Chen Yuan and the others continued to bite the fish, waiting for Lin Xinhai and the others to finish setting the hooks, and then stopped the boat to cook noodles.
With a fish finder, you can accurately locate the water layer where the tuna is and place the hook accurately.
The tuna is full, so the desire to eat is not very high. However, when faced with the food right in front of you, there is always a point where you can't control your mouth and want to take a bite.
Here, Chen Yuan marked the number 18.
There are many fish at point 18, and it will take several days for two fishing boats to operate here. There is no rush to find fish now.
After dinner, Chen Yuan and the others continued to chase the tuna.
Tuna are wandering in this large sea area, which is a good thing. Chen Yuan and the others continue to follow them just to be safe.
If the tuna school runs away, you can know its approximate whereabouts and you can still find them in the future.
There are about 150 tuna now. As time goes by, the number of tuna coming in will increase.
"No need. Take a rest for a while." Chen Yuan said.
"No need." Chen Yuandao said: "When it gets dark, we will drive the fishing boat to the center of the marking point and turn on the fish luring lights... From behind, there will be nothing for us to do."
"The hook is finished, guess how many tuna were caught."
"Yes... we also have bean sprouts, potatoes, onions, and grouper maw. Bring them over and start cooking?"
Listening to Lin Xinhai's tone, you can tell that the harvest is not bad.
"50." Chen Yuandao.
"Hurry up and make a lot of money together," Lin Xinhai said.
"I'm starting to retrieve the hooks now, and you guys continue to bite the fish."
"Okay. But our frozen fishing boat is here, help us fill the frozen transport boat first." Lin Xinhai said with a smile: "The tuna will be paired with some bonito hooks later, and the cabin should be full soon."
Gao He smiled and said: "Okay. By the way, when the fishing season is over, my boat will return to China. At that time, I want to carry some fish back and sell them myself. Of course, I should give you a commission, right?"
It will be less."
In the vast sea, Chen Yuan went out of the cabin, lit a cigarette and blew in the sea breeze.
Like Chen Yuan's Dabai, there are four people on the boat, not to mention the salary. In violent mode, the fuel consumption for a day can catch up with the fuel consumption of a fishing boat.
"Take a guess."
Almost as calculated, I finished collecting the fishhook at four o'clock in the afternoon.
In the evening, the peak time for tuna to feed. You have to wait for a while before reeling in the rope...
"What are you doing?" Chen Yuan turned around.
"Okay." Gao He smiled in the cab and fished with Lin Xinhai and the others. To be honest, it was comfortable.
"Chen Yuan, Zhou Sheng, do you have any celery on the ship?"
Put four ropes at once. Everyone is familiar with the operation of longline fishing, it is very simple.
Chen Yuan said: "Okay, let's go get some nice goods and bring them back."
"It should be. There are still twenty days left, let's work harder." Lin Xinhai said, starting the fishing boat, came to the front of Chen Yuan and the others and started to put the rope.
Gao He's fishing boat didn't know when it came over. It was several kilometers away from the Big Fish and they were setting fish hooks.
"Doesn't that mean we can play for several more days?" Zhou Sheng said with a smile.
Chen Yuan was in a daze when Zhou Sheng shouted: "Brother-in-law...brother-in-law."
Lin Xinhai also said 'hmm': "Our rope has 7,000 hooks, and the fish caught are quite good. And most of them are yellowfin tuna, which are quite big. There are several individuals weighing more than 200 kilograms."
."
"How was the fish catch last night?" After dinner, Chen Yuan and the others took over the cab.
Put two ropes on the big fish, one long and one short.
"It's quite comfortable." Zhou Sheng lit the cigarette and took a puff.
"Why don't you wait until night to collect the fishhook?" Gao He asked.
Counting the hooks collected yesterday afternoon, there were more than 300 tuna. Such catches are quite a lot, and there are still many fish gathering in this sea area...
