Chapter 840: Big or Small
"Ha!"
"Zhao Dahai!"
"Is it really like this?"
Zhong Shizhu was immediately excited when he heard this.
Can you catch a big grouper in the sea five to ten meters from the bottom?
If so, it means that there are a lot of groupers in the sea now, and they are biting like crazy.
I thought that it was amazing that I, Lei Dayou, and Liu Bin had caught six groupers in a row, but now it seems that the number and the opening of these groupers in the sea are even more amazing than I imagined.
"Ha!"
"It seems that our luck tonight is really good. Not only are some fish biting, but the number seems to be very large."
Zhao Dahai looked at Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin, and Lei Dayou who were extremely excited. He knew very well what was going on.
Zhao Dahai reeled in the fish very steadily one after another. After a few minutes, the fish was pulled out of the water. Under the white light, it was clear that it was a huge, round, big blue grouper weighing 120 to 130 kilograms.
Zhao Shi took the scoop net and put it around the fish head, then pulled it back hard and caught the whole fish. He tried but couldn't pull it up by himself, so he shouted to Shi Guangming beside him for help.
Zhao Dahai stopped Shi Guangming, put down the pole in his hand, and reached out to take the scoop net.
Second Grandpa Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming were not without strength, but they were old after all. If the sea fishing boat or the flat ground was more stable, two people would definitely be able to pull it up, but the speedboat was not like a sea fishing boat on the sea, or it was not as stable as the flat ground. It would tilt as long as you exert force. If you sprain your waist, it would be a big trouble.
Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming did not force it, let alone show off their strength. If there was no choice, they would definitely have to scoop the fish, but there was no need to do so now. Safety first.
Zhao Dahai stood firmly with both feet, exerted force with both hands, and dragged the grouper in the scoop net onto the deck.
"Ha!"
"This fish is really good-sized!"
"It took so much effort and time, it's worth it!"
Shi Guangming patted the big blue grouper's head.
Zhao Dahai just spent almost 20 minutes to catch this big grouper. If it was a small fish, it would be really not worth it.
Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou each caught two groupers weighing about 20 jins.
"Uncle Shi."
"But the price of a blue grouper weighing more than 100 jins is not comparable to that of two or three or three or four blue groupers weighing about 20 jins."
"Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and I caught six blue groupers weighing about 20 jins, but the total price is not as high as Zhao Dahai's one."
Lei Dayou looked at the blue grouper lying on the deck like a calf. Don't say that the meat of small fish is more tender and tastes better, but they are not as valuable as big fish.
Zhao Dahai took the pliers and removed the hook that hit the corner of the big blue spot's mouth.
"Uncle Shizhu!"
"Change the hook!"
"You have to use one that's the size of your palm!"
"No need to knock on the bottom, we'll fish at a depth of about 135 to 140 meters!"
"Hook the big octopus!"
Zhao Dahai thought about it and shouted loudly to Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou to change their fishing strategy, no longer knock on the bottom, and to change to a big hook to hook the big live octopus.
Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou started to change the hook without thinking, and after changing the hook and hanging the big live octopus, they immediately put it into the sea. This time, they didn't knock on the bottom, but put it directly into the water depth of 140 meters.
Zhao Dahai put down the rod in his hand, took another rod, tied a new big hook again, and didn't start fishing immediately.
"Pull the rod up and down!"
...
"Shake it gently left and right!"
...
"Don't move it too much!"
...
Zhao Dahai observed the rods on the gun carriage of Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, and reminded them how to operate.
Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming were very calm at the beginning, but after more than ten minutes, no fish took the bait, and they couldn't help but look at each other. Something was wrong.
"Zhao Dahai."
"What's going on? Why didn't the fish take the bait?"
"In that case, we might as well just knock on the bottom!"
Shi Guangming said as he turned his head to see that there was indeed a signal of fish on the fish finder, and it was from the bottom, about 130 to 140 meters of water, but Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou tried for more than ten minutes, and followed the method Zhao Dahai said, but no fish took the bait.
