Rebirth of a Fishing Village: Starting From Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1110 We Still Have to Go Out to Sea!

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhao Dahai stopped the speedboat as he looked at the water that was gradually disappearing in front of him.

"Uncle Shizhu!"

"We have caught fish here today. Let's stop and have a good rest and then we will go back to the fishing boat."

Zhao Dahai shouted to Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou.

"Yo!"

"What kind of place are we in?"

Zhong Shizhu put away the pole and looked around. He found a small island in the distance. It was a little strange, but also a little familiar. It seemed that he had been to this place before.

"That should be Big Bird Island, right?"

"Didn't we come to this place when we went out to sea with other fishing boats?"

Liu Bin looked at the small island in the distance, frowned and thought for a long time. A few years ago, he and Zhong Shizhu, Lei Dayou and a few others came to this place when they went out to sea with other fishing boats.

"Yes!"

"That's right!"

"This place is Big Bird Island!"

"The shape of this island is a bit like a bird, and there are many big seabirds on this island. People who go out to sea to fish simply call this place Big Bird Island."

Lei Dayou put away his fishing rod, took a water cup, and drank water in big gulps.

Zhao Dahai stared at the island carefully for a long time, and confirmed that he had never been to this place before. He asked curiously how far this island was from the island reef foam area or the artificial island reef.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Da and a few others discussed it and felt that it should be 20 nautical miles away from the island reef foam area at this time.

"No way?"

"Is it so far?"

"In that case, we drove a speedboat while fishing and went to such a far place!"

Zhao Dahai was a little surprised. He really didn't expect to go so far.

Originally, I wanted to go to the island reef foam area to see if I could get sea bass, but I didn't expect to see the water flowing on the sea before I got there.

After trying, I found that there were no fish in the water, and found that they were not only large-sized mackerel, sea bass, or mackerel.

I drove the speedboat along the current and kept fishing.

I had already traveled twenty nautical miles without realizing it.

This distance is not close.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Da drank some water, took a break, and immediately started to work. The fish caught had to be checked and sorted. One was the living fish, which continued to be placed in the live water tank. The dead fish were picked up from the live water tank and put in the refrigerator or cold storage. Those that were not sorted were sorted to save the trouble of going all the way back. The fish in the cold storage or refrigerator were frozen hard, and if they did not look good, it would affect the price. They had to be sorted and placed neatly as much as possible.

The fish in the live water tank had to be carefully checked to see if there were too many. These fish had to be kept alive as much as possible.

Mainly sea bass, mackerel and mackerel were almost out of the question, and these two types of fish could not be kept alive.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou sorted out all the fish, packed up the speedboat and went back immediately.

When Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou returned to the fishing boat, it was already dark. Everyone couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief when they got on the fishing boat.

"It was really hard to fish today!"

Zhao Dahai couldn't help but complain.

Today's fishing time was definitely not the longest, but it was very hard. It was not because of the wind and waves, but because there were always swells on the sea, and they were getting bigger and bigger.

"I've vomited twice today!"

Zhong Shizhu said while wiping the corners of his mouth.

I have been out to sea for 20 or 30 years, and I don't know how many winds and waves I have seen, but every time I encountered a big swell on the sea, I couldn't stand it.

Today was the situation!

"No one has a good way to deal with this kind of thing!"

Lei Dayou vomited twice.

No matter how many years a person has been out to sea, no matter if he is seasick or not, as long as he encounters this situation, almost no one can escape.

"That's right!"

"Zhao Dahai!"

"You don't seem to have any problems at all!"

Liu Bin looked at Zhao Dahai. Among the four people, Zhao Dahai was the only one who didn't get seasick after a whole day.

"Ha!"

"I was so busy driving the speedboat and fishing that I didn't even think about this."

Zhao Dahai really didn't think about seasickness at all. He had been fishing in the flowing water today. He had to watch the speedboat and control it. He had to fish before the other one. He was so busy that he really didn't think about seasickness.

