Chapter nine hundred and twenty sixth steady stream of wealth
According to what Gao Qijing said, Chen Wenzhe directed the pilot and controlled the ship for about ten minutes.
The first fish this time was pulled to the side of the boat by Gao Qijing without any danger.
"I saw it, Captain, prepare your speargun. It's such a big fish, so beautiful!"
Gao Qijing said excitedly to Chen Wenzhe.
Although he likes fishing, he has never caught such a big fish in the open sea.
What's more, this fish is not only big, but also expensive!
We are all adults, and our hobbies are definitely not as important as eating.
As soon as Gao Qijing finished speaking, he turned his head and saw Chen Wenzhe standing next to him, and the old fishing gun in his hand had already flown out.
The fishing gun barely made any splash and accurately hit the front and back of the fish.
"Beautiful!" Gao Qijing couldn't help but praise.
With so many years of hands-on experience, if this was not a coincidence, a person with this level must have many years of fishing experience.
However, Chen Wenzhe has absolutely no experience.
However, he is a genius, and he is now very accepting of it. As long as it involves using his hands and brain, Chen Wenzhe can do it just by looking at it.
The spear penetrated the fish's back accurately. Chen Wenzhe tightened the tail rope and pulled the tuna toward the side of the boat.
Soon, the fish was pulled to the side of the boat.
Gao Qijing immediately picked up the lasso and put it on the tail.
Although it was their first time working together, the two of them moved in perfect harmony.
Opening the gate to tow the fish, Chen Wenzhe threw the spear, and in just five or six minutes, the bluefin tuna was dragged onto the boat.
"Haha, this fish weighs more than 400 kilograms!"
As soon as the fish got on the boat, the two people immediately started preparing to take care of the fish.
Throughout the ship, everyone else was in their places and did not move.
This time when we went to sea, all the crew members knew that it was mainly Chen Wenzhe who taught Gao Qijing how to fish.
Since that's the case, then all they have to do is watch.
Chen Wenzhe knew before that catching a tuna is only the first step, and the next step is even more important.
If you don't handle the tuna well, or you simply don't know how to handle it, then even if you catch bluefin tuna, you won't be able to sell it at a high price.
After catching the tuna, first make a cut at the base of the tail to bleed it.
If fish blood remains in the body of tuna, it will definitely seriously affect the taste of the fish.
Then on top of the fish head, the gills need to be taken out.
Next, remove the internal organs. By the time this series of actions is completed, the blood of the fish will have been almost drained.
The whole action was performed very smoothly by Gao Qijing, with almost no pauses in the middle. Once the blood of the fish on the deck was finished, the fish was processed.
Next, the two used the small crane on the boat to hold the fish by the tail and hoist the fish into the storage cabin.
Finally, the fish body was completely covered with ice, and this was the real completion of the work on the boat.
After all this is done, re-bait the fish and throw the fishing rod into the sea again.
Now that there are bluefin tuna found in this area, there can't be only one.
Besides, the brothers in the cabin are all watching to see if there are any fish!
With a fish as a guarantee, Gao Qijing felt a little more relaxed, and he happily moved his body.
A tuna weighing four hundred pounds is difficult for ordinary people to catch.
Gao Qijing is not young anymore. He is thirty-eight years old this year, and his physical fitness has begun to decline. Otherwise, he really doesn't want to really retire.
When it was hung up just now, the fish had been weighed, 450 kilograms, 225 kilograms.
Such a heavy bluefin tuna is already very small. Of course, among the bluefin tuna family, this is certainly not considered very big.
Bluefin tuna is a marine fish belonging to the genus Scombridae. Its scientific name is Atlantic bluefin tuna, also known as Atlantic bluefin tuna, northern bluefin tuna, etc. It is widely distributed in the temperate and tropical waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans.
This fish can reach a maximum length of 4.6 meters and a weight of 684 kilograms, which is more than 1,300 kilograms.
The one caught by Chen Wenzhe and the others was neither big nor small, so they could only be sold at the price of normal bluefin tuna.
Of course, the bluefin tuna weighing more than 450 pounds is not small, so the price is not cheap.
Bluefin tuna can be said to be the most commercially valuable fish in the world, and it is also a valuable marine economic fish. The retail price is generally 200 to 600 yuan per pound.
Specific prices vary depending on variety, specification, season, etc.
Now the bluefin tuna caught by Chen Wenzhe can be sold for at least 600 yuan per catty. In other words, this fish is worth at least 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.
This is because the meat quality of this fish is ordinary, and the reason why it can be sold at a high price is because they process it better in the later stage.
One fish costs two to three hundred thousand. This is easier than Chen Wenzhe picking up fish, and it is also more profitable.
This is why Chen Wenzhe was so happy when he found out that he could learn the technique of fishing for bluefin tuna.
Salvaging shipwrecks, picking up leaks, and even fishing are not as exciting as fishing for bluefin tuna!
The main thing is that as long as you want to catch this thing, you have a great chance of catching it.
It doesn't have to be like salvaging sunken ships and picking up leaks. Although you can get rich once you encounter it, it is really difficult to encounter an opportunity once.
"How much can this fish be sold for?" Gao Qijing asked Chen Wenzhe in disbelief.
"It can be sold for at least more than 200,000 yuan." Chen Wenzhe said with certainty.
"So expensive? If so, we might as well do something big. It's a pity to do it in such a small way now!" Gao Qijing immediately suggested.
Chen Wenzhe shook his head. If the next longline fishing catches too many bluefin tuna, it will be too tiring.
This time he came out mainly for fun, not for work.
Besides, the bluefin tuna here will not escape. This time, just make sure there are bluefin tuna here.
Although these fish are constantly migrating, they will still come back here in certain seasons.
Why does no one want to share such an important fishing ground?
This is the reason. As long as you have some skills and know where and when bluefin tuna is found every year, you will almost have a steady stream of wealth.
Compared with the hard work of fishing with a trawler, the process of catching bluefin tuna is much simpler, and there is no need to travel much, and there is no need to try your luck.
Just like now, just a few minutes later, Chen Wenzhe heard the beeping sound from the fish finder again.
In other words, if another fish reaches a few meters below the boat, it depends on luck whether it bites the hook or not.
"Another fish is coming!"
As soon as he heard the voice here, Chen Wenzhe ended the topic decisively.
If you haven't learned to walk and want to run, you'd better be steady!
If you go longline fishing and catch a group of bluefin tuna all at once, even if there are more than a dozen of them, it will not be easy to handle them. The most important thing is that there is no room to put them on the boat.
