Chapter One Hundred and Two: Captain Ueno

Seasickness is related to everyone's body structure, and has nothing to do with health conditions, not that the stronger the person, the more resistant to the effect of seasickness, but if there is a strong wind on the sea surface and the surge is very high, even the sailors who go to sea all year round are still seasick, and then the physical fitness should be reflected, and the healthy person will recover faster after seasickness.

Towards noon, the boat finally slowed down, and the fishing port dock on Miyake Island arrived. Captain Ueno is very familiar with this place, he directly found a tavern, let everyone have some lunch and rest, the original plan was to have lunch on the boat, and then go straight to the fishing spot to start fishing, but because Zhou Xiaoli's seasickness is more serious, Ji Lu paddle temporarily changed.

This izakaya is very ordinary, no different from those izakaya in Tokyo, even the decoration is almost the same, but one thing that is very special is that the surrounding walls are covered with fishing photos, some of which are obviously tinged with a faint yellow, and it looks like it is some years old.

The content of the photo is the same, the people on it, regardless of gender, old and young, are all holding or carrying a fish, and then cracking their mouths and giggling, but this does not affect Hong Tao's aesthetics, if possible, he also wants to giggle and occupy a place on the wall.

Zhou Xiaoli's seasickness symptoms came and went quickly, since the boat docked, she was able to stand up and walk around by herself, and when she came to the izakaya, her appetite also improved, after a big bowl of ramen noodles, she also drank a little wine with Captain Ueno, in addition to her face was still a little pale, she basically became a good man again.

However, Captain Ueno is still a very responsible person, and he suggested that everyone rest on the island for a day first, and by the way, let Zhou Xiaoli recover her strength, and wait until tomorrow morning to set off to go to the fishing spot. For his suggestion Hong Tao is happy to adopt, although Zhou Xiaoli herself insisted that the seasickness was an accident, and now the body has recovered as before, but according to the principle of the minority obeying the majority, everyone still lived on the island, as for the residence is still arranged by Captain Ueno, the name is homestay, that is, to live in the homes of the residents of the island, which is a bit like the hot spring hotel under Mount Fuji.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, without Captain Ueno to call, Hong Tao and a few of them had already run to the dock. At this time, Ueno and another boatman were using a small bucket to get water from the sea to clean the deck, and when they saw that Hong Tao and they had arrived, they immediately stopped what they were doing, welcomed everyone to the ship, and then untied the cable and set sail.

This time, Hong Tao did not go directly into the cabin, but after obtaining Ueno's permission, he stood on the helm tower and watched how he steered the boat next to Ueno. Being able to drive a speedboat on the sea, this is probably one of the dreams of all men, Hong Tao has loved boats since he was a child, but he has never had the opportunity to get up close, and now he can finally get over it.

Ueno sailed the boat with a strong momentum, standing straight in front of the steering wheel, and he didn't wear a hat on his head, but tied a white towel, looking a bit like a Japanese samurai. Hong Tao had already asked Zhou Xiaoli about this white towel, in fact, this is not a white towel, but a cloth belt, which is called "bowl roll" in Japan.

Don't underestimate this white cloth, it has very strict regulations in Japan, the size must be 120 cm * 5 cm, it is said to have originated in ancient times Japanese infantry, because their level is too low, even the helmet is not there, so this cloth strip is tied to distinguish between friend and foe.

There is also a theory that the townspeople of the Muro-shi period were usually craftsmen, and in order to prevent sweat from running down their heads, they twisted the towel into a rope and tied it to their heads, which slowly evolved into a culture where when you "concentrated" or "struggled", a bowl was tied to symbolize it.

As soon as the ship left the port, Ueno took a small notebook from his jacket pocket, flipped through a few pages, stopped, and began to type the numbers into a machine on the bridge. Hong Tao recognizes this machine, it is commonly known as an electronic map and GPS locator, professionally called maritime radar sonar navigator, the main role is to navigate, develop routes, ship identification and provide weather warning. Captain Ueno's input into the machine is supposed to be longitude and latitude punctuation, and it seems that his little notebook has recorded a lot of information about fishing spots in nearby waters.

