Chapter 90: The Legend of the Big Fish?
Zhao Dahai returned home from the town after selling fish, and went to the wharf to get on the fishing boat without taking a break, tidy up the fishing boat, sort out the fishing rod or something, and wash it with a few buckets of seawater, it didn't take twenty minutes to finish it all, and he didn't go home immediately, he had a fishing boat, he was a person who went out to sea to fish, and he had to mingle with others, and there were people on the fishing boats around, chatting, seeing what fish were in the sea recently, and inquiring about the market for selling fish.
"Won't it?"
"You said you caught 120 pounds of black sea bream today?"
Zhong Shizhu's eyes widened.
In the morning, when I went out to fish in the sea, I just came back, caught one hundred and sixty-eight pounds of black sea bream, sold to fishmongers, one pound and twenty-seven yuan, and earned more than four thousand five hundred yuan, very happy, I didn't expect to see Zhao Dahai now, a question is just a little more than a morning time, caught one hundred and twenty pounds of black sea bream and all of them are big black sea bream, don't look at the fish you caught more, but the fish at the mouth of the fishing mouth is better than your own small cargo, and can feed, the price is higher, the fish is less than yourself, and the money you earn is not less than your own.
"There are just a lot of fish in the sea."
"How can there be such a good market every day?"
Zhao Dahai shook his head. Today I did catch a lot of fish and made a lot of money, but this kind of good thing can't happen every day, and it's already hard to touch it two or three times a year. If fishing is really so profitable, you can all fish, and you can't think about going out to sea to release fishing nets.
"Huh."
"The sea is right. It is true that fishing can make money, but it is certainly impossible to compare it with going out to sea and releasing fishing nets. ”
Lei Dayou saw Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu talking, walked over, and heard that Zhao Dahai had caught a hundred and twenty catties of big black sea bream, and was very envious.
"You can definitely make more money by going out to sea."
"But the cost is much higher than fishing!"
……
"Recently, there have been more fish in the sea, but the purchase price has gone down."
"Carefully calculate an account, I didn't make much more."
……
"A few days ago, there was a boat in the next village, and a big fish ran away on the net, and the fishing net hung on the reef, and it was stunned to tear off the fishing net of two or three hundred meters, which is a big loss!"
……
Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment.
It's not surprising that big fish are often able to do this kind of thing, and they can pull their nets onto the hanging reefs, which is not simple.
"Is this fish a good one?"
Zhao Dahai looked at Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou.
"The sea."
"You've just gone fishing, and you've never heard of any of these things."
"This isn't the first time."
"There's a big fish there on Ushihoi Island, probably gentian grouper. Quite a few people put fishing nets in the vicinity, catching them more than once but breaking free each time. ”
"It's usually just a big hole left by a fishing boat, and the damage is not big. Yesterday, someone wanted to catch this big fish, using a fishing net that specializes in catching big fish, but I didn't expect to break free, the key is that the fishing net was all dragged into the reef. I can't pull it up, I can only cut it. ”
Zhong Shizhu lit a cigarette and took a puff.
"Hah!"
"Now there are really people who are saying that this fish has become a sperm. Seeing someone put a fishing net to catch themselves, deliberately hitting the net so that they could be pulled into the reef and entangled, this is revenge. ”
Lei Dayou smiled.
"How can there be such a thing? But this fish is not small. Caught in the net and struggling desperately. The big fish must have rushed into the reef pile. The nets are hung on the reef. ”
Zhong Shizhu shook his head, Cheng Jing's words were just nonsense.
Zhao Dahai nodded, Cheng Jing is really just joking, the big fish really has such a ability, a little strange is that the fishing net can't be pulled up and cut off when the fishing net is wrapped around the reef, how do you know that the fish has run away, maybe the fish is entangled in the fishing net, just can't pull it up and cut the fishing net, and the more important thing is how to determine that this is a gentian grouper.
Lei Dayou told Zhao Dahai that there was a big hole in the fishing net that was pulled up, all of which were slime, and he knew at a glance that it was gentian grouper.
"There are many people who think about this fish. Dozens of catties may not exceed 100 catties of gentian grouper, which is worth thousands of pieces. Many fishing boats have let their nets go, but they can't really catch them. This time, the people from the next village don't believe in evil, so they have to try. This is a big loss, and it is estimated that he will die. It's not early. I have to eat when I go home, and I go out to sea to fish a little later. ”
Zhong Shizhu finished smoking a cigarette, got up and left the fishing boat and walked back.
"The sea. I have to go back too! Cook a few dishes and drink some wine another day. ”
Lei Dayou and Zhong Shizhu left together.
Zhao Dahai pondered for a while and figured out the whole thing. Big fish, there must be. Niuhoi Island is not far away, their own fishing boat drove over but less than two hours, Niuhoi Island that place is full of reefs on the seabed, it is easy to hang the bottom of the fishing net, some people want to catch and have tried many times, the fish did not catch but put into a lot of fishing nets, and the people who want to catch it are slowly less. If you have this time, you can make more money by catching other fish, shrimp and crabs in other places. Fishing at sea is not a trick, you have to settle an account, and you will definitely not do anything that is not cost-effective.
Zhao Dahai left the dock and went home. I don't pay attention to the big fish, there are often such "rumors" in the fishing villages by the sea, and there are always some places where some big fish can never be caught.
Zhao Dahai went out to sea early the next morning to continue to fish for black sea bream, but he was busy until noon, changed seven or eight points, and did not catch a few fish.
Could it be that this is the sequelae of the big fish?
Zhao Dahai took the lunch box, there was no bite to eat lunch, there were fish not tired at all, not hungry without eating, hungry and tired when he didn't catch a fish, he didn't want to eat at all, he filled his stomach casually, opened the board of the live cabin, and took a look at the only seven or eight black sea bream, all of which were small fish of two or three taels.
Zhao Dahai shook his head. This is the reality that those who go to sea have to face. Whether it's fishing or netting, it's not uncommon to get hungry and full.
Zhao Dahai stood up and pulled out the bamboo pole that poked into the sea.
No fish?
Continue to change places.
It's to die.
Hope is always at the next location.
Zhao Dahai had just put the bamboo pole on the fishing boat, and the tip of the fishing rod shook vigorously several times.
It won't be, right?
I'm ready to change places, are there any fish at this time?
Zhao Dahai immediately picked up the fishing rod, lifted it up hard, stabbed the fish, pulled it out of the water, and smiled very helplessly, it was not a fish but a crab that took the bait, but it was not small, it was an orchid crab about the size of half a palm.
"Hey!"
"Fishing and catching crabs, this is a big deal, but what's the matter, if you have two or three, tonight's dish will be enough."
Zhao Dahai decisively started the diesel engine and left, and changed to another place, there are crabs in the sea, and there will definitely be no fish.
The sea breeze is scorching.
Blowing on the face and hands are hot.
"Plop puff!"
……
"Plop puff!"
……
Zhao Dahai shook the bamboo pole, waited for a while, there was no fish, dragged the fishing line, and waited for a while, but there was no fish.
Is this the case today?
Zhao Dahai sighed, I don't know how many places I changed today, I didn't catch fish in the first two days, including some places that I have never fished, I tried it again, and there were no more than ten fish together.
"Huh?"
"Isn't this Cowhoof Island?"
Zhao Dahai saw an island not far away, stunned for a moment, and remembered what Lei Dayou and Zhong Shizhu had said about the big fish yesterday.
