One hundred and eleven chapters trolling one two three
"These two brothers look really alike. Are they twins?" Hong Tao looked at the ship. He couldn't see any professional problems. This ship was larger than Captain Ueno's ship. The helm tower
It is also higher, and there are several large antenna-like metal poles protruding from the stern and both sides of the hull. I don't know what they are used for.
"I'm not sure about this, let's go on the boat." Zhou Xiaoli saw that Yae and the others had already boarded the boat, so she quickly followed them and jumped on the boat.
The younger brother who drove to pick up Hong Tao and the others is not only a driver, but also a porter. He is responsible for unloading and loading all the fishing gear and belongings carried by Hong Tao and the others. You have to help him and you are in a hurry. Hong Tao originally wanted to respect his elders.
After some love and care, she helped the uncle carry a few boxes, but the uncle yelled, which alarmed the people on the boat. Zhou Xiaoli hurried over and pushed Hong Tao onto the boat.
"Stop pretending to be a good person. This is his job and must be completed by him. If you help him, it means you are dissatisfied with his work. You don't understand this." After listening to Zhou Xiaoli's explanation, Hong Tao also understood.
Why was the younger brother so anxious just now? It seems that helping the old lady cross the road may not necessarily be praised all over the world.
After the things were loaded on the ship, the ship left the dock. When the ship started to start, Hong Tao was startled. He ran to the stern of the ship and took a look. I was amazed! There were two V8 hangers hanging on the stern of the ship, and the sound was unusually dull.
, if calculated in terms of power, this is equivalent to hanging two off-road vehicles behind the boat.
Hong Tao originally believed that Captain Ueno drove the boat faster, but now he definitely doesn't believe it, because the Maruyama brothers drove faster than Captain Ueno, so much so that Hong Tao couldn't even stand on the deck to look at the scenery, because the wind blew his eyes open.
Without opening it, even if he was wearing sunglasses, the splashing water would hurt his face or skin. For the sake of safety, Hong Tao got into the cabin and started preparing fishing gear with Yae and the others.
"Please help me ask, what kind of fish can be caught by trolling? Isn't it just a kind of swordfish?" Hong Tao fiddled with his two fishing rods while taking this opportunity to learn more about trolling.
knowledge.
“Mr. Yae said that there are also mahi-mahi (ghost-headed sword), tuna (tuna, tuna), bonito (cannonball fish), bamboo barracuda, spiny fish (bamboo barracuda), and sometimes sharks.
"Zhou Xiaoli had a hard time translating, because the names of these fish are different in different countries. Fortunately, there is a fishing album on the boat, and she can point out the pictures of the fish to Hong Tao, otherwise she would not know how to translate them.
That's correct.
"What are those big poles on the boat used for?" Hong Tao had a lot of questions, but he couldn't speak the language, so he could only ask them one by one.
"That's for hanging the fishing line, to prevent the fishing lines from getting tangled together." Mr. Yae was very patient with Hong Tao's strong thirst for knowledge, but Zhou Xiaoli was obviously lazy. Hong Tao clearly saw that Mr. Yae said a lot to her.
After gesticulating for a long time, she finally translated this sentence.
But there's nothing wrong with her. As long as she doesn't admit it, there's nothing anyone can do against her. She's the only one here who can speak both Japanese and Chinese, and Hong Tao doesn't dare to offend her, lest he won't even be able to translate a sentence.
"Then help me ask, what is this thing made of? Why is it used like this?" Hong Tao filtered out Zhou Xiaoli's eyes very naturally, and asked while holding a fake bait that was said to be used for sailfish fishing.
It is about a foot long and slightly thinner than the wrist. It has a pointed head in front and a lot of green nylon threads in the back. It looks like a wooden cucumber wearing a grass skirt. The funniest thing is that it is painted with fluorescent paint on its head.
With two big round eyes, he looks very funny.
"It is made of sheep hoof bones, which imitates the appearance of squid, and it also has a strong smell, which can attract swordfish to chase it in the sea."
"Then why don't you use live fish for fishing?" Hong Tao kept asking questions, and Zhou Xiaoli stopped staring at him, her eyes were tired.
