Chapter 143: A Fish Hiding in the Sand
Looking at the time, two fish, it took him half an hour.
In terms of the price of fish, it is well worth the time.
Blown by the sea breeze, Chu Mingcheng hurriedly went into the water.
This time he found another grouper, and it looked like it was a high probability that it should be a blue spot.
Judging from the size, there may be five catties, and if you catch it, you can buy about four hundred, which is not bad.
Chu Mingcheng was still the same old method, and the bait was lowered vertically from above it.
Unexpectedly, this grouper turned out to be a timid fish, and was directly scared away by the sudden appearance of the hook bait.
Chu Mingcheng was stunned, it was not the first time he had this kind of fishing, but it was the first time he would be scared away when he saw a fish.
So he was about to retract the bait when a particularly surprising figure appeared in the light.
This time, Chu Mingcheng's heartbeat was faster than the little mouse spot he had found before, and he even held his breath involuntarily.
Because underneath, there is a rat spot that is larger than the suspected blue spot.
The grouper just now naturally wouldn't be scared away by this rat spot, there is a difference in size between the two, but the rat spotter can't eat it, and it should indeed be frightened by the movement of the hook bait.
But Chu Mingcheng didn't expect that there would be another village under the water.
Such a big rat spot, maybe the value will reach tens of thousands.
Because the rat spots grow very slowly and the wild ones are small, the price is very high.
At present, that is, the wild large yellow croaker can be crushed.
This rat spot did not disappoint Chu Mingcheng, perhaps the grouper fish itself is more ferocious.
Don't look at its small head, but its mouth can open its mouth, and it swallows the squid bait in one bite.
The moment the fish hook pierced its mouth, Chu Mingcheng's hand pulled it hard, and the fish hook pierced again and pierced deeply.
Unless the line is disconnected, it won't be able to run.
But Chu Mingcheng wouldn't give it a chance to run, and directly pulled the fishing line and swam to the water.
This kind of superb grouper, he definitely won't take it with him.
The weight is estimated to be about ten pounds of rat spots, and the body is constantly shaking, but the water layer has been rising.
In the end, it was easily pulled to the surface by Chu Mingcheng, and it didn't even give it a chance to walk the fish.
That's why he chose the strong horse line, when he encounters the best fish, he won't let it have a chance to escape, it's just that he spends more effort pulling the fish.
If you walk the fish, you can make it much easier.
But Chu Mingcheng, who has a life transformation, doesn't care about the consumption of physical strength today.
Grabbing the mouseblob's mouth and tail, he swam to the side of the boat again.
The trouble is a little troublesome, but this fish is worth it.
With this rat spot, tonight's harvest is already impressive.
Chu Mingcheng wanted to break his income yesterday afternoon, who made today's grouper more!
It was busy until ten o'clock in the evening that he returned to the ship out of breath.
At present, a total of 13 groupers of various types have been caught, and there are also 5 parrotfish, and 1 is in Tsing Yi.
Fishing is not as efficient as fishing, but the fish are alive.
Now that he is a little tired, Chu Mingcheng is a little hesitant, whether he should go back to sleep, or use a life transformation to continue.
At ten o'clock, the fish were all hiding and sleeping, and there were not many fish still hanging outside.
Just now, he waited at the mouth of the rock crevice with bait for most of the day, but no fish came out, so he simply swam down and reached out to catch it, but unfortunately the rock crack was very large and escaped.
Now it seems that it is no longer easy to take the bait with bait, and you can only use a fish spear.
After thinking about it for three seconds, he thought that there were five life transformations, and there was no need to save it, so he used it once.
Suddenly, my physical fitness increased a little, but my physical strength and energy recovered most of it.
Chu Mingcheng picked up the fish spear and prepared to continue fishing.
This time, his main target is fish that are about the same value as live fish after being chilled, and the price difference is large like rat grouper, even if you encounter it, you have to keep it, sustainable development!
I almost walked around the nearby coral reef just now, and this time Chu Mingcheng drove the boat to the other side of the coral reef first, and he hasn't found it yet.
When he got out of the water, he realized that the water here was even deeper than the other side just now.
At night, fish like to be in deep water, so Chu Mingcheng dived directly to the bottom of the water.
When he came to the bottom of the water, he found that it was actually a sand bed, with a depth of at least 50 meters, forming a small fault with the coral reef next to it.
The water depth of more than fifty meters had little impact on Chu Mingcheng, but there could be something in the sand bed, and he was going to swim up and go to the coral reef.
Just as he turned to go up, and the current he drove hit the bottom of the sand bed, a flat fish suddenly jumped up, and ran up and down the way of swimming extremely fast, and the instant explosion startled him.
But when he saw it clearly, Chu Mingcheng's eyes lit up, it turned out to be a flounder?
But looking at the size of the fish just now, it is much larger than the ordinary flounder, and I don't know what kind of species it is.
The fish seemed to be quite good at hiding, but he was next to it but didn't move until the current rushed and suddenly ran away.
The explosive power in a moment is extremely fast, and the swimming speed is not slow, so it is not easy to chase.
But since there are flounders here, maybe there are still in this sand bed.
So Chu Mingcheng took the fish spear in his hand, and shone a diving flashlight in his left hand and began to look for it, and the previous headlight was low on power, so he took it back and charged it.
After swimming a dozen meters, he found one again.
The skin color of the back of the flounder is almost identical to that of the sand bed, and it is unrecognizable when lying on it without looking closely.
But a closer look reveals a distinct outline and a purring eyeball.
However, its other eyeball is a little lower, so it is not so conspicuous.
The silhouette of this flounder is seventy or eighty centimeters, which is really large.
