Chapter 195 The Fortune Fish with a Red Mouth!

"Cuckoo!"

"Cuckoo!"

Zhao Dahai was so excited that his hands were shaking a little. It took him a while to unhook the hook, and he held it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while to make sure that he had read it correctly.

Not a croaker!

Not a spring fish!

Big yellow croaker!

This is a big yellow croaker!

"How could that happen?"

"Why is there a big yellow croaker here?"

Zhao Dahai was very surprised. Large yellow croaker is a very valuable seafood with a very delicious taste. In the early years, the production was very large, but overfishing has made this fish almost extinct. In recent years, this kind of fish has basically not been seen. I didn't expect that I was so lucky that I caught one.

Is it wild?

Zhao Dahai knew that in recent years, some places have begun to release large yellow croaker fry into the sea, and some places have even begun to breed large yellow croaker.

If it is cultured large yellow croaker, especially the large yellow croaker that escapes from the breeding tank, it is not very valuable. Only pure wild large yellow croaker can be sold at a high price.

Zhao Dahai looked carefully at the large yellow croaker he caught. It's not that big, about five or six ounces, and its fish shape is very slender.

Zhao Dahai reached out and plucked the fins under the fish's eyes and folded them towards the fish's head, directly covering the eyes.

"ha!"

"wild!"

Zhao Dahai couldn't help but clenched his fist hard. The elongated fish shape is a common feature of wild fish. Farmed fish have plenty of food. People who raise fish hope that the fish will grow up in the shortest time, so they often provide sufficient food. The fish that grow up will be big, fat and plump. Fish in the wild have very little food, and they exercise a lot, swim very long distances, and are usually very thin and long. The eyes directly covered by the fins are a hard standard for wild large yellow croakers.

"This little mouth is really red!"

Zhao Dahai stared at the large yellow croaker for a while. The fish's mouth was really very distinctive, with a bright red color like rouge.

"quick!"

"Hurry up and keep it fresh!"

Zhao Dahai was a little confused.

The large yellow croaker caught in the sea water is completely golden, which is the most beautiful color. The large yellow croaker has another nickname called gold bar. One is its color, and the other is its very high price.

The caught large yellow croaker does not need to be raised. If it is kept in a live fish pond for a while, the color will turn white. If you want to preserve the golden color of large yellow croaker, you have to wrap it in something dark-colored, such as a yellow or black plastic bag or something else, and put it in the refrigerator immediately.

Zhao Dahai searched for a long time on the fishing boat. He didn't expect to catch a large yellow croaker. He was not prepared at all. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find anything suitable. He could only wrap the large yellow croaker in a towel and put it flat in the refrigerator. , pressed the ice.

Zhao Dahai breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the beads of sweat that had appeared on his forehead at some point. It was not from heat but from nervousness.

There can't really be a school of large yellow croaker, right?

Zhao Dahai remembered that when they went out to sea in the morning, Zhong Shizhu and the others had said that someone had set out fishing nets to capture a large yellow croaker in the past two days. At the time, he thought it was a joke. There could not really be a large yellow croaker. Unexpectedly, not only did he catch it, but he caught it himself.

Zhao Dahai picked up the fishing rod and was able to catch one, maybe a second and a third. After fishing for a long time in the live cabin, there was not a single small mud shrimp.

Dry!

Zhao Dahai was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

Large yellow croaker only eats live bait. The one we just caught was fished with live shrimp, which shows that it likes to use live shrimp to catch it. There are sea centipedes on the fishing boat, so it is basically impossible to catch it.

What to do?

Zhao Dahai patted his forehead hard and tried to calm down for a while.

go home!

I immediately went home and bought live shrimps to catch again!

Zhao Dahai made a decision very simply. The sea centipede would definitely not be able to catch the large yellow croaker. Instead of wasting time here, it would be better to seize the time and go home and buy live shrimps before fishing again. In addition, fishing for large yellow croaker during the day is not as good as at night. Large yellow croaker is usually hunted at night. Buy live shrimps and then rush over. Tonight, we will catch large yellow croaker here all night long.

