More than two minutes passed and no teammates were seen coming up. The other soldier suddenly became a little anxious.
"Why hasn't Ah San come up yet? I'll go down and have a look."
"Ah San? Uh...should we wait and see?"
"Can you do it? Forget it, I'll go down..."
"Hey, it's loose..."
Ye Yaodong tried to lift the fishing line up. There was no obstacle and it was pulled out of the water at once. Then, a person floated up from the water with a splash.
"Come up quickly, thank you for your hard work..."
He and another person each stretched out a hand and pulled the person up.
"Thank you. If you don't come up, your teammates will jump down."
"It's okay, the fishhook caught the lock of a big box."
"Is there really a shipwreck down there? Tsk, tsk, tsk, these boxes are one after another. The museum is going to make a fortune. I wonder how much money they can help apply for to build a temple?"
Ye Yaodong just muttered a few words, not expecting them to answer.
Unexpectedly, the one who jumped into the water was named Ah San. At this time, he took out two things from his pocket.
"Scallops?" He was surprised.
Ah San said with a smile: "When I went into the water, I happened to see it running on the bottom of the sea. It looked very cute while shaking and stumbling, so I picked it up and put it in my pocket."
"Good guy, he's quite big. How does he look like when he runs?"
"Uh...how can I describe this? It looks like a child learning to walk and running."
Ye Yaodong took it and weighed it in his hand for a few times, feeling regretful that it would be difficult for him to dive with these people around.
"Why didn't you just pick up a few more? Just two are only enough for two bites, not enough to divide." Another soldier said.
"I'm looking for where the fishhook is. I don't have so much time to look for scallops. It would be nice to just catch two." Ah San said politely, "It would be nice if you jumped down and picked up a few more. I think it would be nice."
There are quite a few under the sea.”
"Then I'll go down and catch a few too."
They are all young people in their early 20s, and there is no one who doesn’t like to have fun.
Ye Yaodong watched helplessly as the other one also jumped for a bite, and he was also a little eager to give it a try.
"It made me so curious that I wanted to jump down."
"You'd better catch your fish."
Ye Yaodong re-baited the fishhook with a regretful look on his face. He could only catch his own fish. There were some good fish at the bottom of the sea, but they were all hidden deep. He was just a normal ordinary person.
Forget it, let’s go fishing!
Afraid that he would hook something messy and get stuck in the bottom, he stopped swinging and slid the hook and stone along the side of the ship. Then he waited quietly, keeping the line straight and unbent.
If the fishing line is slack, it will not be able to receive the signal of the fish biting the hook well, let alone pull the line to fish in a timely manner.
After straightening the fishing line, he swung the fishing line from time to time to let the bait float on the seabed to attract fish.
I don’t know if it was luck, but as soon as the hook was lowered, there was a shaking feeling on the fishing line. There was a continuous numbness in the fingers, and the pulling was strong, and the feeling was particularly clear.
He promptly lifted the line to the inside of his body and tried to pull it again. He felt that he had already hit the fish, but this fish seemed not to be underestimated. As soon as he sensed the fish taking the bait, a strong pulling force came from the line on his hand.
The fish on the hook is trying to run in the opposite direction.
Ye Yaodong held the wooden stick in one hand, and turned the other hand to roll the fishing line into his palm, pulling it tightly to prevent it from biting the hook and running away.
Now he coiled the line tightly and pulled it for a while, then loosened it slightly, and then quickly tightened it again. Right here, there was a crash on the sea, and the soldier who had jumped came up.
When his clothes floated to the surface, he wiped the water stains on his face and said excitedly: "Oh, let me go, that fish on your hook is so big."
"Really, did you see it? What kind of fish is it?" Ah San asked excitedly.
"It's exactly the same as the big fish Adong caught before."
Ye Yaodong was instantly pleasantly surprised, "It's another octopus fish. I'm so lucky today!"
"They are about the same size. They are very lucky, better than your father."
"I just said let me come and watch me pull this big fish..."
Ah San reached out to help take the scallops he was holding tightly in his hand, pulled him up and said, "How many scallops did you pick up?"
"I didn't count it, but the pockets were full. I dropped a lot when I came up. I watched it rolling and crawling away under my nose. It's a pity that I didn't bring a net bag, otherwise I could have picked up more."
"I told you earlier, I have a net bag on the boat," Ye Yaodong said distractedly while walking the fish, "You jumped so fast in front of me, I want to tell you that it's too late to bring a net bag down."
"Do you still have a net bag on the boat? A net bag for fruit?"
"It's almost the same, the opening where it goes in is just a little different."
"Oh, if I had known better, I would have brought a net bag down with me." He said, then took out the scallops stuffed in his pocket and threw them into the basket on the side. There were quite a few of them, a dozen or so.
"There are quite a lot of sounds, isn't it?" Ye Yaodong was curious about how many he had picked up, and turned his head to take a distracted look, "They are not small!"
