Waiting for the Big Fish to arrive, Chen Yuan drove the boat and went to pick up He Fei and Yang Xun...
"It's more comfortable to work on Dabai." Yang Xun got on the boat and handed Chen Yuan a cigarette.
Chen Yuan smiled and lit his cigarette: "On the Big Fish, you should work the night shift."
"Working the night shift." He Fei said, "Processing fish in the processing room."
After Chen Yuan finished smoking, he went back to sleep.
It was after eight o'clock the next morning when I woke up. Zhou Sheng went to bed early, got up early, and cooked a seafood noodle...
Chen Yuan especially didn't like seafood noodles because he ate them often. He took a few bites casually, filled his stomach, and returned to the cockpit to open the topic: "Master."
"exist."
"How much diesel is on board."
Dabai's speed is twice that of Big Fish, but the actual distance is not very far. It only takes an hour to get there...
Chen Yuan has a black streak on his head.
To the south, the ocean current map 20 days ago has changed a lot. Many of the ocean current intersection locations have deviated, and some ocean current intersection points have even disappeared.
"You are not particular about anything." Gao He said with a smile.
They are at Marking Point No. 9, and the fishing boat has a fish finder. There are indeed a lot of fish at this location.
Yang Xun and the others had just fallen asleep when they lay down. When the fishing boat was in violent mode, they suddenly woke up and looked at each other.
After deciding on a location, we started making lunch.
Lin Xinhai burst into laughter: "You four men are on the boat, and it's somewhat inappropriate to get into this..."
We have reached punctuation point 9.
"The diesel here is also full." Gao congratulated: "There is not much time left, so don't save oil, use full power, and get our fishing boats working as soon as possible."
"Don't worry. You can get half of the rope back first. It's still early and Chen Yuan and the others can still find fish efficiently. In the future, we may have to work alone, one boat will occupy one mark." Lin Xinhai
explain.
Punctuation 3, general.
“I mainly put tuna hooks here,” Lin Xinhai said.
Zhou Sheng yelled: "I can't do anything with you two."
"The direction of the seabirds seems to be quite smooth." Chen Yuan said: "Then we will continue to look at the landmarks. If we are lucky, we can still see the group of seabirds."
"No chasing." Gao congratulated.
The fishing boats of Big Fish and Gao He went south along the center line, and then walked in a straight line, very close.
Since there is no need to save fuel, instead of scouting for fish in marked waters, I keep cruising at high speed when I'm on my way.
The speed of the fishing boat increased instantly and it started the most violent mode.
The seabirds were not very far away, and Zhou Sheng could vaguely see them: "Aren't you going to mark No. 16?"
The horsepower is fully activated, the three engines rotate at high speeds, and the violent sound is exciting.
"Set the boat, turn on the power, and make waves."
"exist."
"For longline fishing, we mainly fish for tuna and big fish. We chase seabirds, which mostly prey on small fish."
Chasing seabirds, this is the ocean...
"If you run fast, you eat meat. If you run slow, you can only drink soup."
It's past eleven o'clock.
This sea area is hedged by strong currents, and the fish conditions are good. The number of tuna is also considerable.
"Okay." Chen Yuan held the stainless steel basin: "Let's finish our meal, take a rest and continue looking for fish."
"You run slower and wait for me." Gao He said.
Chen Yuan said loudly: "Punctuation 9, medium. Come over quickly and set the hook."
"It's over."
After reporting the location, Zhou Sheng started the fishing boat and continued to the next marking point.
Setting the hook takes time.
Chen Yuan and the others did not go in a straight line to find fish. They went wherever the ocean currents converged.
However, they have drone remote sensing fish detectors with a large detection range.
Followed by punctuation mark 5, normal.
Then came punctuation point 6, ten minutes later, the fish condition was...poor.
"What are you doing?" Yang Xun asked.
"Still calculating, wait." Zhou Sheng said.
"We saw a group of seabirds, and there were quite a lot of them. Do you think I should chase the seabirds?" Chen Yuan asked.
"good."
Gao He also burst into laughter.
It was past three o'clock in the afternoon, almost four o'clock, and the Big Fish hadn't finished setting the hook yet. Chen Yuan made another discovery...
"This punctuation mark is only medium, not particularly large. But I just looked at it and found that there are big fish, and it is worth taking the bait."
"Okay. Then we'll get started."
But for sleepy people, the sound is too noisy.
"What are you doing?"
Punctuation point 4 is an hour away from punctuation point 3. After completing the investigation quickly, Chen Yuan wrote the word "bad"...
"How about I rush to the 15th mark?" Gao He said.
It's already number 15.
"Okay." Lin Xinhai said.
"Just put a rope. When the rope is finished, cut the rope, half a boat..." Chen Yuan said.
"Full of diesel."
"OK."
"There are tuna in the fish school..."
"Okay." Zhou Sheng started the fishing boat and pushed the throttle to the top.
The Big Fish is already setting the hook. This time, the drift hook is directly lowered with just a rope. The Big Fish hook is even faster. A 150,000-meter rope, I estimate, will take 4 hours...
"Chase." Lin Xinhai said.
"Have you finished setting the fishhook?"
Chen Yuan scratched his head, told Zhou Sheng to stop the ship, took back the drone, came to the cockpit and turned on the microphone: "Master, Lao Gao."
"go."
"It's too much trouble."
The violent mode only lasted for more than ten minutes, and then it switched to high-speed cruising, with a speed of 44 knots.
"How about punctuation 9?" Lin Xinhai asked.
Zhou Sheng sent out the coordinates of punctuation point 9 and said, "Let's continue looking for fish."
"There are seabirds at 2 o'clock," Chen Yuandao said.
He said he would not chase birds, but he didn't find any at the 16th mark. When he arrived at the 17th mark, Chen Yuan saw a group of seabirds on the sea surface and diving into the sea from time to time.
After the fishing boat ran away for a while, Chen Yuan saw a seabird in the sky: "Zhou Sheng."
"How do you say it?" Lin Xinhai asked.
Gao He added: "Ours is a longline fishing boat, not a seine boat. What kind of seabirds are we chasing?"
If you are chasing seabirds, you will most likely encounter a school of fish in the water. If it is a purse seine boat, then it will definitely be chasing seabirds. But they are longlining...
Punctuation 7, general.
"Are there many fish marked nine?"
"have no idea……"
Lin Xinhai and Gao He chased Chen Yuan and the others, asking about Zhou Sheng's situation from time to time.
In this mode, the fuel consumption is 300 liters per hour, but it runs fast... It took only a few dozen minutes for Chen Yuan and the others to arrive at number 3, slow down, launch the drone... and then use Dabai's fish detector to detect the number of tuna.
.
"Another medium punctuation point was found." Chen Yuan shouted on the radio.
"Here we come." Lin Xinhai shouted.
Gao He said ‘hmm’: “Thank you very much.”
Chen Yuan marked all the places where ocean currents converged with numbers.
After dinner, the big fish came over and started setting the hook.
Chen Yuan and the others finished their meal and continued looking for fish.
It was still far away, but Chen Yuan could see it very clearly.
"There are schools of fish in the direction of 11:30," Chen Yuan shouted.
"Where?" Zhou Sheng stood up and saw nothing.
"In the direction of 11:30, just follow my instructions and go there. Hurry."
