Volume 2 Chapter 156

In addition to the rain and other delays, the construction of nearly a month is physically and mentally exhausting, I just hope that the trap that has spent so much effort and high hopes can work, and if you can't catch fish, you probably have the heart to cry!

A trap more than two meters deep, nearly two meters deep water, and some bait or cut fish from time to time should be able to attract some curious fish to come in, and then come to an urn to catch turtles, hehehehe......

If the reality can follow my inner thoughts, then I can basically give up going to sea and fishing in the future, because fishing in traps will be easier and safer!

On the afternoon of the day the trap was built, I was a little impatient, hanging some fist-sized stones at the bottom of the net, and installing the net in place.

There are not many fish in the pond, only one or two surplus ones are occasionally caught.

But I still fished two or three catties of pomfret from the fish pond very generously, cut it into pieces and threw it into the fish pond......

Every fish in the pond is not easy to come up with, and of course, I hope that the trap will give me more rewards.

In any case, at least be worthy of the fish that you throw down, otherwise it will be disappointing, especially if you dig a trap that takes a lot of effort!

After the fish pieces were thrown down, some soaked corn was also thrown, so that the fish could play in it for a while longer, so that they would not eat a few pieces of fish and then run away.

I can't rush it, and the effect is not immediate, so I just go home after throwing the food in, and come back a few hours later to check the results.

During this period, there is also a very important tool to make, and it is still difficult to catch the fish trapped in the trap of two meters deep and several meters long, so it is very necessary to make a tool for catching fish.

And there are a lot of tools for this, and many of the more efficient ones require at least two people to work together, or go into the water.

Otherwise, there are some methods that are very harmful to the fish, such as catching it or directly stabbing it with a spear, the problem is that these methods have different degrees of damage to the fish, which is not conducive to raising them in the future.

After thinking about it, you can basically only use a copy net, relatively speaking, it should be the most peaceful way to scoop it up directly with a net.

What I wanted to do was a giant net, which consisted of a bamboo pole measuring three or four meters and a triangle with an area of one square meter, surrounded by two layers of fine fishing nets on one side.

When there is a fish in the trap, chase it directly on the shore and put it in the net, which means that it has been successful.

......

Two hours later I set out from the house, because I couldn't contain my strong curiosity, and it was like a cat tickling at home.

After quietly walking near the trap, he didn't have a curiosity to check how many fish were inside, but went straight to the ground.

Then climb to the other end of the net and pull the remaining rope until the water inlet is completely blocked, it takes a lot of force to pull the net, because there are stones hanging from the bottom of the net, but it is all done in three to five seconds, and it is fixed to the stake that is driven into the ground.

After all this, I had time to take my time to appreciate what was going on in the trap, but the moment I climbed up and looked inside, I was dumbfounded.

Seeing the results inside, my heartbeat unconsciously "bang, bang, bang" accelerated......

What words are used to describe the mood at this time, it should be overjoyed, not disappointed!

There are not many fish in the trap, only four or five, but the number of fish in the sea does not determine the number of catches, because it is also related to the size, among which there is a large fish with a body length of more than 50 centimeters.

Even if it's just a common fish, it may not be too tempting to me on the shore, but it must be twice as tempting to people in the water.

It's not just the urge to pick it up, it's also the factor that the fish is big in the water!

The amount of fish caught is actually only one reason for the joy, and the deeper reason is that the trap has succeeded, beyond imagination......

If managed properly, this trap can be used forever, and it can be harvested several times a day, even if only three or five fish are caught at a time, this account is not easy.

Especially in the cold winter, you can catch a large number of fish without getting wet, which is even more gratifying.

After standing there and having fun for a while, I was awakened by the sound of a huge wave that made me realize that the fish in the trap needed to be caught first.

Although the net is simple, it is only a normal operation to catch a few fish in a small trap, but after more than ten minutes, a few fish are all chatting in the bucket! Compared to fishing in the bay of the main island before, the difficulty has dropped by countless levels, and I never thought that fishing by the sea could be so easy, but I only hated myself

I woke up too late.

......

The first net was not satisfied, but it began to fish with pleasure, catching a net almost every day.

But maybe I'm too industrious, and the nets behind me don't have a more gratifying harvest, and on average, there are only a few catties of fish at a time, and small fish below one catty are returned

All were let go.