"Being healthy is being healthy!"

"I felt a little uncomfortable staying on the big fishing boat today. I almost got seasick!"

Lin Zuhua admired Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou very much. Zhao Dahai was even more amazing.

The speedboat was much smaller than the fishing boat. On the surface, it was very unstable and bumpy. If you have experienced it once, you will never forget it for the rest of your life.

Lin Zuhua remembered it very clearly. He had encountered this problem seven times since he went out to sea to fish. Each time he felt worse than death. He lay on the speedboat like a dead dog and could not move.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou did vomit, but they still fished for a whole day. If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do this, not to mention that Zhao Dahai not only did not vomit, but also had to drive a speedboat to fish, which was even more amazing.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou are in very good health, and Zhao Dahai is in even better health, so he can do this.

Zhao Dahai looked at the sea and decided to go out to sea around noon tomorrow.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou vomited several times today and fished for a whole day. It was very hard. I didn't vomit, but it was still very hard. If the waves are bigger tomorrow, I can't bear it. I might as well take a rest first.

"If we go out to sea again at noon tomorrow, there will be no fish by then, right?"

Lei Dayou shook his head immediately. He knew that Zhao Dahai was just thinking that he and his people would feel more comfortable if they rested more, but it wasted time in vain. It was really unnecessary. He thought he should go out to sea to fish early tomorrow morning.

"It's still early now. Let's take a shower, have a meal, and go to bed right away."

"Ding Dawen, check the weather, especially the sea surface."

"If the swell gets bigger, we'll go fishing at noon tomorrow. If it doesn't get bigger, or even if there isn't any, we'll go out to sea at three or four in the morning."

Liu Bin also felt that there was no need to rest for such a long time.

Zhao Dahai thought for a while and nodded.

It was indeed a bit hard today, but it's really early now. We'll go to bed after dinner, and it will be enough to sleep until three or four in the morning tomorrow.

If the swell is bigger, don't go out to sea to fish. If the swell is small and there is no big impact, then go out to sea to fish.

"Brother Dawen."

"Check the situation on the beach at two or three in the morning. If it's about the same as now, there's no need to call us!"

Zhao Dahai looked at Ding Dawen who was sitting next to him.

"Okay!"

Ding Dawen agreed.

Zhao Dahai asked Lin Zuwen if he had caught any mackerel today.

Lin Zuhua smiled bitterly when he heard this.

He didn't catch any mackerel all day today.

Not to mention the big ones, there was no sign of those weighing three or five kilograms.

"I didn't catch any mackerel here today. If I had known this would happen, I would have gone out to sea with your speedboat!"

Lin Zuhua really regretted it.

Today, I went drift fishing on the fishing boat, but I didn't catch any mackerel. Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu went out to sea to fish in a speedboat, following the current all the time. They caught big sea bass, mackerel, and mackerel, the largest of which weighed forty or fifty kilograms.

Lin Zuhua knew that as long as he went out to sea with the speedboat today, he would definitely be able to get these fish until he didn't want them anymore.

"Boss Lin."

"We did catch a lot of fish today, and they are all big. I know that many people who go out to sea want to catch fish with strong pulling force, such as mackerel or mackerel, including sea bass."

"It's really fortunate that you didn't go out to sea with our express delivery, otherwise you wouldn't be able to stand here and talk to us at this time."

Liu Bin smiled and pointed to the sea next to the fishing boat.

Lin Zuhua's face changed. When he said this just now, he forgot that the sea today was different from usual. There was not much wind, no waves, but there was a very terrible surge.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou all vomited several times. If he went out to sea with the speedboat today, he would not be able to stand, sit or lie down, let alone stand.

Speedboats going out to sea, as long as they leave the dock, there is no special situation, such as someone is injured or the speedboat engine has problems, the weather is bad or something, it is absolutely impossible to return to the dock.

