Rebirth of a fishing village: starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Zhao Dahai sent Wu Weimin away and immediately returned to the yard to start making preparations. One was to go fishing with Wu Weimin in the afternoon, and more importantly, the news that Liu Bin had just brought over, some special preparations had to be made.

Zhao Dahai was just getting ready when he heard the sound of a truck coming from outside the door. He opened the door and walked out. The metal welded live fish pond he bought was delivered to him. He unloaded the goods and pulled them into the yard, placing them in the corner. After installing and plugging in the power, I tried it and found that there was no problem with the oxygenator and water pump.

Zhao Dahai paid the money, saw off the driver of the truck, and immediately rode his tricycle to the beach and onto the pier. The new live fish pond had to be filled with seawater.

Zhao Dahai pulled it back and forth several times before filling the new live fish pond.

"Hey Hey!"

"No matter how many fish you catch, there is room for them!"

Zhao Dahai looked at the two live fish ponds, one new and one old. Seabass weighing 500 to 600 kilograms are no problem and can be fed. As for groupers, a grouper weighing ten to twenty kilograms can feed fifty or sixty fish, which is enough for his own use.

at noon.

Zhao Dahai finished lunch early and told his grandma Zhong Cuihua that he would go out to sea to fish for horsetails later and would not return to the dock until around nine o'clock in the evening. However, he would not go home and continue fishing at sea. On this evening trip, he and Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou will go together. If there are fish, they will come back later. If there are no fish, they will come back in the morning.

Zhao Dahai packed up his things and made sure nothing was missing. It was almost the time he agreed with Wu Weimin to go to sea. He put his things on the tricycle and drove towards the dock.

Zhao Dahai saw Wu Weimin's large off-road vehicle parked at the edge of the pier from a distance.

"ha!"

"Boss Wu."

"So early and so anxious!"

Zhao Dahai parked his tricycle and carried his things to Wu Weimin who opened the door and walked out.

"Boss Xu."

"Why are you here?"

Zhao Dahai saw Xu Yuanjiang and immediately looked at the open car door worriedly.

Wu Weimin told Zhao Dahai that Luo Fei and Li Yong did not come.

Zhao Dahai breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang both had rich fishing experience, while Luo Fei and Li Yong were almost novices. Luo Fei and Li Yong were a bit overwhelmed by fishing for sea bass, not to mention fishing for horsetails. Especially today's waves are relatively big, and inexperienced people can't stand firmly. Luo Fei and Li Yong will be very uncomfortable if they follow the fishing boat out to sea.

Zhao Dahai carried all the things he put on the tricycle onto the speedboat and packed them all up. The waves were relatively big today, so he had to be more careful and put things that should be put away. The speedboat was very fast. If it falls out, it is very likely to hit someone, and it is very easy to be injured.

As soon as Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang got on the speedboat, their expressions changed.

"Xu Yuanjiang."

"It looks like today is going to be very uncomfortable."

As Wu Weimin spoke, he took out a box of medicine from his pocket and picked a few pills in his mouth.

"ha!"

“Who said it was possible to catch scissor tails in weather like this?”

As Xu Yuanjiang spoke, he snatched Wu Weimin's medicine and stuffed several pills into his mouth.

Zhao Dahai shook his head when he saw Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang. The waves here at the pier are smaller. If you can't bear them, it will be very uncomfortable if you are one or two sea miles away.

"Boss Wu."

"Boss Xu."

"Do you want to think about it again?"

"It is indeed very uncomfortable to go to sea in such weather."

"Why don't we talk about it some other time?"

Zhao Dahai persuaded him. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang took seasickness medicine, which was of some use, but not very useful. People who have never experienced seasickness, or people who have never experienced carsickness, cannot understand the pain like this. Life is 100% worse than death.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang immediately shook their heads without even thinking about it.

They know that when speedboats or fishing boats are about to go out to sea, they will not return to the dock early if there is no big deal, such as bad weather or if someone is injured. The two people paid for the fishing spot, not the chartered boat. If we don't charter a boat now, if we go out to sea and get seasick, we won't be able to charter a boat when we come back.

Charter a boat?

The two of them are not short of money.

