Chapter 177 Battle of Hundreds of Ships Before the Typhoon

Zhao Dahai boarded Zhong Shizhu's fishing boat and took a look. He was really preparing a hand-line fishing rig. It was very simple. It was a three-way figure-eight ring. One end was tied with the main line, the other was tied with the sub-line, and the hook was tied to the sub-line. The rest A place to hang a lead pendant.

"Uncle Shizhu."

"What are you doing? Are you planning to go fishing?"

As Zhao Dahai spoke, he looked at Liu Bin and Lei Dayou on the fishing boat next door. They were both tying hand wire fishing rigs. The other ten or eight fishing boats around were doing the same thing. These fishing boats usually all go out to sea to fish, but now all of them are doing the same thing. Switch to fishing.

Zhong Shizhu pointed to the northwest corner, where someone caught a red spot.

Zhao Dahai suddenly realized. There is a place in the sea in the northwest corner of the village with several small islands. The bottom of the sea is full of large and small reefs, which are most suitable for groupers or other bottom fish to grow. However, bottom fish like groupers usually hide on the rocks. In the hole, it is not easy to fish or capture.

It is now the eve of a major typhoon, and the swell in the sea is very strong. Groupers or other bottom fish that usually hide in holes cannot bear to come out, and the chance of catching them is very high.

"The sea."

"It's typhoon weather and you can't catch much fish elsewhere. Why don't we go to that place to try our luck?!"

Zhong Shizhu tied a hook, bit the thread with his teeth and pulled hard.

Zhao Dahai was moved when he heard this. I fished well in the oyster field today, but before I came back, someone had already followed suit. Everyone will definitely be fishing at the bottom of the pile tomorrow, and there will be more fish than enough. The key is that I fished once today, and it is really unlikely that there will be many fish tomorrow. When I came back, I was thinking about where to go fishing in the days before the typhoon. Zhong Shizhu's proposal was exactly what he wanted. The price of grouper or other bottom fish is relatively high, and you can make money if you catch one, two, or two pounds each in a day.

Zhao Dahai asked Zhong Shizhu to help him look at the fishing boats. He quickly went home and drove a tricycle over. He caught the black sea bream and put it in the water tank. The oysters he bought were put into baskets and moved to the car. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou agreed. Treat everyone to a meal when the typhoon comes and you can’t go out to sea.

When Zhao Dahai returned home, he put the baskets of oysters in the corner of the wall, out of the sun. They would not die for ten or eight days. When the typhoon came, he would invite Zhong Shizhu and the others to dinner, and put the live black sea bream in the live fish pond. They are raising them inside. The panzi caught yesterday will not be sold for now. The dead black sea bream caught today are all kept in the refrigerator. They will be sold in two days when there are not many fishing boats going out to sea. The price will be at least 20% higher.

Zhao Dahai hurried out on a tricycle, rushed to the town and went directly to the fishing tackle shop. The probability of fishing in the reef area was very high, so he had to prepare enough fishing lines, hooks and lead pendants. The ones at home were not enough, so he bought two No. 10 and 30 fishing lines, fish hooks and lead pendants. Fishing with hand wire is simple, but you have to buy suitable fishing lines and fish hooks. I don’t know if the current will be strong or fast tomorrow. Lead pendants of various weights are required. Be prepared.

Zhao Dahai finished buying fishing lines, fish hooks and lead weights, and bought twenty kilograms of live shrimps, all of which were prawns as big as two fingers. He also bought some other things useful for fishing before going home.

night.

The fishing village is very quiet after dark.

Occasionally, you can hear a dog barking or a child crying.

The weather was very muggy.

Zhao Dahai tied a fishing rig with hand wire in the yard.

There are five pairs of fishing lines tied to No. 20, and five pairs of fishing lines tied to No. 30.

All the remaining spare hooks and lead weights were sorted out, and a few pairs of labor protection gloves were also taken, which are indispensable for hand fishing, and they were all arranged neatly.

