Chapter 376 Catching Small Yellow Croakers at Night
Ge Xiaohua saw that the weather was good and planned to go fishing. He was not very experienced in this area, so he asked Yuan Zhiming to give some advice. Normally, the first mate and the others were sailing, and Yuan Zhiming came on stage at critical times. For example, last night, when he rode the wind and waves to break through the storm range, Yuan Zhiming
It can be said that he is one of the greatest heroes. He once survived a shipwreck and lived on an uninhabited island for more than three months. His ability to survive in the wild is also extremely strong. This is why he can become a captain at the age of 40.
"Boss, when you are fishing, you cannot stand still. This is different from fishing on the river, because sea fish move very fast." Yuan Zhiming gave a demonstration. Having grown up in the sea, he
Under the guidance of Ge Xiaohua, sea fishing is no longer a problem. If food is scarce on the boat, they will also fish on the deck. After fishing for a long time, they will have richer experience.
"When fishing in the sea, you should also pay attention to the place where the cold and warm currents meet. There will be more fish caught there."
"To catch fish, you need to know astronomy first and geography second?" Ge Xiaohua couldn't help complaining, but he was also concentrating on studying, while Mo Tingxian was doing his daily homework and meditating.
After all, it was Ge Xiaohua's first time fishing in the sea. Under the guidance of Yuan Zhiming, he had no harvest. Luck and strength complement each other. The most annoying thing was that Yuan Zhiming couldn't stand it and started fishing by himself. He actually caught a sea bream within an hour.
The fish is in good quality and weighs about 5 pounds.
"Haha, we have some sashimi to eat." Yuan Zhiming said with a proud look on his face. He took it directly to the kitchen and started processing it. A plate of good sashimi was brought to the deck. Ge Xiaohua ate a piece and his anger disappeared immediately.
Chilled sashimi tastes better because it is freshly caught, so every bite tastes like the sea. The freshness is something that people like Ge Xiaohua, who have been in inland cities for a long time, cannot appreciate.
"It's delicious!" Ge Xiaohua was attracted by the sashimi. He fished in the sea for several hours but failed to catch anything. Someone came to fish for a while and caught a snapper. This kind of sashimi can be bought for thousands of dollars in a hotel.
Things are rare and expensive. There are all kinds of seafood at the seaside, so you don't know how to cherish it and just eat and drink as much as you want. But when you go inland, because there are less ingredients at the seaside, this kind of sea bream, whether it is fish meat or bones, will be processed rationally.
, such as fish bones
, the fish head can be used to stew soup and the like, and the fish meat can be made into sashimi, fried fish balls, etc. One snapper can make five or six dishes, and in the sea, you can eat it at any time, so you don’t have to worry about it.
Just deal with it and eat the essence.
After experiencing fishing in the sea, Ge Xiaohua took a sunbath. He wore sunglasses and sat on the deck to bask in the sun. He fell asleep unknowingly. When he got up, he found that his skin was much darker than before. It was developing in the direction of Louis Koo, but for Ge Xiaohua
For this kind of blacksmith, bronze skin looks more masculine.
"We've arrived at the fishing ground! Boss, we found a group of small yellow croakers this time and plan to fish at night."
"Small yellow croaker? There are a lot of them?"
"Probably several hundred tons. Now is the migration season of small yellow croakers, which is a great time to catch small yellow croakers."
An experienced captain can clearly understand what kind of fish is abundant in that fishing ground. Yuan Zhiming's first goal is these hundreds of tons of small yellow croaker, which is caught by trawling.
"Okay, I hope we have a bumper harvest this time!" Ge Xiaohua didn't expect to be able to participate in such a large-scale fishing work after just a few days at sea. Although he was a bystander and might not be able to help, he could gain more experience and help.
It will be good to accumulate experience next time. This belongs to Ge Xiaohua himself.
