Near the fishing grounds on the high seas between the equator and 35 degrees north latitude, Yu You and others drove the You Long and the sea vessel 1000 into this area. ↗

You must know that Yu You has been wandering here for several days, and he still hasn't found anything! It's not just the new crew members who are getting impatient, but some of the old crew members are also feeling some emotions.

Therefore, there was an urgent need for a morale-boosting catch to motivate everyone, and Yu You found that there were relatively large schools of fish living in the area of the seabed at a depth of 300 meters.

Li Amao also came to the side and said, "Mr. Yu, could this be a group of dolphins or some group of smaller tiger sharks?" ”

Yu You shook his head and said: "It is unlikely to be dolphins or sharks, judging from the fishing ground marks on the maritime map, there are no groups of dolphins or sharks gathered in this area, I think the fishing radar should detect a school of tuna." ”

"Tuna? Could it be the bluefin tuna you caught for the first time at sea? I heard Manager Shen say that the value of the tuna caught that time was almost hundreds of millions! Although Yu You relied on the cooperation of the Dolphin Army last time to catch so many bluefin tuna, it is undeniable that Yu You's luck was good, coupled with the operation of Wu Zexun, Song Jiankai and other tycoons, it was handed over to the Japanese who had a great demand for bluefin tuna, and the auction price made Yu You a little surprised.

This also makes it a talking point for Shen Bing and others, as the main person in charge of the Ministry of Oceanography, it is normal for Shen Bing to mention bluefin tuna when communicating with the crew.

You must know that the tuna of this fish species is the best fish species in the tuna family! The high price is a matter of course.

"I don't know, judging by the size, it may be bluefin tuna, but we still need to wait for them to come out of the sea at night, you call Xiao Gao over, I have something to ask him." The master's research project in Binhai Jiaotong University has been completed, as a consultant on board, he naturally wants to go to sea with Yu You, not to mention that it is also his dream to be a fisherman! Otherwise, how could it be through the relationship between Meng Tian, the sister of Jiao University. When he enters the Ministry of Oceanography, he can take the white-collar route, how comfortable it is to sit in the office and blow the air conditioner.

Everyone has everyone's thoughts, and the reason why a master is called a master is naturally his unwilling to be ordinary.

"Okay, I'll call him right away." Li Amao knew that there was a large wave of bluefin tuna 300 meters under the sea, and it was normal for him to be excited as the first mate.

Li Amao also understands that the mood of the crew is very low now, and this news is needed to boost morale.

After a while, the master trotted into the cab. Hurriedly said: "Mr. Yu, there are bluefin tuna on the bottom of the sea?" I listened to Captain Lee. In addition to serving as the first mate of the Youlong, Li Amao is also the captain of the second team.

"I don't know if it's bluefin tuna or not, but this time I called you to ask, what are the species of tuna with a body length of about 2 meters and more than 150 kilograms?" Yu You also estimated the individual size of the fish through the size of the light spot of the fishing radar.

The master thought for a moment and said: "Yellow flag tuna and bigeye tuna can reach this size range, and the long flag tuna weighs only a few tens of kilograms." So it can be ruled out, so the remaining three tuna species are possible. ”

"Divisional scope?"

"The tuna has a long migratory route, so it is a worldwide division, and bluefins, yellow flags, and big eyes can all appear in this area." As a master of ship-accompanying consultants, he gave his own professional answers. However, only one variety is excluded, which is equivalent to three possibilities.

However, according to the market price of tuna that Yu You learned, Huangqi and Big Eye are only tuna with mid-range ingredients, and the price is not too high. It can't be compared to bluefin tuna, it's basically a sky and an underground.

The so-called longflag tuna that was excluded was cheaper. It's just several times higher than ordinary economic marine fish, and it can't reach the intermediate level, let alone be ranked among the high-end level.

"Looks like we'll have to wait until the evening." Yu You plans to release more than 30 dolphins such as Xiaobai, and only the speed of dolphins can compete with tuna, plus dolphins are the existence at the top of the marine food chain, which has a certain deterrent effect on tuna, and to successfully catch tuna, you also need to rely on Xiaobai's strength.

You must know that the speed of tuna can reach up to 160 kilometers per hour, and the speed of the Dragon and the Sea Wheel 1000 cannot compare with the speed of the tuna, so it is necessary to adopt a strategy.

Yu You informed Shen Bing, the captain of the 1000 sea vessel, of the news, and asked him to come over with Zhao Zhongren to discuss the plan for the fishing operation at night.

Everything was ready and around 8pm.

Previously, Yu Yu Yu had already gone to the sea a few hours in advance to check the situation in the surrounding waters, and put Xiaobai and them in the surrounding waters, and after getting familiar with the environment of the sea area, it was conducive to rounding up tuna.

As night fell, the tuna surfaced to the surface of the sea for dozens of meters to feed, and Yu You could connect the radio broadcasts of the two ships in the wheelhouse, and uniformly deploy the personnel who ordered the two ships.

