Chapter 63 Harvest

Chapter 63 Harvest

The tide is coming.

Seventh tide, you can see the swell, the sea water is moving.

The fishing boat with its stabilizer on began to shake.

Chen Xin saw that Chen Yuan had caught three fish with one pole. She felt very lackluster while holding the pole.

Seeing Chen Yuan untie the fish and hang the bait again, Chen Xin said: "Give me a try."

Chen Yuan handed over the fishing rod with a smile, took Chen Xin's raft fishing rod, and retracted the fishing line... He used the raft fishing rod as a lure rod, flicked it hard, and with a 'swish' sound, the artificial bait flew out three times.

Forty meters.

The rod of the raft fishing rod is a little softer, the wire loops are many and small, and the casting distance is not as good as that of the lure rod. That is to say, the fake bait used is heavier to be able to cast that far.

Chen Yuan lifted the pole, took in some lines, and lifted the pole again...

The first rod was empty, so Chen Yuan changed it to a larger fake bait and shot it out again.

This time, after only two pulls, the fishing rod suddenly sank, the fish was hit, and the fishing rod bowed sharply...

Chen Xin's eyes widened. She looked at Chen Yuan and muttered: "Be careful, my fishing rod costs hundreds of dollars."

"There are so many fishing rods at home, and you still buy them."

"This is my raft fishing rod."

"People are very good at cooking, and I bought a lot of poles."

Chen Xin made a face at Chen Yuan, and the rod in front of her also moved. The fishing rod was fixed on the rack beside the boat, so she hugged the fishing rod and started to retrieve the line...

During this time, Chen Xin was addicted to fishing. Every day when he went home, he would watch videos of sea fishing and raft fishing. As a fisherman, it doesn’t matter whether the technique is important or not. Fishing gear is definitely indispensable.

In just over a month since she started fishing, she has bought seven poles.

The rod of the raft fishing rod is not particularly soft, but it is much softer than the lure rod and the boat fishing rod. Catching big fish with this kind of rod requires pulling, which consumes the strength of the fish...

Chen Xin took back the fishing line, while Chen Yuan's fishing line was only half taken up.

"Four fish..." Chen Xin said: "Are these snappers?"

"Pink snapper."

The pink sea bream has two long whiskers on its back. The scientific name should be called sea bream two long acanthus...

The bigger ones weigh close to 1 kilogram. Most of the ones caught this time were less than half a kilogram...

It’s not bad to catch several fish with one rod.

After Chen Xin put away the pole, Chen Yuan pulled faster and the fish came out of the water. Chen Xin took the net and helped Chen Yuan catch the fish.

"The mackerel is so big," Chen Xin shouted.

Zhou Sheng turned around and took a look: "This kind of mackerel can grow to twenty or thirty pounds."

The Spanish mackerel caught by Chen Yuan weighed 5-7 kilograms. In terms of size, it was pretty good.

Chen Yuan untied the fish, put it in the refrigerator, and continued smoking.

Then three rods missed, and the fourth rod hit a fish.

"So strong." Chen Yuan controlled the fishing rod.

Chen Xin’s pole is somewhat reluctant to be used for fishing on a boat.

The fishing rod was bent straight and it felt like it was going to explode at any moment. The main line she used was not big, a size 1.5 main line...

When the fish is powerful, Chen Yuan doesn't dare to use too much force.

Chen Yuan pulled a fish for seven or eight minutes and finally pulled it to the side of the boat.

Chen Xin helped copy it up: "Tuna!"

Zhou Sheng turned around and took a look, laughing like a goose.

Chen Yuan was right as he said, you can catch tuna here... but it's just a small tuna.

This is the smallest fish among the tuna species, also called bomb fish, tobacco fish, and small tuna.

Chen Yuan took out a knife, bled the fish, threw it into the refrigerator, and continued to draw the rod.

More than half an hour passed.

The four fishing poles at the bottom finally started to move.

The bell on the pole placed on the right side of the bow rang.

"I caught a fish, it's the fishing rod on the bow of the boat." Chen Yuan held the fishing rod and couldn't move.

