Ye Yaodong drove the boat towards the sea in the distance, and when he first set off, there were all kinds of headlights flashing on the sea, and when he drove farther, there would be less, and each ship drove towards the sea area that they were familiar with.

Father Ye also took advantage of the time when the boat was running to start chopping bait, hanging bait, all kinds of small fish, as well as small shrimp, and also small tubes, Ah Cai just sent 5 dead small moray eels to him as bait, and they were also cut by Father Ye and hung up.

The boat drove for more than an hour, and the bait was not yet hanged, and there were too many hooks, and it took time to cut and hang them.

Ye Yaodong deliberately changed a new fishing spot today, away from the sea area where he worked yesterday.

He looked intently ahead, controlling the direction of travel, and in order to avoid not seeing clearly in the dark and causing the hull to hit the rocks, his headlamp shone on the left and right from time to time on the sea level.

At this moment, he saw a large number of seabirds appear in his field of vision on the sea in front of him, obscuring the sky and the sun, and almost the entire coastline was full of seabirds, and there were countless feelings.

All fishermen know that there are often schools of fish in places where a large number of seabirds gather, and before the sea in front of them appears in the field of vision, there are so many seabirds flying in the air continuously, and the schools of fish in the sea are definitely not small.

He stared at the surface of the sea with wide eyes in surprise, and increased his horsepower, only to see more and more seabirds in his field of vision.

The coastline was getting closer and closer, and he could clearly see that the sea in the distance, barely illuminated by the headlamp, had turned up countless white foams, and the seabirds on the sea surface were constantly swooping towards the sea surface one after another.

He quickly slowed the boat down again, let it go slowly, and then looked closely, and made sure that there were indeed a lot of fish churning there in the sea, and his heart was pounding.

"Dad, you put down your work first and come over and have a look."

Father Ye kept his head down to cut the fish and hang the bait, and he didn't pay attention to the sea, but he just felt that the speed of the boat had just slowed down, and he thought that the third child was going to hook here.

At this time, I heard his cautious call, and I thought that something had happened, so I hurriedly ran over.

"What's wrong? What happened...... Finish... Father Ye put down the work he was doing, and as soon as he looked up and stood up, he saw a large number ......of white seabirds gathered on the sea in the distance, which was particularly conspicuous in the dark night.

His voice suddenly stopped dumb, and he hurriedly ran to the bow of the boat, and carefully shone his headlamp into the distance.

I saw a large number of seabirds gathered in the air ahead, and the water on the sea surface was rolling violently, and there was not only one area, but the entire continuous coastline was tumbling and splashing, and the area was not small.

Father Ye said in surprise: "There are schools of fish under the sea surface in front of us, so there are so many seabirds gathered in mid-air, looking at the distribution of seabirds, the schools of fish should be several kilometers long, I don't know how to do it under the seabed?" It's a big school of fish. ”

"I just saw a large number of seabirds on the coastline in the distance, and I was startled, so I slowed down and called you."

"Take a closer look!"

Ye Yaodong nodded excitedly.

With such a large school of fish and such a long coastline, you don't have to do anything to do today, so you can cast a net behind it?

I don't know what kind of fish it is?

He got the horsepower up again.

When you get up close, the sea is even more spectacular!

"It turned out to be a school of sardines!"

"They're migrating from north to south!" Ye Yaodong said affirmatively at a glance.

Sardines migrate en masse every autumn and winter, and if you let the fishing boats at sea encounter it is no less than hitting the jackpot!

They really hit the jackpot today.

Father Ye was a little excited, the scale of this sardine migration is amazing, I can't look carefully in the dark, but the visual inspection is several kilometers long and 1 kilometer wide, and I don't know the situation on the bottom of the sea.

"Dongzi, get closer."

"Okay."

Ye Yaodong had a big smile on his face, the sardine school is known as the "largest fish school on the earth", but he knows that every time the sardine school migrates, the data is no less than billions, and it is all up to luck whether he meets it or not.

Today, the fishing boats operating in this area are going to make a fortune.

The boat continued to move forward, and the waves rolled further and further, and the hull of the boat swayed violently, all because of the fish.

After traveling almost a distance, Ye Yaodong stopped and said excitedly: "It's a sardine storm!" There is no end to the school of sardines! ”

Father Ye looked at the fish in front of him with bright eyes, his eyes didn't blink, and he said with spittle: "Fish, fish." ”

"Riding a horse, fortunately, Lao Tzu borrowed a hand to throw the net yesterday, otherwise he would have slapped his thigh and cried to death!"

"The bait for longline fishing is almost hanging, and it can't be wasted, and I'll release the longline later, and you can cast the net, such a large school of sardines is migrating, there must be big fish preying."

"There must be big fish, but they won't bite the hook, these sardines are ready-made live bait, let's put the hook and catch the small fish that can't eat sardines underneath."

"Well, that's right."

Ye Yaodong quickly ran to the cabin to throw the net with his hands, tidying up as he walked, and the rickety hull did not affect his efficiency at all.

