This time when he went to sea, Zhang Ze also had one more piece of equipment, that is, the top belly belt specially prepared for him by Tong Shuyao.

He originally wanted to go to the tailor's shop to make this thing, but his daughter-in-law took over the task when she found out, and she just finished it last night.

With this, he will not be afraid of the pain of the rod on the top of his stomach when he catches a big fish in the future.

Starting the Dofish, the engine was warmed up, and he followed the river into the sea.

Looking at the navigation, Zhang Ze thought about which location he should go to first.

Whether to go directly to Dongsha, or to visit a few fishing spots that I have heard about nearby.

At present, he is still familiar with the terrain and road conditions, and basically rarely uses the autopilot function to drive a boat.

It takes a lot of time to explore a new area of water, and along the way he can record the coordinates of fish infestation according to the situation shown on the fish finder.

In a small drawer in the cockpit, there was a notebook on which the coordinates of many fishing points he found during his two voyages to sea were recorded.

In addition, there are many fish and few fish are also marked, and some places can be shared with others, but some places where resources explode are only suitable for their own secret fishing spots.

It's a pity that Zhang Ze hasn't found such a secret fishing spot yet, the trench is actually very good, but it is too close to Hailing Island, and it is easy to be discovered by the fishermen on the island.

Secondly, Jin Sanbao also knows about it, so it is not suitable for secret fishing spots.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Ze decided to take a detour this time and go to the sea off Nanao Island to have a look.

It's also a good place, with plenty of fishing spots nearby, and there's a great fish, and he's going to try his luck there.

To go to Nanao Island, you have to go around half a circle, passing by Hong Kong Island.

However, the Duoyu has enough endurance, and Zhang Ze doesn't care about the detour, and he goes to the sea over there, and he doesn't plan to get close to the island.

Hong Kong Island is not big, and it doesn't take much time to get around.

It was already past nine o'clock when the longline bait was hanged, but it was nearly eleven o'clock when he arrived in the water.

There are a lot of small islands that pop up here, and fishing boats can basically see fish from the fish finder near the islands, and there is a little difference.

It is estimated that he is nearly 20 nautical miles away from Nanao Island, and to the east is Dongsha, so it is just a little detour.

All the way, he didn't encounter a ship.

After walking around the isolated island in his sight, Zhang Ze had a rough idea of the situation here, so he drove to the smallest isolated island.

On the surface, this isolated island seems to be the smallest, but the underwater reef should be the most widely distributed, so it also leads to the best fish resources here.

The rest of the location is occasionally shown in red, mostly yellow-green. However, there is a lot of red on the fish finder, indicating that there are either large fish or a lot of fish gathered here.

After determining the fishing spot, Zhang Ze turned off the engine and let the fishing boat continue to glide on the surface of the sea for a certain distance before lowering the anchor.

If the bottom of the water is sandy, you can put the anchor while the boat is taxiing, so that the anchor ditch is strong and the boat can stop early.

But the isolated island here will basically be a reef area, and if you put the anchor first, you will be cut off directly.

The water depth of the place he chose was close to 50 meters, and the closer you got to the island, the shallower it became, and it was surrounded by many reefs, forming a natural submarine basin.

If he could see it, he would find that there were more aquatic plants and algae plants at the bottom of the water than near other isolated islands, so there would be more fish resources than in other bare places.

Small fish like to hide in aquatic plants, and algae is also food for many small fish.

Big fish will be attracted by small fish, and a good ecosystem will be formed.

And it's not just fish, there should be no shortage of crabs and lobsters here.

So Zhang Ze put the shrimp pot down as soon as possible, the ground cage is not easy to put in this terrain, but unfortunately the crab pot he asked for is still being made, and it will take a while.

Recently, there are a lot of pike crabs, and every time I return to the ship, I can see crabs everywhere in the pier, so the current price is also very cheap.

However, Zhang Ze has space, he can catch some crabs that are left in the space, and when he takes them out during the Chinese New Year, it is estimated that he can pit many people.

It was almost noon when the shrimp pots were set, but he wasn't hungry yet, so he took out his rod and started fishing.

This time, the rod was adjusted directly to the hardest tone, and the hook was also slightly larger.

It's not fun to catch small fish, he still prefers to catch big fish.

As long as you find a school of fish, the effect of the magic bait is always very good, and the efficiency of catching fish is very fast.

As a result, the door opened today, and the first fish turned out to be just a half-pound perch.