Zhou Sheng quickly ran over and pressed the close button.

The fishing line is tight, the fishing rod is bent, and a big fish...

Chen Yuan quickly retracted the fishing line, put down the fishing rod, and went to help.

With the help of Chen Yuan, Zhou Sheng took the fishing rod off the holder and hugged the fishing rod with both hands: "Big fish."

"Estimated weight?"

"More than thirty kilograms." Zhou Sheng became excited.

"Go back invigorated," Chen Yuan said.

"OK."

"Be careful, don't run away."

Zhou Sheng switched to manual and held the fishing rod, always maintaining a certain tension and keeping the fishing line tight.

This fish is not very big to Chen Yuan and others.

Zhou Sheng slipped the fish while Chen Yuan went to the back deck to prepare the fish box.

They brought out three large fish boxes, and Chen Yuan cleaned out one of the boxes containing small miscellaneous fish.

The little trash fish don't deserve to go back alive, so throw them all in the refrigerator.

It was almost time, so Chen Yuan put away the other fishing rods and prepared to go back.

Almost twenty minutes passed, and Zhou Sheng shouted: "Tiger Spot."

Chen Yuan ran over with a big fishing net and picked up the fish.

Zhou Sheng looked at the tiger stripes and laughed and said: "Not bad, not bad, it turns out to be a tiger stripe. Hurry up and raise it."

"How much does tiger spot cost?" Chen Xin asked, "I've never caught one before."

"The price of tiger groupers is more expensive than some common groupers," Chen Yuandao said.

For the specific price per catty, you can check the seafood shop owner’s quotation after you go back. But generally speaking, tiger spots cost more than 100 yuan per catty.

If you live in a place with high spending power, live tiger stripes can be sold for more than 200 yuan.

It's ten o'clock in the morning.

Chen Yuan raised the tiger stripes, then checked other fish boxes, fished out the fish with poor vitality, and fixed the fish boxes: "Go back."

"How far is the throttle?" Zhou Sheng asked.

"That's for sure, keep the accelerator to the bottom..." Chen Yuandao said: "I'm going to bed. Check the fish in the box every half an hour. If the fish is not energetic enough, throw it in the refrigerator..."

"Okay." Zhou Sheng turned off the gyro stabilizer of the fishing boat, pushed the throttle lever, and turned the steering wheel.

Chen Yuan went back to the cabin, took out his mobile phone and read the downloaded novel, and fell asleep while reading it.

When I woke up, I had already returned to the fishing port.

It was half past one in the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and there were not many people in sight on the streets beside the fishing port.

Chen Yuan and Zhou Sheng carried the fish box to the car and went straight to the aquatic product store.

There are only 8 live fish left.

A tiger stripe weighs 33.1 pounds.

The rest are small groupers, totaling 2.1 pounds.

These live fish were sold for 5,500 yuan.

The groupers caught today by sneak hunting were relatively large, one weighed 33 kilograms, one weighed 28.8 kilograms, one weighed 22.4 kilograms, and two weighed more than ten kilograms...the total weighed 107.3 kilograms.

The fish caught by stalking had wounds on their bodies, but they were relatively large and very fresh.

There are some types of grouper, red-spotted grouper, and giant grouper, which cost 70 yuan per catty, or 7,500 yuan.

Leave some small groupers to eat for yourself.

The remaining groupers, parrot fish, bomb fish, squid, and moray eels, which totaled more than 170 kilograms, were all packaged and sold for 9,100 yuan.

The conger eel caught by Zhou Sheng is also called an oil cone. It costs 55 yuan per catty locally, and one weighs 17 catties.

There are also two stonefish caught by Chen Yuan, which cost 110 yuan per catty and weighed 5.7 catties.

I caught a lot of fish today.

The fish caught was estimated to be over thirty kilograms.

Chen Yuan caught a giant mackerel and a tuna...

Not counting tuna, the boss paid 6 yuan per catty for this tuna. Chen Yuan thought it was too cheap and planned to take it back to feed the cat.
