After giving He Fei and the others a clear explanation, Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng came to the fishing boat and counted the supplies again.
"Twenty lead pendants should be enough," Zhou Sheng said.
"Prepare some more." Chen Yuandao: "These lead pendants are a bit small."
These lead weights were all prepared by Lin Xinhai, 10 pieces weighing 350 grams, and 10 pieces weighing 500 grams.
When fishing in the open sea, the lead drop is too small to sink to the bottom.
When they came to the fishing tackle store, Chen Yuan and the others bought thirty more lead weights. The maximum weight was 4 kilograms, and there were also lead weights of 3 kilograms, 2 kilograms... etc., so they prepared some.
Then there are the fish hooks, including blow tube string hooks, deep sea string hooks... and prepare two more electric wheels for fishing rods.
Good electric wheels are not cheap.
The heavy boat fishing rod that Lin Xinhai gave to Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng before was equipped with an electric wheel for more than 8,000 yuan each.
Fish in the sea are very strong.
Not to mention the giant fish weighing hundreds of kilograms, but the fish weighing dozens of kilograms each. For many fishermen, it is not a small challenge if they do not use electric wheels. It is very labor-intensive...
As for a big fish weighing more than 100 kilograms, its power in the water is exaggerated. It feels like pulling a big fat pig. When you go fishing in the open sea, you basically go for the big fish. If the equipment is not good, it will easily cause trouble.
question.
After Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng confirmed the supplies again and again, they returned home.
He didn't go out for fun at night and went to bed early to rest. The next morning, Chen Yuan got up at five o'clock.
Chen Xin got up very early. After hearing the noise, she opened the door and looked. She saw that Chen Yuan was packing up and was about to go out. She said, "Brother, please pay attention to safety when going to sea."
"Yes." Chen Yuan smiled and nodded: "If the yacht class is ready, you and Zhou Lan will go and learn first."
"good."
"Haha." Chen Xin said with a smile: "Let's put it this way, it means we caught a lot of fish."
Chen Yuan nodded, put on his fishing gear bag with a smile: "I'm going out, take care of myself at home."
Chen Xin said "hmm" a few times and nodded.
I called Zhou Sheng when I went out. He also got up, and they met in the underground garage.
The young prostitute in Langli was sitting in Chen Yuan's car and hugged Chen Yuan's waist with both hands: "I'm so nervous..."
"What the hell." Chen Yuan said with a black line on his head, "Your stupid...hands."
"Hehehehe...you think, if the ship passengers can't make back the fares this time we go to sea, our brand will be ruined," Zhou Sheng said.
"If you can't make back the 6,000 yuan boat fee for three days and two nights, then stop operating a fishing boat and change it to a fishing boat." Chen Yuan said: "Call the master and ask him if he wants to eat.
steamed stuffed bun."
"OK." Zhou Sheng said, taking out his cell phone and calling Lin Xinhai: "Master... we are leaving. Can you eat buns... okay... I'll see you at the shipyard."
Chen Yuan and the others were passing through the lively streets of the town, so they bought breakfast.
When going to sea, it is best not to eat greasy food. Lin Xinhai ordered a few steamed buns and a cup of soy milk.
Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng were not seasick, but they liked meat, so they both had steamed buns.
Arrive at the shipyard.
Chen Yuan and the others thought they had arrived very early, but when they came over, Lin Xinhai was already there.
He Fei and Yang Xun also came over.
Chen Yuan went over to park the car, gave the car keys to Wang Peng, returned to the boat, looked at He Fei's luggage, and said with a smile: "Why did you bring so many things?"
"I brought a few boxes of Haidilao and instant noodles." Yang Xun said, "For extra meals at sea."
"This time I go out and the refrigerator will definitely explode." Zhou Sheng said with a smile.
Lin Xinhai is organizing supplies.
The cabin of the fishing boat is too small. This time I go out and spend a few days at sea to see the fish catch and the weather.
Anyway, according to the plan, the best case scenario is to stay for ten days.
