Chapter Ninety-Seven: Touching Scallops in the Sea
When Li Xiaofeng pulled the sixth hook, Liu Xuexia saw that the fishing line connected to the rope had pulled something off, and she couldn't help but be happy in her heart, knowing that this must be finally going to fish.
Sure enough, when Li Xiaofeng began to pull the fishing line along the rope, it didn't take long for a catty of perch to surface.
The perch that had just floated to the surface of the water struggled to wagging its tail, and wanted to swim towards the surface of the sea, Liu Xuexia, who was an experienced old fisherman, hurriedly stretched out the net in her hand, and quickly copied it.
Li Xiaofeng also skillfully untied the perch, threw it into the living water tank, and then continued to pull the rope connected to the fishing line.
Two more hooks were empty in a row, and then another sea bass of seven or eight taels was pulled up.
As soon as it surfaced, before it could struggle, Liu Xuexia had already copied it into the net with lightning speed.
However, this perch was too greedy to swallow the hook directly into the stomach, and Li Xiaofeng could only cut the fishing line with scissors, and then threw it into the foam box with ice cubes brought with the hook.
Because even if you put it in a living water tank and have a hook in its belly, it won't live long.
Then continue to pull, this is connected to the goods again.
And this perch also gave Liu Xuexia a not small surprise, this is a big perch weighing eight catties, and when it was about to pull it out of the water, it was still struggling violently at the bottom of the water.
When I pulled it up, I saw that if it hadn't been hung on its mouth, it would have really broken free.
Liu Xuexia also hurriedly copied it into the net as soon as it surfaced.
Such a large wild sea bass can be sold for four or five hundred per piece, and today's oil money must be enough.
This is simply a fish back to its roots, Li Xiaofeng thought beautifully in his heart.
Then, as if the floodgates had been opened, they began to fish one after another.
Except for a few stone nine gongs and two or three black sea bream, most of them are sea bass.
Liu Xuexia said with a smile: "This is really a perch nest!" ”
Li Yonglin, who was driving the boat, also nodded with deep sympathy.
Good guy, this basket of hooks, after a thousand hooks, at least more than 300 catties of perch have been harvested.
This made Liu Xuexia next to her and Li Yonglin, who was in charge of driving the boat, very happy.
It's really a bumper harvest!
After tidying up the boat a little, Li Yonglin drove the boat in the direction of the second basket of hooks.
However, the harvest of this second basket is much less than that of the first basket. By the time all the hooks were collected, Li Xiaofeng estimated that he had only harvested less than 100 catties of perch.
However, Li Yonglin and Liu Xuexia are also very satisfied.
You must know that although it is the opening of the sea, the price of seafood has dropped a lot, but you must know that most of the fish caught by their family are live sea bass.
The price of this live sea bass and chilled sea bass is two more prices.
Those big boats bring back a lot of chilled sea bass, but there are really not many live sea bass, and they are not willing to use the precious live water storage on the boat to raise sea bass, a common seafood with low prices.
The perch harvested in this basket of rows and hooks, large and small, should not be much of a problem to sell for forty yuan a catty, and this basket is also thousands of yuan income.
After harvesting, Li Yonglin drove the boat to the third basket of hooks.
When the boat drove not far from the third basket of hooks, Li Xiaofeng suddenly said to Li Yonglin and Liu Xuexia: "Parents, you can slowly collect the basket of hooks below, and I'll go to the sea to catch something!" ”
The two of them were also accustomed to their son's behavior, and Liu Xuexia, who was still immersed in the joy of harvest, replied with a smile: "Okay, you should pay more attention to safety when you go to the sea in a while!" ”
Li Xiaofeng nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Mom, I'm a senior diver now, and there won't be any danger." ”
In this way, Li Xiaofeng quickly changed his equipment, took a big net bag from the boat, and jumped into the water.
Li Yonglin and Liu Xuexia are not too worried about their son, first, Li Xiaofeng is indeed a senior diver, and second, because the place where the hook under the third basket is indeed not too far from here, and they can drive the boat back quickly at any time.
Li Xiaofeng, who entered the water, waved his hand to the two people on the fishing boat, and then activated the thruster and began to swim towards the bottom of the sea.
Because the sea water in this sea area is relatively clear, Li Xiaofeng's sight under the water is also very good.
In the process of diving, from time to time, some bold little fish could be seen passing by him, as if they were curious about him, the big guy who suddenly broke in.
After arriving at the bottom of the sea, because the seabed here is only forty or fifty meters deep from the sea surface, and the sea water is relatively clear, the light on the bottom of the sea is still relatively sufficient.
Li Xiaofeng also saw the situation on the seabed clearly.
The bottom of the sea is covered with yellow sand, dotted with shells, and occasionally small crabs can be seen crawling quickly on the sand.
Of course, Li Xiaofeng also saw that the goal of his trip was those golden scallops lying in the sand.
This kind of scallop is called the golden scallop on their side.
This type of scallop is also relatively common in the market.
However, most of the ones that can be seen in the market are artificially cultivated, and the price is not expensive, and the golden scallops that are cultivated for about a year are only a dozen yuan per catty.
However, wild ones are not very common, because these scallops are not native to their country, and it is said that they were first introduced from North Korea.
These wild golden scallops are basically from the farmed fishing rafts for various reasons, and then slowly reproduce.
Wild golden scallops are hard to buy, and the price of this wild and farmed is completely the same price, not to mention that this head is much larger than farmed.
Li Xiaofeng stretched out his hand and fished a golden scallop out of the sand, and then cleaned the sand from above, revealing its golden color, which was very beautiful under the sunlight cast on the water surface.
This golden scallop is bigger than Li Xiaofeng's palm, and it can be called a giant in the golden scallop, I don't know how many years it has grown at the bottom of the sea.
And in this large area of the seabed, there are many such large golden scallops.
Seeing them, Li Xiaofeng didn't feel as if he had seen gold, but felt as if he had seen roasted and steamed garlic vermicelli scallops, which made him full of motivation.
In this way, Li Xiaofeng began to get busy at the bottom of the sea.
He kept scooping up golden scallops that were bigger than a palm from the sand at the bottom of the sea, and he didn't move the small ones, so he let them continue to grow on the bottom of the sea.
After more than thirty or forty minutes of fishing, the net pocket he brought was full.
Li Xiaofeng, who has not yet enjoyed it, can only start the east propeller and sail like the sea.
Swimming to the surface, he discerned the direction and activated the thruster to head towards the fishing boat.
