Chapter 1330 Big Red Squid(1/3)

Ye Yaodong stared at the screen until he saw that as the fishing boat moved, the yellow and green dots on the screen suddenly turned red. His eyes lit up, and the red dots became redder and redder.

A large area of ​​red almost fills the screen, with only some scattered green and yellow dots on the edge.

He was very happy and immediately drove the fishing boat slowly towards the direction of these red dots.

It was almost time to set up the net, but he didn't expect that he would encounter a large group of fish.

The denser the red dots and the darker the color, the larger the fish school.

Along the way, he saw red dots on the display screen, but they were only scattered, not so red, and not so large that they filled the screen.

After all, fish schools under the seabed are moving, and sonar detectors can only detect an approximate picture. Once the fish move, the coverage of fishing nets is also a matter of luck.

Naturally, the larger the fish school, the greater the probability that the fishing net can catch fish, and the more fish there are.

Anyway, wherever the red dot is detected, he will move there until the red dot disappears, then he will continue to move along the established track.

At this time, he was operating the fishing boat to move towards the red dot on the monitor, and there was noise coming from the channel.

It was the other two fishing boats who were discussing the harvest of their net, and said that they were not far from the fishing point on their chart.

According to the current speed of 2 to 4 knots, it will only take more than an hour to reach the fishing point. Then everyone can move around and fish by themselves, as long as they do not deviate too far.

In fact, it's pretty much the same now. I'll move based on the situation. Anyway, the general direction is not much different, and we're almost at the location.

As for the remaining distance of less than ten nautical miles, it may only take half an hour to reach it under normal sailing. Now it is considered to be in the surrounding area, so it doesn't matter if you can move around freely.

Ye Yaodong listened to them and only responded casually a few times, saying that he also planned to close the net.

He had to wait for the red dot on the display to disappear before turning on the Internet. Anyway, it wouldn't take more than half a minute.

The workers below were almost all waiting to raise the net at this time. They knew in their hearts that it was time to raise the net. The previous batch of goods had already been sorted.

The ones with high value are put in the freezer, the ones with low value are put in the refrigerator, and the ones that cannot be sold are thrown back into the sea.

The clattering basket after basket made Ye Yaodong feel pain in his heart. These can be sold for a lot of money in the future. Even now, if he drags them back, he can dry the dried fish and sell them for money. Where does this come from? Return

Where has it gone?

If he could record videos, he couldn't imagine how many fans he would gain.

It's possible that not many people were left on board but fell down, which is not impossible.

He shook his head regretfully and could only turn his attention away from the screen.

At this moment, he saw the people below seemed to be exclaiming and excited, and he stretched his neck out of curiosity.

The area around the fishing boat seemed to be boiling, with water constantly splashing and schools of fish jumping. Workers were running back and forth holding nets.

He was surprised, and curiously walked out of the cockpit with a flashlight, stood on the helm and shined it on the water, and then he saw it clearly.

"Ouch, holy shit, bomb fish..."

There were densely packed shellfish on one side of the fishing boat. As the fishing boat moved forward, those shellfish kept chasing the fishing boat.

It only exists on one side, but not on the other side.

The workers below also kept shouting.

"Lao la la lao..."

"Hurry up, be careful..."

"Oh my god, there are so many..."

"It's too big. Please help me. I can't pull it up alone..."

Ye Yaodong shouted to them with a loudspeaker: "Come on, catch more. They must have been attracted by the light of your flashlights and headlamps. We will prepare to set up the net later."

Everyone responded without looking back, focusing on fighting the bomb fish next to them.

The shellfish attracted by the light were densely packed beside the boat. The small shellfish weighed about ten kilograms, the average one weighed thirty or forty kilograms, and the large ones weighed fifty or sixty kilograms, which were quite a lot. You couldn't sell them even if you caught them.

Less money.

In order to catch these fish beside the boat, he did not dare to lift the net now, so he could only continue to drag it and watch it going back and forth in the cockpit.

In fact, he really wanted to go down and help, but there were enough people down there, so he had to sit up here.

But we can't keep this up indefinitely. We still need to be able to connect to the Internet when the time comes. Otherwise, if there are too many goods, it will be a big problem that the network cannot be collected by then.

Four or five hours have passed since the net was launched in the evening, which is much longer than the afternoon. Moreover, a large wave of fish has just passed by, so the cargo in the fishing net must be considerable at this time.