Zhao Dahai looked at the surrounding sea, remembered this place, immediately pulled up the anchor, drove the fishing boat back to the dock, parked the fishing boat and went home immediately.

"ah?"

"Why are you back so early?"

Zhong Cuihua was weaving a fishing net in the main room. When she heard the sound and came out, she saw Zhao Dahai coming back. The expression on her face was very serious and nervous. She was startled and didn't know what happened.

"grandmother!"

"I caught a large yellow croaker. But there were no live shrimps. I hurried back to the town to buy live shrimps. I will go out for night fishing later in the evening and I won't be back tonight."

"The weather is relatively good and the place is not far from the pier, so there is no need to worry about safety."

As Zhao Dahai spoke, he put all the yellow snapper he caught into the live fish pond, turned on the oxygen and turned on the water pump, opened the refrigerator and took out the large yellow croaker.

Zhong Cuihua saw that it was really a big yellow croaker.

"OK!"

"You go to the town and buy live shrimps now. I'll cook the rice right now. You can eat it when I come back later. After you finish eating, you can go out to sea."

Zhong Cuihua was a little uneasy. People in the fishing village know very well that the big yellow croaker is a fortune fish. Zhao Dahai caught one, and it is very possible to catch several others in the same place. Don't look at it as the last five or six taels, it is already several hundred yuan more. If it can be adjusted to more than one kilogram, the price will be even higher. One piece will cost at least two to three thousand, three to five thousand or even higher.

Zhao Dahai nodded, and immediately went out to the town on a tricycle, bought ten catties of live shrimp, and then rushed back home. The rice was cooked, and he ate quickly. Or black plastic bags, everything is tidied up, including some food, gas lights are essential, riding a tricycle, taking things to the pier, boarding the fishing boat and heading out to sea immediately.

Night falls.

The sea was pitch black.

Zhao Dahai slowed down the speed of the fishing boat and stopped steadily at the place where he caught the large yellow croaker during the day.

Zhao Dahai looked around and saw that there were no other fishing boats nearby. He breathed a sigh of relief. If someone occupied this place, there would be no place to cry.

Zhao Dahai lit the gas lamp and hung it on the pillar. He was going to stay up all night tonight. It is impossible to use the electricity of the diesel engine all the time. The gas lamp is very bright and very convenient. A little running water, the sea is a little cloudy.

Zhao Dahai hooked the fishing boat with an iron anchor and immediately began to prepare. Three poles were all used for bottom fishing. They were all hooked up and thrown out alive.

Do you know if there is any fish?

Zhao Dahai rubbed his hands. He was not so nervous when fishing for other fish, even red spots or blue spots. The big yellow croaker was really different.

Zhao Dahai took a stool and sat down. Fishing large yellow croaker is different from fishing. Black snapper and yellow snapper have a faster rhythm, and they have to cast or reel in constantly. Generally speaking, you have to wait for 20 to 30 minutes before checking to see if the shrimp on the hook is dead. In addition, the number of large yellow croakers is relatively small, so it is impossible to pull wildly.

Zhao Dahai waited for half an hour, but there was no movement at all. He picked up a pole and pulled it lightly. He felt the live shrimp jumping on the hook on the bottom of the sea, and immediately put down the pole. Pick up the second pole and pull it lightly. I didn’t feel the movement of the live shrimp, and then pulled it lightly twice, but I still didn’t feel the movement of the shrimp. I put it away and saw that the shrimp was dead, so I changed it to another one immediately. One pole was re-thrown at the same position, and the third pole was no problem, just pulled it lightly, and immediately felt the live shrimp on the bottom of the sea bouncy and full of vitality.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and in a blink of an eye it is almost twelve o'clock at night.

Zhao Dahai checked the poles again to make sure that the shrimps hanging on each pole were alive. He sat down and waited. The big yellow croaker was like this. It was very tormenting. Staring constantly without being distracted is very exhausting.

One o'clock.

The sea breeze is getting colder.