Zhao Dahai would not agree.

Zhao Dahai temporarily priced one fishing spot at 4,000 yuan a day. This time, it was considered half a day, which was 2,000 yuan per person. Zhao Dahai occupies one of the six fishing positions in the entire speedboat. The remaining five fishing positions are priced at 10,000 yuan per round, but Zhao Dahai is a master and the fish he caught in one day is far more than 10,000 yuan. There is no reason to agree to charter a boat.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang looked at the undulating sea surface, a little scared but gritted their teeth and strengthened their determination.

It doesn’t matter for other fish, but the scissor tail really can’t be missed. If you want to catch this kind of fish, you must have such sea conditions and a certain amount of waves before you can catch it. The opportunity is in front of him, especially since Zhao Dahai caught the horse fish just yesterday. If you miss an opportunity like this, it’s really hard to say when you will get another opportunity.

"fine!"

"We two can hold on!"

…

"I got used to it after spitting it out!"

…

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang were carrying things and trying to place them properly. A wave hit them and they shook a bit. Then another wave hit them. They were a little unsteady and sat down directly on the deck.

Zhao Dahai did not continue to persuade Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang. They were both veterans. It was not their first day fishing at sea, and they knew very well what the situation was like now.

Zhao Dahai walked over, carrying Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang's fishing boxes and placing them.

"Boss Wu."

"Boss Xu."

"Now prepare the fishing rod and tie the line set."

"The poles go into these pole covers."

“As soon as you get back to the fishing spot, you can start fishing immediately to save time.”

Zhao Dahai reminded to be prepared.

The waves here at the pier are already relatively big, and the waves will definitely be even bigger if you fish at a fishing spot. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang do not go out to sea all day long. If the waves are bigger, it will be more difficult to tie the fishing group.

Zhao Dahai took out a life jacket. There is no need to wear it in ordinary waves. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang had to put it on in waves like today. He also took out a raincoat.

Zhao Dahai waited for Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang to be ready, untied the cable of the speedboat, pulled up the anchor, stepped back, turned the bow of the speedboat, and drove directly to the open sea.

"Bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The speedboat jumped on the sea like a fish.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang sat on the lid of the large refrigerator behind the cockpit, with their heads lowered and their bodies turned sideways. The cockpit blocked most of them, but even so, the splashing sea water hit their bodies and made a crackling sound. Fortunately, Zhao Dahai had just brought his raincoat, otherwise he would have been soaked long ago.

Zhao Dahai carefully observed the sea surface while driving the speedboat.

The waves were almost the same as when I came back last night. They were a little bigger, so it would definitely be difficult to travel very far, but fishing for sea bass and fish on the islands and reefs was not a big problem.

Zhao Dahai slowly increased his speed.

Xu Yuanjiang and Wu Weimin's faces were as pale as paper.

The speed of the speedboat reached forty knots. With such a wave and such speed, the wave did not hit the speedboat, but directly hit him.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang gritted their teeth. They had to catch the tide when going fishing. As long as the sea conditions allowed, they would definitely get to the fishing spot as quickly as possible.

The sun is high in the sky.

The wind is not strong.

The waves are not small.

Zhao Dahai saw the small islands and reefs where sea bass and horse friends were fishing, and slowed down the speed of the speedboat. When it was five or six hundred meters away, it slowly floated on the sea.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang immediately rushed to the side of the speedboat, one to the left and the other to the right. They lay down with their heads stretched out, opened their mouths, and vomited. Not to mention the meal they had for lunch today, they all vomited the meal they had yesterday. I vomited all my tears and nose, and I vomited for five or six minutes before stopping.

Zhao Dahai took two bottles of mineral water and stopped at this distance just so that Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang could vomit hard and clear them up so they could go fishing in a while.

"ha!"

"The nesting material is ready for nesting!"

Wu Weimin rinsed his mouth, took several sips of mineral water, and felt much better after vomiting.

"What the hell!"

“It’s not easy to catch a fish!”

“I have to catch a scissortail today!”

Xu Yuanjiang finished drinking the water and wiped the corners of his mouth.

Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat and circled the periphery of the island twice, keeping an eye on fish detection and navigation. He had been here many times and the terrain was very familiar, but the tide was different every day, so he had to think carefully about it. Figure out how to fish and where to fish.

Zhao Dahai discovered that the seawater on the island reefs has become deeper today, almost one to two meters higher. Most of the reefs that were originally exposed to the sea are now under the seawater. The sea water flows faster than yesterday, and the waves are higher and bigger than yesterday. Looking around, there are areas of foam and whitecaps one after another.

Zhao Dahai raised his head and scanned the surroundings. There were not many speedboats going out to sea. There were no more than twenty boats in total. This was a good weather for sea bass fishing. However, the waves were too big and small speedboats did not dare to come. Big wooden fishing boats Most of them are fishing boats and cannot go out to sea during the fishing moratorium. The smaller ones are too slow and it is already dark when they arrive. It is not cost-effective to come to such a place.

"How about it?"

"Isn't it good to fish today?"

Wu Weimin immediately became nervous.

"Hehehe!"

"The water is deeper today, the waves are bigger, and the water is moving faster."

“For other fish, they probably won’t open their mouths, but it’s a good thing for sea bass fishing and stripper fishing.”

Zhao Dahai smiled and shook his head. The change in the speed of seawater waves has a great impact on fishing, but sea bass, especially horsetail fish, like to tell the current that today's sea conditions are a good influence.

"Boss Wu!"

"Boss Xu!"

"We'll try it outside later to see if there are any fish."

…

“If not, we’ll fish further in.”

…

Zhao Dahai made up his mind. The fish detector could see that there were fish, but if he couldn't fish, he had to try a few rods.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang began preparations immediately.

Zhao Dahai took his fishing rod, tied the line set and hung the live shrimp on the hook.

"Right in the middle of the bubble zone!"

Zhao Dahai drove his speedboat and approached a foam return area.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang immediately threw their poles out and landed in the center of the return flow area.

"Retract the line!"

"Tighten the wind line!"

Zhao Dahai loudly reminded Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang that there was a very likely chance of an interception. If the wind line was not tightened immediately, the fish that had been hooked was likely to run away.

"coming!"

"middle!"

Wu Weimin raised a pole to spear fish and a big curved bow.

"middle!"

"Mine is coming too!"

As soon as Xu Yuanjiang turned his head and glanced at Wu Weimin, he almost dragged the pole away from him.

"ha!"

"Is the seabass crazy here today?"

…

"Nice size!"

"It weighs two or three pounds!"

…

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang have rich experience. In just one or two minutes, the hooked fish was pulled out of the water and reached the edge of the speedboat. They picked it up with the net and cut it when it fell into the water. The fish was in a crazy mood.

"Be careful!"

"towel!"

"What are you doing?"

"We are all veterans! Don't make this mistake!"

When Zhao Dahai saw Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang reaching out to catch sea bass, he was not polite at all and roared loudly.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang were startled, reacted immediately, and retracted their hands.

"Don't get excited! Don't get excited!"

"It's just a sea bass that weighs two or three pounds, and it's not a big sea bass that weighs twenty or thirty pounds, let alone a scissortail that weighs twenty or thirty pounds!"

"You are just having fun when you come out to play with pictures! Don't cut your hands!"

Zhao Dahai continued to roar loudly. Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang are both experienced veterans. It’s not that they don’t know how powerful sea bass is, but they caught a fish in one rod and it wasn’t too small. They were so excited that they lost their minds. When you get on your own speedboat, you have to listen to the greetings and keep an eye on them at all times to avoid hurting yourself.

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang nodded immediately.

"quick!"

"Hurry up and try again to see if there's anything bigger!"

Zhao Dahai threw the rod, and as soon as the live shrimp fell into the water, he immediately made up his mind, raised the rod to stab the fish, and pulled the fish back in twos and twos. The two or three kilograms of fish flew directly onto the deck. He used a towel to cushion the sea bass and picked it. He picked up the hook and threw it into the living cabin at his feet.

"ha!"

"Another one!"

…

"It's really crazy!"

"Didn't these fish eat anything last night? Why are they all so hungry?!"

