Chen Yuan stayed up late baking the dried fish. The next day, he slept until after ten o'clock before getting up and went to the courier station to send the dried fish to Yan Xiaoxi.
In the morning I ate some steamed buns and soy milk, then went to the candy shop and ordered some snacks and a portion of candy water.
The morning passed quickly.
It's a bright sun again today, the bright sun is a bit dazzling outside.
At noon, Chen Xin called and asked when he would go to sea.
Chen Yuan drove to the beach, called a tanker truck, and added 1 ton of diesel to the fishing boat.
1 ton of diesel is 1176 liters.
Waiting for Zhou Sheng, Yang Xun and others to come over, then set off.
Today I will go to Dafangshi. I will rush there now and come back after catching the tide.
This time, Yang Xun and the others still paid for the fuel, and then the fish caught were sold and the money was divided equally. There was little time for fishing today, so Chen Yuan only received 1,500 yuan.
1,500 yuan is not enough for gas. Just a round trip will cost more than 1,800 yuan in gas. I used to find fishing spots, and used the engine to fix the spots when fishing... At the very least, I need to pay for one trip.
2,000 yuan for gas.
Chen Yuan calculated this fuel cost based on the maximum speed.
Running slowly and leisurely on the road was really strenuous. After leaving the island, Chen Yuan started to run at full speed.
Bring He Fei and Yang Xun with you. Not only will they help pay for the gas, but their fishing skills are also very good...
This can be said to be a win-win situation, with Chen Yuan and the others winning more.
The boat fee is 1,500 yuan, which is 750 yuan per person. It is easy to earn back the boat fee when you go out to catch the tide and fish.
It was already two o'clock when we arrived at Dagangshi. There were already small boats, fishing boats, and sampans coming here to catch the tide.
At the fishing spot that Chen Yuan and the others found yesterday, three small boats were parked and their poles were already lowered.
Chen Yuan looked at it from a distance, found another fishing position, and stopped the boat.
Today, Chen Yuan fished with string hooks alone, but he made a fish collector.
The fish aggregator is also a nest.
Use bait cages and ropes.
The water here is 14 meters deep. Four 12-meter ropes were taken. The ropes were made of powerful marlin lines, and a bait cage was tied 3 meters apart, filled with Antarctic shrimp. A 4-kilogram pendant was hung at the bottom.
One pole is hung in front of the fishing boat and two poles are hung in the back of the fishing boat. Together with the floating fishing boat, this is a simple floating fish collector at sea.
The fishing spot we found today is not deep, so we anchored the fishing boat.
Today I also hung two bottom fishing rods.
Chen Yuan fishes with string hooks, and Chen Xin pulls the iron plate. There is no need to throw the iron plate far, just use the fishing method. The iron plate is easier...
Zhou Sheng, He Fei and Yang Xun fished with double hooks and live shrimps, mainly catching big fish.
After a while, small fish gathered under the boat.
He Fei and the others came over and saw the fish detection footage, and instantly became excited.
If there are more small fish, the big fish will naturally come over.
Soon, they packed up their fishing rods and started fishing.
Chen Yuan did not use a bait cage for the string hook this time. He hooked the shrimp bait and lowered the rod.
He Fei has already caught a fish, a yellow snapper of decent size, about half a catty: "I caught a fish as soon as I lowered the pole. Today is another day when the fish box will explode."
"I got one too." Yang Xun raised the pole and flew in two directions, and all the fish were yellow snappers.
Chen Xin pulled out the iron plate, and a two-point fish came up with his spear. It can be seen that there are quite a lot of fish gathered below.
Everyone is catching fish.
Chen Yuan lowered his pole for a few minutes and then lifted it up. There were seven fish in a string. Two yellow snappers, one black snapper...the rest were all miscellaneous fish.
After fishing for more than ten minutes, there was movement on the bottom fishing rod next to Zhou Sheng, and he hurried over to lift it up. What hung below was an octopus, and a grouper weighing six or seven kilograms was lifted up.
Chen Xin hit several fish in a row, but there was no particularly big fish. She continued to smoke, and the rod suddenly sank: "I hit a big fish."