Except for a small number of fish in the sea are resident types, most of the rest have migratory habits, they often follow the movement of ocean currents, winter and winter living areas, summer living areas, and some even have to travel thousands of kilometers every year to migrate.

Because the fish in the sea have this habit, if you want to fish in the sea, you must not only master the fishing skills, but also master a certain knowledge of marine fish, otherwise you are likely to return empty-handed. One of the biggest differences between sea fishing and freshwater fishing is that sea fishing requires people to find fish, while freshwater fishing is fish to find people.

Having an experienced captain is the first element of successful sea fishing, he will use his years of experience and the fish finder on the boat to help the angler quickly find the area where the fish are moving, at that time, as long as you are not a fool, more or less can catch fish, this is the time to compete in fishing skills, anglers with high fishing skills can often catch a lot, and anglers with insufficient fishing skills may not fish so often.

Due to the language barrier, Hong Tao could not pay more things about sea fishing to the captain of Ueno, so he could only watch how he steered the boat. However, Captain Ueno is also very face-saving, after Hong Tao stood for a while, he used gestures to invite Hong Tao to stand in front of the steering wheel and interview to pilot the ship, while he himself stared at Hong Tao on the side Don't make a mistake, the two of them used expressions and gestures, and played very well on the bridge.

After reducing the speed of the boat, Captain Ueno stared at the screen of the two fish finders on the operating table, the things displayed on them could basically be understood by Hong Tao, he had played this kind of thing in his previous life, but it was not as powerful and more professional than Ueno's fish finder.

THE FISH FINDER IS A BIT SIMILAR TO THE IPAD WE USE NOW, THE DISPLAY IS ALSO AN LCD SCREEN, THE BOTTOM IS A RED THICK LINE, WHERE IS THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA, THE BLUE-GREEN IN THE MIDDLE REPRESENTS THE SEA WATER, THERE ARE SOME BLACK DOTS IN THE MIDDLE THAT ARE FISH, AND THERE IS A BORDER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SCREEN, WHICH DISPLAYS THE CURRENT WATER DEPTH, WATER TEMPERATURE AND OTHER INFORMATION.

To put it bluntly, this fish finder is a small sonar with its transmitting and receiving terminals fixed to the bottom of the ship, and by emitting radio waves to the seabed and receiving echoes, it can detect the shape of the seabed in the target water area and the fish in the water that are large enough.

Although Hong Tao could understand the general parameters and diagrams, he could not tell what kind of fish those fish were, this was the gap between him and Captain Ueno, after a slow sail, Captain Ueno shouted at the boatman standing on the deck, and then the boatman operated the windlass to lower the anchor, and the Uenoya was fixed in this place.

When the ship slowed down, Muraichi, Yae and Zhou Xiaoli came out of the cabin, and at this time Zhou Xiaoli's seasickness symptoms basically disappeared, and I don't know if the medicine worked or the meal worked. When the boat dropped anchor, Muraichi and Yae began to pack up their fishing tackle, and Hong Tao quickly ran down from the bridge, picked up his fishing tackle, and followed the example of the two of them to make preparations before fishing.

"Let's fish the iron plate first, the fish layer is at a position of 90 meters to 130 meters, Mr. Muraichi said let you look at the mark on the line, and pull the pole up and down after reaching the appropriate depth...... "Zhou Xiaoli's translation is very qualified, fortunately, she is familiar with the terminology of fishing, otherwise it is difficult to accurately translate these words for a translator who does not know how to fish."

"Well, I see, it's not difficult." Hong Tao had played this fishing method in his previous life, and he tied the fishing rig with his impression and was about to tie a 100-gram iron plate bait.

"@%%¥@¥@" Captain Ueno didn't know when he got off the bridge, he was very dissatisfied with the iron plate in Hong Tao's hand, and even stopped Hong Tao's work with a gesture and shout, and then got into the cabin, and in a blink of an eye, he came out with a cardboard box.
