Chapter 16

"Strange, where are the fish?"

Chu Yang asked his question to the sea.

Half an hour had passed since he put the hook in, and he hadn't caught a single crab, let alone a fish.

"It's not like that on the Internet. Those anchors would catch fish as soon as the hook was in place."

Looking at the deep sea, Chu Yang seriously suspected that the videos he had watched before were all fake, and he had rewarded them.

Fuck!

"Don't worry, sea fishing is like this, maybe there will be a surprise in the next second." Sun Qingjun advised.

Another half an hour later, Sun Qingjun looked at Chu Yang, who was still like an old monk in meditation, and scratched his head.

"How about lunch first?"

"Okay."

He was sure that he really didn't have much talent for fishing, just an air force marshal.

If it weren't for the system, he would probably starve to death as a fisherman.

"I still have to cheat in the future. If I don't use the cheat, it will be a waste of time."

Chu Yang began to put away the silk reel.

He had been hungry for a long time, and originally wanted to catch a fish to prove himself, but now it seems...

He was thinking about finding a reason to ask Sun Qingjun to turn to the treasure chest refresh point later, and the fishing line in the water was almost reeled in.

But at this moment, a resistance came from the fishing line.

He lifted the line, "Did you hook the garbage?"

The next second, the fishing line in his hand was "whoosh" and was pulled back into the sea, and even the hand reel was almost taken away.

"Fuck, I caught a fish!"

Chu Yang exclaimed, his voice trembling.

Sun Qingjun smiled and reminded: "Hold the hand reel steady, and reel in the line with the gloved hand. The fishing line is very sharp. If you encounter a big fish rushing forward, it can cut off your fingers."

Chu Yang didn't say a word. He now had to concentrate on dealing with the "giant" under the sea.

The hand reel has no force relief, so there is no need to pay attention to skills when encountering a big fish, just pull it.

If you really encounter a big fish that you can't pull, you can either reel the line in and let it go a little, or cut the line.

Although the fish that has been hooked now has a lot of strength, it is not to the extent that you need to let go of the line.

Chu Yang steadily reeled in the line, and when the resistance on his hand became greater and the fish rushed forward, he stiffened for a moment.

When the strength decreased, he quickly reeled in the line.

After more than ten minutes of back and forth, the line that was released was finally almost reeled in, and the fish also surfaced.

"Not big."

Chu Yang glanced at it and was a little disappointed.

"It's normal. The strength of sea fish is much greater than that of freshwater fish. A half-pound sea bass can pull out the feeling of a seven- or eight-pound carp." Sun Qingjun explained with a smile while holding the fishing net next to him.

When the fish's strength was almost exhausted, he saw the right time and pulled the fish steadily into the net.

"Red snapper, we call it red chicken in our dialect, good fish."

Red snapper

Chu Yang also changed his disappointment, and held the red fish in his hands with a smile on his face, and looked at it carefully.

I saw that its body was flat and tall, with a pair of large pectoral fins under the gill bones, and a deep red fish line parallel to the dorsal fin on its back.

"This is the red snapper."

Chu Yang had seen and eaten this thing in his previous life, but it was cooked.

It's the first time it's so lively like now.

"Quick, take a picture for me!"

Chu Yang handed his mobile phone to Sun Qingjun, asking him to help find a good angle and take a picture as a souvenir.

Although it was only three or four pounds, this was the first sea fish he caught with his own ability, and it was worth commemorating.

"Okay, eggplant."

With a "click", the picture of Chu Yang holding the fish with his white teeth bared was frozen in the frame.

After taking the photo, Sun Qingjun took the awl and poked the fish's belly.

"Sea fish need to be deflated after being caught, otherwise the pressure difference between the inside and outside will be too large, and the fish will swell and burst."

"I know this, I've heard others mention it."

Chu Yang nodded and observed the big red chicken thrown into the live water tank. Sure enough, it was alive and well.

Of course, it was only okay for a short time, and it would not survive if it was thrown back into the sea.

"Are you still eating?" Sun Qingjun asked.

Chu Yang had already put fish intestines on the lead hook again.

"Why eat when you have fish to catch?"

He threw the hook out with a "whoosh".

Sun Qingjun said: "Okay, then I'll go fishing with you."

Red snappers live in groups, and generally catching one means there is at least a small school of fish underneath.

And the meat of this fish is thick and tender, and it tastes good whether steamed or braised. It is also red, and the price is always good, so it is worth fishing.

In this way, the two of them put down their hand fishing lines on the left and right.

Perhaps they really encountered a school of fish, and Chu Yang soon felt a pulling sensation on his hand again.

He held the reel and pulled it up suddenly.

The force from the end of the fishing line suddenly increased, and it was obvious that the fish was in pain and began to struggle.

"Haha, give it to me." Chu Yang became more and more excited.

With the experience of the first time, he was not in a hurry. He held the reel and made deep and shallow contact with the fish.Pull.

Ten minutes later, another red snapper landed steadily.

This one was a little smaller than the previous one, but it was also over two kilograms.

"Sure, the farmed red snapper is now priced at 30, and the wild one is estimated to be over 50. Your two are worth at least four hundred."

Sun Qingjun was very happy for Chu Yang. After all, he was on his boat. If he got nothing, he, the captain of the boat, would be too embarrassed.

Of course, he was also a little jealous while he was happy. These were not fish, but red banknotes.

"Keep going!"

Chu Yang was so happy when two red snappers landed. This feeling was simply overwhelming.

No wonder people often say that if you hate someone, take him fishing. It's too easy to get addicted.

It's just that Chu Yang's novice protection period is a bit short. After catching two big fish, he returned to his original state.

Sun Qingjun, on the other hand, caught a black snapper, weighing three kilograms.

Although the unit price is not as high as the red snapper that Chu Yang caught, it is also worth a hundred yuan, and today's fuel expenses are saved.

"Forget it, let's eat first."

After waiting for another half an hour, Chu Yang finally gave up this fishing spot.

Peel two boiled eggs, take a bite of egg and a bite of pickled vegetables, and take water when they are dry.

Sun Qingjun brought steamed buns with salted fish. Chu Yang picked up a piece and tried it, and almost choked to death.

After lunch, they lay on the boat to rest for a while. Sun Qingjun started to collect the longline fishing, and Chu Yang helped on the side.

But the two pulled for dozens of meters, but they were all empty hooks.

"It seems that the situation is not optimistic." Chu Yang thought to himself.

Sun Qingjun's face was not very good, but he still tried not to get angry.

"Maybe there are fewer fish in shallow water, just wait until it's deeper."

When the main cable of the longline fishing was pulled up by one-third, fish finally began to be caught one after another.

But all the fish caught were worthless small fish, such as small yellowfin snapper and small rock snapper. No valuable fish were seen.

After the two groups of longline fishing were finished, there was only half a basin of miscellaneous fish in total.

"Fuck (a kind of plant)!"

Sun Qingjun finally couldn't help it and grabbed a struggling stone nine-headed fish and threw it on the sea.

After a few seconds, the stone nine-headed fish floated up again with dead fish eyes...

At this time, Chu Yang spoke:

"Uncle Qingjun, how about we go north again?"

Sun Qingjun thought about it. It was already half past two anyway. There might not be enough time for longline fishing. It's better to do a favor.

"Okay, but don't go too far."

"It's okay, just try your luck." Chu Yang said indifferently.
