Chen Yuan and the others set the table, and first served the boiled fish reserved for Luo Laosi separately.
Zhou Sheng brought the beer and opened it, one for each person: "Jianguo gave me two boxes of beer. It's a foreign product. I don't know if it tastes good."
Lin Xinhai took a sip and nodded: "It should be from Australia. It has a strong malt aroma."
"How did you know it was from Australia?"
"I saw the goods that Zhou Jianguo bought at the port. Most of the beer there is produced in Australia." Lin Xinhai shrugged.
Zhou Sheng took the bottle and looked at it again and again, but couldn't figure out why.
"It's terrible to be uneducated," Chen Yuandao said.
"Which country's beer do you know?" Zhou Sheng rolled his eyes at Chen Yuan.
"It says, here..." Chen Yuan held a beer with the word 'New nd' in English on it: "Did you see it?"
"What's the meaning?"
"New Zealand." Chen Yuan gave a thumbs up.
"Do you still know English?" Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan as if he had discovered a new world.
Chen Yuan directly despised: "Have you not seen the New Zealand dollar? It also has N Z on it."
Zhou Sheng then took out his wallet, took out a New Zealand dollar, and compared it: "Hey, it's really true."
"Don't look at it...a bunch of illiterate people." Lin Xinhai took a sip of beer: "It doesn't matter where it's produced, as long as it tastes good."
Chen Yuan chuckled.
He Fei and Yang Xun also smiled and took a sip of beer.
"How do you like the taste of this fish?" Chen Yuan said.
"It's delicious." Lin Xinhai said, "But compared to the boiled fish cooked by your father-in-law, it's still a little less cooked."
"If it tastes good, you can eat more. If it doesn't, let us eat more." Chen Yuan stood up and brought a few cups over, poured the beer into the cup, and drank more than half of the cup in one gulp. It felt so good.
Chilled beer has a rich malty aroma.
This sea bream is too big to be used as boiled fish. The belly meat is not bad, but the back meat is garlic meat. But overall it is still very tender. In his personal opinion, it is better than the fish.
Silver carp is delicious. The most important thing is that it has few spines.
Lin Xinhai also poured wine and took a sip.
In the leisure area on the back deck, I was drinking beer while enjoying the sea breeze, and the fishing boat was shaking slightly.
Chen Yuan and the others have been out running for a day, and they can't be said to be tired. Now they have a rest, made a delicious meal, and drank some beer, which makes them feel very comfortable.
Chen Yuan ate a piece of fish belly and stretched out comfortably.
He Fei can now eat some spicy food, but he still can't stand the spicy taste of boiled fish. He doesn't even dip it in the water and just takes a breath from time to time.
Boiled fish is fragrant, spicy, spicy and delicious.
He Fei is not very good at eating spicy food and can't stop eating it.
"You two drink less beer." Lin Xinhai looked at He Fei and said, "You two should be on duty tonight."
He Feidao: "We are on duty."
"Drink one bottle at most." Yang Xun said.
"You still need to pay attention at night."
"Hey, hey, hey, Lao Hai, you got the reply." Luo Laosi's voice came from the intercom.
"Got it, what's the matter?" Lin Xinhai picked up the walkie-talkie.
"There are quite a lot of fish caught. I will give the fish to the nanny tomorrow morning, and the nanny will be able to return to the voyage."
Lin Xinhai said 'hmm': "The nanny can hold 370 tons of fish, not that much."
"Zhou Jianguo's place estimates that there should be eighty tons. We have quite a lot here, too, as well as those from Lao Zhao and Lao Gao." Luo Laosi said: "Total total, it is estimated to be three hundred tons.
"
"How are we going to do this?" Chen Yuan also picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "You just came here and you are going back?"
"It won't be so fast. The fish still needs to be gutted. We'll see what happens tomorrow."
"The nanny boat is too small." Luo Laosi said: "There are so many fish on this rope now, one after another, and they are quite big. I estimate that the nanny boat can be filled up in five days at most.
"
“It’s not like we catch so many fish every time we set the hook.”