Until today, there are not many catches in this net, only three or four fish, but there is a species that has been discovered for the first time in six or seven years on the island.

A large eel, a rare species that has always been known only by name......

The moray eel is a ferocious carnivorous fish, but it is still similar in appearance to its "relative" yellow eel, except that it is shortened and thickened!

The meat is very delicious, superior to most fish, and it is also nutritious and has the same nourishing properties as chicken.

The moray eel that broke into the trap was more than one meter long, more than five centimeters in diameter, and weighed at least five catties.

Fortunately, it is so large that if it is only sixty or seventy centimeters, the fishing nets that may enter the water will be directly passed through it, even if it is two or three layers of fishing

The net overlaps to form an interception net!

But the trouble came again, although the fishing net at the inlet could stop it, but my net could not catch up with it, and not only could it not catch up, but it also leaked when it was put in.

No matter how chickens and dogs jump inside, the purpose can never be achieved, which makes people anxious, so angry that I want to jump in and catch it myself!

Fishing nets can't be caught, spears can't be stabbed, and the meat in the bowl can't be eaten in the mouth, not to mention how bad it is.

In the end, I had to go back to my house and bring my fishing tools, and bring with me a pound or so of fresh fish, which I believe was fresh with its fierce personality

Fish meat eel must like.

Once, twice, three times, the bait kept moving as it moved, but each time it reached its mouth quickly, except that it seemed to be right

This is not of much interest!

It wasn't until I was about to lose patience and want to scold it that it bit into the hook and ended the extremely boring fight.

......

Maybe it's not just me who is impatient, but it also feels tired, every time it changes places, there is food dangling around its mouth, and finally it simply eats it, but it also falls for my trick all of a sudden!

As soon as I caught it, I wanted to pinch it to death, but reason told me that it was very dangerous to touch the eel with my hands.

Not only because of its ferocious nature, but also because the moray eel is a very large species, and some of them can discharge.

The chances of electrocuting me are slim to none, but the chances of being stunned for a few seconds are there, and I don't want to experience it, even trying!

It is imperative to eat the eel at night, and if you keep it, you are afraid of being bitten by it, so after finding a stick, you can hit it on the head with a stick until it is completely immobile.

Only then did I take the hook out of its mouth and go home happily, looking forward to the eel feast in the evening.

The handling of eels is a difficult problem, and it is impossible to catch them at all, so it is very necessary to scald them with boiling water before processing, and the gum on their surface is the same as ordinary fish after they are removed.

However, I was stumped by how to make it, the temperature is very high, and the fresh fish will definitely spoil a little until tomorrow, but not after it is cooked.

The evening was very busy, and after removing the excess, the remaining four catties of eel meat were made into several dishes, including grilled eel, braised and stewed eel.

Not to mention eating and drinking nonsense, which makes people disgusted that their stomachs are too small......

While tasting these eel meat, I am very glad that I can wake up in time, otherwise not only will I not be able to enjoy this eel meal, but there will only be fewer and fewer opportunities to deal with fish in the future!

......

The hot weather in summer is getting closer and closer to me, and the days are getting more and more restrained.

Although it is only late June, the temperature has risen very quickly this year, but otherwise it is quite normal!

The high temperature not only makes people cautious when going out, but also very lazy at home, and there has been nothing wrong with everything recently.

This is not a good phenomenon, even if the living conditions have improved to a certain extent, but it is not yet the time to slack off.

Since there is nothing to do, then I can only find something, the area in front of the house is still not enough, and the area of bricks in the sheepfold is too small, so we need some bricks, and the tiles should also be prepared.

After thinking about these things, I decided to make some more bricks, of course, it is not very efficient, it is only done once in a while, after all, there is no motivation if it is not urgent.

However, teasing the sheep has become an important job, and three lambs have joined the original eight adult sheep, and several lambs are unusually docile and very lovable.

Indirectly proves how boring my life is, to the point of playing with sheep!

Finally, I went to the woods to check the situation and the plants, and at the same time widened the road a little more.

It would be great if you could create a circular road around the entire island of woods, so that it would be much easier to go out and check the situation.

A road in the middle of the ring road was opened, and in the future, it was even more flat in between, and the search for things and transportation were not the same as now!