"Mr. Yae said that swordfish like to chase high-speed fish on the sea, sometimes not for eating, but for fun. They naturally like to swim at high speed. You can also fish with live fish, but live fish don't have this
The purpose of this kind of fake bait is obvious, and secondly, it is easy to attract shark attacks. After fishing for a while,
Then you will know that a small wooden dolphin must be tied in front of this fake bait. When the boat starts, the small dolphin will jump on the water because of its two wooden wings, and this fake bait will look like it is in the water.
Chasing the small dolphin, once the swordfish sees it, it will chase it and attack the fake bait."
Through Zhou Xiaoli’s translation and Mr. Yae’s various gestures and gestures, Hong Tao finally understood that this fishing method of trolling with fake bait completely makes use of the sailfish’s living habits to trick it into taking the bait. To put it bluntly, this kind of flag fish
The fish has the temper of a child. The reason why it chases and attacks the fake baits on the water is not because it really wants to eat them. Compared with its weight of more than 1,000 kilograms, these fake baits are just like kittens catching flies and butterflies.
It's for fun.
In addition, this giant beast in the sea cannot bear to see other things on the sea swimming faster than it. When it discovers such an overestimating creature, it must catch up and bite it to death. It regards this as the most fun game.
As a result, its habit was mastered by humans, and then this game became a death game for sailfish, but they still played happily.
In addition to asking about some knowledge about trolling, Hong Tao also assembled a complete set of trolling fishing gear by himself with the help of Yae and several fishermen. Speaking of which, this trolling fishing gear really opened Hong Tao's eyes.
He has never seen such powerful fishing gear. The throwing rods he used to play in the reservoir are already very sharp, but compared with these equipment, his equipment is not even qualified to catch bait fish, and is just like a child's toy.
Same.
Trolling fishing rods are very short and single-jointed. They are usually made of fiberglass or carbon materials. They have very hard tonality. The tip of the rod is as thick as a thumb. Holding it in your hand is like holding a mop handle.
It’s very awkward. There is no longer that round wire loop on the rod body.
It has been replaced with a large conductor coil with bearings. In addition, the tail of the pole is also very special. There is a metal cross groove. When catching fish, the fisherman has to snap this groove into the corresponding position on the top of the belly.
It forms a fulcrum that can move back and forth so that both hands can lift the rod and take in the line.
In addition to a fishing rod, if you want to troll large fish, you need a special trolling reel. Hong Tao already has one. It was given to him by President Kojima a few days ago. This kind of reel
It is completely different from the spin-type bobbin winder we usually use. It is called a drum-type bobbin winder. It is very large, made entirely of stainless steel, and weighs 7 or 8 kilograms.
This reel can be wound with several thousand tens of kilograms of bus wire (the fishing line connected to the fishing reel or fishing rod is called the bus wire), and has a very powerful braking system and gear set, which can withstand large pulling forces and torques.
.
Fishing rods, reels and bus lines alone are not enough. There is one more important piece of equipment that cannot be forgotten, and that is the fishhook. This kind of fishhook for trolling sailfish is as long as a finger and as wide as an egg, and is made with a special
Made of steel, it not only has excellent toughness, but the penetrating power of the hook tip is also very strong, because the mouths of these large fish are full of bones, flesh and teeth, which requires the hook to not only penetrate their flesh, but also their bodies.
bone.
This kind of fishhook is not directly tied to the busbar, but a piece of soft steel wire more than 1 meter long is tied to the ring on the hook handle, and then a section of double-stranded nylon wire several meters long is used to connect the steel wire and the busbar.
The main purpose of connecting them is to take advantage of the stretchability of the nylon line to prevent the bus line from being broken due to the sudden explosive force of the fish when catching a fish, which is equivalent to a buffer.
Rod, wheel, line, hook, this is a complete set of trolling fishing gear. After hanging the fake bait, you can be ready for trolling at any time. But this is not the end. If you want to enter the actual combat, you still have to do
Some other preparations.
First, you have to put on your belly top first. This thing is like a pair of leather underwear, tied on the lower abdomen with a belt and crotch strap. But you may not think that it is to help you protect your crotch. It has only one real function, which is
When you catch a fish, insert the groove at the bottom of the fishing rod into the metal hole in the middle of the belly, and clamp a metal horizontal bar inside, thus turning the fishing rod into a rod that can only move up and down at the front.
