Chapter 841 Too Many Fish! No More Fishing!

"Ha!"

"Okay!"

"Old Shi."

"You're right. Zhao Dahai really eats dumplings every day when he goes fishing. It's just that we have to see whether the dumplings he eats today are filled with vegetables or meat!"

Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment and laughed out loud. There are indeed times when Zhao Dahai can't catch fish when he goes out to sea, but these times are relatively rare. Most of the time, he can catch a lot of fish. Shi Guangming said that if Zhao Dahai eats dumplings every day, there is actually nothing wrong with it.

"Here they come!"

"The fish are coming!"

...

"Zhong Shizhu!"

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"This one must be at least 120 jin. I can't handle it alone!"

...

"Yo!"

"Zhao Dahai!"

"Yours is probably the biggest one. Where do so many big blue groupers come from?"

...

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou have been fishing with Zhao Dahai for a long time. They have caught a lot of fish. It is not strange to catch a grouper weighing 100 jin. They have seen and caught countless of them. However, the big blue groupers caught tonight are not just big in size. The key is that they are one after another, in large numbers, and the bite is very fierce.

Shi Guangming was very surprised at first, but as time passed, especially two hours later, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou and Zhao Dahai were still catching big groupers in the sea. He gradually became numb and had no interest in fishing. Seeing that the time was almost up, he remembered the mullet and the big orchid crabs that he had caught.

Shi Guangming called Zhao Shi to work with him. It took almost an hour to fry a large pot of croaker and cook a pot of porridge.

Four o'clock in the morning.

Zhao Dahai called Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou to stop fishing and take a break. In the past few hours, they have been fishing in circles in the sea in front of them. They are all fishing far from the bottom. They are all big blue spot weighing 100 to 80 kg or even more than 100 kg. After they couldn't catch any fish, they started to knock on the bottom. Most of them are about 50 kg. Some are small blue spot weighing 20 to 30 kg. However, they caught a lot of red spot. At this time, although it is close to dawn, it should be the time when fish are crazy about biting. The tide at this time is very beautiful, and the whole sea surface is constantly flowing. However, after fishing for such a long time, there are almost no fish in this fishing spot in front of them, or even if there are fish, they are those that cannot be caught. In the past hour, the four people kept trying various methods but couldn't catch any fish. This is basically the end of fishing today. Take a break, eat something, and see how many more rods are cast. If you can catch fish, you can catch a few more. If you can't catch any fish, you can go home directly.

Zhao Shi brought out a large basin filled with balang fish and placed it directly on the deck of the speedboat.

Zhao Dahai smelled the aroma of fried balang fish and his mouth watered. He didn't care that it was very hot after it was fried. He grabbed a handful of fish and stuffed them into his mouth one by one. He had been fishing for several hours and caught big fish weighing 100 to 80 kilograms. He used a handheld rod and a hand-cranked spinning wheel. One or two fish would not consume too much energy, but one after another was really no joke. He was hungry and tired.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou grabbed a handful and ate them directly like Zhao Dahai.

"Why do you have to work so hard?"

"This basin is just fried, and there is another one waiting!"

Shi Guangming looked at Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou who were eating voraciously, took a puff of the hookah in his hand, and looked at the oil pan next to him, where the second basin of balang fish was being fried.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Da didn't say anything. They ate one after another. It didn't take long for them to finish the 10-pound pot of bream.

Zhao Dahai let out a long sigh, bent over, and washed his hands in the sea water. He wasn't full, but he was already three-quarters full, and he felt comfortable.

Zhao Dahai picked up his thermos cup, unscrewed the lid and drank a sip of boiling hot tea.

"We have to go back soon!"

Zhao Shi said as he put another pot of bream that had just been fried on the deck, and then took a bowl of porridge cooked with orchid crabs.

Zhao Dahai pointed to the sea surface where the sea water was constantly flowing and said that after eating, he would fill his stomach and follow the tide to see if he could catch any fish. If not, he would go back.

"You can't fish anymore!"