Once I get on the speedboat and go out to sea, no matter how much I vomit, I have to wait until Zhao Dahai finishes fishing before I come back here.

No one will pity me, I can just endure it.

Lin Zuhua couldn't help but shuddered when he thought of this situation.

Zhong Shizhu and Lei Dayou laughed when they saw Lin Zuhua's face, but they knew that this was the case, so they couldn't blame Lin Zuhua.

The night was getting deeper and deeper.

It was a little cold when the wind blew over.

Lin Zuhua strode into the cab, immediately took his water cup, poured boiling hot water, drank several sips, shook his hands, and wiped his face.

"Why did it suddenly blow so hard?"

Lin Zuhua said while looking at the deck of the fishing boat. He just went to change new live baits for several rods, and after such a while, he felt a little cold.

"Will it rain?"

Lin Zuhua looked at Ding Dawen.

Ding Dawen shook his head and pointed at the radio next to him. He had just listened to the weather forecast, which did not say it would rain. There was a moon in the sky, and the clouds were not thick at all. There was no sign of dark clouds.

This weather was just a little windy at night on the sea. As long as there were no dark clouds in the sky, this kind of wind would only be a little cold, and it would really be impossible for it to rain.

"It doesn't matter whether it rains or not. The most important thing is that the wind is not too strong. Otherwise, Zhao Dahai and his friends won't be able to go out to sea to fish in the early morning."

Ding Dawen is not worried about the rain at all.

Having worked on a fishing boat for a while, he already knows that fishermen are not afraid of rain, but only of wind. As long as there is no wind, especially no strong wind, they will definitely go out to sea to fish.

"Oh?"

"Are you planning to call Zhao Dahai and his friends to go fishing at two or three in the morning?"

Lin Zuhua remembered what Zhao Dahai and Ding Dawen said, as long as there is no surging on the sea, they will call them to go out to sea to fish at two or three in the morning, otherwise they will wait until tomorrow morning or even noon to go out to sea to fish.

"Yes!"

"It is indeed a little windy now, but the wind is not too strong. There are waves on the sea, but there is no surge."

"In this kind of weather, Zhao Dahai and his friends will definitely go out to sea to fish."

"I have just called the kitchen to prepare food and drinks. When the time comes, I will call Zhao Dahai and Uncle Shizhu to get up and go out to sea to fish."

Ding Dawen nodded.

Zhao Dahai has already said that as long as there is no treatment or the surge becomes smaller, they have to go out to sea to fish.

It is indeed a little windy now, but not too strong. Zhao Dahai usually goes out to sea to fish in this kind of weather.

Don't say too much. Even if you only catch 1,000 kilograms of fish every day in Zhuhai, you can make a lot of money. If you delay for a day, you will make less money.

Lin Zuhua understood why Ding Dawen or Zhao Dahai must go out to sea to fish in this kind of weather.

"Other people might stay at home or not go out to sea in such weather!"

"Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu must be going out to sea to fish!"

Lin Zuhua knew very well that most of the other people who went out to sea to fish would not go out to sea to fish in such weather.

If the speedboat is not big, it is a bit dangerous to go out to sea in such weather. More importantly, other people can't catch many fish and make much money. It is not cost-effective to go out to sea in such weather, so just don't go out to sea.

Lin Zuhua chatted with Ding Dawen while looking at the rods on the deck of the fishing boat from time to time.

It is indeed easier to fish, but it doesn't mean that nothing needs to be done.

This method of fishing generally requires the use of live bait, whether it is live fish or live crabs. It takes one or two hours in the sea, and at most three or four hours before they die, and they have to be replaced with new ones. Dead fish or crabs are very ineffective and almost no fish can be caught.

Lin Zuhua would go up every two hours or so, check if the fish on the hook was alive, retrieve it and flip it out again. It took quite a while to check several handfuls of sugarcane, and it would take almost an hour to release it again.

Lin Zuhua was full of energy at first, but he started yawning constantly at 1 a.m.
