip of tea, and then said his suggestion with a smile.

As he said, there is no way to do this, if they don't overcome the problem of seasickness, they want to go fishing with them in the sea in the future, which is almost impossible.

This is a hurdle that must be crossed for sailing.

Listening to Yang Zi's analysis, the three people who were very concerned about it made a decision without much thought.

Ah Ling and Ah Feng, when it comes to such a promising job, of course they will not back down from this.

And Qiaoqiao has already made up her mind, she will go wherever Yang Zi goes, so she will not give up.

Yang Zi saw that everyone had no opinions, so he diverted the topic and talked about other things of interest.

………………

The Selenga Delta is the largest river confluence of Lake Baikal.

It is this densely vegetated wetland that filters out garbage and sewage from the upper reaches of the lake, which keeps the water quality of Lake Baikal clean.

Since the government became concerned about the pollution of the lake, it has been taken very seriously, and they have designated the area as a nature reserve to curb the deterioration of the environment.

After Yang Zi and his entourage entered this wetland by yacht, it was like sailing into a water park.

The shore is sometimes tall and dense with spruce and red pines, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of moss and fallen leaves.

Sometimes there is a small puddle, lined with grass and moss, as if you have come to the grassland of the interior.

Interspersed with the Selenga River, since it is not the rainy season, the water is clear and the flow is gentle.

As a result of the sediment it brings, the wetland has been piled up into countless islands of various sizes, which continue to grow in size.

Because it just snowed yesterday, and now this is the season when the river starts to freeze, so you can still see a thin layer of ice condensing on the bank of the river.

Yang Zi and the others drove the yacht, followed the larger tributaries, and patrolled back and forth here, and then selected one of the ecologically rich ones, and began to pack up the fishing gear, preparing for today's fishing work.

"Brother Yang, the water level of the river here seems to be very shallow, will there be a harvest for fishing here?"

While looking at the surrounding environment, Tan Ziqing asked curiously.

"Haha! There shouldn't be any rays here, I want to see the distribution of other fish species for reference.

The fisherman you were looking for, since the fish have been seen around here, there must be something here that attracts them.

Now this season, the only thing that can keep them wandering around is food.

Therefore, finding out the fish where they appear will be very helpful for the next search work.

Here we can go fishing while drifting down the river and then look for it at the entrance of the confluence.

The sedimentary area, where small and medium-sized fish are concentrated, is an ideal hunting ground for eel.

If we're lucky, we might be able to finish the task ahead of schedule. ”

After packing up a light lure rod, Yang Zi hung up the insect bait suitable for river fishing, and began to stand on the side of the boat, casting the bait at the places suitable for the fish to hide.

The most pleasing moment of lure fishing is when the rod tip line flies and the lure falls into the water accurately.

In particular, the popular fly fishing method, using colorful fishing lines, when flying in the air, the flying dragon, no trace of free and easy, and elegant, has won a lot of loyal fans.

Yang Zi has been in contact with Lu Yagan for a long time, but because he uses it less, he is still in the stage of stepping towards familiarity.

Although there is no problem with the accuracy, there is still a lot of gap from the degree of beauty, so it can only be said that it is just enough.

The small fake bait falls into the water accurately under the impetus of inertia, and its own gravity makes it sink into the water quickly after falling into the water.

At this time, Yang Zi, who controls the fishing line, only needs to pull the fishing rod lightly, and the scribing on the fake bait will drive himself, mimicking the illusion of insects struggling in the river.

If a fish that feeds on it is hidden nearby and tempted by it, it will swim over and chase and devour it.

This kind of fishing method is widely adapted, targeted and deceptive, and it has no low requirements for operation.

Gently shaking the fishing rod in his hand, Yang Zi observed the environment on the shore while exploring.

Yesterday's snow has decorated the banks of the river in silver.

Except for the occasional field under the pine and fir trees, many places are covered with snow.

In this fairytale ice and snow world, Yang Zi found a lot of wild animals probing around.

Maybe this year's heavy snow came relatively early, and some small animals that were busy preparing for hibernation couldn't wait to run out to find food after the weather improved a little bit today.

Squirrels, snow hares, grouse, and many other birds rummaged through the woods, watching warily at the moving behemoth in the river.

Siberia is inaccessible, so these animals are not so afraid of people.

"Brother Yang, look! There's a little fox there!

It's so beautiful! It's compared to my meow, can we go ashore and go shopping?"

Looking at a snow fox that appeared on the shore, Qiaoqiao greeted loudly.

"Not now, the river bank here, the soil is very soft, you can't get on the shore if you step on it.

And have you forgotten the big bear that appeared on the other side of Kanas Lake?

What if this place also runs out and treats you as a snack?

When we're done with our tasks, let Lev take us to the botanical reserve here. ”

"Uhhh

And, isn't there still you?"

A little far-fetched, he smiled and retorted reluctantly.

"Hey, there's a rare one in our group who isn't afraid of bears!

Then you go and ask Brother De, is that bear very friendly to people?"

Yang Zi threw the bait again towards the shore, and after the bait fell into the water, he shook the bait while looking at Wood next to him with a funny look.

"Zizi!"

Just as he was about to say something, the reel of the fishing rod in his hand suddenly began to draw out quickly, and the tip of the rod also bent into a bow.

There are fish on the hook!

Sensing the situation in the water, Yang Zi hurriedly lifted the pole hard, and a lot of force came from the tip of the rod, showing that the fish that bit the hook was not too small.

It just so happened that today's lunch hadn't been delivered yet, and it couldn't wait to be delivered to the door.

Yang Zile pulled the rod to close the line, and started a life-and-death struggle with the other party on the river.
