"Hand me the piece of paper next to you. This fish is quite big." Hong Tao has taken in a lot of lines, and the fish below have no strength to struggle. It is probably because the water temperature is dropping sharply as the water depth decreases, like fish
This kind of cold-blooded animal will change its body functions as the external temperature changes. If the temperature is too low, it will lose its ability to move. It is commonly known as a cold-blooded animal.
"Ah, it's coming up! It's coming up! Look, what kind of fish is this? Can it be caught?" After Zhou Xiaoli saw the fish in the water being caught by Hong Tao, she excitedly picked up the material and looked at the fish on the ground.
While rummaging around.
The fish in the net is still struggling slightly. Its whole body is yellow, and its pectoral and pelvic fins are a little red. It looks very similar to the yellow croaker we eat in China, but there are several black stripes on both sides of its body.
vertical stripes.
"It should be this one. It looks like yellow perch. You can catch it all year round. Each person can take away 20 fish, which must be over 30 centimeters." Zhou Xiaoli pointed to a picture on the material for Hong Tao to see.
"Okay, let's just catch it. Bring that ruler and I'll measure it. It's 38 centimeters. Okay, this is the first fish we've harvested. Come on, have a mouth..." Hong Tao happily put the hook on the fish
Pick it off, throw it out the door, and let it freeze in the snow to keep it fresh.
"Here we go again. Take the book and help me see what kind of fish it is. Come up...come up..." After a few minutes, Hong Tao's fishing rod was pulled again. This time it was a big guy with a coiled line.
It was a little hard to shake the wheel, and the fishing rod was too soft, so it took more than ten minutes to get it to the surface.
"This is..." Zhou Xiaoli became a professional comparator and started flipping through the book again.
"Okay, don't mess with it. I know this thing. Isn't it just a carp? Look, I haven't even shaved my beard." Hong Tao clasped the fish's mouth with his fingers and lifted it up. The fish weighed almost 5 kilograms.
, the appearance is similar to that of domestic carp, especially the two fleshy beards on its mouth, which directly reveal its identity.
"Asian carp can be caught all year round. There is no daily limit and no size requirements, but it looks different from your fish." Zhou Xiaoli found a picture of carp in the book and compared it with Hong Tao's fish.
After taking a look, it was obviously different.
"This is not fucking carp, isn't this grass carp? Why is it called carp?" Hong Tao was also confused. The picture clearly showed grass carp, but the name on the label was indeed Asian carp. He must not have mistaken it, grass carp.
Carp and carp are the two types of fish that Hong Tao caught the most in his previous life. Not to mention holding it in his hand and looking carefully, he can still tell what kind of fish it is based on its swimming characteristics even if it has not yet appeared in the water.
"Turn over, look, there are 4 kinds of fish here, all called Asian carp. They look different. This one looks like the one you caught." Zhou Xiaoli was still attentive. She turned the page of the album and found that on the next page
There are also 3 species of fish called Asian carp.
"This is silver carp, this is silver carp, and this is carp. I understand, this carp does not refer to carp, but should be translated as carpidae. You Canadians are really lazy. You have four kinds of fish with the same name. It's a shame."
You can figure it out." Hong Tao held the picture album and studied it for a while, and finally came to a comparative and logical conclusion, but he still had to ask Pawei for the final answer.
Hong Tao used his special-effect bait and sequined lures to pull all kinds of fish out of the ice cave at a speed of almost one fish every 15 minutes. Most of the time was spent looking at pictures to identify fish. There were good results.
Several types of fish that were not allowed to be caught were forced to be thrown back into the water, while the fish species that were allowed to be caught had to be passed through a ruler one by one, and they were not allowed to be kept even if they were even 1 millimeter apart, so they had to be released.
"Pawei is back, I'm sure to win this time. These two big carp alone are probably heavier than all his fish." Hong Tao heard the sound of an engine coming from outside the house. It was probably that Pawei and the others were back.