Hand wire is a traditional fishing rig that does not use a fishing rod but directly pulls the main line to fish. There will definitely be a lot of fishing boats on the reef tomorrow. The fishing rod cannot be extended and it is very easy to bump into other people's fishing boats. The hand wire fishing group is very flexible and more convenient. In addition, the advantage of fishing with hand wire is that you can know immediately whether a fish has taken the bait by the feeling on your fingers. The disadvantage is that once a fish takes the bait, especially a big fish, without the elastic buffer of the fishing rod, the probability of the fish running away will be very high.

"grandmother."

"I'll go fishing early tomorrow morning."

"That place at Paohai Reef. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and the others are leaving together in their fishing boat."

Zhao Dahai talked about his plans to go out to sea tomorrow. He would definitely not go alone. He would just fish nearby so that he could not be caught, so as not to worry his grandma Zhong Cuihua.

"OK."

"I see!"

Zhong Cuihua nodded. There was a typhoon, but the distance was relatively far. It was impossible to hide at home all the time. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da walked together, so it was very safe.

Zhao Dahai tidied up his things, packed them up, looked at the black sea bream in the fish pond, which was oxygenated and filtered by a water pump, and was jumping around. He opened the refrigerator to see if there was no ice and covered it again, and went to bed early.

Zhao Dahai got up at four o'clock in the morning to cook breakfast, load the rice, and went out with the fishing gear, live shrimps and other things for fishing that he had prepared yesterday. He got on the fishing boat, the fishing gear was placed, and the live shrimps were kept in In the cabin, just after finishing their work, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da came together. They were all veterans and had only ten minutes to prepare.

Zhong Shizhu shouted, and the fishing boat was the first to leave the dock. Lei Dayou and Liu Bin followed, and Zhao Dahai followed last.

It was just after five in the morning.

It was pitch black on the sea.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat and looked forward. Outside the fishing boats of Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, there were many other fishing boats. When he looked back behind him, there were also many fishing boats following.

Before the typhoon, there were not many places to fish. People who fished knew how to fish, and people who went out to sea and put fishing nets to fish knew how to fish. In addition, news spread that valuable fish like red spots had been caught, and everyone gathered together.

Zhao Dahai's face tightened. He didn't know how many people and fishing boats there would be when he arrived at the fishing spot.

It was getting brighter.

The swell was much bigger than yesterday, and the sea surface was undulating like a wheat field with constant waves of wheat.

Zhao Dahai drove the fishing boat steadily, closely following Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou in front, and continued to drive forward to see several small islands in the distance.

Zhao Dahai wiped the seawater on his face and breathed a sigh of relief. The swell was quite big. The fishing boat bounced up and then crashed back to the sea. It was difficult to control the direction of the fishing boat. Every time the fishing boat bounced up and crashed back to the sea, it was like a hammer hitting the sea. I could take one or two blows on my chest, but dozens or hundreds of blows in succession made me very uncomfortable and I really wanted to spit it out.

Zhao Dahai saw Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou in front of him slowing down. He immediately released the accelerator and the fishing boat slowed down. Looking forward, he saw on the visible sea surface, one fishing boat, and then another. ship.

Dry!

There must be more than fifty fishing boats, right?

Zhao Dahai was a little stunned. I knew there would be a lot of fishing boats, but I didn't expect there to be so many fishing boats. I looked back behind me and saw that more fishing boats were coming.

"Hahahahaha!"

"The sea!"

"At this time of year, there must be at least two to three hundred fishing boats in this place."

"Looking across the entire sea, you can't even see the end. Where it is."

Liu Bin looked at Zhao Dahai on the fishing boat next to him and laughed loudly.

"Why!"

"What can this say?"

"Let's do it!"

Zhao Dahai shook his head.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou knew that Zhao Dahai had rich experience in fishing. Before going out to sea, they had already mentioned the things that should be paid attention to here, especially the "rules" of fishing here. Without any hesitation, the four people and four fishing boats immediately made preparations individually. , start fishing.

