482.Magnificent Fishing Grounds (7/10)

The Challenger 350 refueled in Vancouver, and after a short break, the plane took off and traveled across Canada's east-west territory......

But people's psychology is like this, after having a clear goal, you will feel that things are much easier to do, and time passes a lot faster, Qin Shiou squinted, and the plane arrived at St. John's, and Nelson was already waiting on the dock of the port with the farewell.

"Hey boss, happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, dear Nelson, I wish you a beautiful wife this year." Qin Shiou hugged him warmly.

Nelson smiled and said hopefully, Bird walked out behind him, and the pair immediately started a lively conversation.

Bird showed Nelson some of the paper-cuts, New Year paintings, porcelain carvings, and the like he had brought back from China, and said regretfully, "It's a pity that my sugar man and noodle figure are broken, man, otherwise I must show you the top skills of Chinese craftsmen!" That's amazing! ”

Laughing and laughing, Nelson drove the yacht back to the fishing grounds.

Qin Shiou stood at the bow of the boat with his arms outstretched, facing the cold sea breeze, and he said loudly: "My fishing ground, I'm back!" ”

As soon as the New Year is over, Qin Shiou feels that spring is coming, in fact, in terms of season, this is indeed early spring. But it was still cold in Newfoundland in early spring, and there were patches of frozen ice floating on the sea, which flowed from Greenland in the north.

The snow-white ~ ice floes are large or small, they float on the sea surface one by one, crystal clear, the sun shines on them, as long as the angle is right, they can emit beautiful colorful brilliance.

Qin Shiou remembered that when he first came to the fishing ground in April last year, there was also ice floes at that time, but not as much as now.

When the yacht is close to the marina. The pineapple, which was bored on the beach, raised its head with alert shaking ears and stared intently at the approaching yacht. I saw Qin Shiou on the bow of the boat at once.

Then it got excited and ran down the dock with a snort. At last came a perfect leap, jumped from the pier into the sea, and swam merrily on all fours.

Coupled with going to St. Lawrence Bay to fish for shrimp before, Qin Shiou has not gotten along with pineapples for almost two months.

He told Bird to put down the kayak, and was the first to hug the pineapple in the dinghy, reaching out and scratching its furry head, and paddling it toward the shore.

After returning to the fishing grounds, Qin Shiou packed his things, but Hamlet found him halfway. After seeing him, he said happily: "Hey, dear Qin, how do you feel about going home for the holidays?" Isn't it great? ”

Qin Shiou said with satisfaction: "Yes, you know, I went home for the New Year, just like your Spring Festival, it is so perfect." ”

"And even better, the fourth weekend of March, our town day. How's that, get ready for a party! Hamre shouted, waving his hat.

Qin Shiou chose this time to come back for this reason, the fourth weekend of March every year is the town celebration day of Farewell Town, when the first Europeans to come to Farewell Island came at the end of March. It is not clear which day, whether it was British or French, and which one came.

For a traditional town like Farewell Town, Town Day is a more important day than Christmas. Every house is lit up and everyone gets involved. When the time comes, there will be various programs, and the TV station in St. John's will even record the program.

Of course, Qin Shiou wanted to participate. This kind of feast is to play, not caring if you have a good time, but caring about whether you have fun or not, even if you go to the town to run naked, as long as you are really happy, then no one will laugh at you.

Whoever was sure of the fishery would be involved, and Hamre left. Qin Shiou asked if he wanted to sponsor a sum of money, and Hamlet said no, because of the tourism in the third and fourth quarters of last year, the town is now full of funds, and the economic situation has been greatly improved.

Later, a large group of fishermen such as Shaq, sea monsters, and smoking guns came to Qin Shiou, and they would also do what they liked, and after learning about the Chinese New Year, they came to greet him this time. Qin Shiou brought gifts to them, so they were just distributed to them.

On the second day after returning home, Qin Shiou got up early to exercise, and when he was running on the beach, he saw a flock of short-tailed shearwaters flying to the sea in the distance, with tens of thousands, flying high together, like a dark cloud, which looked very powerful.

Originally, there were more than 6,000 birds left behind by the short-tailed shearwaters, but when the eggs on the beach hatched, Qin Shiou thought that they would all freeze to death.

As a result, he underestimated the species' obsession with the continuation of the race.

These short-tailed shearwaters that have not yet grown up go to the beach every day to look for their younger siblings, and if they find a shell, they will take them into the haystacks of the woods and catch small fish to feed them.

After one winter, the short-tailed shearwater flock grew incredibly large, and two or three thousand chicks survived, and today they are able to fly with the herd.

Winnie also produced a DV documentary at that time, if it wasn't for going home with Qin Shiou for the New Year, she would have completed the post-production and could upload it online.

Qin Shiou was a little surprised to see the short-tailed shearwaters flying away, because the fishery resources in the coastal waters are abundant, and the short-tailed shearwaters rarely fly so far to hunt.

In the next day or two, the short-tailed shearwater always leaves early and returns late and flies to the depths of the fishing grounds to hunt.

Gradually, they flew closer and closer, and a few other birds came, mostly red-footed boobies.

Qin Shiou was a little puzzled at first, but after he put the Seagod Consciousness into the water, he understood that these birds were chasing the fish!

In the last few days, a large group of fish has suddenly appeared in the fishing ground - it may not be very appropriate to describe it as a large group, and the sea god's consciousness has shifted far away, and he can encounter this kind of fish! These fish are so dense and multiplying like stars that they are piled up together, and the vast ocean seems to be unable to accommodate them!

Qin Shiou stood on the dock and looked at the depths of the fishing ground, the sea was dark and black, and thousands of seabirds were flying against the sea with their cries, as long as they fell and opened their mouths, they could always catch a fish, there were too many fish!

Looking at this grand scene, Qin Shiou couldn't help but exhale in shock, and the cigarette gun walked up to him and said, "It's amazing, isn't it?" Schools of capelin fish, they come to the Newfoundland fishery at this time of year, and they and the short-tailed shearwater are two of the two wonders of life in the fishery, although I have seen it many times, and every time I see it, it is as amazing as the first time! ”

"It's not shock, Smoking Gun, it's magnificent! Such a magnificent life, we should be in awe and not just shocked! Qin Shiou muttered.

Capelin fish, also known as smelt, like salmon, is a fish that grows in the river and in the sea. Every spring, the fish stop feeding and travel upstream from the shore to lay sticky eggs in areas of the lower reaches of the river where there is aquatic reproduction.

But that's not all, the North Atlantic capelin lives in the ocean, and their spawning patterns are even more special, if not more spectacular...... (To be continued......) R1292