…

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang became more and more excited as they fished, and fish took the bait every time they threw their poles.

Zhao Dahai frowned. Today, the sea water here flows faster and there are more and larger foam areas. Sea bass like this place very much, and it happens to be the opening season. In addition, the waves were too big today, there were not many speedboats going out to sea, and no one was grabbing fish. The fish situation is indeed very crazy, but the fish caught are all small.

In less than an hour, Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang each caught a dozen sea bass. The largest was only two or three pounds, and most were one pound.

"ha!"

"Zhao Dahai."

"What's wrong?"

Wu Weimin had just caught a sea bass. He took off the hook and turned to look at Zhao Dahai with his brows furrowed, a little strange.

Zhao Dahai pointed to the sea bass that Wu Weimin had just caught and was jumping around on the deck and shook his head. It was too small.

Wu Weimin lowered his head and looked at the seabass at his feet. He didn't think so, but he found that it was indeed a bit small.

"ah?"

"Isn't this a good head?"

Xu Yuanjiang was stunned for a moment. The largest fish weighed two or three kilograms and had a strong pulling force. Indeed, most of them were one kilogram, but big fish couldn't be everywhere.

Zhao Dahai shook his head. He was engaged in production purely to make money. For example, Zhong Shizhu and a few of him were on the speedboat. There was nothing wrong with two or three kilograms or even one or two kilograms of sea bass. He took Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang out to catch a few fish of this size. Once you get the hang of it, there is no need to continue fishing. For a boat fee of several thousand dollars, you have to catch many fish to get your money back, not to mention that today’s target is a horse friend.

"There are two or three kilograms of small sea bass all around here."

"More in, there are fewer fish but they are bigger."

"It's hard to tell if you have any horse friends. At least you have to find a way to catch a few sea bass weighing more than ten kilograms or even twenty kilograms!"

Zhao Dahai pointed to the inside of the island.

When Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang heard about the sea bass weighing more than ten or twenty kilograms, their eyes lit up, and they immediately nodded and put away their poles.

Zhao Dahai drove the speedboat and started to drive towards the inside of the island and reef.

Zhao Dahai has been here several times and is very familiar with the situation here. He clearly remembers the location of each rock.

The rising sea water submerged a lot of rocks, but it did not affect the boat. The speed was not fast, but it slowly approached the center of the island.

Zhao Dahai looked at the large foam area almost fifty meters away from him and shook his head.

Yesterday I caught sea bass and jackfish in that place.

Today, the water flow is faster and the waves are bigger. Especially in front of the foam area, there is a very large current, rushing around the island, very fast.

Zhao Dahai tried it, but it was a bit dangerous, so he gave up immediately. He turned around and looked around, chose another large bubble area, turned the ship's bow and drove over.

"Come!"

"try it!"

“Let’s see if we can catch sea bass weighing more than ten pounds here.”

Zhao Dahai pointed to a large foam area of ​​about 100 square meters. The sea water was constantly rotating, and the waves were lapping one after another against a nearby reef that was only about one meter high. People often gathered in places like this. Very big fish.

"ha!"

"This one weighs at least five or six pounds!"

…

"coming!"

"big!"

"This ten-pound one is here!"

…

“It feels really good!”

…

Wu Weimin and Xu Yuanjiang threw their poles out and immediately caught fish. Each one was bigger than the previous one and had full pulling power.

Wu Weimin caught five or six shrimps in one breath and stopped, wiped the sweat on his forehead, panted heavily, caught a live shrimp, hung it on the hook, and threw it out.

Wu Weimin immediately tightened the wind line. After waiting for a while and there was no movement, he gently lifted the pole. The lead fell to the bottom and scraped against the reef. The pole paused and suddenly bent down crazily and directly touched the sea water.

Wu Weimin was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing, and he immediately raised his hand to stab the fish.

"big!"

"This one is big!"

Wu Weimin shouted excitedly.

Xu Yuanjiang stood aside and turned to look at the curve of the fishing rod in Wu Weimin's hand, and immediately became nervous.

"Scissor tail!?"

"Did you really come?!"

Xu Yuanjiang immediately put away his fishing rod, worried that his line would get tangled with Wu Weimin's line.

