Matt began to cast the bait, and Bei Hai stayed in the cabin and listened to the voices coming from the public channel on the radio. It's all the voices of some captains, from here Bei Hai knows which boat has caught another fish, or the captain who hasn't caught it with envy.

Just as Bei Hai was listening, he heard the radio intercom on his ship ringing.

"Hello, Ripple" Bei Hai received someone else's radio for the first time, and he was still a little happy in his heart, and even his tone was a little excited.

Diego's voice came from the other end of the intercom: "Hull, it's me Diego!" Have you left the port? ”。

"I've already left the port, and I'm all down to fish," Bei Hai said happily to Diego, "How are you doing over there?" What's the catch? ”。

Listening to Diego's tone, Bei Hai knew that there was something good about this person, and the excitement in his words could be felt through the intercom.

"Yes! Of course there is a harvest" Bei Hai's sentence scratched Diego's itch and immediately said to Bei Hai: "I haven't sued anyone else in this place, I have caught two from yesterday to today, one yesterday is just enough size, today one is more than 400 pounds, it is estimated that at least 5,000 dollars, this year is a good start, thank you, Hull!" ”。

"You're welcome!" Bei Hai listened to it and was directly happy, it is estimated that the original few fish have gone back, and the food on the bottom of the sea in that place is still relatively rich, that is, the first few fish may not go back or other fish may go over, in short, Diego caught a fish, which is also good news for Bei Hai.

"No wonder I didn't hear anyone on the radio discussing your gains," Behai said to Diego.

Diego laughed: "No one else asked me, they probably didn't know I caught a fish!" By the way, why didn't I see your ship? ”。

At this time, Diego remembered that he had not seen Bei Hai's ripple at all, so he called to ask, and this ripped on his catch.

"I'm not there, I've just dropped anchor in a new place, and Matt is throwing bait......," Bei Hai said into the intercom.

Bei Hai was talking to Diego here, Matt listened to the call in the cockpit clearly, and heard that Diego had caught two fish at the point indicated before Bei Hai arrived, although it was not too big, one had just crossed the minimum fishing line of 185 cm, but now for the fisherman, every bluefin tuna is precious, no matter how big or small, as long as there is a catch. Don't look at the small size of some fish, maybe the quality is higher than twice the size.

Hearing these words, Matt's heart finally let go of a little bit, listening to this meaning that his 'little captain' is a little more powerful than Diego, although Diego is not the best among all the tuna captains, and he can't be counted in the fishing season every year, but he must have been doing it for ten or twenty years, and the level is still a little bit.

If Beihai's level is above Diego, can his work be more stable this fishing season?

"New place? What about fish? As soon as he heard that Bei Hai had arrived in a new place, Diego immediately opened his mouth and asked.

"Would you like to come here?" Bei Haixian didn't say the coordinates, but just asked Diego.

"I'd better be here first, there are still a few fish on the radar, they are a hundred and fifty meters underwater, and Istar is luring them up, and they don't look small," Diego said to Bei Hai.

As soon as Diego's words fell, Bei Hai heard the sound of the fish detection radar on his ship from the intercom.

"I won't tell you, another fish is coming up, it's a good place!" Without waiting for Bei Hai to answer, Diego over there immediately hung up the phone. I guess I went to the stern of the boat to see if the fishing rod was bent or not.

Putting down the intercom, Bei Hai walked to the stern of the boat and watched Matt cast the bait.

Matt looked at the 'little captain' who was sticking out his head and looking at the water, and asked, "Why don't you go to Diego's place, it seems that you are suing him in that place."

Matt's mind felt a little strange when he thought about it, if there was a new fishing spot, even the most generous tuner would not tell others, let alone catch a few at once, even if he had caught one, the old fisherman would not tell others.

Even if the relationship between the two on the shore is not bad, it is difficult to get someone else's new fishing spot, which is a livelihood and for some people, it is also a survival, and tuna is an important way to settle the family's bills.

"Tuna is also a fish, and there are still traces to be found under the analysis of living habits, so you can guess where there are fish in a big place, and the probability of having a big fish is also seen through the sea water, and the more nutrients in the water, the greater the probability of having a big fish, these are all can be introduced through some observations, and then you have to add luck, this is very important......" Bei Hai looked at the sea water intently and ran the train with his mouth full.

