Li Xiaofeng's fishing boat uses single-trawl fishing.

There is also a double trawl with two fishing boats pulling a trawl, which can open the net at a larger angle and cover a wider area.

The fishing boat drove forward for more than 20 minutes, and Li Xiaofeng was relieved to see that most of his target fish were pulled away by trawls on the bottom of the sea.

Although a small number of fish still escaped the trawl range, he had no intention of going back to pull a few more nets, after all, he could not always try to catch all the fish.

Li Xiaofeng, who let go of his heart, said to Li Yonglin with a smile: "Dad, you rest for a while, and I will drive the boat." You can find Uncle San and Uncle Zhang and they go to the smoking area on the deck, go for a cigarette, chat, and we will close the net in about two hours. ”

Li Yonglin smiled and nodded, he could still feel his son's heart taking care of him.

In this way, the fishing boat was at sea, dragging the trawl for about two hours. In the process, Li Xiaofeng also changed his course slightly many times.

Seeing that the fishing boat was about to start the net, Li Yonglin had already returned from smoking on the deck and replaced Li Xiaofeng.

Seeing that the fish in front of him were swept into the net by the trawl, Li Xiaofeng turned on the radio again and said: "Attention everyone on the fishing boat, start netting now!" ”

Li Yongmin, who received the order, immediately started the net winder, and the net mouth began to tighten little by little under the action of pulling the rope.

This is undoubtedly the most tense and exciting time on the fishing boat.

The harvest that everyone has been busy with for so long will be revealed at this moment.

And this is like opening a blind box, before the fishing net is not lifted, except for Li Xiaofeng, no one knows what the harvest is.

Li Xiaofeng glanced at the map, and then at his father, who was driving the boat, but was a little distracted, and looked behind him frequently, and said with a smile: "Dad, you adjust the fishing boat to autopilot mode, and we will also go to the deck to see how the harvest is today!" ”

He waited for his son's words!

So hearing this, Li Yonglin hurriedly adjusted the fishing boat to the automatic driving mode, and then even Li Xiaofeng next to him didn't wait, walked out of the wheelhouse quickly, and walked towards the deck behind the fishing boat, looking impatient.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and shook his head, this trawl will be a little bit away from being completely towed on the boat, this is too anxious.

He looked at the cockpit and saw that there was nothing wrong, so he followed his father and slowly walked off the back of the fishing boat.

When he reached the deck, he saw that all but a few crew members who were in charge of sorting in the cabin had come to the back of the fishing boat, waiting to look at the nets.

Their fishing boat is a double-decker trawler with an improvised sorting line in the hold.

And the fish they catch is not dumped directly on the deck, but into a row of chutes at the stern of the fishing boat, and then the catch flows into the cabin through the chute, and then through the assembly line, it is transported to the sorting area of the fishing boat.

There are five crew members down there who will be in charge of sorting, and of course most of the people on deck will go down to help when the nets are fully stacked.

After all, they are not the kind of large distant-water fishing vessels that are very large and have a very clear division of labor.

When Li Xiaofeng came to the stern of the fishing boat, Li Yonglin, Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun were all standing here anxiously, waiting anxiously for the fishing net to be pulled up, so as to see how the harvest was going for the first time.

They are now very apprehensive in their hearts, after all, this is the first net after buying a fishing boat, if this net is good, it is really a good start, and they will be more confident in their original choice.

The trawl under the sea surface is slowly retracted under the tension of the net winder, and then it is pulled into the shape of a cylinder under the action of the net winder, and finally it is pulled out of the water little by little.

Among the cylindrical nets, the most eye-catching thing is the touch of golden yellow, and after Li Xiaoliang next to him saw it, he happily shouted "Big yellow croaker, cucumber fish!" ”

Hearing this, Li Yongmin and Zhang Jianjun almost jumped up.

With so many big yellow croaker, it's not like you can get rich with one net, you can buy the fishing boat back with this net!

Li Yonglin next to him was also very excited at first, but when he saw the fish in the fishing net clearly, he knew that this was not a big yellow croaker, although the two were similar in appearance and both were golden yellow.

Many people can't tell the difference, otherwise this fish would not have a "fake yellow croaker" name.

Slowly, Li Yongmin also saw that something was wrong, after all, he and Li Xiaofeng's family had also caught a big yellow croaker before.

Li Yongmin hesitated for a moment, and said to Li Yonglin: "Second brother, this is not a big yellow croaker, it's Chunzi, right?" ”

Li Yonglin listened to it and said with a smile: "That's right, this is Chunzi fish, Xiaoliang is mistaken, but the price of this fish is okay." ”

Spring fish, also known as yellow croaker, belongs to the fish that live in warm seas, middle and lower waters. It is distributed in the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea and the South China Sea in China.

Although it is widely distributed, it is also known as "fake yellow croaker", but it does not mean that it is really common and the price is low!

Wild spring seeds, under a catty, can be sold for eighty yuan a catty. For more than one catty, the retail price on their side has reached about 15 catties.

Li Yongmin also knew the price of Chunzi, and he stammered: "Second brother, I'm afraid there are several tons of Chunzi in this net, right?" ”

Li Xiaofeng said with a smile next to him: "Third uncle, I estimate that there should be three or four tons of this net!" ”

"That's not like these Haruki alone can sell for hundreds of thousands! And there are a lot of other fish in this net! Li Yongmin said excitedly.

To tell the truth, when did his previous small fishing boat catch so many valuable fish in one net!

Zhang Jianjun next to him was the same, and he couldn't help the joy in his heart.

Compared with them, although Li Yonglin was also very happy in his heart, he looked at them with a fixed face on the surface and said: "I really thought it was cucumber fish, Bai was happy." Isn't it Haruko, why are you so excited? ”

The two of them looked at Brother Lin, who was pretending to be B in front of them, speechlessly, and walked away silently, for fear of being criticized by Lei.

After all the fish in the nets were poured into the chute, Li Yonglin returned to the cab.

Li Xiaofeng and Zhang Jianjun came to the cabin with several crew members to assist in sorting.

Li Yongmin and two crew members sorted the fishing nets on the deck.

Everyone worked together to sort the fish quickly.

Like Haruko, those who don't live long out of the water are stacked, put in fish baskets, and finally put in the freezer cabin, and some of the more vigorous ones are put in the living water tank of the fishing boat. For example, crabs are tied up and put in, and finally oxygenated.

In addition to about seven or eight thousand catties of spring fish, there are also more than 1,000 catties of sea bass, several hundred catties of silver pomfret, two or three hundred catties of various crabs, and several hundred catties of various small miscellaneous fish.

Li Xiaofeng roughly estimated that this net should be sold for eight or nine hundred thousand.

It's a pity that I didn't catch any particularly valuable fish.

However, the employees on the fishing boat are already very happy, this is a net of eight or nine hundred thousand!