"Xiao Gaozi, let's go down together after we have had enough rest. Bring a net bag. If we two have company together, we will pick up more."
"Okay."
One is 'Long Aotian', one is 'Indian Asan', and the other is Xiao Gaozi. Now Ye Yaodong probably knows what their names are.
He walked the fish back and forth until it was exhausted and no longer resisted, and then he lifted it ashore in one fell swoop.
"Wow, wow, wow! You brought it up. You are really good at fishing. You caught two big fish, and they were not bitten or torn off by the fish?"
"You're lucky. If it gets bitten off, wouldn't it be useless? You can help me get a hook and hook it up."
The two of them were pushing each other, rushing to get the hook, and finally it fell into Asan's hands.
A big fish was hooked up and thrown on the deck. Ye Yaodong didn't care about it and took the lead in untying the fishing line wrapped around his hand.
When he came forward with the knife, he realized something was wrong.
"Where is the red octopus on this horse? It's obviously ganache!" He said while patting the fish's body with the back of his knife.
Ah San and Xiao Gaozi were both confused, "Don't they look the same as the one you caught before?"
"What's the same? They just look alike. Look at the scales here. They are all messy, some are big and some are small. The scales of the octopus fish just now are the same size and very even. This is the biggest difference between them. Bai was happy
, I thought I caught another octopus fish.”
The hamachi has black eyeshadow on the outside and a yellow band running from the head to the tail.
The body of the octopus is oblong, slightly flattened on the sides, round on the belly, and the back is grey-blue or olive, sometimes with pink pearlescent.
If you don't observe carefully, the two can easily be confused.
"Is that so? But we all feel the same..."
"So you are not from the seaside."
"Then this fish is worthless?"
"It's not bad. It's so big and weighs more than ten kilograms. It's just not as good as the octopus, but it's not bad if you can catch this fish. The taste of the octopus will be better and the fishy smell will be lighter. Hamachi
The meat quality is slightly worse and the fishy smell is stronger.”
"There are so many fish in the sea, and many of them are about the same size. How can they be distinguished so clearly? I guess only you fishermen can distinguish them carefully."
"Who makes us rely on this for a living? We can generally recognize and distinguish fish that come ashore frequently. It's difficult to distinguish fish that don't come ashore often and are hidden in the sea." Ye Yaodong said while bleeding the big fish.
.
Although it is not as good as the red octopus fish, it is so big that it is still better than the small fish. It is not as good as the upper one but more than the lower one.
This hamachi not only looks like an octopus in appearance, but when you cut the meat into pieces, the meat inside is somewhat similar to cod.
There are some unscrupulous merchants who often sell hamachi slices as hamachi because hamachi is cheap, and hamachi is seven or eight times more expensive than hamachi. Sometimes you must not be greedy for cheap.
For things like seafood, you basically get what you pay for. It’s hard to find good products at a cheap price. Sellers are not fools. Who doesn’t want to make money?
There is also a fish called oil fish. Its appearance and cut meat are more like silver cod, and it is often passed off as silver cod.
This oily fish is very rich in fat, but it cannot be absorbed by the human body. Eating this kind of fish can easily cause diarrhea, vomiting and other digestive tract symptoms.
In particular, some parents like to buy cod as complementary food for their children. You really have to choose this carefully and not be greedy for cheap.
This kind of oily fish is worse, while hamachi is better. There are really many businesses that only focus on profit but not on quality.
After Ye Yaodong drained the blood from the hamachi, he took it into the cabin, put it into a basket with the octopus in front, and covered it with tattered clothes.
Fortunately, he was smart before and was willing to spend money to put a black woven mesh cloth on the roof of the boat, which can absorb heat, prevent the sun from directly reaching the cabin, and the temperature of the small cabin can be lowered.
However, it is best to buy some ice cubes and put them on the boat tomorrow so that they can be fresher. I forgot about them when I got on the boat today.
He took another look at the bucket of fish he had caught. Most of them were alive. Some of the fish could still swim around in the bucket if they had a hole punched in their fat and were deflated.
Of these, the valuable ones were sold, and the less valuable ones were sold in two bowls. The evening dishes were now available, including scallops.
Looking at the tangled fishing line, he had a headache again, but it was not that troublesome for two soldiers to help him sort it out.
When it was almost dusk, two soldiers asked him to borrow a net bag, and they went into the water to pick scallops together, which made him a little envious.
Not to mention picking up scallops, even if there are none, it is quite comfortable to take a dip in the water and swim around on this hot day.
He didn't know if those people had fished out all the cargo from the bottom of the sunken ship, but whether there were any scallops left for him to fish out.
Looking at the scallops in the basket next to him, it’s not even dinner time yet, and he already has scallops in garlic sauce and vermicelli in his mind, sprinkle some chopped green onion and green onion oil, suck it up~