Shi Guang knew that Zhao Dahai wanted to catch a big fish, but if no fish took the bait, it would just be a waste of time. It would be better to just knock on the bottom. It didn't matter if the fish was small, the key was to catch the fish.
Zhao Shi didn't say anything, but nodded. He came to fish to make money, not to catch big fish. No matter how valuable or expensive a big fish is, it's useless if you can't catch it. It's really better to catch small fish.
"Uncle Shizhu! Put away your rod. Don't use the rod on the gun stand. Use the handheld spinning reel rod."
Zhao Dahai thought about it and asked Zhong Shizhu to put away the rod on the gun stand and use the handheld rod.
Shi Guangming and his second grandfather Zhao Shi were right. If you really can't catch a big fish, small fish can also make money, but if you can catch a big one, you must catch a big one.
"Grandpa Shi."
"Not only are big fish valuable, but it seems that the big fish should be away from the bottom, just above the fish below."
"Try to catch the fish on the top first, and then wait until later to catch the fish below. This is safer."
"Ha!"
"I plan to catch all sizes and I can't catch those small groupers on the seabed now."
Zhao Dahai not only wants to catch big fish, but more importantly, he wants to catch more fish. He must go from top to bottom in one water layer after another. Only in this way can he catch more.
Zhao Shi and Shi Guangming finally understood what was going on. The big blue grouper weighing over 100 jin was caught in the water layer 5 to 10 meters away from the seabed. If only Zhao Dahai was fishing for big fish, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou would probably scare away the big fish if they knocked the small fish on the bottom. If they really couldn't catch any, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou might have to stop fishing and wait until Zhao Dahai finished catching the big grouper in the water layer away from the bottom before they could continue to knock on the bottom. This would be a waste of time. No matter what, they had to see if Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou could catch these big groupers.
Zhong Shizhu quickly changed to a hand-cranked spinning reel rod and let the line out directly to 140 meters.
"Don't be in a hurry! Stop first and wait!"
...
"When you feel that the octopus hanging on the hook is no longer moving, it's about time!"
...
"Have you seen the direction of the water flow on the sea?"
...
"Drag it against the current, and if there is no movement, stop and wait."
"Twenty to thirty seconds."
...
"Drag it gently with the current, and shake it gently. The movement must be very small."
...
Zhong Shizhu held the rod tightly in his right hand, and his ears pricked up to concentrate. He did whatever Zhao Dahai said. There was no movement when he started against the current, but with the current, he just pulled and shook the rod twice, and suddenly a very fierce bite.
Zhong Shizhu's face changed. He couldn't hold the rod with one hand, so he immediately changed to two hands to hold the rod and lifted it up hard.
"Hit!"
"Ha!"
Shi Guangming shouted. Zhao Dahai is really amazing. Not only can he catch fish, but he can also find ways to help others catch fish. Now there are not only fish in the sea, but also a lot of fish. If only one person fishes, he will definitely not catch many. The more people catch fish, the better. Zhong Shizhu can catch fish, which means that Lei Dayou and Liu Bin have the same chance, and they have a great chance to catch fish. If Zhao Dahai is included, there are four people fishing. Considering that the big grouper that is over 100 kilograms is caught now, this is incredible.
Zhong Shizhu held the rod with both hands and lifted it up tightly. When he exerted force, he couldn't help but tiptoe.
The size of the fish that was hooked is really big. It is definitely not 20 or 30 kilograms. It must be at least 80 or even 90 kilograms, or even over 100 kilograms.
Zhong Shizhu has plenty of strength, but the pulling force of this big fish that is close to 100 kilograms is very fierce. Now that it has just been hooked and wants to rush down fiercely, it wants to escape. At this time, it must not let out a breath, and must hold on tightly.
"Fuck!"
"Big one!"
"If it's not 100 jin, it must be 80 or 90 jin!"
Zhong Shizhu carried it for almost a minute, and when he felt that the strength of the big grouper in his hand had been almost exhausted, he let out a sigh and spoke.