"Lure light on!" Yu You deployed the positions of the two boats and separated them on both sides, forming an outflanking situation, while Xiao Bai Yu Yu had already quietly walked around the rear of the tuna that attracted him at Yu You's signal.

Yu You observed the tuna jumping out of the sea, and his eyes were sharp, and he found that the size of the tuna gathered in this sea area was about 2 meters, and the weight was about 150 kilograms, and the body size was similar to that of bluefin tuna, but the slight difference was that the pectoral fin was larger, and the fish was one size larger than the bluefin tuna, from which it can be inferred that this is not a bluefin tuna.

"Bigeye tuna!" Yu You asked the master beforehand, and he introduced the key points of difference for each species, so Yu You recognized the bigeye tuna at a glance!

"Looks like there are thousands of bigeye tuna!" There are many bigeye tuna that congregate here, and generally 300-1,000 bluefin and bigeye fish gather together during migration.

Yu You watched the surrounding situation in the cab, after the lure light was turned on, the bigeye tuna came one after another, and just attracted the bigeye tuna, it was obviously difficult to catch them all, you must know that the speed of the bigeye tuna is very fast, if you miss the opportunity, it is easy to be escaped by them.

Yu You is waiting for an opportunity! The bigeye tuna was not far from the two boats, and Yu You ordered loudly: "Cast the net!" Burn the wind! The two boats were side by side, and the crew on the boat skillfully operated the trawl, and after the net was lowered, Shen Bing and Yu You forced the bigeye tuna into the net by propulsion.

The two boats went hand in hand, and with tacit cooperation, the number of bigeye tuna in the net reached as many as 10, but the frightened bigeye tuna panicked and fled in the opposite direction.

At this moment, more than 30 Chinese white dolphins, including Xiaobai, who had already outflanked the backway of the bigeye tuna, lined up and blocked the way of the bigeye tuna! After the catalysis and evolution of the ichthyosaur's qi, not only Xiaobai's body length has reached 10 meters away, but his weight is about 10 tons.

The rest of the members of the Dolphin Legion also reached about 5-6 meters, and their weight was about a ton, so the speed of the bigeye tuna was reduced.

More than 30 Chinese white dolphins stand at a depth of more than 10 meters under the sea, like a high stone wall painted with putty powder.

With such an obstruction, the escape route of thousands of bigeye tuna was blocked, and at this moment, the big net of Youlong and Hailun 1000 that caught up behind had covered hundreds of bigeye tuna! The bigeye tuna, which reacted, hurriedly escaped from the deeper waters, but during this time, Yu You's two fishing boats had caught enough bigeye tuna.

It's a pity that about half of the bigeye tuna escaped, and the dolphin army led by Xiaobai has done its best, after all, there are thousands of bigeye tuna! The body size has also reached 2 meters away, and 30 dolphins cannot intercept so many tuna.

Yu You doesn't expect to be able to catch all the 1,000 bigeye tuna, and it is already extremely satisfying to be able to catch half of the net, and according to the practice of the old fishermen, there will always be a chance for the sea fish to escape.

"Haha, Mr. Yu, what a pleasure! I just counted, and the Dragon caught more than 200 tuna! By the way, is this bluefin tuna? Li Amao didn't know much about this species of tuna, so he asked.

Yu You said: "This is bigeye tuna, which is used to make medium-grade sashimi and sushi, and the price cannot reach the level of bluefin tuna. ”

Yu You still can't figure out how much, and he needs to find an expert in this area to inquire after returning to China. Bigeye tuna doesn't seem to sell well in the domestic market.

This aspect of market collection is a matter of Cai Lifan's business department, let's talk about it after returning to the voyage.

The Vessel 1000 also caught more than 200 tuna, so the two boats caught an estimated 500 bigeye tuna, which is half as much as the last bluefin tuna, but far less valuable than the bluefin tuna.

It is conservatively estimated that if 500 bigeye tuna are sold, it will be good to get tens of millions.

After the bigeye tuna was caught, Yu You arranged for people to process the bigeye tuna as soon as possible to ensure its meat quality and taste, bleed and disemboweled, cleaned the internal organs, and then frozen.

500 bigeye tuna, two fishing boats of thousands of tons, it is easy to transport back, this is not Yu You's worry, and the manpower is relatively sufficient, each boat has more than 20 people, respectively, 250 bigeye tuna, the efficiency is still okay.

The catch of bigeye tuna came at a timely time, not only allowing the new crew to train their skills, but also boosting the morale of all the crew members and laying the foundation for the rest of the marine fishing operation.

Although it took a lot of time to find the flood location of bigeye tuna, it was worth the wait, it was much more cost-effective than fishing for hairtail and cuttlefish, and of course it was not so easy to find the migratory route of tuna, it took experience and luck!
