Chapter Eighty-Nine: This Is Fishing Paradise

According to the boatman, the fish resources at the first fishing point are very good, they are all large goods, ten catties and twenty catties are very common, and if you are lucky, you can come up a lot of fish of thirty or forty catties.

But the actual location is still some distance from Xisha, and this fishing spot was actually discovered by the boat owners who often take their fishing friends out to sea.

Here, when you're unlucky, there's no harvest, and when you're lucky, everyone gets a good harvest.

Therefore, every time the boat owner goes to sea, he will try his luck first, but the specific situation will not be known until the boat owner has seen the fish finder and notified everyone.

When fishing in places like Xisha Nanyou, don't use common sense experience of shore or offshore fishing.

Many first-time anglers usually find that they don't need any of their previous equipment except scissors.

Chu Mingcheng's line group is a conventional fishing group here, and many times when fishing deep-sea fish, you will encounter forty or fifty catties of large goods, these large goods are very fierce, and the slightly smaller lines will be cut in one second.

After dinner, he saw that some people were already standing, so he hurriedly returned to his room, took out his fishing rod, and took a right No. 5 fishing spot on the back deck.

When fishing for deep-sea fish, there is not so much difference between the front and back decks, and there is plenty of space.

But the location on the sides of the boat is not very good, and the corridors are crowded with people.

The sea breeze at night is very cool, and the sun has just set and it is not very cold, but you will need a coat after a while.

Time passed slowly, the Sky arrived at the destination fishing spot, and the boatman came with good news, the fishing spot tonight is very rich, which makes the fishing friends on the ship very excited.

Chu Mingcheng had already put on a waterproof jacket at this time, which could block the wind and water.

The wind and waves are strong at night in the deep sea, and the splash of water when the sea hits the hull of the ship will occasionally turn over the side of the ship and hit people, which is also the source of the dampness in the room on the first floor.

Chu Mingcheng was about to fish, so he called the boatman to ask about the type and price of bait.

"Good luck today, there are a lot of big fish at the bottom, you can buy some live mackerel (also called pond boy) for ten yuan a catty."

"If you want to catch long-tailed birds, you can buy some Antarctic shrimp and shrimp bricks, as long as 80 pieces have two and a half catties, all of which are prawns. The nesting is cheaper, 60 a piece. ”

Antarctic shrimp bricks are all frozen, and they need to be thawed when taken out.

In addition, the Antarctic shrimp rots quickly, and the shrimp head will turn black after a long thawing time, which affects the probability of being hooked, so it takes about 4~6 hours to use it up.

Or if you can't use it up, take it back and refreeze it in time.

Considering that Antarctic shrimp bricks can not only be used for fishing, but also a sharp weapon for nesting, he bought some of both kinds of bait.

He plans to try the mouth with mackerel first, and if it is inefficient to catch large fish, then he will go fishing for smaller fish such as redtails.

Soon, the boatman brought in buckets of live mackerel and Antarctic shrimp bricks.

The boatman brought a small basket and hung it on the side of the boat, and then placed a shrimp brick, which was used to make a nest.

Entering the water with a sink (shrimp pot) and hook bait will quickly attract nearby fish.

Waiting for the time for the shrimp bricks to melt, Chu Mingcheng opened the mackerel box and took a look, and found that the fish inside were basically 10 to 15 centimeters, looking at its belly, it was still Australian mackerel.

When he first sold this thing, the fishmonger collected it for four yuan, but it turned out that it was more than doubled here, but it was really a big profit.

But there was no way, the price was about the same when he went out to buy it himself, and he had to move it up by himself, which was even more troublesome.

And the ones bought outside are basically dead, and the live fish provided on the ship is a great advantage.

After a while, the shrimp bricked a little, and Chu Mingcheng put the melted Antarctic shrimp into the bottom nest machine, and then hung a mackerel and threw the hook bait into the water.

Under the weight of the large plumb sinker, the hook bait sinks quickly.

There is also a balance between the lead sinker and the front wire, and it is necessary to prepare for fishing deep-sea fish in places such as Xisha Nanyou, mainly to prevent the front wire and the main line from being entangled.

Chu Mingcheng kept looking at the numbers on the electric winch until the numbers on it stopped at 157 meters.

He then recovered the three-meter string so as not to hang on the bottom.

However, due to the turbulent currents of deep-sea fishing, the fishing line is very long, and the stress area is large, even a few kilograms of lead sinkers may drift left and right under the action of the rapids, so it is necessary to always observe the condition of the fishing rig relative to the seabed.

When the current is high, you need to lower some to avoid the distance from the bottom of the rig.

On the contrary, if the ocean current becomes smaller and the line is not retracted in time, it is easy to cause the fishing rig to hang on the bottom, and deep-sea bottom fishing is actually quite troublesome.

Chu Mingcheng himself is fishing for the first time, although he has learned a lot of theory, but he has not yet practiced it.

Fortunately, the current under the water is not very large, and the 3-meter line he recovered is just right.

The rig is in place, and it will depend on when the fish will be hooked.

After waiting for about three minutes, Chu Mingcheng found that there was a sudden shaking of the tip of the fishing rod, and then the rod was violently pressed.

His eyes lit up, and the speed at which he got on the fish was okay!

Judging from the situation of some fishing friends around, he was one of the first to catch fish.

Hurriedly pressed the button, the Z30 electric winch started, and the strong pulling force made the fish at the bottom of the water have no ability to resist.

You can see the rod fluttering from time to time, which is a sign of the fish struggling underwater.

And judging by the magnitude of the downward bend of the rod, the fish caught is not small.

Chu Mingcheng looked nervously at the fishing line, and under the illumination of the light, he soon saw a red figure in the water.

The sound of the electric winch winding up has long attracted the boatman who is in charge of helping to pick up the fish, and after he saw the fish out of the water with gloves, he directly helped pull up the fishing line, pulled the red friend fish up, and then tied a white cable tie.

There is also a number 3 on the white cable tie, indicating that the catch of the No. 3 white cable tie belongs to Chu Mingcheng.

Quickly pulled up from the deep sea, the swim bladder of this red friend fish spit out to its mouth.

The red fish does not need to be bled out, and the boatman has to take the fish to the freezer.

And Chu Mingcheng, who was a little excited about catching such a big red friend, hurriedly stopped: "Wait first, I'll see how heavy it is." ”

This red fish is almost a lap bigger than the one he caught by diving before, just from the size of the body.

He lifted it up with a fish controller and found that the fish weighed twenty-three pounds.

More than 20 catties of red friends, if it is in his hometown, the dock will definitely be watched, but here, the boatman did not react at all, but a few fishing friends around turned their heads and looked at it a few times, which seemed to be normal.

According to the price sold before, this fish is worth more than 2,000.

Not counting the equipment purchased, the total cost of going to sea this time should be about 10,000, so this is one-fifth of the cost?

Even if it is at the normal price of 60 yuan a catty, it is more than 1,300.

Chu Mingcheng was suddenly a little dazed, at this speed of making money, some fishing friends who came to Xisha to fish said that they lost money, how did they lose money?

He looked around, and there were people fishing one after another, most of them were red fish, and one person had a big octopus red, more than a meter long.

In fact, it was their group of people who were lucky today, when they encountered a small ocean current.

Just yesterday, another ship stopped here for the night, but they encountered a stream of planes, and five pounds of plumb were blown away.

There was a chartered boat, and twenty-five people chartered a fifty-meter boat under the three leaders.

As a result, not only did they not prepare the original live mackerel, but they also did not prepare the large plumb sinker, so the anglers on that boat had to sleep for one night and leave.