Shi Guangming picked up the bowl of porridge cooked with orchid crabs and drank half a bowl.

The sea breeze in the early morning blew on people's bodies, and the splashing sea water mist made them feel cold. Now, after drinking this bowl of hot porridge, a layer of tiny beads of sweat immediately appeared on their foreheads, which was very comfortable.

"Ah?"

"Why is this?"

Zhao Dahai was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Shi Guangming said that he couldn't fish anymore.

Shi Guangming pointed at the live tank of the speedboat and then at the deck of the speedboat.

"I was so busy fishing that I forgot how many fish I caught!"

Shi Guangming knew that the current tide was very good. Even if there were not many fish, even if the fish at this fishing spot were almost all caught, he could still catch some fish, or he could change to another fishing spot and continue fishing, but now he really couldn't continue fishing.

Zhao Dahai looked at the live tank of the speedboat, which was full of large groupers, including blue groupers, sesame groupers, and valuable red groupers. There were a lot of fish piled on the deck of the speedboat.

"Wow!"

"When did we catch so many fish? Isn't the refrigerator full of fish?"

Zhao Dahai was busy fishing just now and really didn't notice how many fish he caught. Now the fish on the deck are the sea bass caught yesterday morning. They were originally in the refrigerator. There must be too many fish caught and there is no place to put them. The valuable ones, such as the dead grouper caught, are placed in the refrigerator, and these sea bass can only be taken out.

Zhao Dahai is a little helpless.

The big speedboat he bought is very big, and the cabin is relatively large. However, he modified it himself, leaving only a narrow place for sleeping, and the rest are all converted into live cabins or cold storage.

I didn't expect that neither the cold storage nor the live cabin is enough now.

This trip to the sea DYD reef foam area caught thousands of kilograms of sea bass. When he came here again one night, he happened to encounter the crazy movement of big groupers in the sea, and caught a lot of fish again. The cold storage and live cabin are full.

Zhao Dahai was a little reluctant to give up. He stood up and checked the live tank of the speedboat. It was full of fish. It was not that there was no room for one fish, but a slightly larger fish of three or four jin could definitely fit in. If he caught a red snapper of ten or even three or five jin, there would be no problem. However, red snappers were not something that could be caught just by fishing.

Zhao Dahai checked the cold storage box of the speedboat again, including the refrigerator on the deck. It was full of fish, and they were neatly arranged one after another, leaving no space at all. It was obvious that only an old hand could do it. It must have been Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming who had sorted it out while he and Zhong Shizhu were fishing.

"Don't even think about it! There is no space in the live tank and refrigerator now. The fish caught can only be placed on the deck."

Zhao Shi looked at Zhao Dahai, who was frowning a little, and smiled. Other people who went out to sea to fish, especially those who went out to sea to fish by speedboat, and Zhao Dahai, who was so big on a speedboat, would not encounter such a thing. It was impossible for him to catch too many fish and have no place to put them.

"Forget it!"

"How can we fish in this state?"

"Let's take a break! We'll go back soon!"

Zhao Dahai has made up his mind to stop fishing here. The tide is just right, and it's just getting light. If we continue fishing at this time, we will definitely catch some fish, but we can only give up.

"Dahai!"

"Why don't we fish for a while longer?"

"Although the artificial islands and reefs are far away, our speedboat is big and fast, so it's okay to catch fish without a live tank or refrigerator!"

Zhong Shizhu held a bowl of porridge made from orchid crabs in his left hand and a handful of fried barramundi in his right hand. He was eating delicious food, but now he felt that it had no taste at all. It was still early, and the tide was getting better and better. It's not that he couldn't catch any fish, but that he had caught too many fish and couldn't fit them in. He couldn't catch any more.

Zhong Shizhu was really a little depressed.

"Ha!"

"Zhong Shizhu, you want to catch more fish, that's fine, this speedboat can still hold more fish, but don't forget that the fish caught here are valuable fish. If you can't keep them alive, how much can you sell them for?"

