My Deep-sea Fishery

On the deck, a group of people sat around and had breakfast.

The breakfast is very rich. In addition to the essential eggs and fruits, there are also various flavors of yogurt and corn dog sausage. These are all unlimited. You can eat whatever you like, as much as you want, Xiang Yang I feel that the crew members follow their own actions, and it is really unreasonable if the crew members are stuck with food.

After breakfast, Xu Fang has already sailed the fishing boat out of the sea area of ​​Qinglong Bend, where the sea water is clear, and few ships arrive, and the fishery resources are relatively rich.

"Go to the Internet cafe!" Zhou Wang said.

"You can get off the net." Xiang Yang nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Master Xu, the boat will stop after getting off the net in a while, and I want to go to the sea."

"Received." Xu Fang's voice came from the intercom. Although he didn't know what Xiang Yang was going to do in the sea, he absolutely obeyed Xiang Yang's orders.

Zhou Wang got Xiang Yang's consent, and immediately ran back to the winch to control the fishing net into the sea.

Chen Qingsheng walked to Xiang Yang's side, "We won't drag the net anymore, just wait here?"

"I won't be trawling for the time being, but I'm not just waiting." Xiang Yang gave He Mingde a wink, and He Mingde immediately understood, and ran into the cabin with two sailors.

After a while, they brought out two big boxes from the cabin.

"Is this a shrimp trap?" Chen Qingsheng took out a piece of plastic fiber from the frame, and each section looked like bamboo, and he was uncertain.

"This is a ground cage, and it can also be called a shrimp trap." He Mingde said with a smile: "Don't look at the many entrances in this cage, but in fact its internal structure is very complicated, and there is not even a single exit. As long as the shrimp enters, it is impossible to enter the cage." come out."

The ground cage is also called the ecstasy array, because this tool is sunk into the mud, so it is named the ground cage.

The ground cage has many knots, and each node is connected to each other. When in use, tie a heavy thing to the tail and a strong rope to the upper part. After throwing it into the water, tie the rope to a fixed object and fix it.

The length of the ground cage can be determined according to the length and width of the water surface, generally about 15 knots, and the total length is about 7 to 8 meters.

Xiang Chen thought, "Can the ground cage be used on the bottom of the sea?" The ground cage was originally a tool used in ponds in the Central Plains to catch eels, loaches, river shrimps and small fish, etc., and it was gradually spread to the coastal areas. Seaside fishermen use less.

"The ground cage is a fixed fishing gear. It can be used for fishing all year round. It can be used on the bottom of the sea or the bottom of the lake. Put the ground cage on the bottom of the sea and fish it every few days. You will definitely get a lot of fish and shrimp." Xiang Yang said.

"Come here once in a few days?" Chen Qingsheng frowned, "But it's okay. After we go to sea, we have to go through this sea area no matter which direction we go, but do we have to go to sea every few days, or go to the ocean? If so, I have to go home every few days? This is not very good."

"Who said that?" Xiang Yang said with a smile: "This sea area is just outside the sea area of ​​Qinglong Bend. It takes a long time to row a boat, but if a fishing boat with an engine is installed, it will actually take more than half an hour. If we go out to sea in the future When it’s time to go fishing, just drop by to fish, and when it’s not out to sea, send someone to rent an engine fishing boat to come over, that’s all.”

"Then what if we go to the ocean and don't come back for ten days and half a month?" Fang Youqun asked.

Xiang Yang rolled his eyes, "Won't you fish up the ground cage when you go out to sea for deep-sea fishing?"

Chen Qingsheng fiddled with the ground cage and said: "I have seen similar cages in the Zhoushan Fishing Ground, and they can often catch dozens of large lobsters in one go, but their cages seem to be more advanced than ours, and there are still some lobsters on the sea surface. Fixed stakes are used to secure the cage."

"They use special shrimp traps, so it's fine for us to use ground cages." Xiang Yang began to put on his diving suit, "If you are willing to go with me to the sea to release ground cages, you should take the initiative to sign up. We will go there after the ground cages are placed. Take a walk around the bottom of the sea to see if there are swimming crabs and the like, catch some up, and I will give bonuses to those who go down depending on the situation."

He Mingde took out another plastic bag from the cabin. Open it, and inside is a whole bag of chicken racks.

If you use ground cages to catch shrimp, the best bait is leftover chicken bones, because shrimp especially like to eat chicken, so using chicken as bait has the best lure effect.

If you can't get chicken bones in a short time, you can go to the place where chickens are killed in the vegetable market to buy chicken intestines and put them in shrimp pots to catch shrimps.

Of course, that's for general interest enthusiasts.

For fishers like Xiang Yang who specialize in fishing as a career, chicken bones are not good enough, and they must use the best ones. They directly buy chicken racks with meat as bait.

"How many chicken racks are placed in each cage?" Chen Qingsheng asked Xiang Yang.

"How much is enough? If you want lobsters to be hooked, you have to be willing to spend a lot of money. Put a chicken rack in each section of the cage." He Mingde said.

Chen Qingsheng looked at Xiang Yang. There are fifteen sections in a ground cage. Putting one in each section is equivalent to fifteen chicken racks. The cost is not low. If you can't catch lobsters, you will die? Chen Qingsheng felt that it was better for Xiang Yang to speak up about this matter.

"Break apart a chicken rack to make several pieces, and put a chicken rack into each section." Xiang Yang said.

Xiang Yang's meaning is the same as that of He Mingde, that is, if you are reluctant to part with the bait, you will not be able to catch the lobster. As long as you can catch the lobster, no matter how much bait you spend, you won't feel bad.

There are a total of four ground cages, each with fifteen sections, and a total of sixty chicken racks are needed.

Several crew members worked together, and soon sixty chicken racks were broken apart and put into each section of each ground cage.

Xiang Yang took Chen Qingsheng and several other crew members down to fix the ground cage.

Fixing the ground cage is not a very difficult thing, as long as the rope is tied to the nearest seabed reef to fix it.

Xiang Yang had just tied a rope here, while Fang Youqun was patting Xiang Yang's shoulder vigorously over there, and he kept pointing his finger in a certain direction to signal Xiang Yang to look.

Xiang Yang couldn't help looking in that direction, Xiang Yang couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it.

It turned out that before the ground cage was fixed, a greedy and bold tiger head crab couldn't stand the smell of the chicken rack and got into the ground cage. Two large tongs were tearing off the meat bit by bit on the chicken rack. into the mouthpiece.

"What a guy who wants to eat and die." Xiang Yang thought, and then reached into the ground cage to catch the tiger head crab, which was only the size of a palm, and threw it into the net bag that he carried at any time.

This tiger-head crab was a surprise, Xiang Yang looked at Fang Youqun with admiring eyes, and then gestured with both hands, indicating to search separately to see if he could catch more tiger-head crabs.

Fang Youqun nodded immediately, and then swam in one direction.

On the other side, Chen Qingsheng fixed the ground cage under a raised rock and looked around with satisfaction. Suddenly, his eyes fixed on a dark object.
