Zhao Dahai held his breath for a while, stared at the fish that pulled out of the water with wide eyes, and then relaxed the deflated ball.

"Hey!"

"Haruko!"

"I thought it was a big yellow croaker!"

Zhao Dahai smiled and shook his head. The spring fish looks a bit like a big yellow croaker, not only the body shape looks like but both kinds of fish will turn golden in the muddy environment of the sea, the same as the gold bar, and some places joke that it is "cousin of the big yellow croaker".

Zhao Dahai pulled the fish to the side of the boat, copied the net and took a closer look, yes, it was indeed a spring fish and not a big yellow croaker.

It is true that the spring fish is not as good as the big yellow croaker, but it is definitely a good fish, the fish is thick, there are no small spines, it is very delicate, and the taste is very good, and it can be eaten by children, the elderly or people with a weak physique.

The price of spring fish is far less than that of large yellow croaker, but relatively speaking, spring fish above eight taels can be sold for 80 yuan or even 100 yuan a catty, and the bigger the size, the more expensive it is.

Zhao Dahai picked the hook and weighed it, the spring fish caught was no less than two catties, this fish can be sold for at least two hundred yuan, not a big yellow croaker, the opportunity to make a fortune is gone, but a small fortune is inevitable.

Zhao Dahai is a little strange, the water depth in this place is about ten meters, which is not the best water depth for spring fish to grow.

Zhao Dahai pondered for a while, no clue, no matter thirty-seven twenty-one, just have it, the sea extends in all directions, the spring fish can come if they want to, no one cares if it is not, the hook is hung with a sea centipede, throwing the rod to the end, tightening the line, staring at the tip of the rod, shaking a few times for a while, not immediately raising the rod to stab the fish, waiting for a while until the rod bends down before raising the rod to hit.

The spring fish is a bit like a dog shark, and it eats very violently, and the one with a stuffy bite is easy to eat to death. This is different from black sea bream, especially yellow sea bream, black sea bream and yellow sea bream are very fine when eating bait, cautious and tentative, if the stinging fish eats the bait in time and spits out the hook and runs away, the yellow sea bream is more obvious, and when eating the bait, you have to let the line go out, and reduce your vigilance to be able to take the bait.

The more Zhao Dahai fished, the more surprised he became, the spring fish were hooked one after another, the smallest one was one catty, the largest one was almost three catties, and he stabbed the nest and this time it was the nest of the "cousin" of the big yellow croaker, I really didn't expect such a surprise.

Zhao Dahai shook his hand, the fishing rod in his hand is mainly used to catch about a pound of black sea bream yellow snapper, now the catch is two or three catties of spring fish, the rod is soft and thin, it takes a lot of hands, pull ten, the hand is sore, no way, and then dry, this place is ten meters of water, spring fish must be a passing fish, you must not be able to catch it at another time, hurry up and catch a few more.

The sun is sinking in the west.

Zhao Dahai put away the fishing rod, the time to make money passed very quickly, in a blink of an eye it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and the last spring fish caught was half an hour ago, there should be few fish, and he decided not to fish.

Zhao Dahai looked at the live cabin, it was full of black pressure and all the fish, took the net, kept it alive in the live cabin, fished out the dead and put it in the refrigerator, and folded it neatly, especially the spring fish, the price is very high, you can't be sloppy, you can't sell it at a good price.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat back to the village wharf, and when he almost arrived, he remembered that Zhao Shi had told him during the day that a lot of squid could be produced every year in a place ten nautical miles to the northeast, so he changed his mind and did not go home for the time being, turned a corner, and went straight to the past.

Night falls.

Where Zhao Dahai arrived, he looked left and right, there were no fishing boats nearby, it was pitch black, and only the sound of some waves crashing could be heard.

Zhao Dahai looked up and looked into the distance, the dotted lights were not dense, these were fishing boats, there were not many, but at four or five o'clock in the morning, the whole sea was brightly lit, which was very spectacular.

Zhao Dahai stopped the fishing boat, set up the lights on the sea, turned on the switch, the little sun was very bright, the blue-green underwater lights were put down along the side of the boat, the water depth of six meters and the sea water was relatively muddy, and only a cloud of yellow-green could be faintly seen.

