Chapter 296: Mad Dog Wave

It is said that the crew's activities of catching Ganoderma lucidum crabs on the desert island were quite smooth at first.

As night fell, a large number of Ganoderma lucidum crabs began to crawl out of various hidden corners of the island to feed, seeing this scene, the crew also happily began to catch them as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and it didn't take long for them to harvest a lot.

It's just that with the passage of time, the area of this small island is not big after all, and thirty or forty people catch it on this small island together, which also makes it more difficult to catch Ganoderma lucidum crabs in the future.

So when it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening, Li Xiaofeng saw this situation and decisively stopped everyone's crab fishing activities tonight.

Because after all, this is just an opportunity for him to make some extra money, if there are more Ganoderma lucidum crabs, it would be good to say, but now the Ganoderma lucidum crabs on the island have been almost caught by everyone, but it can't affect the fishing boat's itinerary the next day because of the capture of the remaining Lingzhi crabs.

But even so, it may be because the Ganoderma lucidum crabs on this island have not been caught by others before, so everyone's harvest is still very good, thirty or forty people, it took half of the night to catch more than 1,000 catties of Ganoderma lucidum crabs, and the average is that each person has thirty or forty catties, which is five or six hundred yuan, so everyone is still quite satisfied.

Everyone is satisfied, of course Li Xiaofeng is even more satisfied, although he paid more than 100,000 yuan for this, but his income is several times that of what he paid, so this can be regarded as a great joy for everyone.

After resting in the second half of the night, as soon as it was dawn the next morning, Li Xiaofeng and his party drove the fishing boat out of this deserted island in the face of the rising sun, and drove quickly towards the sea area where the "Harvest" fishing boat was located.

Standing at the bow of the boat, facing the rising sun, breathing in the fresh air on the sea, Li Xiaofeng felt that the whole person was a lot more energetic.

However, the fishing boat soon sailed to the area where the storm occurred yesterday, and although the storm here has subsided, the wind and waves in this area are still not small.

The fishing boats swayed in the sea with the wind and waves, and on the surface it was much better than yesterday's situation, as if this was only the aftermath of yesterday's storm.

However, when Li Xiaofeng saw the huge waves that sometimes suddenly occurred on the sea surface without warning, his face was not very good-looking, and he even hurriedly asked Meng Guangming to use the radio to remind the crew on the deck to stay away from the side of the ship and pay more attention to their own safety.

The reason why he paid so much attention was because he saw a huge wave that suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea without warning just now, because this kind of huge wave has a special name called the mad dog wave!

The Mad Dog Wave, also known as the Killer Wave, is a powerful wave that has no warning.

The main reason for the mad dog wave is that when there is a storm on the surface of the sea, the sea also absorbs energy.

When the storm passes, the surface of the sea returns to calm, but the energy absorbed by the sea is still there, and it will eventually be released in some form.

This form of release is the huge wave on the surface of the sea that often produces without warning, and this wave is called the mad dog wave, also known as the swell.

Mad dog waves not only travel long distances and travel fast, but also have great power, plus it often comes without warning, so it often brings huge losses to ships sailing on the sea!

In March 2010, the "Majestic Louis" cruise ship was on its way from Spain to Italy when it encountered such waves without warning, resulting in the death of two passengers on the cruise ship and the injury of more than a dozen tourists. Then the wave disappeared as it did when it suddenly appeared, and came and went without a trace.

Later, scientists confirmed that the cruise ship was attacked by a mad dog wave! And such examples can actually be said to be countless at sea, so Li Xiaofeng suddenly felt nervous.

It's just that although mad dog waves have been found in this sea area now, Li Xiaofeng is reluctant to leave this sea area immediately, because when he observes the map of this sea area, he also has other discoveries.

That is, he found that there were obviously many more fish in the pelagic waters of this sea than usual, and many of them were reef fish that usually lived in coral thickets, and these fish usually could not be caught with trawls.

It is not known whether these fish were driven out of the coral thicket by yesterday's storm or by today's mad dog waves.

Looking at the groups of colorful groupers, Tsing Yi, sea bream, and even stone mussels, these are all valuable goods, and some can even be sold for thousands of yuan a catty, how could Li Xiaofeng be willing to leave now.

So now he can only warn the crew to be aware of the danger of mad dog waves, and on the other hand, he is also looking for opportunities for fishing boats to catch nets.

When a huge wave passed without warning, Li Xiaofeng hurriedly informed Li Xiaoliang to organize people to lower the trawl into the sea, and then he personally drove the fishing boat and began to pass through the undulating sea.

The boat then resembles a nimble petrel, dragging its net swiftly through the waves.

Meng Guangming watched him drive the fishing boat with a heavy weight, and he had to admire Li Xiaofeng's superb skills in driving the fishing boat.

Then the fishing boat drove in this sea area for more than two hours, and Li Xiaofeng drove the fishing boat out of the wind and wave area with a little reluctance.

After sailing out of this wind and wave area, Li Xiaofeng also handed over the fishing boat to Meng Guangming to drive again, and then he went to the deck to watch Li Xiaoliang arrange for someone to collect the net.

Although the trawl has not yet surfaced, from the tightness of the rope attached to the trawl, it is clear that this net must have gained a lot.

Sure enough, when the trawler began to surface with the fishing nets in tow, almost all the crew members on the deck couldn't help cheering, because the round trawls that surfaced to the surface had already shown that they had another good harvest.

But when the trawl was finally lifted to the deck, they realized that they had just underestimated the net, which was not only in quantity, but also in quality!

Through the thick mesh, you can see the colorful marine fish in the trawl net, including such valuable catches as oriental grouper, mouse grouper, stonefish, stone mussel and Tsing Yi.

This also made Han Minghua and Li Xiaoliang, who were watching from the side, happy on their faces, speaking of which, their fishing boats had not had such a rich harvest for a few days.

The two of them also immediately began to direct the crew to get busy, in Li Xiaoliang's words, take advantage of the good luck now, hurry back and pull another net!
