Early morning.

Just after six o'clock, Zhao Dahai got up, pushed open the yard door, cleaned up inside and out, the pond used to feed fish in the corner of the wall was washed again, the vegetable garden behind the house turned around, the fence had been re-strengthened yesterday, the bamboo stake that was newly driven into the ground was almost half a meter, very stable, however, if there was a big typhoon, it should be poured or poured, the vegetable seeds that had been sprinkled for a few days had begun to germinate, and it could be transplanted in about a week, and it didn't take much time to be full of green vegetables that could be eaten in the garden. The chickens began to run around happily again in the pen. Yesterday I went to see the forest on the mountain, and the typhoon knocked down the trees that could not grow anymore, cut them down and pulled them back and piled them up behind the house.

Zhao Dahai returned to the yard, tomorrow to go to sea to release the row hook, the preparation work has to be done, took a few large barrels and small barrels, put on the tricycle box and drove to the beach, many fishing boats came back from fishing, the typhoon landed five days ago, these days have not been out to sea, one is not many fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, the other is not small in the sea, grandma Zhong Cuihua did not say but worried, and promised Ding Xiaoxiang, simply stay at home for a few more days.

Zhao Dahai turned around, there were already people out to sea two days earlier, but there are really not many fish, shrimp and crabs, I saw that there was a dragon head fish, and immediately bought thirty catties, which is a small fish that is almost the size of a finger, relatively cheap, and can be used when I put the row hook tomorrow, and I bought thirty catties of mud shrimp the size of a little finger, no need to live, dead enough.

Zhao Dahai bought the dragon head fish and put it on the tricycle, got on the fishing boat and cleaned it up, tried the diesel engine, there was no problem, carried the seawater to rinse the deck, and then began to fill the big barrel on the tricycle with seawater, pulled it back, the live fish pond was full, and tried the pump for oxygen and pumping, everything was fine.

Zhao Dahai took a foam box, poured the dragon head fish and shrimp into it and added a little ice.

"Grandma."

"The weather is almost there, there is a good tide tomorrow, I want to go to sea!"

Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Cuihua walking out of the yard and said that he would go to sea tomorrow.

"Okay!"

"Go ahead!"

"Are you going to put a row hook?"

Zhong Cuihua looked at the dragon head fish and small mud shrimp contained in the open foam box.

"Just a few days after the typhoon."

"I just looked at the dock, and the fishing boats that went out to sea put their nets and no one caught many fish."

"Fishing won't be too good."

"Try some hooks, maybe catch more fish."

Zhao Dahai plans to put the hook early tomorrow morning. When there are more fish, shrimp and crabs in the sea, it is more cost-effective to fish, and when there are not many, put a row of hooks, and the sea covered is relatively wide, so you have the opportunity to catch more fish.

Zhao Dahai finished dinner, took the hook tied a few days ago to hang the bait, a hook to hang the dragon head fish and a hook to hang a small mud shrimp, grandma Zhong Cuihua saw it and walked over, said a few words and didn't want to listen, had to help, could only agree, not all the hooks were hung up, only hung ten baskets, after hanging it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, go to bed early.

Five o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dahai rode a tricycle, with ten baskets of hooks to the wharf, most of the fishing boats have gone out to sea to fish, there are few left, the whole wharf seems empty, there is no delay, all the hooks are loaded on the fishing boat and go to sea immediately.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat, the sea was dark, looking ahead, the stars were all the lights of the fishing boats, there were some waves on the sea, the fishing boats were slapped on the sea one after another, the splashed sea water was very high, the sea breeze blowing over was a little big, the water mist slapped directly on the face and body, and the whole body was soaked for a while.

Zhao Dahai didn't care at all, he sucked hard several mouthfuls of the sea breeze with a fishy and salty taste, and he was a little bored at home for a few days, but now he was refreshed immediately when he went to sea.

Zhao Dahai didn't drive too far, slowed down in less than an hour, this place is a gravel bottom, the fishing boat will run a little farther, the fishing boat will not run so far, just can put the hook.

Zhao Dahai picked up the buoy of the row hook and threw it into the sea, followed by the lead sinker tied to the end of the row hook, and the fishing boat slowly moved forward, and the hooks of the dragon head fish and mud shrimp were put into the sea one by one.

The main thing to put the hook is to straighten the main line, if the main line is not straight, it will all be entangled, and you can't catch fish one after another. One has to drive a fishing boat and put a row hook, which is not easy, but you can do it slowly.