Zhao Dahai rested while waiting, no squid, no cuttlefish, came a group of small fish, carefully looked at it is anchovy, this is a common small fish in the shallow sea offshore, the number of groups is very large when the season arrives, but generally no one catches, small, low price, different varieties of size from a few dollars a pound to a dozen yuan a pound, the key is that it is too troublesome to solve fish on the Internet, if you encounter a large group, the whole fishing net is fish, it is very labor-intensive and even the entire fishing net is scrapped, it is not cost-effective.

Zhao Dahai picked up the net, tried five or six times, only caught two or three, remembered that he had bought a few pairs of fish skin string hooks, and immediately took a fishing rod and tied it and threw it into the sea.

Fishing anchovy is very easy, when encountering a school of fish, the hook will bite, but it is very troublesome to unhook the fish, there are many hooks on the hook, and it is possible to hook the hand when you are not careful, especially when you catch the anchovy, especially when you are out of the water, you jump desperately, when you pick up the fish, the hook will be directly wrapped around the hand, and once the hook of the barb is pierced into the meat, it will definitely kill a person.

Zhao Dahai did not unhook one by one, this is too troublesome, holding the lead in his left hand, holding the fishing rod in his right hand, the line is tight, and he shook it up and down violently twice, and the anchovy hanging on the hook dehooked and fell on the deck, crackling and raining.

Zhao Da hooked and threw it into the sea, one after another, one after another, and in less than twenty minutes, the deck was full of anchovies, which was the real wild pull.

Zhao Dahai looked down at the sea, and under the strong light, the anchovies swam in the sea in groups, shuttling constantly.

Finished!

The sea is full of anchovies, and there can be no squid or cuttlefish.

Zhao Dahai was a little unrelenting, waited for an hour and replaced it with wooden shrimp, smoked for twenty minutes, and all the fish he caught were anchovies, very speechless, and gave up not fishing. There are indeed cuttlefish or squid in the sea, but there are certainly not many of them, at least I didn't encounter them tonight, and I made up my mind to try it here every time I go out to sea to fish, and see if I can make a fortune one day.

Zhao Dahai began to pack up the anchovies on the deck, this is a bargain, I don't plan to sell it just to eat it myself, I don't pay attention to it, I took a bucket and put it on, and pressed some crushed ice on it to finish.

Zhao Dahai returned to the wharf, it was almost eight o'clock in the evening, he hurried to pack up his things, cleaned the fishing boat, caught the fish, a little too much, the live fish and the valuable spring fish were taken home first, and then he rode a motorcycle to the wharf, took two net bags, one was filled with five or six catties of anchovy, and the rest was packed in another net bag, and went to the house of the second grandfather Zhao Shi, and sent five or six catties of the bag of fish back to his home.

Zhao Dahai took a knife and a cutting board, hit the fish scales to open the fish belly, cleaned about four catties of anchovies, each one had to have two taels, very fat, the stomach was full of oil flowers, the big iron pot was hot, put some oil and smoked, the fish was slightly fried and fried, put water, put ginger slices, put salt, put soy sauce, cover it for ten minutes, lift the lid of the pot, and saliva almost flowed out.

Zhao Dahai took a big iron basin, full of steaming iron basins, just went out and put it on the table in the yard, and called grandma Zhong Cuihua to eat.

"Grandma!"

"I've been fishing for the past few days, and I've come back late!"

"It's almost today."

……

"I want to see if there are squid or cuttlefish in the sea!"

"It's going to be night."

……

Zhao Dahai told her grandmother that Zhong Cuihua would come back a little later in the next few days, sandwich a anchovy, put the whole one in her mouth, pull it out, and pull out a fish bone, the fish meat is all in her mouth, salty and fresh, plus the taste of ginger, very good meal, one after another, eating sweaty.

Zhao Dahai finished dinner, looked at the fish caught today in the fish pond, most of the fish that can be fed are black sea bream, there are not many spring fish, a little proud, I made a lot of money today, and checked the chilled spring fish in the refrigerator, there is no problem to rest assured to take a bath, when I lie in bed, it is almost a little in the morning, and the tide is relatively early tomorrow, I have to get up at half past four in the morning to cook breakfast, and I will get to the dock to go to sea at five o'clock after eating.