Liu Bin and Lei Dayou immediately looked at Zhao Dahai.
"Ha!"
"Uncle Liu! Uncle Dayou! You can just follow this method!"
Zhao Dahai laughed. Liu Bin and Lei Dayou saw that Zhong Shizhu had caught a fish and a big one this time, so they were eager to try and wanted to go fishing right away.
At first, Zhong Shizhu couldn't catch any fish with the rod on the gun mount. This was because the rod on the gun mount couldn't be flexibly controlled. The big fish was big and very cautious, and he had a lot of experience. He noticed something was wrong and didn't want to bite the hook. He switched to a hand-cranked spinning reel rod, which could be used both upstream and downstream. He was very flexible and caught the fish right away.
Liu Bin and Lei Dayou immediately reeled in the lines, changed the rods, hung the octopus on the hook, put it into the sea and started fishing.
Zhao Dahai waited for Zhong Shizhu to pull the fish out of the water, then took the scoop net to scoop the fish and dragged it onto the deck before he started fishing.
"Uncle Liu! Uncle Dayou!"
"The fish that leave the seabed are all big fish!"
"These fish are very cautious and don't bite the hook easily."
"You have to move your hands more gently!"
"You have to move slowly to have a chance to catch these big fish."
When Zhao Dahai let out the line, he noticed that Liu Bin and Lei Da were both a little anxious. The movements of the rods in their hands were relatively large and forceful, so he reminded them immediately.
Lei Dayou and Liu Bin stopped their movements, took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and began to patiently shake or pull the rods in their hands. The movements that originally took one minute now took five minutes.
"Here it comes!"
"Ha!"
"Who said it will be done soon? It must be done slowly!"
...
"Big!"
"No matter who likes fishing, they don't like to use electric reels, but hand-held rods and hand-cranked spinning wheels!"
"This pulling force is really huge!"
...
Shi Guangming took a strong puff of the hookah in his hand.
Liu Bin and Lei Dayou were very anxious at the beginning, but Zhao Dahai reminded them and they caught the fish immediately. The fish has not been pulled out of the water, but from the curvature of the fishing rod, it can be seen that it is at least 80 kilograms.
Are Liu Bin and Lei Dayou very powerful? Not at all, Zhao Dahai is the powerful one.
If it weren't for Zhao Dahai, Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Dayou would definitely have a chance to catch fish when they came here, but it would be impossible to catch so many fish so easily.
"Heh!"
"Old man Shi."
"How can Zhao Dahai fish like this?"
"Who would be interested in deep-sea fishing?"
Shi Guangming turned his head and looked at Zhao Shi, who was sitting next to him.
Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou have all caught fish now. Zhao Dahai is fishing. It won't take long for a fish to bite.
If he continues fishing like this, how many fish can he catch in one night?
Last time, Zhao Dahai cooperated with his own sea fishing boat and took people out to sea to fish. He made more than 10 million in a month, but judging from Zhao Dahai's fishing situation tonight, it really didn't have much appeal.
Shi Guangming was not unaware of this. In fact, he had already known that this was the case, but every time he saw Zhao Dahai catch so many fish, his sigh in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Yeah!"
"It's just that I'm just a little bit luckier!"
"Maybe it's because it's been the New Year and I haven't fished here for a month, so there are so many fish here!"
"Who doesn't eat dumplings when fishing? But it's impossible to eat dumplings every day!"
Zhao Shi waved his hand calmly.
"Bah!"
"You old man are just taking advantage of me. Zhao Dahai eats dumplings every day when he goes out to sea to fish, but you have to talk like that."
Shi Guangming glared at Zhao Shi with contempt. Other people definitely can't catch a lot of fish every day when they go out to sea, but Zhao Dahai almost catches a lot of fish and very big fish every day. Even if the fish he catches on a certain day is not too many, it's just that Zhao Dahai doesn't catch many fish himself, but once compared with other people who go out to sea to fish, it's not just a lot, but a lot more.
