My Deep-sea Fishery

"Because the boat does not have a lifting device, no matter how many fish are towed, it is ultimately up to the fishermen to pull the fish up from the sea, so there is no difference between a boat trawl and a hand-cast net." Chen Qingsheng said.

Xiang Yang looked at the sea water around the cabin, and said: "We have been out for more than half an hour now, and the sea water here is still relatively clear. In addition, in the past two years, the amount of seaweed on the sea surface of our Qinglong Bend has increased, and the fishery resources have also decreased. There has been a corresponding increase, let’s cast a net and try.”

Fang Youqun nodded quickly, "Brother Yang, let me come."

Xiang Yang looked at Chen Qingsheng.

Chen Qingsheng understood, handed the fishing net to Fang Youqun, and said, "Be careful."

Fang Youqun took the fishing net and walked towards the deck.

Fang Youqun really knows how to throw the net by hand. I saw him holding the net rope with one hand and the fishnet with the other. With a hard throw, the fishnet was thrown into the sea water.

Before the fishing net touches the sea water, it will automatically spread out in mid-air.

Fang Youqun grabbed the rope connecting the fishing net and climbed towards the top of the cabin. This kind of fishing boat, when the net is released for a while, requires a person to stand on the top of the cabin and drag the rope hard to get up.

"Okay, don't climb up, go directly to the Internet cafe." Xiang Yang pulled Fang Youqun back and said.

Climbing to the top of the cabin to pull up the net is just a little more stress, and now there are three people on board, Xiang Yang thinks it is unnecessary.

Besides, it is not certain whether there are fish or no fish in this fishing net.

When Fang Youqun heard this, he quickly leaned back slightly, stepped on the side of the boat with one foot, bent the other foot slightly, and pulled the rope hard.

Chen Qingsheng lit a cigarette for himself, and said, "Nine times out of ten, it's an empty net."

Xiang Yang also nodded. If there were a lot of catches in the net, it would actually be quite difficult to pull the net out, but seeing Fang Youqun's actions at the moment, it was too easy.

Sure enough, after the fish net came out, although it was not an empty net inside, it was almost like an empty net. There were only a few dark sea fish inside.

"Damn it, it's actually the most difficult grouper to catch in the sea. Did your net just catch a whole nest of grouper?" Chen Qingsheng asked in surprise.

Xiang Yang was also a little surprised, "Although it is the least valuable gall grouper among the wild grouper, it is indeed a real grouper."

"Grouper is good, I like grouper." Fang Youqun happily put these grouper in the living water tank.

Xiang Yang shook his head, "Keep the biggest one, we will eat it at noon, and put the rest back into the sea."

"Huh? Let go?" Fang Youqun was obviously reluctant.

Xiang Yang said helplessly: "This is a gentian grouper, the largest fish among grouper fish, these few are too small."

Generally, when Xiang Yang catches such immature fish, he will release them raw.

When Fang Youqun heard this, although he was still very reluctant to part with it, he still reluctantly put all the grouper back into the sea, leaving only the grouper weighing three to four catties, which was directly stored in a bucket for lunch. When drinking, it is used for drinking.

Next, Fang Youqun cast another net.

This time, luck was a little bit better than the first time. There was a sea bass weighing tens of catties, and dozens of wharf fish weighing two or three catties. The net was so heavy that Fang Youqun and Chen Qingsheng could not pull it together. Or first fix the fishing net to put it on, then untie the opening of the net, take out the wharf fish in the fishing net one by one, and finally pull up the sea bass.

Sea bass is somewhat different from the general freshwater bass. It is larger in size and can be divided into white bass and black bass.

What Xiang Yang caught this time was a thick and long black bass with very rough scales. The whole body was basically black.

If it is a white bass, the back of the white bass is blue-gray, the belly is whiter, and there are irregular black spots on the side of the body.

"Be careful, don't be bitten by it." Xiang Yang reminded.

Sea bass is actually quite aggressive. It likes to feed on fish and shrimp and is extremely aggressive.

"Don't worry, Brother Yang." Fang Youqun grabbed the sea bass under the head and asked, "Brother Yang, where to put it."

Xiang Yang thought for a while and said: "Sea bass is rich in protein and delicious in meat. It is one of the common marine economic fish. The more famous dishes include Kung Pao sea bass, but it is not very valuable. Put it in the live water tank for lunch. Let’s cook and eat together.”

Sea bass is rich in protein, vitamin A, B vitamins, calcium, magnesium, zinc, selenium and other nutrients; it has the effects of nourishing the liver and kidney, benefiting the spleen and stomach, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, and has a good tonic effect on people with insufficient liver and kidney. It can also cure fetal restlessness and other diseases. Pregnant mothers and women in labor eat perch, which is a nutritious food that not only replenishes the body, but also does not cause obesity due to overnutrition.

Of course, what Xiang Yang values ​​most is that there is a lot of copper in perch blood. Copper can maintain the normal function of the nervous system and participate in the function of several key enzymes in the metabolism of substances. Eating perch can supplement a large amount of copper in the human body.

"That's it." Fang Youqun agreed, and then directly threw the sea bass into the live water tank.

Just as Fang Youqun was about to cast the net again, Xiang Yang waved his hand to stop him.

"Fang Youqun, do you want to find a place with me and go under the water to touch it?" Xiang Yang asked with a smile.

"Diving?" Fang Youqun's eyes lit up instantly.

Chen Qingsheng was in a hurry, and he quickly said: "Boss, this is impossible, we don't even have diving equipment when we come out this time."

"Don't worry, I won't make fun of safety." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Qingsheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But then, Chen Qingsheng became suspicious, "Boss, what do you mean?"

Fang Youqun also looked at Xiang Yang in puzzlement.

Xiang Yang pointed to the distance, "What do you see?"

Fang Youqun and Chen Qingsheng immediately looked up, only to see a small black spot in the shape of a fist on the sea in the distance.

"Is that an island?" Chen Qingsheng was a little uncertain.

Xiang Yang nodded, "That's right, in fact, there are a lot of islands and reefs in our Qinglong Bend. The reason why you didn't see it in the past is because our boat is too big. Every time we come out, we have to ask for it." Looking for a safe channel without hidden reefs, this time we came out in a small boat, do you want to go to the islands and reefs to have a look?"

Chen Qingsheng nodded with a smile, "Okay, go up to see the scenery, it should be something special."

Fang Youqun was instantly disappointed, "What is there to see on the reef? It depends on the reef. We also have it on the coast of Yanlong Village."

"This is different." Xiang Yang said: "On the islands and reefs on the coast, even the shells have been picked up. On these islands and reefs in the middle of the sea, the fishery resources are actually extremely rich."
