Chapter 178 Consecutive Big Red Moray
Early next morning, Ye Yaodong got up and opened the window to check the weather.
It was cloudy, there was no wind, the ground was dry, and there was no rain at night, so we could go to sea.
He put on his clothes with a rustle, and the two children were sleeping crookedly on the bed. He took the quilt and covered the two of them. It's very cold in the morning and evening, so don't catch a cold.
Originally made a small bed for the room, but the boss was unwilling to sleep, and insisted on squeezing with them. He waited for a good day to beat him and let him move over.
It's so big, and it's too shameless to sleep next to his mother all day long.
After a brief wash, porridge with pickled mustard and dried fish, and after filling his stomach, he poured the bowl of sea centipede left yesterday into the bucket, greeted his wife, and listened to her instructions. He took two big pieces of rice cakes she had fried and two baskets of coiled fishing line and went out to sea.
The ground cage just received the goods yesterday, so he didn’t need to collect them today. He just collected one casually and didn’t have much, mainly to use it as bait. Sea centipedes are a bit extravagant to use as bait. He didn’t take much, and he still needs some small fish Shrimp.
After receiving it, he rowed the boat to the place where the row hook was placed. The surrounding sea area was only that big, so he was not afraid that he might not be able to find it.
After finding the familiar buoy, he stopped the boat and began to take up the line. He didn't know what good goods he could get today after throwing the rake into the sea overnight.
This means that it can only be close to the shore. If it is far away, you still have to retract the line every day.
He began to reel in the line with great anticipation, and the first fish surprised him, grouper!
Looking at the blue spots on the surface of the water, he instantly smiled. It was the blue melon seed grouper.
He was even happier when he pulled it ashore. This fish was estimated to weigh 8 catties.
The blue melon seed grouper is a fine-spotted grouper, with a flat body like a melon seed. The body color is mostly light blue, sometimes white and sometimes black. Some fish have some light brown spots on their bodies. but not.
The common size is about two or three catties, and there are also individuals that exceed four or five catties or even ten catties, and the individual size of more than ten catties is already very good. This species of grouper is relatively large in size, and it is a local tyrant among groupers. It has the reputation of "sea chicken".
Ye Yaodong muttered, "The head and belly can be steamed, the fish meat can be fried, and the fish bones can be boiled in soup... Forget it, just think about it."
Although the fish list is worth money, but the weight is there, and it is already dead. It is not as good as yesterday's devil fish. This one is worth about 20 yuan, and it is a good start!
When he caught the first fish, he also saw a small boat heading towards this sea area from afar. It was Ah Zheng and the two little guys coming over.
After taking a look, he collected his own line, and finally received 3 catfish weighing about 2 catties. He had a hunch that there would be no shortage of catfish in the future, and this fish was a group activity.
"Dongzi, why are you here so early?"
"Well, I didn't take back the thread yesterday, so if you don't worry, come out and collect it earlier."
"How is it?"
Ye Yaodong smiled and let go of the main thread first, and showed them the blue melon seed grouper.
"Fuck!" The two said a mantra in unison!
"It's okay, you have to focus on quality and weight, right? You've got a good start, and your luck shouldn't be bad today."
Xiaoxiao said sourly: "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have come to say hello. It's too early in the morning to attract people's envy! Let's go, let's go to release the row hook."
Ye Yaodong waited for them to leave, and then continued to take up the line, but suddenly he felt that the main line could not be pulled at all, and he was overjoyed, could there be a big one? It can't even be pulled.
He continued to pull hard, but still couldn't pull it. He couldn't help but wonder, how big is this fish?
After thinking about it, he still rowed the boat forward for a certain distance, and then continued to take up the line. Unexpectedly, he saw a mess of knotted lines!
It turned out that the main line and the line hanging on the fishhook were completely entangled together, forming a big ball.
"Grass, I thought it was a big fish, but I can't even pull it. It's a bitch, I was played."
He pulled up the rope cursingly, trying to untie it, but found that it was difficult to untie it, and it took a little time. Now he is busy taking up the line, so he can only slowly untie it after returning home in the evening.
Jumping over the knotted thread, he continued to collect it along the rope. This time it was a big red moray eel, which was estimated to weigh seven catties. Looking at the figure of this big red eel, he felt depressed all of a sudden. It was smoothed out.
This is a big red moray that strangled itself to death!
Moray eels like to curl their bodies after biting the hook. During the frenzied twisting, it becomes more and more entangled with the fishing line, entering an endless loop that cannot be jumped out, and finally strangles itself to death.
He cut the limp red moray eel off the hook, threw it into the bucket, and resumed reeling.
Immediately afterwards was another red eel weighing seven to eight catties. At this time, the bait was still hanging on the hook. This bait was a small fish that Ye Yaodong casually hung yesterday. The red moray eel can't get away with just one bite.
It is true that life is impermanent, the large intestine wraps the small intestine!
I don’t know why, but suddenly there are a lot more big red eels today.
Unexpectedly, another one came up right after, this one was bigger than the previous two, this time the hook was hung very deep, maybe one fishhook was too small, and the moray eel was too big, it just swallowed the fishhook Go in, all through its jaws.
The appearance of the moray eel was terrifying, but now it opened its huge mouth, revealing its fangs that it had never brushed before, as if it was not convinced at all and roared.
Ye Yaodong had no choice but to pick up a knife and perform a minor operation on it. He took out the hook and threw it on the boat. He repaired it when he took it back at night, and threw the fish back into the bucket by the way.
He harvested three more moray eels at once, and Ye Yaodong's confidence doubled again. He collected several in a row and there was no empty pipe, except that the main line in front was entangled by fish hooks. At night, unless the bait is eaten, the big fish will run away.
He happily continued to receive the goods. Sure enough, there were no empty hooks in the next one. The worst was a 5-jin fool. As he expected, there were the most catfish.
It’s okay, as long as it’s not cheap and dead fish is the most. The catfish is worth 20 cents per catty. The quality is not good, but there is still weight and quantity.
Loading goods one after another, when he came across the junction of two baskets of fishing lines, he looked forward to it again, good guy, it was another big red eel, and it was still alive.
Ye Yaodong grabbed it by the head after dragging it up, took off his rain boots and knocked it unconscious before taking the hook. It was so big, if it took a bite, he would have to lose a large piece of flesh.
It's not easy to grow some flesh these days.
