Chapter 110: Schools of Tuna

Lin Xinhai and they talked about the walkie-talkie, and Chen Yuan could also hear it here.

Lin Xinhai's excited voice, Chen Yuan was speechless: "What are you excited about, it's been more than half a month since you came out, and you have made this net."

"Then you can't find the fish." Lin Xinhai said.

"Hurry up and catch the fish, it's easy to get tuna here during the day." Chen Yuan said.

"It's been very fast, it's too much fish." Lin Xinmin said.

I was busy until after ten o'clock, and all the fish were collected.

Squid, estimated at more than 20 tons.

There are 251 tuna, the smallest is thirty or forty catties, and the largest is seventy or eighty catties.

A number of trash fish were also recovered.

Chen Yuan went over to pick up Zhou Sheng and cook rice.

"How much is this net worth?" Zhou Sheng asked.

"I heard Lin Xinhai say just now that the value of this net should be more than two million." Chen Yuan said: "Rocket squid is expensive, and there are more than 200 tuna."

The price of the rocket squid that goes back directly at ultra-low temperature is also very good.

The workers on the boat had not slept for many nights, and the fishing boat was now stopped, and everyone was cooking and eating.

1,700 meters of fishing nets, taking the nets back and tidying them up, is also a lot of work.

Chen Yuanbai boiled two squids and slice them. This meat is white and tender, dipped in mustard, and when you take a bite, you will go straight to the head, and then there will be a faint sweet taste around the tip of the tongue.

After eating, the workers on the fishing boats, some went back to sleep.

Others had rested last night and were busy packing up their nets on the boat.

"Master." Chen Yuan drove the fishing boat over.

"What are you doing?" Lin Xinhai was saying that he was going back to sleep when he saw Chen Yuan's fishing boat approaching.

"Satellite phone."

Lin Xinhai took out the satellite phone with a smile: "When are you going to bring your girlfriend over to show us?"

"There's a chance." Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Can the hydraulic system of the crane be repaired?"

"I'm going to go back and tear it all down. Even if I can get it right, I don't have hydraulic fluid." Lin Xinhai said: "But it's not a big problem, you can still go down the net and collect the net."

Chen Yuan took the satellite phone and went to the bow of the boat, and called Yan Xiaoxi: "Hey."

"You've called me, when will you be back?" Yan Xiaoxi asked.

"It's going to take some time."

"How many fish have you caught?"

"The first net was laid today, and there were more than 20 tons of squid." Chen Yuan said with a smile.

"How much can you sell for more than 20 tons of squid?"

"The current price is about 80,000 yuan for 1 ton." Chen Yuandao.

The price of rocket squid is high, while some varieties of squid, the price is cheaper.

"More than twenty tons? That's almost two million?"

"Probably so. However, there is also a deduction for fuel and salary...... We'll find out how much we have left, we'll have to sell it."

"It's the National Day, will you come back for the National Day?"

"It should work. I'll call you ahead when I want to go back."

"Okay."

Some time ago, the weather was too bad, Chen Yuan never gave a chance to call Yan Xiaoxi, and today in this gap, a phone call lasted more than ten minutes.

I went back and went to sleep, and when I woke up, it was already afternoon.

Chen Yuan released the drone, and there were still a lot of biological signals received.

The Lixia went to the edge of the school of squid to see if there were any schools of tuna.

Zhou Sheng was smoking a cigarette outside.

"Did you find anything?" Chen Yuan asked.

"I don't know, I just woke up a while." Zhou Sheng threw a cigarette.

A large number of squid schools can easily attract schools of tuna.

"Uncle." Chen Yuan contacted Lin Xinmin, the captain of the Lixia.

"Roger."

"Did you find anything?"

"I found some signals of a big fish, but I don't know if it's or not

There aren't many tuna."

"Let's go out and have a look." Chen Yuan launched the fishing boat and opened the fish probe.

Not long after running away, a picture of a big fish came from the fish scout screen. Chen Yuan calculated a *** type, these fish are about 1.5 meters long and swim fast.

Chen Yuan picked up the walkie-talkie: "I found that the tuna is relatively large."

Chen Yuan's walkie-talkie, public channel.

"How big?" Lin Xinhai's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"About 1.5 meters." Chen Yuandao.

"It's not a lot."

"I saw three." Chen Yuan said, "It should be tuna, let's go outside again."

"Okay."

Leaving the squid's range, Chen Yuan took out the drone and released it. Flew for half an hour without major discoveries.

There are few large schools of tuna in the South China Sea, and there are more small groups.

Chen Yuan replaced the drone's battery, and the fishing boat changed its position again and continued to fly.

The sky was about to dark, and Lin Xinhai's voice came over the radio: "Did you find it?"

"Nope."

"Then I'll be back. There is a school of tuna gathered here, and there are quite a few of them. You come back and command the net."

"Okay."

Chen Yuan took the drone back, and Zhou Sheng launched a fishing boat to send Chen Yuan to the Lixia.

Chen Yuan first looked at the footage of the horizontal fish finder, determined the location and depth of the fish, and contacted Lin Xinhai: "Let's go back to the past first."