Zhao Dahai finished putting the hooks of one basket and changing to another place to continue to put the hooks of another basket, and the hooks of ten baskets were finished, and the sky was already bright, and it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dahai took out the food he brought, rested while eating, and had to pull the hook for a while, and it would be a few hours to pull it, so he had to eat early.

Zhao Dahai finished eating, drank a few sips of water, rested for a while, drove the fishing boat back to the place where the first basket was hooked, took the hook, hooked the buoy, pulled it to the fishing boat, pulled up the lead sinker and put it in the basket, began to close the main line, and put it in the basket in a circle, so that the next time it is released, there is no need to rearrange it.

The first hook has no fish.

The second hook still has no fish.

Zhao Dahai collected half a basket of row hooks, and there was not a single fish on the main line of two hundred and fifty meters.

Why are there so few fish?

Is it so bleak after the typhoon?

Zhao Dahai frowned. The characteristic of the row hook is that the sea surface covered is relatively large, and as long as there are fish in the sea, the chance of catching it is relatively large, but now, no matter how big or small.

Zhao Dahai continued to collect the row of hooks, the first basket was all collected, there was not a single fish, a little disappointed, looked around carefully, remember this place, next time you will definitely not come here to put the row of hooks and not come here to fish, five hundred meters every ten meters of a hook, this is fifty hooks, even a small fish can not be caught, only there is no fish in the sea.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat to the second place where the row hook was placed, scooped up the buoy, pulled up the plumb sinker, and began to close the main line.

The first hook has no fish.

The second hook has no fish.

Twenty hooks in a row, but there were still no fish.

Zhao Dahai was a little depressed now, and the hook of the second basket was almost half-pulled, but there was still not a single fish. The harvest was so dismal.

Zhao Dahai took a break, picked up the water cup and drank a few sips of water, and pulled seven or eight hooks one after another.

"It's coming!"

"Finally there are fish!"

"Black sea bream!"

Zhao Dahai pulled the main line with his right hand, felt that there were fish struggling and striking, and kept shaking and shaking, this is a typical action after the black sea bream is hooked, pull out of the water to see, sure enough, it is a big black sea bream of about two catties, and the hook is thrown into the live cabin, this is the first harvest today, I looked at it, and I ate small mud shrimp.

There are two kinds of bait hung on the row hook, one is a small mud shrimp, the other is a dragon head fish, the first time I put the row hook, I don't know what kind of bait the fish in this sea like to eat.

The first fish I caught was a small mud shrimp. If most of the fish on the hook next eat small mud shrimp, the next trip to put the hook will only hang small mud shrimp, and there is no need for dragon head fish.

Zhao Dahai was in good spirits, and with the first harvest, his mood suddenly improved a lot, and he continued to close the hook.

Zhao Dahai finished collecting the hook of the second basket, wiped the sweat on his forehead, smiled bitterly, was a little too happy, and caught a black sea bream of about two catties, and the next dozens of hooks only caught a small yellow bream with three fingers, a sand tip fish and a golden drum fish.

Zhao Dahai directly sentenced the second place to death, not to mention that if you put the hook, you won't come to fishing, which is no different from the first place.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat to the third place to put the hook, and after collecting it, he received the sixth place to put the hook until the fourth.

It can't be true that there are few fish, right?

Zhao Dahai couldn't believe it, after collecting five baskets of row hooks, less than ten catties of fish, he thought that he could catch a little more fish and make more money by putting the row hooks, but at present, he really thought too much and was too naïve, not only did he not have the fish he wanted to catch, but there were not many other fish, black sea bream, yellow sea bream, and other common fish.

Zhao Dahai has no way at all, whether there are fish in the sea or not, it is not up to him to decide, the hook has been put into the sea, and whether there is one or not, it has to be put away.

Zhao Dahai began to pull the row hook of the sixth basket, and as soon as he pulled up the main line, he immediately felt very heavy-handed.

Coming to the big fish?

Zhao Dahai couldn't believe it, and pulled it lightly and hard, a completely different touch of black sea bream and yellow sea bream, very heavy and rolling.

It's really coming!

Zhao Dahai immediately continued to pull the line, carefully, the sea water was not deep, and after a few minutes, a fish came out of the water.

"Hah!"

"Hah!"

"There really is!"

Zhao Dahai was surprised and delighted, it was the target fish that he put the hook on this time, with the same thick arms, a long snake-like fish body, and a blue gray back and white belly.