Zhang Cheng drove over in a bright red Ford F150, parked the car, and Meng Jianshan was also on top... The two of them trotted over with their luggage.
"We're not late, right?" Zhang Cheng said.
"Not late, just right." Chen Yuan said with a smile: "Get on the boat and set off."
"okay."
Lin Xinhai has put away the anchor and is untying the rope.
Zhou Sheng went over to help, and it was done in a few moments... Let's set off.
Chen Yuan took He Fei and Zhang Cheng into the cabin: "We will go directly to the Shenhu Sea Area. It is a bit far, so everyone can have a sleep."
"Okay..." Zhang Cheng said.
He Fei and the others also nodded: "I'm not sleeping now. I want to go out to enjoy the sea breeze and watch the sunrise." He Fei said with a smile.
The fishing boat has a cockpit, a sleeping cabin, and a bathroom. The bathroom is small, but you can take a standing shower...
However, the water tank of the fishing boat is not large, only two hundred liters.
However, you can replenish fresh water when you arrive at the destination. But the price is a bit expensive...
The sleeping cabin is divided into upper and lower bunks. The lower bunk is a whole sleeping couch, which is relatively large and can accommodate four or five people. The upper bunk is also a whole sleeping couch, which is smaller in area and can sleep three or four people.
The bunk bed is a rock-paper-scissors game.
He Fei and the others slept on the upper bunk.
Zhang Cheng and the others slept on the lower bunk, occupying half of the seats. The remaining half was reserved for Chen Yuan and the others...
The fishing boat also has a cockpit with two benches. You can sleep on the bench at night, but it is not as comfortable as in the sleeping cabin.
This is the condition. There is no way, the fishing boat is only so big...
A big boat is as good as a big boat, and a small boat is as good as a small boat.
The price of a big boat is high, the cost of going to sea is also high, and the speed is still slow. If it is a 23-meter fishing boat and the boat speed wants to reach 30 knots, it is estimated that it will need two thousand-horsepower and high-speed engines. Two thousand-horsepower engines
Let’s not talk about the price of the engine. Just talk about fuel consumption... It is almost impossible to make back the cost of going out to sea by fishing.
The speed of Chen Yuan's fishing boat is not bad. Moreover, among fishing boats of the same size and at the same speed, the fuel consumption of Chen Yuan's fishing boat can be said to be quite low.
In the morning, the sun has not come out yet.
The sky is darker than the sea.
The fishing boat left the port and headed straight for the open sea.
If you are not in a hurry now, just cruise past.
There was a light breeze in the morning and the waves were small. Perhaps because of the heavy load, the boat's speed today only reached 19 and 20 knots, which is 37 kilometers per hour.
Chen Yuan looked at the chartplotter, then at the time...
It's 5:50 now... At this rate, it will be about two o'clock when we arrive at the Divine Fox Sea Area.
When the tide is high, the boat speed will be slower.
"What time is the seventh tide?" He Fei came over.
"It's four o'clock in the afternoon. We can still find a good fishing spot when we arrive at the Shenhu Sea Area..." Chen Yuan said, taking Zhou Sheng's bag, which contained buns and steamed buns: "Have you had breakfast?"
"I've eaten." He Fei and Yang Xun said.
Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Cheng and the others, who waved their hands and said, "Have some for breakfast."
Meng Jianshan took out the seasickness medicine and took one pill with mineral water. Zhang Cheng also took one pill: "Do you want seasickness medicine?" Meng Jianshan said.
Zhou Sheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't go there and make a nest."
"I took seasickness medicine just in case, but I don't get seasick," Meng Jianshan said.
Zhang Cheng and the others also smiled...
"Master, have something to eat." Chen Yuan handed Lin Xinhai steamed buns and mineral water.
"If we are not in a hurry, we will run over slowly." Lin Xinhai said, "You have to catch the tide to fish anyway."
"Yeah." Chen Yuan nodded and returned the backpack to Zhou Sheng.
Actually, when fishing in the open sea... the impact of tide on fishing is not as great as that of inshore. However, on the reef, when the tide is 70% to 30%, fish are indeed more likely to open their mouths.
