Chapter 187: The Road Meets a School of Fish Moving South
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was slightly bright, Li Xiaofeng was woken up by the alarm clock, and after being in bed for a while, he got up and shouted to the crew.
Not finished, this time they were in a hurry to catch the cod fish.
After washing up and having a simple breakfast, Li Xiaofeng drove the fishing boat and continued to set off north.
After a while, Han Minghua, who had finished breakfast, also came to the cockpit.
Li Xiaofeng saw him coming over and said with a smile: "How is it, you were tired last night, right?" ”
Han Minghua raised his sore arm and said a little depressedly: "Fifth brother, I am in pain everywhere now!" I didn't expect that I hadn't done manual work for only a few years, and now everyone is like this! ”
Hearing his words, Li Xiaofeng laughed and said: "This is not entirely the reason for your physical weakness, everyone has a process of adaptation when they first get on the fishing boat." Just get through the first few days! ”
The two of them were chatting, and at this time, Li Yonglin, Zhang Jianjun and Li Yongmin, who had finished breakfast, also walked in.
Li Xiaofeng taught Han Minghua to drive the boat, while looking for fish on the map, and listened to the chat of the three old fishermen when he was fine, and the time passed quickly.
In this way, more than an hour passed quickly, and Li Xiaofeng finally saw the fish he was looking for on the map.
But today this school of fish is a bit special.
First of all, this school of fish is very large, and since Li Xiaofeng found them, the fishing boat has been sailing forward for almost twenty minutes, but Li Xiaofeng still has not found where the end of the school of fish is.
Secondly, this school of fish is not made up of any single fish, but is made up of many fish that are densely mixed together, and it is impossible to tell how many species of fish there are.
On the map, you can barely tell that the front of the school of fish seems to be a dense school of small fish such as sardines and anchovies, followed by a variety of ferocious carnivorous fish.
And it's not just these fish that are huge, there are countless pike crabs behind the fish that are preying on these lone small fish.
Even the big lobsters, which are rarely seen in ordinary times, can be seen everywhere at the moment, following the movement of the fish and prey.
Li Xiaofeng felt that this should be a school of fish migrating south with the ocean current!
Who would have thought that under the surface of the calm sea, there would be such a large school of fish!
Seeing such a huge school of fish, Rao is Li Xiaofeng can be regarded as well-informed, and his heart can't help but tremble with excitement at this moment. It's a pity that he has no way to tell others about his excitement for the time being.
He tried his best to calm down, and said to Li Yongmin, who was still chatting: "Third uncle, you inform the crew to prepare, and we will be ready to go to the net in half an hour!" ”
Hearing his words, several people didn't care about continuing to chat, and they all followed Li Yongmin to the deck to prepare to go to the net. Han Minghua also walked out, he didn't want to make trouble for the fifth brother, what special things to do here, let others gossip.
Half an hour passed in a flash, and after receiving Li Xiaofeng's notice, Li Yongmin and his crew smoothly went down the fishing net into the sea.
And according to Li Xiaofeng's requirements, this net is relatively deep.
In this way, Li Xiaofeng drove the fishing boat and greeted the fish in the direction where the fish were coming from.
Li Xiaofeng stared at the map while driving the boat, watching the fish on the map be torn open by the large trawl on the bottom of the sea.
It's just that this gap is just a drop in the bucket compared to the huge school of fish on the bottom of the sea.
The fishing boat was advancing, and seeing that the trawl was smoothly lowered into the water, Li Yonglin and Zhang Jianjun returned to the cockpit from outside with a smile.
Seeing that the two of them were back, Li Xiaofeng smiled and said to them: "Dad, Uncle Zhang, we are probably busy today!" ”
Hearing this, the two of them looked at him a little puzzled.
Li Xiaofeng smiled and pointed to the sonar and fish finder next to him, at this time the fishing boat was already above the fish, and the screen of the fish finder clearly displayed the information of the fish.
The two of them followed the direction of his finger, and they also saw the school of fish on the screen whose length was temporarily invisible, and the thickness was twenty or thirty meters, and they couldn't help but be stunned for an instant.
Zhang Jianjun pointed at the screen with a trembling finger and asked, "Xiaofeng, don't tell me that all that you can't see the boundary here are fish!" ”
After Li Yonglin next to him watched the screen, he also waited expectantly for his son to answer.
Li Xiaofeng said with a smile: "Dad, Uncle Zhang, we should have encountered a school of fish moving south." This school of fish is quite large at the moment, but the main reason why we can't see the boundary now is that the range of our sonar detection is too close. But with all the things on the screen, it should be enough for us to be busy today! ”
After hearing his affirmative reply, both of them were so excited that they almost jumped.
Both of them are veteran fishermen with decades of fishing experience, but they have never seen a school of fish as large. They had only heard from some of the older generation of fishermen that the fishery resources were much more abundant than they are now.
Li Xiaofeng waited for them to calm down, and said with a smile: "Dad, Uncle Zhang, I estimate that the fishing boat will drag forward for another twenty or thirty minutes, and we will be able to collect the net." Otherwise, if the net really explodes, it will be troublesome if you can't pull it up! ”
Fishermen can be said to really love and hate the net, the net shows that there are many fish caught in this net, but no matter how many fish there are, the trawl net can't pull the boat is useless!
At this time, I had to find a way to release some of the fish from the trawl.
After listening to Li Xiaofeng's words, Zhang Jianjun said happily: "Okay, I'll go out immediately and inform Yongmin to prepare to close the net!" ”
"Uncle Zhang, you are also busy today, this opportunity is so rare today, after we pull up this net, we will definitely follow the second net, and maybe there will be a third net, a fourth net, Uncle Zhang, you also have to be prepared!" Li Xiaofeng continued to say with a smile.
"What a rare opportunity! Take advantage of this opportunity to place as many nets as you can, and I will definitely be able to withstand it! If we are fishermen, can we still be afraid of catching too many fish? Zhang Jianjun said arrogantly.
Hearing his words, Li Xiaofeng and Li Yongmin both laughed, yes, I only heard that fishermen are afraid of not being able to catch fish, but how can I hear that fishermen are afraid of catching more fish.
The three of them were talking, and Li Yongmin happened to push the door in at this time.
Seeing the happy looks of the three people, he asked a little strangely: "What kind of happy event have you encountered, are you all happy to be like this?" ”
Zhang Jianjun said with a smile: "I was just about to go to you!" You come over here and take a look. ”
