Chapter 259: Accomplishing the Basic Goal
Sixty experience points, Zhang Ze showed an expression that was really like this.
When he fished for the Koh's beaked whale last night, he wondered if it was because of the mammals that the experience of the Ko's beaked whale was so high, far more than that of the ferocious shark, and the finless porpoise fishing again today made him sure of this.
The finless porpoise is not a very large sea creature, and it is even the food of many large sea creatures.
But it can still have sixty experience points, and the king level has six thousand, which is not less.
Of course, this should also have something to do with the fact that the number of future generations is relatively scarce and added to the protection.
In general, the finless porpoise is divided into two kinds, one is the Yangtze finless porpoise, which is unique to the freshwater finless porpoise in China, which will not enter the sea, and it is also a first-class protected animal.
The second is the Indo-Pacific finless porpoise, which likes to be active in some brackish and freshwater waters, and is often seen at the seaside.
These finless porpoises are also targeted by fishermen, and they weigh enough and the meat quality is not bad.
The Indo-Pacific finless porpoise also exists abroad, and there are quite a few of them, so it was later protected at the second level.
These are not mainstream economic aquatic products, and Zhang Ze is not very interested in them.
After collecting the finless porpoise, it was just to see how much experience points there were.
He looked around, but did not find a particularly large finless porpoise, so he simply released the finless porpoise in the space and left here.
If there was a particularly large one, he would try to catch it to see if it would be a king-level creature.
After more than an hour of driving, Zhang Ze found another mangrove forest along the coast on his way to Hailing Island, which had not been discovered before.
Although he had been to Hailing Island a few times before, he did not drive along the coast.
Mangrove forest, what is the most impressive, that is naturally blue crab.
The second is the crab tiger and mudskipper, which is the "Raou" they caught when Zhang Zegang was reborn and took his younger brothers and sisters to the sea.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ze misses it a lot.
At the beginning, he relied on these things to improve his family's life little by little!
I haven't caught it for a long time, and I suddenly want to eat it.
Thinking that there were two ground cages on the boat that had not been used much, Zhang Ze stopped the boat and went to take out the ground cages.
After checking that there were no signs of damage, the two cages were put down.
There is a float, but I am not afraid that I will not find it when I come back.
If someone takes it away, it doesn't matter if Zhang Ze is taken away, he is just a whim, and he will not rely on the ground cage to make money for a long time.
Put away the cage and continue to Hailing Island.
Dragons usually live around the islands, and if you try to catch them on an island, you can basically catch this grouper.
But if you want to catch the kind of fish that is more than 1.5 meters, you have to rely on luck.
After a long absence, Zhang Ze met many local fishermen who were working nearby.
He didn't come closer, but farther away.
Fishermen are xenophobic, he used to grab resources from others, and he can't use trolls to deter him anymore, right?
There was a garrison on Hailing Island, and he didn't dare to do that.
The resources near Hailing Island are very good, and there are many reef groups distributed under the water, which are enough for Zhang Ze to fish.
He drove the boat slowly through these places while observing the fish finder.
Finally, passing by many small red circles, in a location where there are no fish resources, the fish finder detected a large fish.
The big fish should be resting at the moment, not moving much, it should be in its own nest, so no fish in the vicinity dare to approach.
With the presence of detectors, the fish really have nothing to hide!
Zhang Ze approached with the boat and came to the position above the big fish.
It's just a fish, and he hasn't done it for a while, so he simply came by himself this time.
I untied the fishing line from the bamboo pole, picked up the bamboo pole, and then took out the large fishing wheel from the warehouse and installed it.
Tie the line, hang the big hook, take out a common bait, and start fishing.
With a 30% chance of being hooked, many times it will not attract fish, so Zhang Ze waited for a while, and when he saw that there was no fish on the bait, he had to retract the fishing line and throw the rod again.
Repeat several times until the attraction effect on the fish is triggered.
Of course, this is only true for a single fish, if it is a group of fish, there will always be a part of it that will be attracted, so there is no need to worry that the fish will not be hooked.
After seven throws, the fish finally woke up from its sleep and was attracted to the bait.
And Zhang Ze on the boat didn't know, after waiting for a while, seeing that the fishing rod still didn't react, he was about to turn around and shake the Bing line, but the next moment a huge force struck, pulling him unprepared.
The impact of this big fish was so strong that the rod immediately bent into a big bow.
"Damn, this one is a bit big!" Zhang Ze was a little surprised, thinking that it was an ordinary thing, but this power was obviously beyond his imagination.
But his reaction was quick, and after leaning on the side of the boat, he immediately raised the rod to stab the fish, but he couldn't move much, and the fish was stronger than he thought.