"More than two hundred. There are still a lot of tuna here, and the tuna team is still growing." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"This fish can be caught. The long rope will be loaded at night. I estimate that there are at least two hundred tuna." Gao He said.
"It's pretty good." Gao congratulated, "It's daytime now, and the time to set the hook is not long. Besides, the tuna just had a meal yesterday, so the hook bite rate won't be too high."
Whether you can have a small explosion depends on the weather in the next few days. If the weather is good and there are no major changes, the tuna will usually not go far... then you will make a fortune.
Lin Xinhai made a rough estimate and found that there were at least two thousand tuna here.
Put it in a roundabout way.
"How about you go help on the fishing boat?"
"Collect a short rope and then release it." Lin Xinhai said: "It will take more than three hours to collect the short rope, and then release it after collecting it. You can't leave it idle, right?"
"I didn't look at the fish during the freezing period. I heard from the fourth child that there were nearly 300 tuna. There were also some other fish..." Lin Xinhai said.
"Let's go together." Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Yuan: "You go, I will go."
"What's the depth?"
Chen Yuan smiled and went to help on the fishing boat, which meant working the night shift. But after that, Chen Yuan and the others still had to look for fish. If the biological clock was messed up, it would happen.
160,000 meters of rope and about 15,000 fishhooks.
After the long rope was released, it was past eleven o'clock. Lin Xinhai contacted Chen Yuan: "Are there two hundred fish schools you are chasing?"
Chen Yuan and the others looked at the Big Fish from a distance...
"exist."
75,000 meters of rope, about 7,000 fish hooks. This rope is all tuna fish hooks, and the fishing depth is 50 meters to 170 meters...
Diesel is expensive, especially at sea.
When it got dark, Chen Yuan and the others went to the center of the mark, turned on the fish luring lights, and gathered fish.
The long one is 160,000 meters and the short one is 75,000 meters.
Chen Yuan and the others continued to bite the fish, while Lin Xinhai was retracting the hook.
After the Big Fish put out the rope, the sun had already set, and the fishing boat stopped and started cooking dinner.
Lin Xinhai laughed and said: "There are 45 tuna, 2 marlin, a swordfish, and a few sea wolves."
"Then I'll also close the fishhook and put in a rope..."
The sun is setting again.
The trouble with longline fishing is calculating the depth at which to set the hook.
"Okay." Lin Xinhai said.
"A little less." Chen Yuan said.
"I'm going to start collecting the fishhooks here too," Gao He said.
Lin Xinhai and the others waited until nine o'clock in the evening before starting to collect the fishhook.
"30." Gao He said.
Gao He said ‘hmm’ and said, “It shouldn’t be a big problem.”
Zhou Sheng stopped the engine, came to Chen Yuan's side, and took a cigarette: "No need to chase fish?"
"Depth...100-160 meters."
"Okay. Let's have a few drinks in the evening." Gao He said with a smile.
Two fishing boats, two auxiliary boats...
Finding fish is really a technical job and very expensive.
After Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng woke up, the big fish began to set the hook again.
"Are we still going to bite that school of fish?"
"There aren't too many fish on your side. Wait a few more hours, then collect them all and come to our side. There are a lot of fish on our side."
"Chen Yuan, Lao Gao." Lin Xinhai shouted.
The Big Fish worked all night until dawn, and then the two ropes were retracted.
"Guess whether I will guess or not." Gao He's voice came out.
"Um."
"good."
"We caught 65 tuna yesterday, including a big-eyed fish weighing over 300 kilograms." Gao He said with a smile: "You may not believe it, but last night I also caught a grouper weighing nearly 300 kilograms.
fish."
Open the rope now, collect a rope at noon...and let it out again...whenever you have free time, it will be about seven to nine o'clock.
It’s good to get together when we have time. After all, we spend a lot of time at sea and it’s boring.
After chatting for a while, Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Sheng: "Making overseas goods."
"Let's go." Zhou Sheng suddenly became interested.