"Okay."

There are two schools of tuna here, the one found in the afternoon, which is small in number but large in size.

The group that is coming now is large in number, but it is not small.

The tuna of the two groups are seven or eight hundred meters apart.

Small individuals and large schools of tuna form a circle and are preying on squid. Large tuna are scattered......

"Zhou, He Fei, Yang Xun?" Chen Yuan shouted.

"Roger." Zhou Sheng.

"Received......" He Fei and Yang Xun.

"You go to the direction of three o'clock now, stop and don't move...... Chen Yuan was in the captain's room, and after seeing Zhou Sheng and them in place, he said again, "A little farther away."

"Okay?" Zhou Sheng launched the fishing boat and ran farther away and asked.

"Almost."

"We're almost in this position, aren't we?" The public channel of the walkie-talkie, Lin Xinhai said.

"Almost."

Chen Yuan: They now mainly gather large schools of small individual tuna, and now this distance is about 200 meters away from the school of fish. Stay away......

At this point, the fishing boat's side is kept windy and downstream.

When the two fishing boats are close to each other, pull up to the running outline and bracket of the purse seine net, move forward at full speed, drag the end of the net into the water, and quickly make a circular motion to release the net to surround the fish.

When the purse seine was carried out in general, Chen Yuan shouted, "Now catch the fish, you can catch as many as you can, hurry up."

"Okay."

Zhou Sheng took the lead in launching the fishing boat, and the throttle stick went directly to the top and drifted in place.

He Fei and Yang Xun each drove an assault boat, and they were also at full power. The three ships are fan-shaped, and they can make as much movement as they can......

The three of their fishing boats were on the outside of the big tuna, and when they suddenly moved, the frightened tuna fled in the direction of the purse seine net.

"The tuna is in the purse seine net." Lin Xinhai shouted excitedly.

"Outside the fence, wait for us to close the net." Chen Yuan was also excited: "Master, the winch is ready, the speed is a little faster when the bracket is closed, this fishing net is too shallow, it is easy to run fish from the bottom of the net."

"It's ready." Hayashi Shinkaido.

This time, the purse seine was more than twice as fast as last night, and when the fishing boats approached, the two fishing boats came closer together.

Chen Yuan went out of the captain's room and went to the new sea with the rope of running and bracketing.

The running outline is tied to the bow of the ship, and the bracket is connected to the winch machine. The brackets at both ends are folded together, and the machine is opened to quickly tighten the bottom net.

Zhou Sheng's fishing boat was in the purse seine net, and Chen Yuan was still holding a walkie-talkie in his hand: "Did you run fish from below?"

"The biggest tuna, the fish finder on my side is no longer visible, it is beyond the detection depth." Zhou Sheng said.

"Gan." Chen Yuan looked back at the winch: "Can this thing be faster?"

"It's already the fastest."

Chen Yuan calculated the time, and it was more than eight minutes before the two ends of the brackets were closed.

Chen Yuan's scalp was numb, really.

Lin Xinhai was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "The money is not enough. This winch was finally retrieved by Wang Peng."

"I don't have enough money to tell us, and a large winch doesn't cost much." Chen Yuan was distressed about the fish that had run away, and his tone was a little heavier. It's hard to find tuna here, and luck accounts for a lot of luck when you can find this location.

The purse seine must be fast when closing the bottom of the net, especially when catching tuna, otherwise the tuna will run away from the bottom of the net.

Don't think about it, the tuna must have run a little this time. Most of the fish that ran were big fish, and the fish of dozens of catties should not have run much.

But it was the big fish that ran away, and it hurt. Big fish are worth a lot of money.

"Don't talk about that, hurry up and catch the fish." Lin Xinhai looked at the picture of the fish scout, there were indeed running fish, and he ran a lot, and said with a smile: "If the harvest of this net is good, we will go back, upgrade the equipment and come out again."

Running fish, still running from the bottom of the net. This is really to blame Lin Xinhai himself, knowing that he came out to surround the tuna, he was an old captain, but he made such a low-level mistake. Not to mention that Chen Yuan was distressed and angry, Lin Xinhai himself was very distressed.

In the South China Sea, it's not easy to find relatively large tuna this season. Lin Xinhai was prepared to not find a school of tuna for a month......

Chen Yuan let out a "hmm" and said with a smile, "Is there ten tons of this net?"

"What do you want, Ten Tons? If you can have five tons, it will be capped."

The winch of the bracket is smaller, so it has to be replaced with a bigger one. Their one is only 270 meters deep, and the speed of tightening the brackets is slow, making it particularly easy to run fish.

Last night's tuna didn't run, that's because it was late at night last night, and there were a lot of squid in the net. Those tuna are probably still feasting, and they are surrounded by some reason.

Lin Xinhai can be said to have hollowed out his family for this trip, after all, no one wants to be in a situation in the process of fishing.

If you have money, good machinery and equipment, then you must be able to get on it. The problem is that there is no money.

Anyway, the brackets have been closed.

Two of the three netting machines were broken, and the remaining one was of little use.

The Xinhai began to adjust its position and was ready to start the net.