Fortunately, the speed of the fishing line is not fast, which means that the fish is only strong, but the swimming speed is relatively slow.
Zhang Ze grabbed the crank handle to consume the fish's physical strength as much as possible, and let the fish run less distance.
The blood on my body is boiling, this feeling has been gone since I started fishing with a small winch, and I haven't seen it for a long time.
Zhang Ze wasn't sure if it was a giant grouper or other fish at the bottom of the water, anyway, let's talk about it first.
This will keep his attention on the fishing line, observing the situation.
At this point, the fish should go to the bottom to wash its gills, and keep shaking its head, trying to spit out the hook.
The rod and rod swing slightly from side to side, and the line is constantly shaking.
"Whoosh~"
Zhang Ze didn't let it get his way, so he immediately pulled the fishing rod up, and tightened the slightly loose hook again, letting it stab into the fish's lip again, almost penetrating.
The fish was in pain, and suddenly its ferocity erupted, and it began to run around with the fishing line.
And Zhang Ze on the boat held his breath, his face was already flushed, the muscles of his arms bulged, and even the thick coat was stretched out of the silhouette.
Seeing that the fish couldn't shake off the hook, he began to really break out, and his strength was very strong, and his physical strength was almost at his peak, which was the most difficult time.
Zhang Ze found that he couldn't fight a little, so he finally had to let go of the rocking bing, hugged the fishing rod into his arms, and let the fishing line be released.
The unloading force had been driven to the maximum, and he loosened the rock, and it was not so easy for the fish to run.
This round of eruption did not last that long, and it only took five or six minutes for the fish to stop and breathe for a short time.
Zhang Ze immediately grabbed the crank handle to reel in the line, and took the opportunity to really close a few meters.
However, the fish's physical strength is still very healthy at the moment, and when it feels that it is being ripped away, it can't help but start running again.
Seeing this, Zhang Ze stopped and maintained the situation.
If you want to pull it back when the fish is still very strong, unless several people work together to compete with the fish tug-of-war, even the most powerful person in the world can't do it with a single fishing rod.
The fish ran and stopped, and Zhang Ze just pulled back and forth with him.
The time passed quickly, and the fish basically spun in place except for the first run of more than 100 meters.
ran out some distance, and the rest time was dragged back by Zhang Ze.
An hour passed, and the physical exertion on both sides was very high.
But Zhang Ze took advantage of the fishing rod and was in much better condition than the fish.
Although the fish continued to run after resting, it did not know that it was getting closer and closer to the fishing boat.
Another half an hour passed, and a huge totoaba appeared on the surface of the water in the sun.
The visual length has exceeded two meters, probably between two meters and three to two meters and five, but Zhang Ze, who saw this fish, fell into a state of ecstasy.
A totoaba more than two meters long, what is that, of course it's a yellow-lipped fish!
The largest yellow-lipped fish recorded in later generations is only two meters, and his one is almost two meters and a half.
This time he made a lot of money, can he not like it?
The heart was pounding rapidly, Zhang Ze forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, the fish has not come up yet, and it is not too late to be happy after being put into the space.
In broad daylight, it is safest to use a crane to lift the fish up and put it into the space.
But Zhang Ze couldn't wait, for fear of accidents.
He didn't get close to Hailing Island himself, because of the local fishermen, he ran a little farther away.
I ran farther because I was looking for fish, and there were no boats nearby.
There may be a certain risk of being seen, but because of this huge yellow-lipped fish, Zhang Ze can't take care of this risk anymore.
He dragged the fish to the stern of the boat and quickly reeled the line.
At this moment, the fish was completely out of strength, and was lying on the surface of the water at his pull.
In half a minute, the fish came to the stern.
Zhang Ze looked up and looked around, but he didn't find the fishing boat, so he immediately reached out and put the fish into the space.
Whew~ Relieved!
I caught a two-meter one before, so he made a lot of money, this one has two meters and four three, isn't it more cool?
[Successfully caught a yellow-lipped fish, weighing 310.31 catties, experience (king fish) +10,000. 】
Three hundred and ten pounds, it should be the largest yellow-lipped fish in the world.
This will just give another 10,000 experience points, and Zhang Ze spent this 10,000 experience points without thinking about it and used it on the yellow-lipped fish.
By this time tomorrow, the weight of this yellow-lipped fish will reach more than 400 catties, and it is estimated that even he will not be able to break this record.
"Cool!"
Zhang Ze, who was originally tired, felt that he could still catch ten more big goods at the moment, maybe he would make a living from fishing in his life, and catching these valuable fish was happier than he was when he found a box of gold jewelry.