In fact, if there were no underwater dogs, Bei Hai would have known a school of tuna, what lived on the bottom of the sea, fed on the bottom of the sea, and so on, and fishermen would have known about it a hundred or two hundred years ago, and they still used Bei Hai to say? Guan Jian is Bei Hai knows that he is saying this, others are not easy to ask, even if he asks how to see the richness of the sea, he can not answer, after all, this is a fisherman's food, and the tuna season is catchy, the United States now does not even allow trawlers to catch bluefin tuna, this kind of competition is fierce.

Bei Hai was talking nonsense here, and for the first time, the fish-finding radar on the Ripple sounded a cheerful tick alarm on Bei Hai's hand.

Bei Hai immediately ran to the cab after hearing this, only to see several red lines on the fish detection radar, which were displayed accurately and clearly on the screen.

"It's all good fish," the old fisherman Matt stuck his head out, and when he saw the length and thickness of the red line on the screen, he knew that the tuna under the boat were not small. With that, Matt returned to the side of the bait box and began to throw two or three pieces of bait together.

Just after two tosses, one of the fishing rods in the stern of the boat immediately shook slightly, and then bent into a bow.

"Hooked!" Matt immediately put down his little iron fork and ran towards the bent rod.

Bei Hai immediately wrapped up the fishing line on the other two rods, and quickly rolled the line as fast as he could, preventing the two fishing lines from getting entangled in the fishing line of the fish, as long as it was entangled, the fishing line would basically be broken, and the fish would be gone.

After putting away the two poles, Bei Hai stood behind Matt.

Matt was concentrating on the thread, pulling it firmly round and round.

"Do you want me to help?" Bei Hai asked.

"No, you don't! You'll be able to steer the boat," Matt said happily to Bei Hai, what could be happier for a fisherman than to pull a big fish.

Bei Hai also has the heart to test Matt's level, as an old fisherman, experience, of course, means fewer mistakes. Bei Hai wanted to see if the fish could be dragged onto the boat from now on with Matt alone, without the help of the earth dog. Of course, as long as Matt doesn't miss a shot, when it's time to use the harpoon, Bei Hai can't let the fish run away.

"Move forward!"

Bei Hai heard Matt say this and immediately pushed the control station on the side of the ship, this control station is easier to see the fish in the clear water, tuna fishing boats generally have such a simple control station in the stern, but each boat according to the captain's habits, the position of this thing is naturally different, the control station of the Corrugated is in the middle of the port side of the stern.

According to Matt's words, Bei Hai controlled the boat for about ten minutes, and the first fish of the Ripple was pulled to the side of the boat by Matt without danger.

"I've seen it, Captain, prepare the speargun, it's a bigfish! it's so beautiful," Matt said to Bei Hai.

Matt turned his head after speaking, and saw that Bei Hai had already stood next to him, and the extra-long fishing spear in his hand had flown out, and the extra-long fishing spear almost did not splash, and accurately pierced the fish's front and back.

"Beautiful!" Matt couldn't help but praise, with his experience for so many years, if it weren't for the coincidence that there would be no more than five fishermen of this level in the entire Gloucester with this level.

The lance pierced the back of the fish accurately, Bei Hai retracted the rope at the tail and pulled the tuna to the side of the boat, and soon the fish was pulled to the side of the boat, and Matt picked up the lasso and put the tail on.

Although it was the first time they did it together, the two of them acted like walking together, opening the gate and dragging the fish, and in just five or six minutes after throwing the lance from the sea of shells, the bluefin tuna was dragged onto the boat.

"YES! This fish is over five hundred pounds," and as soon as the fish was on the boat, Matt and Bei Hai gave a high-five, and began to prepare to take care of the fish.

First cut a knife at the base of the fish's tail for bloodletting, then took out the gills at the head of the fish, and then took out the internal organs, waiting for a series of actions to be completed, and the fish blood was also released. The whole action was done very fluently by Matt, there was almost no pause in between, and the fish on the deck were dealt with when the blood flowed.

Next, the two of them used the small crane on the boat to hold the tail of the fish, hoisted the fish into the storage tank, and finally completely covered the fish with ice, which is the real processing to complete the work on the ship.

After finishing a qiē, putting the bait back on, and throwing the rod into the sea again, Matt happily twisted his body and danced an unknown dance, singing a song and throwing the bait into the sea at the same time.

I didn't understand what song the old man was singing, anyway, it was old Morgan's pleasure and antics that made Bei Hai happy.

"Our first fish! Captain, you're awesome! Matt twisted his body and beckoned to Bei Hai: "Come together!" ”。

Bei Hai also twisted his ass when he heard this, and followed Matt to feel the joy of this harvest.