Chen Xin's face was covered tightly. At this time, his face was already red with excitement, and the force coming from the pole was very strong.
"Do you want help?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"No, I'll do it myself."
Chen Yuan looked over: "Here, Zhou Sheng, get it up quickly. Otherwise, the fish below will be scared away."
"It's okay, let girl Xinxin have some fun." He Fei said, "The tide hasn't come yet."
Zhou Sheng looked at Chen Xin. Chen Xin hugged the fishing rod so tightly that her fishing rod was bent.
After fishing for so long, she has also hit big fish, but she has not pulled up any big fish by herself. She just wants to give it a try...
The seventh tide hasn't arrived yet, so you can try to slip away.
A fish, Chen Xin, slipped away for ten minutes. After the fish came out of the water, a GT.
After seeing this, Chen Xin was a little disappointed: "Why is it a GT?"
"Otherwise, what kind of fish do you want?"
"I want a big grouper."
"I will take you out when I have time to fish for big groupers," Zhou Sheng said.
Chen Xin looked at Zhou Sheng: "Okay."
Today is the seventh tide after three o'clock, and at this time it is all appetizers.
Time passes minute by minute, and on average it takes one or two minutes to catch a fish.
"You still have half a shrimp, do you need to replace it?" He Fei saw Yang Xun talking about shrimp bait and said loudly: "Use it sparingly. I didn't bring much bait today, and the tide hasn't come yet."
The seventh tide has not arrived yet, but the sea water can already be seen moving.
"Finish fishing early and finish work early. Now the harvest has been landed." He Fei said with a smile.
As time goes by, the fish below are getting more and more violent.
When the tide came, the small fish below dispersed a little, and it was rare for the big fish to come over.
"A big fish is coming." Chen Yuan looked at the fish detector screen and said that He Fei had caught a larger fish.
Chen Xin also caught a big fish, a Spanish mackerel, which weighed four or five kilograms and was pretty good in size.
Yang Xun in front was hanging bait when he suddenly saw the bottom fishing rod moving. He immediately became excited, threw away the rod, and went over to pick up the fishing rod.
There was a violent pulling force below, and the electric wheel made a labored sound. The fish below suddenly exerted force, and the fish wheel could not pull, but it was actually releasing its force.
"The fish down there are at least a hundred pounds." Yang Xun shouted: "Zhou Sheng, come here and help."
"Here we come." Zhou Sheng put away the fishing rod and ran over, picked it up and pulled it manually: "This fish is not bad. If it is a grouper, it is estimated to weigh more than 150 kilograms."
It was not difficult for Zhou Sheng to judge the approximate weight of the fish based on its feel. But due to the way the fish exerted force, Zhou Sheng quickly concluded that this was not grouper: "It should be tuna."
"Tuna is okay, too," Yang Xun said.
"No worse than grouper." He Fei said.
Zhou Sheng pulled for a few minutes. After the fish came out of the water, Zhou Sheng gave the fishing rod to He Fei. He picked up the iron hook and pulled the fish up.
This is a dog-tooth golden gun, estimated to weigh about a hundred pounds. Probably more than ninety pounds...
The row of teeth of Dog Tooth and Golden Gun looks a bit oozing.
Zhou Sheng took it to the back, bled it, took out a long box, put a layer of ice cubes under the long box, put the fish in, and laid a layer of ice cubes on top.
Ice cubes are cut from large ice blocks.
I also brought two large ice cubes with me today, each weighing 50 kilograms.
"How much does a pound of dog-tooth gold gun cost?" Zhou Sheng asked.
"It costs tens of yuan per catty," Chen Yuan said.
Chen Yuan doesn't know the specific price. Anyway, this thing can't be more expensive than yellowfin tuna...
A dogtooth tuna excited everyone for a while.
This fish appeared, and many small fish gathered under the fishing boat ran away again.
But soon more small fish gathered, and where there were small fish, there were big fish.
Chen Xin caught several mackerel in succession and also caught a red octopus.
The red octopus is not big in size, and it is not easy to catch large octopus in the Xisha and Nanhai areas, weighing over 100 kilograms.
