"Brother-in-law, do you want to go fishing?" Lin Xiaolin saw Ye Mo and said with a smile.
"Go ahead." Ye Mo said.
"You won't go to work tomorrow?" Lin Xiaomian asked.
"I will be threshing millet at home tomorrow. Can you come over and help me thresh the millet?" Lin Xiaolin said with a smile.
"It's enough for me to help boil water and cook, but I won't go threshing millet." Lin Xiaomian shook his head vigorously and said to Ye Mo, "You can help my second uncle thresh millet tomorrow."
"Yeah." Ye Mo agreed.
"Threshing millet is very tiring, can my brother-in-law handle it?" Lin Xiaolin said with a smile.
"It's not a big problem." Ye Mo said with a smile.
When he arrived outside Lin Xiaolin's house, he went back to get a flashlight, a fishing gear bag, a few small plastic stools...
Lin Xiaomian also held a flashlight in her hand: "Shine it on the ground to make sure you don't step on the snake."
"Where are there so many snakes?"
"I used to go out with my dad to take photos of eels, and we often took photos of snakes."
The road is wide and spacious. Although there are some weeds, there are traces left by frequent walking.
The sky is getting dark soon.
Tonight is a crescent moon, and the stars are particularly bright.
When we came to the small river, there was a cement bridge.
On the left side of the bridge is Shuidangzi, which is more than one meter deep.
Sitting on the bridge and fishing.
Lin Xiaolin took out the fishing rod and arranged the line group.
Lin Xiaomian found mosquito coils in the fishing gear bag, ordered two plates, and said to Ye Mo: "The mosquitoes are particularly fierce at night. We will go back at ten o'clock after fishing."
"Yeah." Ye Mo nodded.
"It's almost nine o'clock. We have to fish until 11 o'clock at least." Lin Xiaolin said.
"Then you fish slowly by yourself. Ye Mo and I only caught ten o'clock." Lin Xiaomian took the fishing rod, found the earthworms from the plate, and hung the earthworms on the fishhook with a clip.
Lin Xiaomian often goes fishing with her, and her father.
"I haven't been fishing here for a long time. Are there many fish in there?" Lin Xiaomian asked.
"The water has just risen, so it should be quite a lot. I haven't been out fishing for several days." Lin Xiaolin said, "I heard Wang Rong said you were driving an excavator?"
"Yeah, Ye Mo's excavator."
“Isn’t it hard to drive an excavator?”
"A little bit, it's not too hard." Lin Xiaomian said, "What?"
"Just asking." Lin Xiaolin made another fishing rod and gave it to Ye Mo: "Have you ever fished before?"
"I've fished before." Ye Mo took the fishing rod and found the hook.
This is a double hook...
The last time Ye Mo went fishing, I don’t know how many years ago, he still used a chicken feather float...
Ye Mo also imitated the way Lin Xiaomian hung earthworms just now, picked up the clip and hung the earthworms on the fishhook.
In the past, when hanging earthworms, the earthworms were pinched into two pieces, threaded on the fishhook, and passed through the intestines. Just now I saw the way Lin Xiaomian hung the earthworms. The fishhook passed through the side of the earthworm...it was a winding hook.
Ye Mo had no interest in fishing and didn't want to get his hands dirty, so he used Lin Xiaomian's hooking method, which was simple.
After hanging the earthworms, throw them down and wait quietly.
The night light is beautiful and very bright.
Not long after throwing it down, the float moved, and Ye Mo lifted it up gently... It was obvious that there were small fishes, but when he lifted it up, there was nothing.
"There was a fish just now." It must have been Ye Mo's first time fishing. When he felt the bait biting the hook, he was quite excited: "There was a dragging feeling when I lifted it up."
"It should be Baitiao, don't make a fuss. There are a lot of Baitiao in the river," Lin Xiaomian said.
Bai Tiao is making trouble.
Throw it down and it will bite...