Obviously, the value of gold jewelry is higher, and he himself is a little unsure of his mentality and thoughts.
After going back to the kitchen and pouring a bowl of boiling water and replenishing the water, Zhang Ze continued to come to the wheelhouse to drive the boat to look for new big fish.
Among the three objectives of this voyage, the most difficult yellow-lipped fish has been completed, and the rest is the giant dragon group.
Compared to the yellow-lipped fish, there are many more dragon groupers, even if they are giant.
At least in later generations, the wild yellow-lipped fish was almost extinct, but there was still an occasional giant grouper.
No, in the evening, Zhang Ze finally caught a giant dragon grouper, but unfortunately it was only a little over a hundred catties.
The red-billed eel and the yellow-lipped fish are both king of fish levels, so they can't be paired with a little guy, right?
In the winter, hiding in the cockpit at night to warm up, even if Zhang Ze is not very afraid of the cold, he still doesn't want to fish against the sea breeze.
At this time, he was rushing to the open sea.
The three goals have actually been completed, and the dragon is a little smaller, but it can also be done.
In the next period of time, try your luck when you go to sea, and maybe you can catch a bigger one.
So Zhang Ze is targeting two large fish, tuna and marlin, which are his new goals.
When it opens, a row of big fish lying on the board is attractive, and it can also make people impressed, and after a fish is shocked, it is estimated that it will not be long before it is forgotten.
Now in winter, in the waters south of Dongsha at a depth of 200 meters, there will be a large number of fat and strong yellowfin tuna.
In the northern part of Dongsha near Wanwan, you can encounter bluefin tuna.
Of course, these fish are migratory fish, and the location of these encounters is not absolute, but there is a high probability of encountering these two places.
But the direction Zhang Ze is heading to now is not these two locations, and it is close to the continental shed on the high sea.
These places have a good fish stock, and it's easy to encounter a variety of large fish that are difficult to see.
It is more dangerous, and you may encounter some fishermen from other countries who secretly enter the country to fish.
It is also possible to encounter some ships that go to trade on the high seas, and even pirates are not without it.
However, the odds are not high, the sea is so vast, the multi-fish is too small.
Originally, Zhang Ze wanted to go directly to the mainland shed at night, but halfway through the road, he accidentally found a small island.
When he got closer, the fish finder showed a lot of resources, which made it difficult for him to let go.
Don't fish, waste such a good resource.
Let's fish, it will be delayed for another day.
In the end, Zhang Ze still stopped the ship and anchored. If you don't catch a fish, is this still a fisherman?
Dismantle the large fishing wheel with a bamboo pole, attach it to a winch, tie the fishing line, and hang the ordinary bait to start fishing.
As soon as the five fishing rods began to work, Zhang Ze stood by and waited.
Originally, although the number of fish at the bottom of the water was large, it was still relatively scattered.
However, the five baits exerted their strength at the same time, each attracting some nearby fish to come, and a group of fish suddenly gathered.
The fishing rod on the boat fluttered, almost partially front and back.
Zhang Ze's eyes lit up, there were a lot of fish!
He hurriedly opened the winches and collected the fish.
The hook is on the large side, and the main target is between three catties and ten catties, of course, some fish with small mouths can't be hooked.
Soon, two groupers and three reef fish were caught.
Both groupers are blue-spotted, and two of the reef fish are parrotfish, but one is Napoleon wrasse, which is lucky.
The meat of large sea wrasse is rough and not delicious, but the sea wrasse under five catties is still good.
The smaller the thing, the more expensive it is, but the bigger the catty is actually about the same for the money it sells, so the size doesn't matter to the fishermen.
All put into the space and continue fishing.
Fishing and fishing, suddenly, one of the sea fishing rods suddenly bent down violently, and Zhang Ze suddenly became nervous.
How did this rod catch a big fish?
This rod is not a heavy rod, and it is easy to explode when you catch a big fish. Secondly, the hook is not big, and the fish is easy to run.
But since you have taken the bait, you have to fish.
Zhang Ze still started the winch, maybe he was lucky and successfully caught the fish?
The water here is not deep, only in the early thirties, and there is a certain chance.
The greedy Zhang Ze did not choose to cut the fishing line as soon as possible, and although the fishing rod was bent badly, it was not broken, and he felt a little relieved.
The quality of the rod is really good, and the hook on the bottom of the water is obviously a very large fish, and the speed of the winch is not fast.
At a depth of only 30 meters, the winch fished for about 20 minutes before it completely pulled the fish to the surface.
"Damn, I'm very lucky today!"