"There's no need to fish anymore, just wait until the next time you come here to fish. Anyway, there are fewer speedboats here now. Only Zhao Dahai knows what kind of place it is at this point."

"Don't catch red or big blue spots, you can't leave them on the deck, right? It's such a waste!"

Shi Guangming knew that Zhong Shizhu's idea was very simple. This place was not too far from the dock, and Zhao Dahai's speedboat was very fast. It would only take three or four hours to get back. If they were not kept in the living cabin, they would not go bad even if they were not put in the refrigerator. They were still very fresh.

It doesn't matter if you catch worthless fish, such as black porgy or sea bass, but if you catch valuable grouper, especially large blue grouper, or if you keep a red grouper that is very valuable, there is no place to put it, and the price difference is a bit far, which is very disadvantageous.

There are not many people fishing in this artificial island reef, especially the spot where Zhao Dahai is fishing now. Others are not very clear. If you don't catch these fish now, you can still catch them next time.

"Yeah!"

"Let's stop here today. We have caught enough fish. There is no need to be so greedy."

"We'll go back and come back here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to continue fishing!"

Zhao Dahai nodded. Whether it's blue, sesame or red grouper, only alive ones can be sold at a high enough price. It's not like we can't catch fish this time, so there's no need to go fishing like crazy.

Zhong Shizhu thought about it and nodded. Don't look at these fish still in the sea, but basically it's no different from being raised in Zhao Dahai's fish pond. At least Zhao Dahai and his people can't catch other speedboats, so it's very difficult to catch reels. So instead of fishing and not being able to keep them alive, and not being able to sell them at a good price, it's better not to fish first.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, Lei Dayou, Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming chatted while eating barramundi and drinking hot orchid crab porridge. They had decided not to fish anymore, so there was no need to eat and work quickly.

Zhao Dahai and Zhong Shizhu had a full meal and rested for half an hour. They saw that the sky was already showing the light of a fish belly. The sky was gradually getting brighter, and the view on the sea was getting wider and wider.

Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou worked together to pack up the speedboat. All the fishing rods and other things had to be put in place. There was no way to deal with the sea bass on the deck. They took out some ice from the refrigerator and covered it on top. They also took a layer of oilcloth and covered it on the top. It would definitely not take a long time, but it was only a few hours, so there was no big problem.

Zhao Dahai saw that everything had been packed up, and immediately drove the speedboat away from the artificial island and reef and rushed back directly. The horsepower was full, the two engines roared, and the speed was very fast. Only a long water tail was left on the sea. When it disappeared, the speedboat had already gone to who knows where.

The sun gradually rose.

Zhao Dahai looked at the surrounding sea. Some speedboats appeared one after another, and they all rushed towards the direction of the artificial island and reef. They must be going there to fish.

Zhao Dahai shook his head.

The Windmill Foot Fishing Spot is not too far from the docks of each village. Generally speaking, it can be reached in two or three hours. In this way, if you get up early in the morning, you can reach the fishing spot before dawn and catch the best tide to fish. You can even go to other places to fish for some black porgy or other fish to earn some gas money before going to the Windmill Foot Fishing Spot.

However, the artificial islands and reefs are far away, and ordinary speedboats take a long time, at least five or six hours, and at most seven or eight hours to reach them. You have to go out to sea at eleven or twelve o'clock the night before or even earlier. You can do it once, but not the second time, and you can do it the second time, but not the third time. It is already very impressive to have two trips to artificial islands and reefs in a month. In addition to the risk of not catching fish, not many people are willing to take risks on artificial islands and reefs.

Zhao Dahai glanced at the speedboats around him and ignored them. He continued to drive the speedboat back. Since he was no longer fishing, he would hurry back to the dock to sell fish.

Zhao Dahai had been driving for more than an hour when he saw Zhong Shizhu, who was sitting on the middle deck of the speedboat, turn around and shout at him.

The speedboat was going very fast, and the sea breeze was very strong. In addition, the bow of the speedboat kept bouncing up and hitting the sea surface, making a loud noise, so he couldn't hear what he was saying.
