Chapter 293: Chasing Fish

Lin Xinhai and Gao He also heard Zhou Sheng's sigh.

They are all experienced fishermen, and you can imagine the picture at this time......

Large schools of predatory fish begin to prey, small schools of fish flee, and large fish pursue. Then the school of fish is scattered.

"Chen Yuan." Lin Xinhai shouted.

"Yes."

"Watch and see if you can catch a school of tuna." Lin Xinhai said.

Chen Yuan let out a 'hmm' and said, "With the speed of Dabai, it's not a big problem to bite the tuna fish." ”

When the hunt is over, some of the tuna will scatter. But there are still some tuna that still congregate......

Normally, longline fishing vessels do not chase after fish, but simply find areas with high fish densities. The fish chasing schools are mainly purse seine boats, trawlers.

Time passed little by little, and the congregated fish had completely dispersed.

Chen Yuan and they have been in the cockpit, and when the sun sets, Chen Yuan and they have not noticed.

By the time I came to my senses, it was already getting dark.

He Fei and Yang Xun didn't sleep well today, the sound of the big white engine was too noisy, and they couldn't sleep.

It was already dark, and He Fei and the others woke up and came out of the cabin, still looking like they hadn't woken up.

"No breaks?" He Fei took out a cigarette and handed it to Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng.

"Chasing fish. I guess I won't sleep tonight. Chen Yuan lit a cigarette and said.

A group has dispersed, Chen Yuan and they are looking for tuna.

Tuna disperse and gather, but not all tuna gather. Some of them formed groups of threes and threes, and in good conditions regrouped dozens or more than a hundred.

There are very few tuna here, at least more than a thousand, and if you are lucky, you can gather a large school of several hundred.

The western part of the Gilbert Islands is rich in resources, but a few hundred tuna are gathered to make a very large school of tuna. After all, it's not a school of migratory fish, and it's hard to have a school of oversized tuna.

Zhou Sheng opened the big white, Chen Yuan stared at the fish scout, the fan-shaped fish scout combined with the vertical fish scout, and after judging the type of fish, he kept an eye on the fish.

It was completely dark, and the tuna, which had been feasted upon, scattered in all directions.

Chen Yuan bit a school of thirty or forty tuna......

"This school of fish is too small, so I don't have to look for any big ones." Zhou Sheng said.

"Just follow from afar, don't find the big one, and lose the small one......"

This school of fish is not large, and in the future, other fish will either converge or merge into other large schools.

Now that the tuna are scattered, the sea is full of fish, and it is not easy to find a bigger school of tuna.

Again, if it's a purse seine, that's fine. A school of big fish is directly caught in one net.

Go down the net, directly explode the cabin, and make a fortune.

The current situation...... It's not bad.

Longline fishing boats are not afraid of the fish scattering, as long as there are fish, there is a chance to catch them.

It was nine o'clock in the evening, and Chen Yuan and the others were still chasing the fish. What used to be a school of 30 or 40 tuna has now increased by 60 or 70. And over time, this tuna school has grown.

"Fourth uncle." Chen Yuan shouted.

"Yes."

"Are you reeling in the rope?"

"It's being recycled." Luo Laosi said.

The original 150,000-meter rope was divided into two sections, one for Dabai and one for Takaga.

After collecting it all, I guess it's a little too much.

Chen Yuan: They are still chasing the fish, and they can't cook.

Yang Xun soaked instant noodles.

Chen Yuan found some biscuits and nuts, and dealt with them casually to fill his stomach.

After ten o'clock, Chen Yuan seemed to have increased the number of tuna fish they had bitten. When the fish are full, they form a circle under the water, spin in circles, and sleep.

Zhou Sheng also stopped the fishing boat and let Yang Xun and them carry it.

Chen Yuan washed rice and cooked rice, then took some bacon sausages out, washed them, and threw them directly into the rice cooker to cook together.

"There's nothing wrong with this school of fish." Zhou Shengdao.

"As long as the fish don't disperse, we will always follow, and there will be opportunities later." Chen Yuan was also very depressed.

In Chen Yuan's fish-looking career, such a large school of fish is also uncommon.

After a day of sailing, at this point, Chen Yuan was a little sleepy, and sat on the sofa listlessly.

"Chen Yuan, phone." He Fei shouted.

Chen Yuan went back to the cabin and got the phone: "Hey." ”

"What are you doing?" A call from Yan Xiaoxi.

"Chasing fish." Chen Yuan said, "Have you finished eating?" ”

"Just ate it." Yan Xiaoxi said: "We have an exam in a few days. ”

"Come on."

"I'll go to you after the exam."

"Okay." Chen Yuan said with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Chen Yuan hung up the phone and rang again: "Hey? ”

This call was made by Wang Peng, who said: "The frozen ship has departed, and it is estimated that it will arrive at your side in about ten days, how is the catch?" ”

"It's ok. The catch of the frozen ship, has it been processed? ”

"Not yet. We kept the better quality tuna for a while and sold it for free. The fish sold to the freezer has received 29.71 million yuan. The remaining fish, there should be eight or nine million. Wang Peng said with a smile.

Chen Yuan smiled and said 'um': "Ocean fishing, this is really profitable." ”

Wang Peng also smiled, he had already called Lin Xinhai.

The profits of distant-water fishing are indeed good, but the profits of other fishing vessels are not so high.

The main reason for this profit now is that the price of tuna has risen, and there is also their harvest. Yellowfin tuna, except for some underage second-class goods, second-class and third-class yellowfin tuna, the current packaging price has reached 85-90 yuan, 1 catty. If it was the first two years, it would be about sixty.

Inferior yellowfin tuna, that is, there is no adult and the quality is very poor, it is also ultra-low temperature, but the price is 20-70 yuan per catty.

This year, not only the price of tuna has risen, but the price of bonito has also risen a lot. This is mainly due to the fact that many sea areas have begun to implement protection systems and the area of prohibited fishing has expanded.

Tuna previously caught in the upwelling waters of the eastern southern seamount. The main catches are bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna and albacore. There is a lot of tuna, and the price is still expensive.

The three boats worked for almost half a month.

Gao He's ship received 5.37 million yuan, and Zhao Hai's ship received 4.56 million yuan. You must know that they sold to Chen Yuan, and the price was only 45% of the price of returning to China.

The value of the tuna caught by their two boats was about 20 million.

During that time, looking at it alone, Chen Yuan didn't catch many fish. But during the entire operation, in one area, the fishing boat did not go far. And the catch has been stable throughout this period. Now that I think about it, it was really busy and happy during that time.

Chen Yuan's tuna is much more expensive than the tuna caught by the big boat. The main reason is good freshness.

From capture to return, the maximum time is one month.

If it is a large tuna purse seiner, the tuna on it is cheaper, and that is because of the long time it has been caught. Although there is an ultra-low temperature, it is still slightly different.

Two boatloads of fish have been caught, and the loan of Fu'an Ocean Fishing Co., Ltd. will definitely have no problem to pay off after the fishing season is over. Now it's time to see how much money you have left after paying off the loan......

And the school of fish that was gathered just now, it's a pity to think about it. Managed to find a large school of fish......
