Sun Dahai knew in his mind at this time that everyone would go to the camp for lunch later. Sun Dahai originally thought that he would have a makeshift meal in the open air today.
To be honest, in this cold weather, if we really have to eat outdoors, I'm afraid I won't even be able to stretch out my hands, but it will be bearable enough.
Hidurigu went on to introduce: "After the development work of Daqingshan began, several projects were opened in Qixing Lake. Therefore, the development company decided to expand the rest point and make it a real fixed camping site in the wild.
Now there are two rows of brick buildings built here, which are divided into a large dining hall, kitchen, public bathroom, public toilet and bedrooms. The bedrooms are divided into single rooms and full bunk beds, and there are also Kangs inside. In this way, here every year
It can be inhabited in all seasons.
Usually a few people from the project team live there, and when we come to work during the busy farming season, we all live here. The conditions now are much better than before."
While he was talking, there was a burst of cheers in the distance. It turned out that Boss Li was using a small net to catch fish from the ice break.
Even though the ice break over there is small, if you use a small net, three or four people can take turns taking turns. Holding the net with a long pole in your hand, you can catch fish by stirring it in the water.
However, the net opening of this kind of dip net is relatively small, and fish that are too big cannot be caught in the net. However, this kind of net itself can be operated by a single person, and it is not a net that can catch big fish at all.
Even if you are lucky enough to catch a big fish in the net, if a fish weighing more than ten kilograms flops in the water, the person holding the net will definitely be blind and unable to lift it up at all.
Although Sun Dahai and the others were not able to attend the preparatory meeting held before the "Icebreaking Fishing" event because they went to the Little Tail Han Sheep Breeding Base, the specific details of this event have been conveyed to Wang Huan and Meng Jie.
.
Therefore, Sun Dahai knew about the activities carried out there. Sun Dahai really didn't like using small nets to catch fish. He couldn't catch big fish, and he didn't like small fish, so he had no intention of going there.
There are a total of two nets to be lowered here. Now that the first net is finished, we have to wait for half an hour for the fish underwater to gather again before lowering the second net.
Now there are also solo activities here. Wang Sanpao asked someone to bring some home-made fishing rods from the car to prepare for everyone to fish at the ice break.
These fishing rods are the simplest hand rods, about two or three meters in length, very light but full of toughness. The fishing lines tied to them are also very short, only about one or two meters long.
I don’t know what material this fishing rod is made of, but it doesn’t look like bamboo. There is no naturally growing bamboo in Long Province, so there is no custom of using bamboo for fishing rods here in Kaoshantun.
Xidurigu didn't know how to fish, so he didn't know. He casually pulled Narisong over, who was maintaining order, and asked him.
Narisong knew this very well. The raw material for making fishing rods comes from a small tree unique to Daqingshan. The branches are slender, but have a certain hardness and elasticity.
This kind of tree is relatively oily, so the locals call it "oil wattle". I don't know if it is a variant of yellow wattle.
This plant has little economic value. In the past, people in the mountains used it as firewood. Later, people tried to make it into a simple fishing rod, and found that the effect was good.
So this craft was passed down, and after several generations of continuous improvement, although it was not a secret recipe, it gradually formed a unique local technology.
There are quite a few people making small fishing rods like this in the entire Kaoshan Village. Even if they are not over a hundred, there are dozens of them.
Hidurigu is a Mongolian who moved to Kaoshan Village as an adult. He does not know how to fish and does not like water very much, so he has never made a fishing rod.
However, his son Narisong grew up in Kaoshantun and learned how to make fishing rods with his friends since he was a child.
Because normal fishing uses various fishing nets, fishing baskets and long poles. This kind of short hand pole has a relatively small use and is mainly used by these half-grown men.
At this time, Xidurigu asked him, and he was asking the right person.
At this time, Wang Sanpao had already begun to demonstrate to everyone how to use this short-handed rod to fish from the ice break.
Although a large net was used, there were still many small fish caught in the fishing net among the fish caught in the previous net. By this time, they had already frozen to death and were thrown aside alone.
Wang Sanpao did not waste any time. He picked up a palm-long pointed willow root, chopped off the head and tail with a knife, and then threw the head and tail into the ice cave.
Then, Wang Sanpao cut the remaining fish body into three or four sections, each section being just a small piece. Then he hung one of the pieces of fish meat on the fishhook, and then walked to less than one meter from the edge of the ice break.
Stopped at the place.
Two security guards tied safety ropes around Wang Sanpao's waist, and then stood on either side of him behind him, pulling on the safety ropes to protect him.
"Everyone should note that for the sake of safety, every tourist who attempts ice fishing is not allowed to come within half a meter of the ice break, and must put on a safety rope and be protected by security personnel before they can engage in ice fishing."
He pointed to the pairs of fishing rods next to him, and then said: "Our staff have prepared the fishing rods and bait for everyone, and now I am going to put the fishing rod down.
Please note that our hand rod is a specially made short rod for ice-breaking fishing.
Due to the general lack of oxygen in the water under the ice, when the ice breaks, nearby fish will gather at the ice break to breathe fresh air.
Therefore, when fishing in this situation, the most important thing is quick eyes and quick hands. A fish will take the bait soon after setting the hook. The hook must be lifted in the direction of the fish's force, otherwise the hook will be easily detached, and the fishing rod may even fall off the hand."
With that said, Wang Sanpao took the bait.
Because the fishing line is not long, Wang Sanpao's posture is a bit funny. He holds the fishing rod with both hands and stretches it toward the ice hole diagonally below. The front end of the fishing rod hangs very low, almost touching the water surface.
As soon as the bait entered the water, he immediately started to move the fishing rod, making the bait move with it in the water.
In less than ten seconds, Wang Sanpao squatted down, turned half a circle with his waist as the axis, and at the same time raised his hands diagonally upward, and a fish was caught.
In order to let everyone see it more clearly, Wang Sanpao threw the fish directly onto the ice. After the fish flopped on the ice for a few times, it soon stopped moving.
Sun Dahai didn't recognize this fish, but it was quite big, probably weighing about two kilograms. Judging from its size and the sharp teeth, it must be a carnivorous fish.
Because Wang Sanpao uses a short pole and short line, it is easier to raise the pole with more strength in the hand. It is not as troublesome as when using a long pole and long line. When reeling in the pole, you have to fight with the fish to prevent decoupling.
or disconnected.
Seeing Wang Sanpao catch the fish so easily, the tourists watching suddenly became interested. Everyone wanted to go up and practice their skills, including those who had never touched a fishing rod before.