Zhao Dahai came here to fish for the first time, but after looking at the fishing boats around him, he knew how to fish. There was a sea area in the middle of several small islands where the water flow was obviously bigger and faster than other places around it. Zhong Shizhu I have said that there is not much flowing water in this place usually. Only when there is a strong typhoon, a large flowing water will form. Live shrimps are hung on the hooks, and the fishing boats sail into the flowing water and swell area, and float forward with the flowing water and swell.

Zhao Dahai threw the lead pendant into the sea, followed by the hung live shrimp. He waited for a long time before reaching the bottom. The water was 30 meters deep. He pulled it up and it didn't move. He pulled it again and it didn't move. He was very helpless. , teach yourself a lesson as soon as you come in, hang the bottom the first time.

Zhao Dahai didn't hesitate. The line in his hand was directly wrapped around an iron hook on the side of the fishing boat. The No. 20 line could not be broken by his own hands. He used the weight of the fishing boat to slowly tighten it and break it. Pull it up and take a look. Not only was the hook and lead pendant missing, but ten meters of the main line was broken, and dozens of pieces of fish scales were missing at once.

Zhao Dahai shook his head. Fishing in reef areas, especially unfamiliar reef areas, is such a virtue. He accidentally caught the bottom, put away the line, and immediately picked up another line group that had been tied earlier to hang the live shrimp. Keep fishing.

The surge is getting bigger and bigger.

The fishing boat undulated even more, rising to the top of the swell, then falling down, and people were suspended in the air. There was a feeling of weightlessness, but the reaction force of the fishing boat hitting the sea immediately hit me, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Zhao Dahai looked around. There were many people on many fishing boats lying hunched over the side of the boat, and there were waves of vomiting. With such a gushing, anyone could get seasick.

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth, his stomach was churning, and he rushed to his throat and swallowed it back. At this moment, the thread in his hand tightened, and he immediately pulled it hard, motionless.

Dry!

Hanged again!

Zhao Dabai was excited for a moment, thinking that a fish had taken the bait, but he caught the bottom again. The line was wrapped around the side of the boat and the iron hook broke it. It fell off. Hold the thread with your fingers and smooth it. There are no burrs and it is intact. No matter whether it is the sub-line or the main line that is broken in places like reefs, you must check it when you pull it up. If there are burrs, you must cut them off to avoid catching fish and breaking the line. You can pat your thighs, catch big fish and catch valuable fish, you may only get one bite in a day. If you miss it, you will regret it.

Zhao Dahai looked at the time and saw it was almost noon. When it was time for lunch that he had agreed with Zhong Shizhu and the others, the fishing boat sailed out of the flowing water area between several small islands. He went to the place where the boat parked when he came over in the morning and looked for it. Zhong Shizhu A few people had already come out and were chatting and smoking. They drove over immediately.

"Dry!"

“This fish is so difficult to catch!”

…

"Hang to death!"

"I hung up more than a dozen times in the morning!"

"The fish was not caught and one or two hundred dollars was lost!"

…

"Are there any fish in the sea? I don't see many fishing boats catching fish! There are no fish this year, right? If you don't make any money, you might as well stay at home!"

…

“The surge is really big this year!”

"I vomited twice! I can't eat!"

…

Zhao Dahai ate the rice in big gulps. He had to force it down even if he couldn't eat anymore. People are like iron rice and steel. If they don't eat enough, they won't have the energy to fish in the afternoon.

After Zhao Dahai finished eating, he immediately started tying the fishing gear. When he came out, he tied five pairs of No. 20 lines and No. 30 lines each. It took less than two hours to finish them all. Later, he had to tie them now, which was too troublesome. Be more prepared, have a good fight in the afternoon, and tie up twenty spare pairs in one go.

Zhao Dahai tied up the fishing gear. Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou wanted to rest for a while and made an appointment to go home together at this place at five o'clock. They drove the fishing boat to the flowing water area first.

"What the hell!"

"Don't believe it!"

"I must catch it!"

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and vowed to catch fish.