"have no idea!"

"The pull is very strong!"

"What the hell!"

"It's like a tractor can't pull it at all!"

…

"Qualified!"

"ah!"

"The wheels are going to smoke!"

…

Wu Weimin's face turned red from holding back the bait. The fish that took the bait fled forward crazily. It was so powerful that his hands holding the fishing rod couldn't stretch at all and began to tremble.

"Scissor Tail!"

"It's really possible to be scissors tail!"

"No wire lead!"

"quick!"

"Pull it back quickly!"

Xu Yuanjiang was very anxious. The steel wire leader is hard and unnatural, and the effect of fishing for sea bass is poor. I thought of fishing for sea bass first, and then change the steel wire leader later in the fishing period or once a fish gets hooked and breaks the line, but I didn't expect it to happen now. .

"Can't pull!"

"Too much force!"

Wu Weimin gritted his teeth and shook his head.

"Lock release force!"

"Hurry up and lock down the force!"

"pull!"

"Hard pull back!"

"As for the scissor tail, if you don't pull it back quickly, it will break!"

Xu Yuanjiang jumped up and down anxiously.

Wu Weimin gasped for air, raised his head and looked at the pole that formed the big curved bow and the tightly stretched thread, then looked down at the spinning wheel that was spinning crazily in front of him, gritted his teeth, and raised his left hand.

"slow!"

"Do not worry!"

Zhao Dahai was startled when he saw Wu Weimin trying to unscrew the force. He shouted, "If the big fish is hooked, you can't just unscrew the force."

"Hold!"

…

"Not Scissortail!"

"Sea bass!"

"Twenty to thirty catties of sea bass!"

…

Zhao Dahai looked at the speed at which the pole in Wu Weimin's hand came out of the line. It was 100% impossible to be a scissor tail, just a big sea bass.

"Bow!"

…

"Don't stand up the pole!"

"Keep it down!"

…

"Dry!"

"Keep it down!"

"Hurry and lower it!"

"Keep the fish out of water!"

"As soon as you wash your cheeks with water, it will fall off immediately!"

…

Zhao Dahai shouted as he drove the speedboat and drove out slowly. The hooked sea bass ran forward crazily. There were many rocks around and they were afraid of the line grinding.

"alright!"

"Now reel in the line and return to the fish!"

…

"One lap of relief!"

…

"Semi-circle!"

…

"Press the pole!"

"Dry!"

"Never lift the pole!"

…

"Quarter of force relief!"

…

"OK!"

"The force release cannot be locked!"

…

Zhao Dahai controlled the speedboat with his left hand and stared at the pole in Wu Weimin's hand.

"The sea bass is at its limit!"

…

"Reel the line! Return the fish!"

…

"One after another!"

"Do not worry!"

…

Zhao Dahai reminded loudly that you must not be in a hurry when fishing for big fish, and you must be calm at the end.

Wu Weimin gasped for air, almost exhausted all his strength, his hands kept shaking, and he almost couldn't hold the pole, so he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

"coming!"

"Saw the fish!"

…

"Thirty pounds!"

"A sea bass of about thirty pounds!"

…

Zhao Dahai saw the fish, looked back at Wu Weimin, and found that Xu Yuanjiang was holding the net with both hands and holding it high.

"Boss Xu!"

"Put down the net!"

"It will scare the fish!"

Zhao Dahai immediately shouted, "Big fish are very smart, especially big sea bass. They will be frightened and struggle when they see the net being copied. If they jump up and shake their heads to wash their gills, they will most likely break the line and run away from the fish."

Xu Yuanjiang immediately put down the net.

"Not urgent!"

"The hook is very strong!"

…

"right!"

"Press the pole!"

…

"Come!"

"Pull over slowly!"

…

Zhao Dahai controlled the speedboat with his left hand and picked up the large net with his right hand. When he saw the fish swimming to the edge of the speedboat, he suddenly grabbed it from the fish's head.

"Loose the thread!"

Zhao Dahai shouted.

Wu Weimin moved his hand and loosened the thread of the spinning wheel. When he saw the whole sea bass in the net, he couldn't hold on and sat down on the deck.