Zhao Dahai shuddered. He was a little sleepy at first, but immediately recovered, took out his lunch box and started to eat. While eating, his eyes swept back and forth on the tip of the fishing rod on the boat from time to time. At the beginning, three handfuls of fish There are now six fishing rods, and all the fishing boats can be placed in all directions. I don’t know if there are fish or where there are fish, so I can only cover them all. Come directly to a "novice stall".

coming?

coming!

Zhao Dahai kept watch in the middle of the night without any movement. He just took out his lunch box to eat when the pole started to move. At this time, he picked up the pole, stared at the pole tip with the light of the gas lamp. It paused for a moment and then immediately moved again.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Dahai immediately raised his pole to stab the fish. The large yellow croaker was very alert when eating the bait and had a very sharp mouth.

bingo!

The moment Zhao Hai raised his pole, the line was straightened straight, very heavy hand, there was a fish on the hook, and the line was drawn up immediately, the water was not too deep, and after a while the fish was pulled out of the water, under the light, it was golden, and the mouth of the fish hanging from the hook was bright red.

Big yellow croaker!

Zhao Dahai was very excited. After watching for half the night, the fish finally came. When it came, it was a large yellow croaker. The tip moved.

Dry!

No way?

Come as a group! ?

Zhao Dahai ignored the big yellow croaker in the net and immediately picked up the pole. As soon as he picked it up, the tip of the pole shook a few more times. He simply raised the pole and pulled the fish out of the water. Another big yellow croaker came out. As soon as the net was lifted, the pole on the right hand side shook a few times. I put down the net, picked up the pole, and raised it again to stab another fish.

Zhao Dahai caught the fish and stared at the remaining pole for a long time. There was no movement. He slowly breathed a sigh of relief. If he didn't come, he would have caught three fish in a row. He didn't have time to breathe, and the clothes behind him were soaked through. .

Only then did Zhao Dahai have time to deal with the fish he had caught. The three fish were about two pounds in size and were all golden in color. They kept screaming "guk guk guk". Many fish in the sea would hear such a cry. The most common ones were long ones. It is a bit similar to the yellow croaker and spring fish, but the cry of the big yellow croaker is clearer, like the oriole, which is very nice.

Zhao Dahai took the red plastic bag he had prepared earlier and carefully wrapped the large yellow croaker. The tail and fins of the fish were all straightened. He opened the refrigerator, smoothed the ice underneath, put it down and laid it out, covering it with a thin layer of ice. , press it gently with your hands for a while, wait until the fish doesn’t move, let go, and close the refrigerator, so as to ensure the perfect shape and appearance of the large yellow croaker.

Zhao Dahai looked at the tip of the pole while arranging the large yellow croakers. However, until the three large yellow croakers were sorted, the remaining three poles remained motionless.

Zhao Dahai thought about it for a while, then he pulled up the remaining three rods and checked that all three shrimps were dead. He shook his head. If they were all alive, he might have just had the opportunity to catch one or two more. The big yellow croaker was They hunt in groups and will not eat the dead shrimps. The remaining fish may go elsewhere.

Zhao Dahai immediately changed the shrimps and carefully hung them on the shrimp gun and threw them out. However, this time they were not scattered but concentrated at the place where they had just been caught. The three fish were all in almost the same place. This was most likely a large yellow croaker preying on them. line.

Zhao Dahai waited for a full hour, but there was no movement. He picked up the rice that he had no time to eat just now to fill his stomach.

Four o'clock in the morning.

The wind is getting stronger at sea.

Zhao Dahai shivered a little from the cold.

Is it time to go back?

There won't be any fish, right?

Zhao Dahai raised his head and looked at the sky. It was a little dark, but it had begun to gradually become lighter. The sky would light up earlier on the sea. In another hour or even half an hour, the sky would slowly get brighter.

Zhao Dahai stood up and stretched his hands and feet. The last time he caught a fish was a few hours ago. He had been sitting there with his eyes wide open and looking at the tips of several fishing rods. He was cold and I was tired, but it was all worth it. I caught three large yellow croakers that were all good in size, and Xiaofa made a fortune.