"It's so late, and there are still white strips." Lin Xiaolin also finished the fishing rod, hung the earthworms on it, and threw it away.
I go out to hang earthworms at night, mainly to catch yellow pepper and catfish.
Their hooks are also relatively large and can be hung with earthworms, so it is not easy to catch white stripes. Then they keep hitting empty rods...
Ye Mo's fishing rod and earthworms ate several of them.
"Wait a little longer, there won't be any more white bars in a while," Lin Xiaolin said.
"Hmm." Ye Mo said, "Can I catch white stripes?"
"I didn't bring a small sleeve hook." The fisherman came out to catch white stripes... He didn't even have the face to say it.
The worst option is to catch crucian carp.
However, crucian carp is not that easy to catch here, mainly because there are too many white stripes.
Lin Xiaomian looked at the float and swatted mosquitoes from time to time.
Ye Mo took out another plate, lit it, and put it next to Lin Xiaomian.
"Should Ranran and I have to wait until the mangoes and pomegranates are picked before we have work?" Lin Xiaomian asked.
Ye Mo nodded: "It's just time to rest."
“Mangoes won’t be picked until October?”
"Probably." Ye Mo nodded.
"After I finish threshing the millet here, I will go over and reclaim the wasteland in Gaoshanping." Lin Xiaomian said.
"Not in a hurry."
"It is estimated that it will take more than a month and two months to dig ditches and fertilize thousands of acres of orchards. I pick mangoes in October, and after the busy work is over, it will be December. I want to finish the work early and then rest." Lin Xiaomian said: "Ranran
He also said that I would like to go to the beach for vacation when I am done with my work."
"Going to Hainan?" Lin Xiaolin asked.
"Beihai, Weizhou Island, Hainan... all are fine. I haven't been to the beach yet. Second brother, have you been to the beach?"
"No." Lin Xiaolin shook his head.
"What about you?" Lin Xiaomian looked at Ye Mo.
“I’ve been to the seaside near Shenzhen and there’s not much to do.”
“The beach is not fun?”
"Well, I've never been to the beach. I've driven by the beach before, so I haven't gone to the beach specifically."
"You have been in Shenzhen for many years and have never gone to the beach specifically?"
Ye Mo shrugged: "I used to work every day. I rarely had a day off, so I wanted to sleep at home. I rarely went out to play." Ye Mo said, and the float that had not been moved for a long time suddenly turned dark...
Ye Mo quickly picked up a piece of yellow pepper that was struggling hard.
"Be careful, yellow pepper has thorns, and it will be very painful if you get stung." Lin Xiaolin said.
Lin Xiaomian helped Ye Mo use the flashlight, and Ye Mo carefully caught the fishhook.
Lin Xiaolin brought some water from a bucket and raised the yellow peppercorns.
The night is getting late and the temperature is getting cooler.
Baitiao stopped making noises, and yellow peppers, catfish, etc. began to come out and move around.
Ye Mo caught the first open-pole fish...
Immediately after, Lin Xiaolin and Lin Xiaomian also started to hit fish.
Lin Xiaomian caught a yellow catfish (yellow bonefish, yellow catfish), and Lin Xiaolin caught a slender native catfish.
"There are a lot of fish in the small river ditch." Ye Mo said.
"The water has just risen. There used to be many fish ponds here, but now they have been converted into rice fields, but fish have always been raised. There are still many abandoned paddy fields upstream. As long as the water rises, there will be a lot of fish in the river." Lin Xiaolin
Said. Now that electric fishing is banned, there are more fish in the river ditches.
There are only a few people fishing here, and they don't go out fishing every day.
There are white stripes, wheat ears, and ground tigers in the river ditch. There are so many of these three kinds of small miscellaneous fish that they are about to overflow. If they come out during the day, these three kinds of fish will basically catch the fish.
You can catch crucian carp, carp, yellow pepper and catfish at night.
Ye Mo's float was gently lighted again. Ye Mo quickly lifted it up and caught a crab...
