Chapter 180: Small Fish

It crosses the continental shelf and enters the inner side of the South China Sea Basin.

It's past ten o'clock.

Chen Yuan stopped the engine, and Zhou Sheng washed rice and cooked rice.

Yang Xun took the beef out, and He Fei peeled the potatoes......

On the first day of coming out, everyone's energy was good, and when they had nothing to do at night, they made a delicious meal.

Lin Xinhai's fishing boat was running slowly, and it was estimated that they would not be able to meet them until tomorrow morning.

When the dish was cooked, Zhou Sheng brought beer, two bottles per person.

Everyone opened a bottle and held it up: "Good luck to get rich." Chen Yuan shouted.

"One hundred tons of nets." Zhou Sheng shouted.

Yang Xun also smiled and shouted, "Get rich."

"Make a fortune."

"Hahaha...... Cheers."

"Cheers."

"Cheers."

Potatoes roast beef, large pieces of beef cattle stewed in a casserole for nearly an hour, the entrance is rotten, and the beef is fragrant.

"Hopefully I'll find a huge school of tuna tomorrow." Zhou Sheng drained half a bottle of beer in one gulp and said.

"Tomorrow the sea will be full of tuna."

Drank wine and ate.

The place chosen by Chen Yuan is far away from the fairway, and the fishing boat is lit up. Yang Xun and they are on night duty......

Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng went back to the cabin and woke up to dawn.

After washing up, Yang Xun went out to fish, and it was also a good Yaxing.

"Did you catch a fish?"

"Got a few." Yang Xun said, "I caught a few hairtail fish last night."

"Fresh hairtail is good." Zhou Shengdao.

The morning was foggy and hazy.

Cooking the pan-fried hairtail fish, while eating, Lin Xinhai's voice came over the radio: "Where are you, why didn't I see your location."

Chen Yuan reported the location again, and stopped at sea for a night without power, and the position was deviated, but the distance was not very far.

It's foggy today, otherwise you can see Chen Yuan's location.

After eating, Chen Yuan saw Lin Xinhai and their boat, interspersed out of the mist.

Waiting for them to come, Zhou Sheng launched the fishing boat, and Chen Yuan climbed onto the Xinhai, looked at the current map of the South China Sea basin, and planned a route to find fish.

Luo Laosi was also on the boat, looking at the route planned by Chen Yuan, a little puzzled: "Why don't you go to the big ocean current route?"

"We all know that there are many fish on the current routes, and there are also many boats on the main current routes." Chen Yuan said.

Luo Laosi nodded.

"Chen Yuan has a remote sensing fish scout, and the range of finding fish can be pulled to a large extent, so don't worry, do it slowly." Lin Xinhai took out a cigarette and handed one to Luo Laosi and Chen Yuan.

After planning the route, I waited for the workers on the boat to have breakfast, and the fog had lifted, so I set off to look for fish.

The South China Sea Basin is located in the south of GD Province and Hainan Island, bounded by Kalimantan Island in the south, the Philippine Islands in the east, and the Indochina Peninsula in the west.

The center of the basin is the abyssal plain, slightly diamond-shaped, the long axis extends in the northeast-southwest direction, about 1500 kilometers long, the average water depth is about 4000 meters, the shallower in the north is 3400 meters, the water depth in the south is 4200 meters, the deepest part is 4577 meters, and there are a few ridges, seamounts and volcanic cones of different heights stand on the plain at the bottom of the basin.

The water here is deep blue.

Behind the fishing boat was a white trail, tumbling out of a brilliant blue hue.

Far away from the fishing boat, Chen Yuan released the drone and flew around, with only a few biological signals. Retract the drone and continue the search.

The job of finding fish is to endure loneliness, especially tuna.

A morning passed quickly.

In the afternoon, the search continued.

Zhou Sheng sat in the cab and Luo Laosi was blowing cowhides, Chen Yuan was outside, about once an hour or so, he put a drone, and then he wanted to observe the sky to see if there were any birds.

The sea surface of the South China Sea basin is still very wide, and if you see a flock of birds, you can be idle

If it's okay, you can catch up.

For five days in a row, nothing was found.

It was not found that it was found that a particularly small school of fish was found during the period, and there was no value in the net.

When the water is deeper, there are fewer fish.

The schools of fish that are occasionally found are also very small.

"My fishing boat came out with me, isn't there some redundancy?" Luo Laosi passed through the wireless channel.

"Take your time, you can find the fish." Chen Yuan said, "I should be able to find the fish tomorrow."

"How do you know?"

"Tomorrow I'm going to the place where the little ocean currents meet." Chen Yuan said.

At the confluence of ocean currents, it is easy to gather fish. Especially at sea......

In the past few days, Chen Yuan and the others have only seen one fishing boat here, and it is still a fishing boat on the way.

Entering the South China Sea basin, there are few fish. Except for a few fishing boats that catch deep-sea fish, few fishing boats come to these places. However, fishing for deep-sea fish is usually done in some fixed location.

The more nutrients, the more fish.

Deep-sea fish are usually fished on top of seamounts.

At night, looking forward to a good harvest tomorrow, the marine weather sent a warning, and there will be a level 7 sea state in some areas of the South China Sea. The main area is in Nansha and Zhongsha, and there will be 6-9 meters of rough waves at that time. There will also be huge waves on this side of the South China Sea Basin......

When Luo Laosi received the warning, he spit out two words: Ma De.

Chen Yuan and the others also received an early warning, and hurriedly contacted Lin Xinhai: "Master, level 7 warning, you predict when to come."

"The weather is forming, two or three days later, very early. Set off overnight, go to the confluence of the currents, and if there are no fish, I will go to Sanya tomorrow to take shelter from the wind." Hayashi Shinkaido.

"Okay." Luo Laosi replied, "Let's go now."

"Let's go."

Chen Yuan didn't sleep anymore, and launched the fishing boat to rush over first.

The distance was not very far, more than four hours, that is, at three o'clock in the morning. Chen Yuan released the drone, only glanced at it, and asked Zhou Sheng to call Lin Xinhai.

"Master, where are you?"

"Twenty nautical miles to go."

"Hurry up." Zhou Sheng shouted.

"There are not many fish."

"There are fish. There should be quite a few of them." Zhou Sheng looked at the remote sensing fish exploration screen and said.

"It's okay." Chen Yuan went over and took over the driver's seat and turned on the vertical fishing scout of the fishing boat: "There are tuna."

As soon as the words fell, Luo Lao Si smiled and said, "It's not much."

"Not very much. But the tuna looks big and meaty."

Lin Xinhai and the others rushed over at full speed, and after five o'clock, the sky was already bright.

There are a lot of fish in this area, but they are somewhat scattered.

Lin Xinhai saw a group of relatively large fish, estimated that there were only about 20 of them, and hurried over to cooperate with Luo Laosi to quickly get off the net.

They worked together perfectly, and soon laid down the net and tightened the brackets.

Luo Laosi drove the fishing boat away, and Chen Yuan and the others went over to cooperate and laid another net.

Now I have nothing to do at this time, and I can catch as much as I can catch in the next net.

There are still fish in this area, and the convergence of ocean currents brings nutrients, and schools of fish naturally gather together.

However, compared with Nansha, it is far behind.