Zhao Dahai walked back and forth on the deck five or six times. There were no fish for several hours. It was almost dawn. Maybe other fishing boats would see him fishing here. Although he didn't know what kind of fish he was catching, he kept watch all night. I know it must be a valuable fish, don't worry about other fishing spots, but this is the place to catch big yellow croaker.

Zhao Dahai pondered for a while and decided to put away the pole and go home. He would rather not let others know about his less fishing. He made up his mind to bend down and pick up a fishing rod in the bow of the boat.

ah?

No way? Is the fish coming again?

Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment, when he just picked up the fishing rod, the tip of the fishing rod shook slightly.

Hands shaking?

Waves in the sea?

Or are there really fish?

Do you want someone who raises the pole?

Various thoughts flashed through Zhao Dahai's mind for an instant, and he raised his pole immediately without wasting any time.

middle!

big!

Zhao Dahai immediately felt that the fish he was hooked was very big, and the fishing rod immediately changed its bow.

Five or six pounds!

Zhao Dahai didn't expect such a big surprise when he was about to collect the pole and go home.

Is the bigger the wind and waves the more expensive the fish?

No!

For large yellow croakers, the bigger the fish, the more expensive it is!

Zhao Dahai carefully controls the rod, the soft rod is thin and the line is rich in big fish, he is extremely careful and cannot be careless.

more than!

Definitely more than five or six pounds?

Zhao Dahai pulled the fish for five or six minutes, but the fish did not come out of the water at all and was very nervous. As long as it weighs more than one kilogram, it is already very valuable. The bigger it is, the more valuable it is. For large yellow croakers that are more than two or three kilograms, the weight only needs to differ by one or two, and the price will differ. At one level, I thought it was only five or six catties, but it got bigger and heavier as it was pulled.

what to do?

Zhao Dahai regretted that he had used such a soft pole and such a thin line. He thought that the large yellow croaker he could catch here would only be one and a half pounds, and it would not exceed two pounds if he died. He would never have thought that he could catch such a large yellow croaker. big.

Zhao Dahai didn't dare to take a breath. He was worried that the fishing line would break if he took a breath, and his face turned red from holding it in. He controlled the fishing rod more carefully, stood firm, and took a good look before reeling in one or two meters of line.

It took Zhao Dahai about twenty minutes, out of breath and with sore hands, to finally pull the fish out of the water.

Dry!

Is this ten pounds?

Zhao Dahai's eyes widened suddenly, and he became even more nervous.

Ten pounds of large yellow croaker?

How much can this be sold for?

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and controlled the fishing rod more carefully. The fish was already visible when it was pulled out of the water. At this time, he couldn't accept it if it decoupled or broke the line and ran away. He slowly pulled it to the side of the fishing boat and changed his left hand to hold the fish. Pulling the rod to the left rear of oneself, holding the dipping net to copy the fish in the right hand, watching the fish head slowly get into the dipping net, it feels like a century has passed.

Zhao Dahai held the net and stood beside the boat. He took several deep breaths and calmed down before carrying the fish onto the fishing boat. He did not bother to deal with the big yellow croaker he had just caught, and put away all the fish in a hurry. Take the fishing rod, pull up the anchor, and leave immediately. If you stick to it, you may still be able to catch it. However, this place must not be known to others.

Zhao Dahai drove a full mile or two before stopping the fishing boat.

Ten catties!

Definitely ten pounds!

Zhao Dahai picked up the net that was soaked in the live cabin and weighed it. The large yellow croaker caught when he reeled in the pole must have weighed more than ten kilograms. He took several deep breaths and tried to calm down but it was no use. So he simply No matter what, I immediately took the red plastic bag and wrapped it carefully, especially the fins and tail of the fish, put it in the refrigerator, covered it with ice, and closed the lid.

Zhao Dahai was completely exhausted and sat directly on the deck. He couldn't care less about the sea water. He rested for almost an hour until the sun rose and his face turned red. Then he stood up and drove the fishing boat to the village pier.

Zhao Dahai drove his fishing boat. The sun was rising and the sea breeze was blowing in his face. He was riding the wind and waves. He raised his neck and was so proud that he couldn't help but start to wonder how much these fish could be sold for.