Sardines are warm-water fish in the coastal waters, and they are phototaxis, and a large number of sardines gather at once in the area illuminated by the headlamp.

As soon as he tidied up the hand-thrown net, he used the light of the headlamp to scatter it towards the distant sea, and the hand-thrown net was stretched to the maximum in his hand, and a large number of fish were caught at once, and he did not need to stay, he could directly pull it up.

The heavy fishing net made the muscles of his arms bulge, and the green tendons on his temples burst out, and Father Ye hurriedly helped pull it together.

The weight of this net is at least 200 catties to lay the base, and it is even more difficult to pull in the water, at this moment Ye Yaodong thought about how good it would be if there was a small net machine? That would be more efficient.

This sardine is cheap, the price is about 9 to 1 cent, the size is not big, about 14 to 25 cm long, the body is very flat, light weight, six or seven or eight are enough for a catty, but it can't stand it at this time!

At this time, billions of sardines in the sea are caught casually, so it is called a jackpot!

It took a lot of effort for the father and son to pull the net of sardines onto the boat, and they threw it directly on the deck.

Ye Yaodong untied the net, and a large number of slender and flat silver fish poured out of the net directly, covering the small half of the deck.

"That's a lot!"

"Go on, go on!"

The father and son are happy and don't want to stop, a rare opportunity, a net is dozens of dollars more, there is no suspense at all, there is no better money than today.

Ye Yaodong continued to cast the net, and when he was on the spot, he actually netted two seabirds that rushed down to hunt.

He didn't care about it and continued to drag with Father Ye, and after a large number of sardines were pulled ashore, the two seabirds were also crushed to death.

They all fell to the deck, and he realized that the two seabirds didn't look right.

The light in front of him was not good, and his attention was always on the sardines in the sea when he cast the net, and he stepped forward to find that the two horses were gannets!

"! Father! He directly threw the gannet in his hand directly towards Father Ye.

This gannet is not small, with a body length of 150-160 cm and a weight of about 10~12 kg.

"Gannets?" Father Ye also recognized it.

They are called gannets in dialect, in fact, its scientific name is spot-billed pelican, its appearance is like a great seagull, big and beautiful, it is thick and fat, with a slender neck, a white body, a long and thick straight beak, lead blue, and an orange-yellow skin under the beak.

Ye Yaodong thought it was a seagull at first, but he didn't expect it to be a gannet!

He said happily: "Good thing! I'll cast a few more nets, and by the way, I'll cast a few more. ”

This seabird is now very flooded, and it is all over the sea, and it is not easy to catch it when it usually flies in mid-air, and it is vigilant. At this time, a large number of people are flying in mid-air to hunt, a rare opportunity.

Father Ye's old face also bloomed happily, fortunately he brought a fishing net today.

Ye Yaodong aimed his headlamp at the position to be scattered, and while arranging the hand-tossed net, when he was ready, a large number of sardines gathered again on the sea illuminated by the light.

He threw the net as high as he could, and this time caught three greedy gannets and dragged them ashore with the sardines.

Borrowing its phototaxis, the sardines on the deck are visible to the naked eye more and more with his unremitting efforts, and the number of gannets is also increasing intermittently.

People's strength is limited, and the strength of the hands of fishing nets that continue to pull hundreds of pounds will also be exhausted.

After pulling six or seven nets, the father and son had no strength, and their hands were very sore.

At this time, the sky was also glowing, and the two of them collapsed on the side of the boat tiredly, deciding to stop for a while. If they had followed the fish for a day's net, they would not have been able to lift their arms for several days.

The father and son kept shaking their arms and looked at the sea in the distance, and they were reluctant to take their eyes off or sit down to rest.

Because the sky was bright, they could clearly see that in addition to some lucky boats that encountered sardines on the sea, there were also many large fish chasing sardines for food.

It was dark and visibility was limited, so they were focused on the sardines in front of them, and occasionally their headlamps would shine on large fish, but they couldn't see clearly after dawn.

In the distance, there are a large number of sharks, whales, dolphins, seals, marlins, devil's head saury, tuna, sailfish, swordfish, etc.

All kinds of seabirds also gather on the surface of the sea, and there is no end in sight.

Ye Yaodong's mouth exclaimed again and again, ", it's really a famous scene, worthy of a sardine storm!" ”

Father Ye's eyes were not enough to seem, it was the first time he had seen such a spectacular scene so clearly.

"Dongzi, I'll go to drive the boat, let's chase the fish, put the hook by the way, don't waste the great opportunity."

"Although there are a lot of big fish, they can't eat sardines, and our bait is not very attractive."

"Try it, don't waste it, you can catch one or two to earn."

"Okay, those superb big fish are not easy to catch, and the smaller ones are not a problem, and if you catch them, they are banknotes."

Perhaps, probably, maybe there is another chapter in the night......

As for what time it is, it depends on what time I grind......

It is advisable not to wait, maybe the pigeons will be released???