While standing up and opening the door, he proudly showed off to Zhou Xiaoli that just now
Just then, his second carp was also caught. To be precise, it was a grass carp. This one was bigger than the first one, weighing almost 10 kilograms. Even the small spear hook hanging on the sequins was straightened.
, if the water temperature was not too low, Hong Tao would never be able to get it with this small fishing rod.
"Hello, did you catch all these fish outside?" After the door opened, Hong Tao was startled. The people standing outside were not Pawei and Old Gale, but two guys in uniforms, a man and a woman, parked behind them.
He was driving a yellow and white off-road vehicle with three large letters GRC spray-painted on it. Although Hong Tao was not sure what these three letters meant, he could clearly see the gray leather belt exposed under the man's yellow cold-proof suit.
Holding a pistol.
"Hello, I caught it." Although Hong Tao felt that he had not done anything illegal, he was still very nervous when facing two policemen with live ammunition in a foreign country, especially the female policeman. If she were not Pavilion,
It's strange that my daughter is 180 pounds even if she doesn't have 200 pounds. She has big shoulders and a round waist, no worse than a man.
"My God, Mounted Police! You are so lucky. In my memory, I have only seen Mounted Police three times, two of which were in Vancouver." At this time, Zhou Xiaoli heard the noise and ran out. Seeing these two
After she got there, she was surprised and her face turned red with excitement like a crazy fan.
"We need to check your fishing license." Seeing Zhou Xiaoli's stupid smile, the female police officer on the side stepped forward very vigilantly and took over the male police officer's position.
"Oh, yes, I have..." When Hong Tao heard that he was inspecting fishing, his heart dropped.
"Are you a foreigner? Can I see your passport?" The female police officer took the fishing license and only glanced at it, her expression became more serious.
"Oh, this is my passport." Hong Tao took out his passport and handed it over.
"Miss, where's yours?" The policewoman turned her target to Zhou Xiaoli again.
"I'm a local, Miss Police." Zhou Xiaoli also noticed that this female police officer didn't like her very much, so she had to put away her stupid smile and obediently took out her driver's license.
"Did you catch these?" The female police officer took the two people's IDs and walked back to the police to verify their identities using the radio. The male police officer looked at a piece of fish thrown at the door of the hut and asked.
"I caught it. I fished according to the instructions. The size and quantity are all in compliance." Hong Tao handed the fishing pamphlet to the male policeman to prove that he had not violated any regulations.
"Oh, no, I also like fishing. I can tell without a manual that these fish meet the fishing specifications in your license. But I am curious about how you caught these fish from one fishing spot.
, you must know that these fish are very scattered in the lake, and the water layer is also different, especially this kind of fish, they are difficult to catch in winter." The male policeman squatted down, took off his gloves, and lifted up the grass carp.
.
"This is my secret. Do you also like fishing? Do you know much about this place?" When Hong Tao heard this, he met an expert. At least the male policeman did not lie. He must like fishing. The living habits of most fish
They all understand.
"Oh, I grew up here. I would also go fishing during my free time. This lake is my territory. My name is Dave. Nice to meet you." The female policeman came back and faced the male policeman.
He nodded and returned the certificates to Hong Tao and Zhou Xiaoli. When the male police officer saw that Hong Tao's identity was correct, he lowered his hands that were originally on his hips and took the initiative to shake hands with Hong Tao.
"I'm very happy too. My surname is Hong and my first name is Tao. You look good in your police uniform." Hong Tao saw the police suddenly change from a fierce look to a smiling face. He was not used to it and couldn't find the right words to greet him, so he had to
Use your police uniform to tell the story.
"Hahaha, you are the first to praise the police uniform for looking good. At least this is the first time I have heard of it. Can I go in and see you fishing? I am still curious. Of course, this is not a law enforcement order, but a request." Male policeman
Didn't want to leave.
"Then...welcome...please come in." Hong Tao didn't know what this male policeman wanted to do. People had already proposed it, so he couldn't refuse it. And according to Hong Tao's thinking habit, he really didn't dare to refuse the policeman.