I caught a lot of fish this time because I found schools of fish.
"Looking at it now, the second rope contains at least 40,000 to 50,000 fish, 70 to 80 percent of which are bonito. There is also bad news."
"What?"
"The fish cabin is full." Luo Laosi said.
Lin Xinhai's hand holding the wine glass shook slightly: "What did you say? Say it again."
"The fish cabin is almost full. The dry rope has been retracted less than half, and it feels like the fish cabin should be full if it is all retracted." Luo Laosi said.
Lin Xinhai finished the wine in his glass and looked at Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan also looked at him: "Do you want the cabin to be full?"
This is too exaggerated.
This is a longline fishing boat, not a seine boat.
In fact, it makes sense, after all, they put more than 90,000 fish hooks.
The first rope has 15,000 pieces, all of which are big hooks. About 4,000 of them should have been hit, and there are especially many big fish.
In the deep ocean and deep sea, a tuna fish hook can only be considered a big fish if it weighs hundreds of pounds. The first rope can catch dozens of tons of fish.
The second rope is used for fishing in shallow water, mainly bonito. Although there are few big fish, the catch rate is particularly high. After all, it is a fish in the water. Even if the hook is thrown empty, there will be fish biting the hook.
The second rope has nearly 70,000 fishhooks hanging on it. It still uses the mosquito-repellent type of fishing line, that is, it pays out the line in circles and circles along the fish school, and the line is put out more circuitously and more often when the fish group is moving forward.
hook.
It has high horsepower, fast speed, and is willful. You can put the rope wherever you want.
The fish hold of the Big Fish is 218 cubic meters. If it is fully filled and it needs to be easy to transport, it can hold about 170 tons of fish.
There are more than 90,000 fish hooks. Calculated at a fish catch rate of 35%, that is more than 30,000 fish.
Mainly bonito, and mostly larger bonito. White-scaled bonito can be as big as thirty or forty pounds, or even larger. It looks about the same size as a small tuna.
But on average they are not that big. Even if there are 30,000 bonitos weighing 10 kilograms each, they are 150 tons. There are also a lot of tuna.
It’s understandable that the fish tank can’t be loaded anymore, but it’s unexpected.
"Isn't it bad that the cabin exploded?" Chen Yuan took a sip of beer: "There is no fish gathering device, and fish schools are not often encountered."
"By the way, can I use a fish aggregator for longline fishing?" Luo Laosi asked.
"Longline fishing requires finding wild fish, so using fish aggregators is not very effective," Chen Yuandao said.
Luo Laosi said "hmm" and said: "There are many fish on this rope, one after another."
"The resources are good. Even if you don't find a school of fish, you can find a place where the ocean currents are opposite and get off the rope, and the harvest will usually not be too bad."
Chen Yuan and the others ate the meal for more than half an hour.
After eating, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng went to the fishing boat.
The previous arrangement was for a production team of 7 people, working in two shifts. Yesterday, Lin Xinhai called 6 people on the nanny, and now it is a team of 10 people.
There are two people on the fish harvesting team and one on the conveyor belt. The rest are in the processing workshop.
There is also a processing cart on the Little Nanny, but the processing workshop of the Big Fish ship is useless. When the fish comes into the processing workshop, the workers will load the fish onto the cart and send it to the fish hold.
Someone took ice cubes from the ice room and put them into the machine to crush them. One layer of ice and one layer of fish.
"Dad." Chen Yuan saw his father.
He didn't even know that his father was on the fishing boat. He had told him before that he would be responsible for the light work of the nanny.
"dad."
Zhou Sheng's father is also on the boat, and the two of them are breaking ice.
Father Chen and Father Zhou smiled and nodded when they saw them.
"We caught a lot of fish this time," Zhou's father said.
"They're probably some bonito, which are worthless." Zhou Sheng said, "Why did you come to work on the fishing boat?"
"It's boring to be on the nanny boat, but it's more fun to have fun on the fishing boat. There are bonitos everywhere, and there are a lot of tuna."
