Zhou Jianguo was very tired during this period. It was rare to have a rest today, so he relaxed and blew beer with Chen Yuan and the others.
I have to say that the potato and beef stew made by Zhou Sheng tastes really good.
The beef is almost stewed and melts in your mouth, with a strong beef aroma. The potatoes are also very delicious with the beef flavor.
Chen Yuan has always heard about the Phalanx.
Setting up this Phalanx is simple to say, but it requires careful consideration of all aspects. That is the channel planning within the Phalanx, and how to design the channels to facilitate the transportation of fish, thereby maximizing fuel savings.
When setting up this Phalanx, you must also consider ocean currents and sea conditions. If severe sea conditions occur, how should you respond?
Moreover, if Phalanx wants to achieve the effect of gathering fish, it is not just as simple as placing more floats.
Artificial fish aggregation devices are very simple. To put it bluntly, they create an environment on the sea where fish feel safe.
Choosing the location and how to place the Phalanx are very important. After all, it takes several days to set up a Phalanx. If it is not done well, if the Phalanx with six fishing boats participating together fails to gather fish, the loss will be huge.
.
"Is Phalanx easy to use?" Zhou Sheng asked doubtfully: "If Phalanx is easy to use, why don't other fishing boats use Phalanx?"
"Many people don't know how to use this thing." Zhou Jianguo said: "How can I put it, setting up Phalanx does not always bring big gains. It depends on luck... There are many fishing boats involved in this thing, so the investment is high and the risk is high.
Gao. I used to work for Rongyu Ocean Fisheries Company, and that company was all about longline fishing.
Boats mainly operate on the high seas, so they like to do this. Dongjiang fisheries are mostly seine boats, trawlers, and squid fishing boats. There are very few opportunities to set up a phalanx. If you set up a phalanx on the fish migration route,
If you find a good location, you will definitely have a good harvest. But if you don’t find a good location, you will easily lose money.”
Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan: "What do you think?"
"I want to catch tuna, big tuna." Chen Yuan said: "There are too many bonito here. If you set the hook normally, most of the fish you catch will be bonito. If you set up a phalanx to gather small fish, it will definitely attract
Come for big fish. If there are too many big fish, they will swarm. Now there is still time, we can try it for ten days and a half... If the fish catch is not satisfactory, we will change it."
The tuna migration usually takes place around August, but it is only early June now.
If the Phalanx effect is not ideal, it is still too late to make adjustments.
Chen Yuan and his fleet, Gao He, Zhao Bo...Chen Yuan and Gao He have already made their money back.
Zhao Bo and his fishing boat have almost made their money back.
The rest depends on Xu Laosan, Liu Laoer and Qian Degui.
There is another troublesome thing about arranging Phalanx, and that is the distribution of benefits.
To arrange a Phalanx to achieve the effect of gathering fish, just placing more floating balls is not enough. Several fishing boats are also needed to act as "driftwood".
Driftwood is the oldest marine fish aggregation device.
Driftwood is found on the surface of the ocean, and there are usually fish underneath it.
Or if a boat floats on the sea without power, fish will gather on and around the bottom of the boat over time. This is a fish aggregator...
After dinner, it was getting late.
Chen Yuan sent Zhou Jianguo back to the fishing boat and first contacted Lin Xinhai by phone: "Master."
"Here." Lin Xinhai answered the phone: "Why don't you use the radio to contact us?"
"We have something to talk about alone," Chen Yuandao said.
"What's going on?" Zhao Bo's voice came from the radio.
"You were just whispering." Gao He also said.
"What can't I know?" Qian Degui asked with a smile.
Lin Xinhai smiled awkwardly and said, "My wireless phone microphone is not turned off."
"Enter our private channel." Chen Yuan said, turning on the wireless microphone and said: "Master..."
"exist."
"Old Zhao."
"exist."
"Lao Gao."
"exist……"
"Xu San..."
Chen Yuan called out the names one by one and they were all there. Chen Yuan continued: "The fish situation in the north is not very ideal. There are mostly bonito and not much tuna."
Qian Degui said ‘hmm’: “We know.”
"Do you know about the Phalanx in longline fishing?" Chen Yuan asked.
"I've heard of it," Lin Xinhai said.
"What is Phalanx?" Luo Laosi asked.
"The Phalanx is the principle that is conducive to gathering fish. It gathers fish, which is also called rogue fishing." Qian Degui said: "What, you want to build a Phalanx?"
"Expert?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile.
"I used to be in the same fleet as my cousin Jianguo. Our fleet used to do..."
Chen Yuan and Qian Degui were not familiar with each other. However, Qian Degui and Zhou Jianguo were good buddies, and he also had a good relationship with Gao He.
"If I find a place in the flood waters and deploy a Phalanx formation, will I be able to start?" Chen Yuan asked.
Gao He and Zhao Hai have also heard of Phalanx, but have never operated it.
Qian Degui was silent for a while and said: "That thing is complicated to operate. And our equipment seems to be insufficient."
"Old Biao Jianguo collected two wild fish aggregation devices before. You can lend us those pontoons. Luo Hao has more than a thousand sensors there. I asked him to sell me a thousand, and it should be no problem."
Chen Yuan said.
"That's fine. However, the Phalanx must be positioned well. If the judgment is wrong, the loss will be huge." Qian Degui continued: "The fish density in this sea area is very good, and it is a bit risky to build a Phalanx.
"
"Listen to Chen Yuan." Gao He said: "What do you say, I will do it. Old Qian, please explain in detail how to set up the Phalanx."
"Do you really want to form a Phalanx? What if you don't choose the right position?"
"If you haven't chosen well, you haven't chosen well. There is only half a month left in the fishing season. Let's spend half a month. If the effect is not good, we will dismantle the Phalanx and work harder." Gao He said, picking up the satellite.
I called Qian Degui.
Qian Degui answered the phone and heard Gao He's voice, and left the driver's seat: "What are you doing?"
"The most important thing about Phalanx is choosing the right position, right?" Gao He asked.
"Yes. If you choose the location, you will have a good harvest. If you don't choose the location correctly, you will easily lose blood." Qian Degui said.
"You can't trust me, or what? I asked you to fish with us before..." Gao He clicked his tongue and said, "You have also been in Dongjiang Fishery for a year, so you should know what Chen Yuan is capable of.
.His ability to find fish is definitely second to none, even better than those who can find fish by smell."
"I feel like you're talking about him too mysteriously."
"It's not Xuanhu we are talking about, he is really Xuanhu. How many times have you seen thousands of tons of bluefin tuna on the net? You must have never seen it once. Chen Yuan has found three thousand-tons of bluefin tuna.
.And this time we went fishing with Chen Yuan and the others, and we have already made back our money in just over half a month." Gao congratulated: "Besides, what you want when you come out to fish is not to get rich. Try your luck.
."
Gao He also knew about the Phalanx, but had never participated in it. I heard Qian Degui say that if you find a good position, the rewards will be amazing.
Qian Degui heard what his old friend said and took a deep breath: "Okay. Give it a try."
