Chapter 462: Snow Crab Silk Road

The shrimp cage was pulled up by the machine, and there was something crawling inside.

The carapace was about two turns smaller than the dough in the bucket, but it was more than 16 centimeters wide, and its eight legs were tightly arranged, and a pair of tongs were still clamping......

"Cobbler Crab!" Malena kept her eyes on the catch, and when she saw what it was, she blurted out a name!

"Bah, it's a red eye! Jennifer, can I bring the red-eyed snow crab back to Hong Kong now? Tang Hai took one out of the basket of snow crabs.

Snow crab is often called Matsuba crab in Japan, cobbler crab in the United States, and queen crab in Canada.

But in fact, the largest place in the world is still in southwest Australia. The snow crab produced in Australia is great, but the same thing can be sold expensive, there will be fakes, there are often traders in Australia who sell Australian crystal crabs as snow crabs, unless the general public is often eaten, otherwise it is easy to be fooled by the vendors.

Unlike the domineering species such as king crabs or hairy crabs, this thing quickly weakens as soon as it leaves the water.

Without careful differentiation of subspecies, there are generally only two types, one is gray-eyed and weighs between 700 grams and 1100 grams, and the other is red-eyed and weighs between 1400 grams and 2500 grams.

This is currently the world's largest annual production of economic crabs!

What is fishing not fishing?

Tang Hai's original purpose was to catch Arctic shrimp, but as long as you don't catch too cute mammals, or some fishing that may lead to the extinction of species, Tang Hai will catch anything! Not to mention that this set of cages itself is a crab fishing tool, and shrimp fishing is an amateur......

Just when Tang Hai wanted to make a big deal, Jennifer walked up to him and picked up one as well.

The gap between laymen and insiders is not only in terms of vision, but also in the focus of some things!

Compared to Tang Hai, he saw that snow crabs wanted to catch and make money, although they were not as expensive as top arctic shrimp. But the price of snow crab is not below that of king crab, and the yield is more domineering......

Jennifer didn't think about making money from this at all, so she took it and looked at it, and the snow crab spat bubbles at her.

"It's not yet the fishing season, so I didn't expect it to be able to hit this depth, probably because of the polar temperatures...... But you want to make money on this idea. I guess it's going to be in the soup. ”

"Why?"

"Let's talk about pulling the cage first, and it doesn't necessarily mean that it won't be 100% fishing, but there are some things that are more valuable than fishing."

Jennifer's words Tang Hai didn't understand, only Hadley was thoughtful, including a wise man like Merlin couldn't understand it.

If you want to have a 'fishery view' in the fishing world, you must have a clear understanding of the entire fishing industry, and Merlin is a wise man. But not a fishing expert.

This cage has more than 40 kilograms of snow crabs, but there is no way to return to the sea, all the fishermen are distressed, a cage is half a smartphone, just throw it away......

Mary took a few and gave them to the two birds and the round seal, and it was delicious. But the sea area where they live is too deep, often to a depth of less than two thousand meters. Humans often lose them during their non-spawning season, and their spawning season is at least a few hundred meters down, and if it weren't for the crab cage of the dahlia, it would not be possible to catch them.

Compared with king crabs and hairy crabs, snow crabs are basically blind, and they have lost the ability to see. There is no difference between the eyes and the white length.

There are some microorganisms parasitic on them, some scientists think they live by eating this kind of microorganisms, and some think they are not, this is a kind of magical creatures that humans can catch in large quantities at present, but have not yet deciphered their living habits.

What people know about them. What everyone has no objection to is that the yield is large and the taste is good......

The three little animals ate very happily, and all kinds of satisfied cries sounded from time to time, and the fat seal rubbed his head against Mary from time to time to express his love.

Marlena pouted and played on the other side, tied the snow crab with a rope and wanted to lead the snow crab away, but the snow crab was not a king crab, and she didn't have much strength after getting it, and Marlena had a lot of fun......

The second cage is pulled up, and it's snow crab again!

A series of cages were pulled up, either snow crabs or cod, and there were very few shrimps, and the rest of the boats replied as well!

They're on the snow crab's territory!

Looking at the cute and silly bowhead whales, Tang Hai sighed and leaned on the fence: "Can these things dive to that position?" Their chrysanthemums are so strong...... I just don't know if they eat king crab or not......"

"......" Merlin decided not to answer.

A cage is full of snow crabs, and finally has to be put back into the sea, rough statistics are about more than 200 tons, Tang Hai doesn't feel anything, sea fishing is a matter of gains and losses, but the tail of these people liver pain.

Jennifer took a very exaggerated photo, thousands of cages were densely piled on the Little Princess, and there were three other ships of Dahlia, and the last cage of snow crabs of about forty or fifty catties......

"Let's go back."

"Are we going back to Washington State?" Tang Hai sighed, could it be that this is fate, he said that he would catch 1,400 tons of arctic shrimp and leave, and the result was really this number.

"Wait a few days, I think the news will come down."

"What are you waiting for?"

Jennifer didn't make it clear, only that it would be of great benefit if she didn't do it well.

Back in Barrow, Dahlia is back this time with zero harvest.

After all, the previous catch of Dahlia can be compared with the output of 10,000 tons of shrimp fishing ships for at least half a year......

Shrimp fishing boats are generally bound to bring Arctic shrimp ashore within 3 months, and it is common for them to be less than 1,000 tons at a time, and they will not all be large.

The Dahlia fleet has defied the sky.

It is normal for the fleet against the sky to miss once, and no one can guarantee their 100% victory.

But then soon news came out that the Dahlia fleet found snow crabs somewhere in the northern Chukchi Sea, and the number was very large, with a single catch of more than 200 tons, but because there was no quota and had to give up, and then received a reward of 1 million!

The snow crab fishing grounds in the Northern Hemisphere are the North Pacific Ocean, the Bering Sea, the North Atlantic, and no one knows that there is also this in the Polar Circle!

Many years ago, a Russian scientific research organization brought several king crabs to the vicinity of Novaya Zemlya in the Barents Sea, trying to replicate the myth of king crabs in the Bering Sea, and the result was ......

"I'm sorry, it's too cold in the Barents Sea, so we're going to settle in the Norwegian Sea!" A few king crabs said this, and then ran away, and now tens of millions of king crabs in the Norwegian Sea are actually children of these few people.

A few decades later, probably a decade ago, a large number of snow crabs were discovered in the Barents Sea, which are more hardy than king crabs!

All scientists and ecologists have a headache, how did these snow crabs pass? Could it be that which scientist smuggled it again?

The fishing fleet of the Tang Sea has discovered the 'Silk Road' where snow crabs are hiding under the iceberg!

Invasive species are a terrible global problem, and Dahlia received a large prize money straight away, and then scientists came to investigate......

In a Korean restaurant.

"The Norwegians are so pitiful, first the king crab invasion, then the snow crab invasion! Ah, what the hell is to save the Norwegians! Tang Hai sighed blindly while drinking coffee.

Malena said lightly: "As long as the refugees also invade, their crabs will be gone." ”

“……”

“……”

"I'll go out for a walk, don't run around." Tang Hai moved his shoulders and got up to leave.

I just asked for a bottle in the supermarket outside, and I saw a middle-aged man.

Although he had never seen each other, Tang Hai had a strange feeling that he seemed to know each other.