But Zhang Ze, who has a pound, doesn't dislike it, and he doesn't know why his mouth is so wide, and his hook is not small, but he still put it into the space and kept it as a spare bait.

Then, he caught several small fish in a row, and he was speechless.

Knowing that the hook was still smaller, Zhang Ze replaced it with a larger one.

Although some fish with large mouths can still be swallowed, at least most fish under one pound can be excluded.

The hook was changed, and although the rod and rod still shook slightly, there were no more fish on the hook for a while.

At this time, seven or eight small fish gather at the bottom of the water to swim around the bait, and their aggregation has successfully attracted the attention of many large fish.

After waiting for about two minutes, the rod stuck in the pedestal suddenly bent down, followed by a clanging sound.

Zhang Ze, who was distracted, was immediately called back to attention, and hurriedly raised the rod to stab the fish.

As soon as the fishing rod was raised, he immediately felt a huge pull, and finally a big one came.

Through the feel, Zhang Ze roughly knew the size of the bottom fish, at least more than ten catties, but it should not exceed twenty catties.

The drum wheel kept making a "sizzling" sound until he put his hand on the rocking bing, which prevented the line from continuing to release.

The bottom fish have a lot of strength and keep swimming to the deep water, but fortunately they are not so fast.

Zhang Ze took off the fishing rod and put it on his stomach, so that he could not only exert force, but also pull the fish up faster.

Although the effect of the physique aura was only two days, he could clearly feel that his physical condition was better than before, and his body was full of strength.

Why do you need to walk the fish, just one word, dry!

He kept lifting the rod to reel in the line, and every time he lifted the rod, he could pull the fish back in a large section.

The fish only ran out of more than 30 meters, but during the period, Zhang Ze was forced to stop reeling and pull first.

But it still only took five or six minutes for this big fish of more than ten catties to appear on the water.

Zhang Ze took a closer look and found that it was an eel.

The eel had a blue-gray-brown body and a grayish-white belly, and he immediately recognized it as a rare red-billed eel, second only to the yellow-lipped fish.

Seeing that it was this fish, Zhang Ze was more energetic, and he was spun quickly.

The reason why he came here was not to see if he could catch a red-billed eel, but he didn't expect to catch the first big fish.

Soon, he pulled the fish to the side of the boat, and then he began to walk towards the stern entrance.

Using a net to catch fish or hooks, there is no direct access to the stern of the boat, and it is not easy to be run away by fish.

[Successfully caught a red-billed eel, weighing 16.55 catties, experience +20.] 】

The experience point is directly ten times worse than that of ordinary eels, which can also illustrate the preciousness and rarity of fish.

At present, Zhang Ze probably has a little understanding of the acquisition of experience points, basically the higher the price, the smaller the number of fish, and the higher the experience points.

Sixteen catties of red-billed eel is already very good, but the king of fish is estimated to be at least seventy or eighty catties, which is far from it.

However, if you catch such a red-billed eel, it is estimated that you have earned back the cost of going to sea this time, and I feel that it should be no problem to sell it for five or six hundred.

Although its economic value is far less than that of yellow-lipped fish, it is also more expensive than most groupers, and fish maw is quite popular in the market.

That is, the quantity is okay now, and in later generations, the best red-billed eel can be sold for six or seven hundred and one catties of fish meat alone, and the fish maw can be directly sold for hundreds of thousands.

Catching this fish was an easy one for him, but the heat still made him sweat.

Zhang Ze put away the fishing rod, went to the cabin to get a towel to wipe off the sweat, and then went to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

The weather is good today, but unfortunately the sun is too big, and the afternoon is not a good time for fishing.

Zhang Ze also doesn't like to fish in the sun, so after lunch, he directly lay down on the sofa in the living room and fell asleep.

Originally, it was best to go in the afternoon, but catching a red-billed ray made him change his mind, and he decided to stay here for night fishing.

There was magic bait hanging on the longline, and he didn't need to worry about the bait stinking.

When he woke up, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, but Zhang Ze really couldn't sleep.

Looking at the sun in the sky, he looked a little helpless, it was really difficult to have no mobile phone in this era.

In later generations, there were wireless boats on fishing boats, and even if he didn't fish and play with his mobile phone, he could quickly get through the time, and then fish at night.

Now not to mention smartphones, even Tetris consoles and Overlord will have to wait years.

Fortunately, he was not unprepared, and there were chess, mahjong and cards on board.

Playing alone, Zhang Ze had no choice but to choose solitaire and took out two cards to play solitaire.

