Chapter 40 Go ashore, go ashore【Please recommend, recommend】
After leaving the reef area, the sea calmed down.
Yang Xun, He Fei and the others prepared the fishing rods, Chen Yuan came to sail the boat... Lin Xinhai returned to the cabin to sleep.
Lin Xinhai got up very early in the morning, and it is not easy to stay up until now.
At this time, trolling costs 800 yuan per hour, and two poles cost 1,600 yuan. The boat speed is 8-20 knots, and the fuel consumption per hour should be about 40 liters.
No matter if Yang Xun and the others had booked the fishing spot, no matter whether they caught fish or not, Chen Yuan and the others would not lose money... and they could earn more than a thousand an hour.
The probability of catching tuna while trolling is very small in this season. If you are lucky, the probability of catching swordfish is higher than that of tuna.
There are many species that can be trolled in this area, such as Zhang Hong...
If they catch a big octopus, they will not lose money and still make some profit. But if they catch other fish, such as sea wolf, ghost head knife, GT, etc., they will probably lose money.
The speed of the boat is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and the trolling bait will flip up and down in the water, attracting attacks from predatory fish.
After running for more than ten minutes, He Fei's pole bent sharply: "Master Chen, we caught a fish."
Chen Yuan slowed down the boat and stopped: "Is it big?"
"It doesn't feel very big." He Fei used the electric wheel and quickly pulled back the fishing line: "One big mackerel."
"Halfway ashore." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Why isn't it a big fish?" He Fei stepped on the fish's head and took off the hook.
"You think you are me." Yang Xun said, "Only I can catch big fish..."
"You can catch big watermelons."
An hour passed quickly, and the rest of the time was very quiet, and there were no more fish.
This is normal. This is the deep water area of the continental shelf. If the fish are... they should be big fish, like tuna, swordfish and the like.
However, there are not many of these areas in this sea area.
One hour and twenty minutes passed, and Zhou Sheng asked: "It's been an hour, are you still fishing?"
"No more fishing." Yang Xun waved his hand: "I feel like I have run out of luck."
"Fishing for another hour." He Fei said.
"I'll drag a pole too..." Zhang Cheng came out and said.
"How is Meng Jianshan doing?" Chen Yuan asked.
"Asleep." Zhang Cheng said.
"You won't get seasick when you fall asleep." Zhou Sheng said with a smile.
Zhang Chengcheng used Yang Xun's fishing rod, and after they checked the trolling bait, Chen Yuan continued to sail...
I don’t know how to describe Zhang Cheng’s luck today.
Say he was unlucky, but he was hit by another dog tooth. Say he was lucky, but half of the tooth was taken away by a shark.
Zhou Sheng took out the beer and said, "These are the only ones left, one can for each person."
"Boss Zhou is grand." He Fei said with a smile.
"Are you ashore?" Chen Yuan took the beer and looked at He Fei and said.
"Yang Xun and I caught equally. We both landed on the first day..." He Fei said with a smile.
Yang Xun nodded: "It was really fun to go out this time. I caught the first yellowfin tuna in my life, and it was a big yellowfin tuna."
"There are flying fish..." Zhou Sheng pointed to the sea: "Hurry up and open the fish detector and take a look."
Chen Yuan didn't even have time to open his beer and opened the fish detector screen. There weren't many fish on the screen.
"Go and have a look over there..." Zhou Sheng pointed to the south.
Chen Yuan nodded and turned...
There are not many fish on the fish finder.
Zhou Sheng just saw a few flying fish jumping out of the sea, those few...
"How come there are so few flying fish flying in groups?" Zhou Sheng was puzzled.
"You must have gotten separated from the school of fish." Chen Yuan smiled and gave up the driving seat. He went to the bow of the ship to observe the sea.
The water here is so deep that fish detectors can no longer reach the bottom of the sea. In this case, the water depth is at least 500 meters...
In other words, they are on the outside of the continental shelf slope.
The vast sea, the sky is like a dome, the sea is like a circle, and it seems that you can see the curved surface...
There are no ships in sight.
Chen Yuan stood at the bow of the ship for more than ten minutes, and the sea was still very calm, so he went back to the back deck: "Back to the Shenhu sea area."
"No fish?"
Chen Yuan shook his head: "I didn't see any movement..."
When we arrived near the Shenhu Sea Area, another hour passed.
It was getting late, so Zhang Cheng said, "It's been an hour and there hasn't been any movement. My luck has run out."
"It's okay. I'll give you another half an hour. I'll collect it at the place where I'll spend the night..." Before Zhou Sheng could finish his words, Zhang Cheng's fishing rod bowed: "I caught a fish."
Zhang Cheng turned around, his spirit suddenly shaken: "My luck has come, it must be a big fish, I want to land."
Chen Yuan stopped the boat and waited for Zhang Cheng to close the pole...
"It's a big fish." Zhang Cheng became excited again, and the electric wheel made a labored sound, which was so pleasant to the ears at this time.
He Fei scratched his head and quickly retracted the fishing line: "Go ashore...go ashore. Bring me a bluefin tuna." Zhang Cheng shouted loudly.
Zhou Sheng took out a cigarette and gave it to He Fei. Yang Xun and the others handed one to Chen Yuan. They lit it and laughed: "Have you ever caught bluefin tuna?"
"No." Yang Xun said: "What's it like to catch bluefin tuna...compared with yellowfin tuna?"
"The largest bluefin tuna I have ever caught weighs more than 400 kilograms, which is much larger than the big yellow flag Chen Yuan caught yesterday." Zhou Sheng began to brag about the bluefin tuna he caught again.
"Where did you catch it?" He Fei asked.
"Near the New Zealand side..."
Zhang Cheng's fish had a lot of strength, but it was not so strong that the electric wheel could not retrieve it. The fishing line was retrieved in a few minutes, and a big red seal said: "Come here and help me, don't let the bandits rob you again."
Zhou Sheng used an iron hook to hook the tail of the fish and lifted it up with all his strength.
"This big red fish is quite strong... This fish must be over one meter long. Can it be sold for 100 kilograms?" Zhang Cheng asked.
"The quality is average..." He Fei said: "It's about the same as the one I have."
"That's okay... we're almost ashore." He Fei said with a smile.
"Go ahead and catch rocket squid at night, and you can still make some money back." Yang Xun said with a smile: "Master Chen and Master Zhou caught more than a hundred kilograms last night."
"There were less squid last night. Let's go there early and find a good seat..." Chen Yuan said.
"Come on tonight."
Squids will gather when they lay eggs. The closer the area is, the bigger the squids will be.
There were too many squid fishing boats last night.
If there were fewer boats, it would be easy for one person to catch more than a hundred kilograms a night, let alone two people.
Zhou Sheng helped bleed the fish caught by Zhang Cheng and then weighed it...
"That's right, 93 kilograms. At 50 yuan per kilogram, I got more than 4,000 yuan... and landed it." Zhou Sheng said.
"Nice." Zhang Cheng waved his fist and said, "Trolling is so exciting..."
There are more fish around the reef.
Waiting to lower the rod again, within a few minutes, He Fei hit a fish, a sea wolf... and then Zhang Cheng hit another one...
Coming to the reef area, there is a "concave" position on the seabed. The surrounding water depth is 30-55 meters. The deepest point in the center is 75 meters...
This grooved sea area is relatively large, covering two to three square kilometers. This is the favorite place for squid.
There was already a fishing boat in the central area where Chen Yuan and the others came. Chen Yuan drove the fishing boat over and stopped more than a hundred meters away.