Chu Mingcheng's fish spear was aimed at the position of its brain, and the fish did not run, thinking that it was safe.
A sharp arrow suddenly pierced its head, killing it with a single blow.
The flounder struggled for a short moment before it lost its life.
Chu Mingcheng swam up a little, leaving the range of mud and sand that had risen, and retracted the fish.
The fish is large, but it can be fastened with a live fish buckle and it will not be a hassle to carry it around.
Continuing to look for the next target, this time swimming about twenty meters, he found a second flounder.
It's also motionless, it's a live target.
And it doesn't seem that this fish lives alone, and if a person who can freely dive and hunt encounters this fish, it will be a good harvest.
After hitting eight flounders, Chu Mingcheng was obviously struggling to swim now.
Don't look at the flat body of the fish, but the weight is not light at all.
While he was still swimming, Chu Mingcheng simply returned to the boat first.
As a result, it was difficult to lift the fish up on the surface.
Therefore, he had to go up first and pull the fish up.
Out of curiosity, Chu Mingcheng took out the encyclopedia, and took the electronic scale and ruler.
He measured the largest one, which was eighty-three centimeters long, but the weight reached twenty-five pounds and seven taels, no wonder it was so heavy.
The smallest one here is also fifty centimeters long, and the weight is more than ten catties, and the eight are a hundred catties together, no wonder he feels heavy.
In this way, the meat yield of this fish will be quite high.
Picking up the encyclopedia, I first looked at the mouth and eyes of the fish, which were on the left.
That's the left-sided fish, so it's easy to find.
In the end, he learned that this fish was called flounder, also known as emperor fish, and its maximum body length could reach more than one meter.
This fish is a very good sashimi fish in Japanese restaurants, and the meat is soft and sweet.
The price is not clear to him at the moment, so he will have to check it when there is a signal.
Come out alone with a foam box, put the fish on the ice, and then Chu Mingcheng went down to continue hunting.
It took an hour, and I came up two more times, plus the first trip, and hit about 25 and 300 catties.
There are still a lot of them that haven't moved, but they are all less than 50 centimeters.
There are further places that I haven't gotten to, mainly because these three trips have made him quite tired, and the depth of the dive has accelerated his physical exertion.
And I couldn't put it on the boat, so I came back to wash and sleep.
In the early morning of the next day, Chu Mingcheng had breakfast, and went to the coral reef to fish for some groupers while the fish was good.
Banqin Shrimp Gu also caught some and spent a morning.
At present, there are thirty-six Banqin shrimps that are more than 20 centimeters, and many of the small ones have been kept in another fish box by Chu Mingcheng.
These were made by himself after Jiang Luoluo came back, and he sent a picture of a big meal last time, and he was wronged when he sent the message, and if he didn't keep his future girlfriend, he would be gone.
I took a shower and set off for the return voyage.
When he came to the sea area with a signal, Chu Mingcheng stopped the boat and took pictures of all the fish to be sold.
It was only when it was Mouse Spot's turn that he hesitated.
After thinking about it, I still took a photo and sent it to Wei Jiaguo.
Rat Spot's is so powerful, he replied almost instantly: "How many catties?" ”
Chu Mingcheng took out the electronic scale, put it on a basin again, and after the weight was cleared, he put the mouse spots on it, weighing eleven catties and two taels.
He took a photo of the weight and sent it over.
Ten seconds later, Wei Jiaguo sent a transfer message with 12,000 yuan on it.
The corners of Chu Mingcheng's mouth hooked slightly, and then replied: "Thank you, Grandpa, my boat will arrive at the dock in half an hour." ”
Wei Jiaguo over there did not reply, and it is estimated that he was already driving on the road.
Subsequently, Chu Mingcheng posted other photos of the catch to the group, including Banqin Shrimp Aunt.
The catch on board is very rare, so it is easy to sell.
Two-thirds of these groupers were robbed, and the rest of Chu Mingcheng kept the seafood restaurant here for himself.
Flounder is also a very good fish, and the customers in the group almost asked for one this time, regardless of the size.
He only had twenty-five in total, and in the end he forcibly left the five largest.
The flounder was sold for two hundred and three catties, and he also found out the price, eighty yuan a catty, and sold for sixteen thousand two.
Groupers and reef fish were sold for a total of 18,500 in a mess.
All the thirty-six shrimp were sold out, and the twenty-two without ointment were sold out at a price of two hundred and eight, weighing fifteen catties and four taels, and sold for four thousand three.
The female with the anointed one has a price of three hundred and eight, weighs nine catties and three, and sells for three thousand and a half.
Sure enough, don't look at the high price, it doesn't sell as much as a rat spot.
It seems that when there are no fish, you can catch some.
Drove back and contacted the transporter by the way. Now he is also a regular customer of the transportation company, and as soon as he calls, the other side immediately comes.
However, this time, Chu Mingcheng wanted to transport live seafood and asked the other party to bring oxygen equipment.
Back at the dock, Wei Jiaguo had arrived.
He waited for the boat to stop and boarded it directly, and found that there were many flounder on the boat, and looked at the wounds on it, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Then he looked at the live fish tank and the fish in the fish box, all kinds of excellent grouper or reef fish, and even the shrimp girl, so that he didn't know how to express his emotions.
His lips trembled, and his hand trembled slightly and pointed to the catch: "You made these alone?" ”
Chu Mingcheng shrugged: "If there is a third person on the boat, then I have to find a way to invite Uncle Ying out." ”
Wei Jiaguo is very envious, what a fishing spot with abundant resources this is!
He went to the open sea for two days, and the harvest was not so exaggerated, okay?
Then he approached his rat spot, and reached out and stroked it gently, as if he were caressing his own son's head.