At this moment, an old-looking tin boat approached slowly in the distance.

The ship seemed to have spotted him as well, and the ship that was going this way had changed direction slightly, and it looked like it was going around in half a circle.

Zhang Ze happened to be at the window position, and the ship was running normally, but the sudden change of direction attracted his attention and curiosity.

So he went to get the binoculars and observed the fishing boats in the distance.

There were two men smoking cigarettes standing outside the cockpit of the fishing boat, and the sun was blocked by the eaves above the corridor, so it was much more comfortable to stay outside.

But because of this, Zhang Ze saw the person on the other side clearly through the telescope.

When he saw one of the slightly familiar faces, he was full of surprise, how could he have a sense of familiarity when he didn't know him.

But after thinking about it, he still couldn't remember who the other party was.

However, there was one thing that caught Zhang Ze's attention, the two people outside were not dressed easily and did not look like fishermen at all.

Which fisherman wears a floral shirt when he goes out fishing?

"Smuggling? Sneaking? These two words immediately flashed through Zhang Ze's mind.

But I don't think it's right, smuggling and smuggling don't all happen at night, and it feels unrealistic in the daytime, and the goal is too obvious.

And if it were these two, the two of them wouldn't be so blatantly smoking outside.

It is estimated that he did not deliberately avoid his side, but the route just turned a corner.

Soon, the fishing boat disappeared from Zhang Ze's sight, and he also lowered his binoculars.

Shaking his head, whatever the case may be, none of this has anything to do with him.

After playing cards, seeing that the time was almost up, Zhang Ze prepared dinner, and after eating, he came out to collect the shrimp pots.

Seven or eight hours passed, and the shrimp pots also had a little harvest, and five shrimp pots harvested six lobsters and two pike crabs that climbed in.

The harvest in broad daylight was indeed a little worse, Zhang Ze threw the shrimp pot back, and the harvest is estimated to be better if it is harvested tomorrow morning.

The shrimp pots are put away, and the fishing will naturally continue at night.

But in order to increase the chance of the red-billed eagle being hooked, Zhang Ze put down two longlines for fishing shallow water.

The resources here are good, even if there are no red-billed eels there will be groupers and all kinds of sea bream, so it is totally worth putting two longlines.

However, before the longline was released, he also made a nest by the way, and it was almost noon during the day, and he didn't plan to fish all the time, just to try how the fish mouth was.

If you want to fish at night, you have to fish at least until twelve o'clock, so it is necessary to make a nest.

Busy with his work, Zhang Ze took out the fishing rod and put on the top belly belt by the way.

The daughter-in-law made it with his own hands, even if he didn't catch a big fish tonight, he had to take it with him all the time.

Why don't you wear it during the day?

It's so hot!

Just hold the rod in your hand, hang the bait and throw it into the water.

As soon as the bait entered the water, the fluttering appearance immediately attracted some fish attracted by the nest material, and they rushed to the bait position.

Zhang Ze held the fishing rod in one hand, and was about to take out a cigarette to cheer himself up at night, but suddenly there was a strong force from the fishing rod, and the bell on the top of the rod jingled.

The cigarette he had just taken out of his hand was thrown directly, and he grabbed the fishing rod and immediately lifted it up.

The fishing rod suddenly turned into a big curved bow, and Zhang Ze's body leaned forward slightly.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and decisively threw away the cigarette, otherwise the big fish might have run away.

Now that you have successfully stabbed the fish, the fish will basically not be able to escape.

Sure enough, the nest is right, attracting small fish, so the big fish are nearby, so there is a chance to catch medium and big fish as soon as you come up.

The strength of this fish is fierce, and I don't know how much fiercer it is than the red-billed eel at noon.

Even if Zhang Ze is full of strength now, he still can't rely on his strength to perform a miracle, and he can directly catch the fish, so he can only use his knees to borrow some strength on the side of the boat, and the fishing rod is against the top belly belt and start walking the fish.

He naturally wants to pull the fish up quickly, the fish mouth is so good, there is it when it comes up, and the faster he fishes, the more he will harvest.

Therefore, although it is uncomfortable to put his knees on the side of the boat, he can not only make it much easier with some force, but also pull the fish to the side of the boat faster.

"Drink~" At this time, the fish began to exert force and wanted to drill to the bottom.

Looking at this, he must hide in the reef cave, if he runs in, the general fishing line is estimated to be broken, and Zhang Ze will most likely have to use a winch to pull the fish out.

So he jerked up the rod and used all his strength to stop the fish from swimming.