I will have the opportunity to go fishing in person in the future. This time is regarded as observation and learning. In fact, it also means supervision. However, this is not because they do not trust Yuan Zhiming and other crew members, but because their boss Ge Xiaohua is here, their work enthusiasm
Will improve, after all, they all want to perform in front of the new boss.
"Master, we are going to catch fish at night. Do you want to go and watch?"
Ge Xiaohua knocked on the door, but no one responded. After opening the door, he found that Mo Bianxian's face was livid and seemed to be very uncomfortable.
"Real person..." Ge Xiaohua hurriedly asked the full-time doctor on the ship to come over and take a look. This doctor usually works part-time as a crew member. He occasionally treats diseases and the like, and his salary is higher than that of ordinary crew members. He used to work in a health center.
Later, because I liked the sea very much, I applied for a job as a sailor. Unexpectedly, I ended up not having any relationship with the doctor and became a doctor on the ship.
"Boss, don't worry. This Taoist priest is just seasick. He will be fine after a few days of rest. I will prescribe some medicine to make him feel more comfortable."
"seasick?"
"Maybe the boat was too rocky last night. It's normal for people with less adaptable bodies to get seasick."
"But why don't I get seasick?"
"Boss, you are relatively young, and..."
The accompanying doctor looked at Ge Xiaohua's tendons, which were as solid and strong as bronze, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Brother Mo, you can rest in peace." Ge Xiaohua said some words of relief. Seeing that Zizhen was suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, he also blamed himself. He should not have been allowed to go to sea with him in the first place. After all, people's physiques are different.
, some people are born with a fear of heights, seasickness, and motion sickness are all normal phenomena. They don’t notice it at first, but when the fishing boat produces violent vibrations, it is the limit of what one can endure, and it is normal for physical problems to occur.
Ge Xiaohua asked the ship's doctor to prescribe medicine, and considered whether to stop the fishing at night first? However, the crew of the Xuanwu would definitely understand that they would delay work for one person, and they could only rely on Zhenren to take a good rest.
It should be better if you slow down for a while, after all, you have real skills.
At night, in the cab, Yuan Zhiming held a telescope to check the situation of the fish, and directed the first mate and second mate to work.
"Turn on the left side light!"
"Bang bang!" All the big light bulbs on the left side of the Xuanwu were turned on. Each light bulb had thousands of watts. The orange light instantly lit up the sea surface. Basically, the entire left side was lit up.
Most fish have phototaxis, so fishermen take advantage of this principle and use lights to gather fish.
"Load the net!" The mechanized high-end fishing boats do not require manual labor at all, which reduces the effort of personnel and can better cope with the next situation.
Yuan Zhiming looked at the situation on the sea surface. Groups of golden yellow croakers were all attracted. They were in a curious state. After the fishing net was lowered, he used the movement of the fishing boat to move to the other side.
"Turn off the light on the left!" The sea surface was as bright as day. After the lights were turned off, it became dark for an instant, with only the noise of the fishing boat engine and the sound of bubbles produced by small yellow croakers surfacing.
"Open on the right!"
"Pop!"
The decoy light on the right was turned on, and the small yellow croakers that were about to disperse were attracted to the Xuanwu again, following the rhythm of the captain Yuan Zhiming.
Ge Xiaohua has been observing and guessing the reason why Yuan Zhiming did this. He couldn't help but admire him. If he lowered the net from the beginning, the harvest might not be very big, attracting at most a few tons of small yellow croaker. However, by adopting a stay-at-home approach, this fishery can be maximized.
All the small yellow croakers were attracted.
Moreover, the fishing net used by the Xuanwu has relatively large holes, so the fish caught are relatively large small yellow croakers, and the juvenile ones will not be caught, so that they will not be "caught with one net". This is what professional fishermen should do. If you use small holes
Although fishing nets seem to catch more fish, they actually destroy marine resources. We still need to make rational use of fishery resources. It is not necessary to strike with one net. This is why fishing nets with small holes are called "extreme nets".
