Chapter 233: It's Coming
When I woke up in the afternoon, the fishing boat was shaking a little.
It was overcast outside the window, and in a few moments, it was raining heavily in the sky.
He came and came into the living area with a loudspeaker and shouted, "There is a big wave ahead, don't go out in the cabin, pay attention to safety."
"How many levels?" Chen Yuan poked his head out.
"Level 4."
Grade 4 sea state, minor issues.
With the hull and power of a large fish, only sea conditions of class 7 or above require special attention.
It was raining heavily outside, the sea was undulating, and the boat was not particularly big, but the boat was heavy and the draft was deep. Now it's a slight shaking......
Chen Yuan went to the restaurant behind the cabin, leaned against the guardrail, watched the heavy rain outside, and lit a cigarette.
Zhou Sheng walked over and sat opposite Chen Yuan, took the cigarette in front of Chen Yuan, and just lit it, He Fei and Yang Xun also came over.
"This ship is good, if it was the Shinkai, it would be shaking a lot by now." Yang Xun said.
Zhou Sheng handed Yang Xun a cigarette and said with a smile: "Ocean-going ships, if the fourth-level sea conditions are particularly shaking, then they will have to go to the court to sue the shipyard."
The big fish was still driving at high speed, dragging a long trajectory on the undulating sea behind them.
"Have you noticed that we seem to be in trouble when we go to sea?" Zhou Sheng said.
Chen Yuan shrugged with a smile: "Today is not a situation, right?"
"Let's see."
"Don't crow's mouth."
Heavy rainfall in a small area, leaving the heavy rainfall area when it gets dark.
The sea surface is still visible to the naked eye, but the big fish are very stable.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng fed Lin Xinhai and them and came to the cab.
"What to eat?"
"Back to the pot, broccoli." Chen Yuan said and looked at the bow of the boat.
The current speed was 22 knots, and the bow of the ship hit the waves, and the white water splashed several meters high.
After eating, it was already dark, and Luo Laosi and Zhang Fulai came over to take over.
Chen Yuan went back to the bedroom, took out his satellite phone and dialed Yan Xiaoxi's number: "Hey, are you going back?"
"Nope." Yan Xiaoxi said, "Go back tomorrow morning, I'm cleaning up your house."
After chatting with Yan Xiaoxi for a long time, after hanging up the phone, Zhou Sheng snatched the phone and dialed Chen Xin's number: "Hey, Xinxin......
Chen Yuan took off his coat and lay on the bed.
The further south you go, the higher the temperature.
Early the next morning, the fishing boat was almost at the Bass Strait.
After crossing the Bass Strait and entering the open sea, the sea surface is okay today.
Breeze, small waves.
Chen Yuan began to organize the workers on the boat to learn the use of longline fishing equipment.
It took too much time to upgrade the fishing boat, and when the fishing boat was delivered, Chen Yuan and the others began to prepare to go to sea, and they didn't have time to get familiar with the equipment.
On board is a semi-automatic longline fishing equipment.
There is a machine for cutting fish pieces and making bait.
There is also a machine for bundling branch lines, and the branch line does not need to be manually tied to the trunk rope, but the branch line must be strung on the bracket.
Time flies.
A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the weather today is good, the sky is blue, and a few huge white clouds of the same kind float in the sky.
Bai Yun looked very low.
The sky is blue, and the sea is deep blue with black. The big fish drove over and left a pure white trail on the surface of the sea, and the water of this trail was tumbling, pure white, and some foam could be seen. ….
The sky is like a dome.
On the boat, the surface of the sea seems to be an arc that can be seen with the naked eye......
The further south you go, the warmer it gets.
At sea, though, the sun seems to be less intense.
The longliner deck has a very low side, and now it is dangerous to rush to the deck. These days, everyone is in the closed cabin.
Every morning we familiarize ourselves with the longline fishing equipment, and in the afternoon we sit together to tie the hooks.
Following the ocean current, the speed is basically 21-25 knots, which is very fast, and Kiribati is still three days away.
Kiribati is a very peculiar island nation.
The peculiarity is, first of all, Kiribati's land area, which is only 811 square kilometers. What kind of concept is this, just a little bigger than Singapore......
In the country, there are many prefectures with an area of more than 811 square kilometers.
Kiribati has a small land area, but the area of the exclusive maritime economic zone is not small, reaching 3.5 million square kilometers.
What is this concept, the land area of our country is about 9.6 million square kilometers.
The reason why Kiribati has such a large maritime economic exclusive zone is that it is a small archipelago with many islands.
The high seas of the Pacific Ocean are mostly in deep waters, and deep waters are not devoid of fish, but there are very few.
The most fish are in the waters around the islands, where the water is relatively shallow, and the sunlight can reach the bottom of the sea to breed seaweed, corals, and with nutrients, an ecological chain is formed, and schools of fish will gather over.
Don't think that the small island is small, and there are no fish in the surrounding waters.
A small island in the ocean also functions as a fish collector.
At the end of another day's work, there are probably more than 8,000 hooks tied up today, and the cabin where the hooks are hung is now full of hooks.
These hooks are tied with threads of varying lengths, with the longest line being the hook branch, which is about 5 meters long. I put the bite wire when I used it......
The shortest branch line is only about half a meter long, and it is a hook that specializes in catching schools of fish in the water.
The school of fish in the water corresponds to the school of driftwood fish.
A school of fish is a school of fish that has surfaced, and generally speaking, if you see a seagull rising and falling near the surface, it means that there is a school of fish in the water. Also, if the seagull floats the sponge, then there are schools of fish under the surface of the water......
It is best to fish in the starting water, there is a research surface, and the fasting rate of the fish in the water is extremely high.
Many people should have seen a group of people fishing for bonito on a boat, a hard rod, an empty hook dropped, and the fish will be heavy when it goes down, and so on and so forth...... The ones that are particularly good to catch are the schools of fish that rise from the water.
Catch a school of fish in the water with a short line. The long line mainly fishes for tuna, swordfish and other large fish.
There is also a type of hook that is a lure, which can be used to catch sturgeon, hairtail, and sea bream, grouper, and trash fish when working in shallow water.
Chen Yuan checked the fish hook cabin and was about to close the door, when Luo Laosi woke up and came over to take a look.
During this time, he has been working night shifts, and his mental state is not very good.
"Are you alright?" Chen Yuandao.
"It's fine. Maybe it's a bit of a cold from blowing the air conditioner." Luo Laosi said.
"Or you have a night's rest, and I'll be on duty for you." You go get some cold medicine and get a night's rest, and you think you'll be in Kiribati in two days."
"No, I don't." Luo Laosi waved his hand.
"Don't use anything, rest if you have a cold."
It's not a joke at sea, and getting sick isn't a joke. Especially now, they don't have a doctor on this ship.
If you meet with the fleet, there is no problem with some minor illnesses and pains, especially with the big nanny of the Dongjiang fishery, there is medical treatment on it, and there is no problem with some simple minor surgery.