Generally, a fishing boat of this size can operate underwater for between 3 and 6 hours. It is up to the person at the helm to take control and close the net according to the situation.

Ye Yaodong saw that half an hour had passed and everyone was still fighting against the shellfish, so he had no choice but to shout with a loudspeaker and ask them to prepare to set up the net.

"Getting ready to raise the net, half of the people are preparing to raise the net, and the other half are continuing to catch the bombfish... Did you hear..."

"Oh~"

Everyone agreed and then agreed to divide half of the people out to collect the net.

Some people find lead cables connected to fishing nets. Usually these lead cables are clearly marked for quick identification.

One end of the lead cable is fixed to the fishing net, and the other end is on the boat.

Connect the leader cable to a winch on the deck. The winch usually has a special connector or hook for securing the leader cable.

And keep an eye on it to ensure that the connection between the lead cable and the winch is firm and reliable to avoid loosening or breaking during the net collection process.

Some people go to the tail and pay attention to the process of retracting the fishing net to avoid making mistakes.

When they were ready, they shouted to him.

"Ready..."

After Ye Yaodong made sure they were ready, he asked them to start the winch.

It just came out today, and some of them are novices. Most of them are unsure and have to wait for his confirmation. After they are familiar with it, they will start the winch according to the situation.

After the winch is started, it begins to slowly collect the lead cable and gradually pulls the fishing net towards the side of the ship.

The speed of the winch must be moderate to avoid damage to the fishing net or breakage of the lead cable due to excessive speed.

While he was paying attention to the retracting of the fishing net, he watched them continue to fish for shellfish. The cockpit was still somewhat soundproof, and coupled with the sound of wind and waves, their surprised voices below were not so clear.

But he could see them smiling with joy every time they hauled up a shellfish.

Although they all work for him, and he sells the fish for money, there is also a sense of accomplishment when he fishes it for himself.

They also moved the rope hanging the light bulb closer to the side of the boat so that the light could shine on the sea surface and make the shellfish more excited to ensure that they would always follow the fishing boat.

The process of collecting the net also takes more than half an hour. The winch tightens slowly. The more fish in it, the heavier it becomes. The collection may be slightly slower.

When the windlass stopped moving, Ye Yaodong also knew that the fishing nets had been collected at the stern of the boat.

Now he could go down and take a look with peace of mind, and let the ship continue sailing according to the scheduled route for the time being.

"Brother Dong... there must be a lot of nets here. They are so heavy that the windlass is creaking..."

"The previous network also rang..."

"This net is louder and more difficult to watch..."

Ye Yaodong said with a smile: "There must be a lot. We just encountered a large wave of fish, and the dragging time of this net is much longer than the previous one, so there must be a lot of goods."

"I'll put a pack away now and see if there's any good stuff..."

He nodded and told them to hang up first while he went to the other side.

There are already a lot of shellfish scattered on the deck. By visual inspection, there are more than 20 fish, ranging from small ones weighing more than ten kilograms to large ones weighing more than fifty kilograms.

Some of them had already been bled, and the deck was stained everywhere and looked bloody.

"Brother Dong, there are so many fish here..."

"Thank you for your hard work, salvage it for a while, and let someone else take a rest when you get tired."

"Hey... it would be great if this was tuna. Aren't the two of us relatives?"

"As long as it's tuna, you'll be rich."

After Ye Yaodong finished speaking with a smile, he also looked at the sea. The fish were really like being in a hot pot, rushing to the side of the fishing boat. The waves hit the cannonball fish, adding a bit of luster.

"There are really many."

"Yes, it would be great if the boat had the old roller. Once you cast the net, you can use the roller to roll it and put it away. It would save trouble."

"Take your time and take a rest when you are tired..."

It would definitely be good to catch more, but fishing one by one like this would not make a big fortune based on the human body's physical strength. You still have to look inside the fishing net to make a big fortune.

Isn’t this fishing net that can easily haul tens of thousands of kilograms in a single net better than the laborious efforts to fish them out one by one here?

But you can’t do it without it. They can all be sold for money, so we can only let everyone try their best.

If they are tired, let them rest.

After you have rested enough and you still have energy, fish again. Anyway, it seems that as long as there is light, these shellfish will be attracted to follow the fishing boat. If you can catch it, try to catch it as much as possible.

There are really a lot of bomb fish around here.

"Wow...it's hanging..."
To be continued...
