As soon as Fu Wan finished speaking, Fu Ming was the first to applaud.
Upon hearing that he was going fishing, his bad mood from the recent seabird attack on Bright Peak vanished, and he immediately perked up.
"Haha, come on, I'm sure I'm not the one washing the dishes!"
Ah Liang, hurry up and pick out a fishing rod, or you'll have a lot of work to do tonight!
Fu Liang was immediately displeased. It wasn't that he didn't want to wash the dishes, but the competition hadn't even started yet, so how could he be sure he would lose in the end?
"I won't lose, you just wait!"
He left a sentence and hurriedly ran towards the rest cabin without looking back. Ye Lin was puzzled and turned to look at Fu Ming.
"What's Liangzi doing?"
Unexpectedly, Fu Ming just chuckled and ran towards the rest cabin as well.
The two men's strange behavior left Ye Lin even more baffled.
Fu Wan chuckled speechlessly, "I should know, those two must have gone to get their fishing rods."
These two didn't like the fishing rod she brought out; they must have gone to the rest cabin to find the imported lure fishing rod that Jack had sent them earlier.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lin's eyes lit up and he immediately followed her to the rest cabin.
Although he doesn't have any imported fishing rods, he has hands, so he can just steal them!
Seeing that the three of them had run away, Fu Qing scratched his head and picked out a large fishing rod first.
Seeing this, the remaining Fu Xiaochuan and the others rushed forward to pick up fishing rods.
Actually, all these fishing rods are quite good. Apart from the big fishing rod that Fu Qing picked out, half of the others were fishing rods that Fu Ming and Boss Fu had gotten from Grandpa Fu.
The other half was made by Boss Fu himself from bamboo.
In no time, everyone had a fishing rod in their hand. Fu Wan ran over and brought out the bait she had prepared earlier, and shared some with everyone.
In the short time that followed, Fu Ming, Fu Liang, and Ye Lin returned from the rest cabin. To Fu Wan's surprise, Ye Lin was also carrying a lure fishing rod.
"Brother Lin, where did you get this fishing rod?"
Fu Wan noticed that the fishing rod looked familiar, and Ye Lin chuckled, "I borrowed it from my uncle."
"These two beasts won't even let me touch my precious fishing rod."
Fu Ming rolled his eyes at him. "What are you talking about? Do you think I'm stupid? You think you can just touch me and then give me back?"
Ye Lin laughed heartily, and had to admit that he definitely wouldn't pay it back.
Fu Wan couldn't help but shake her head with a smile. Ye Lin was really smart. If he couldn't steal or cheat, going to Boss Fu to borrow was also a way.
With the fishing rods in place, everyone found a spot to cast their bait. Fortunately, the boat's deck was over ten meters long, and everyone chose their preferred direction, stood on either side of the deck, baited their hooks, and cast their lines with all their might.
Looking at the bait in the bucket, Fu Wan remembered the longline fishing she had released earlier.
She was already asleep when she was reeling in the longline fishing bait in the early morning, so she didn't know what kind of seafood she had caught.
Upon hearing this, Fu Dahai, who had participated in the early morning raid, quickly answered.
"I don't know if it was because of the trawling, but the longline fishing didn't yield much this time."
Sixty hooks were set up on both sides, but only about twenty sea bass and a few yellowfin seabream weighing about a pound each were pulled up.
The rest were all fish smaller than the palm of your hand, nothing valuable.
Fu Wan wasn't too disappointed, because she had guessed from the beginning that she wouldn't gain much.
If there had been any good results, they would have already told me about it.
No wonder no one mentioned longline fishing all day.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Fu Xiaochuan's voice rang out in delight.
"I've got a fish! I've got a fish!"
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Fu Shi, who was closest to him, simply gave his fishing rod to Fu Erlu, while he ran to pick up a hand net from the side, ready to help scoop the fish out after Fu Xiaochuan pulled it up.
As a child who grew up by the sea, Fu Xiaochuan would make his own fishing rod from tree branches and fish in the small sea trench when he was five or six years old.
So although he is not yet twenty, he has been fishing for more than ten years.
Fu Wan and the others watched as he skillfully reeled in the fish. However, before the fish could be reeled in, Fu Qing felt the fishing rod in her hand sink, and she had also caught a fish!
"Me too, my fishing rod has fish too!"
Fu Qing pulled hard on the fishing rod, and Fu Wan, seeing that she was only using brute force, hurriedly corrected her movements.
"Aqing, don't rush. Don't try to outmuscle the fish like that. Let it swim with the fish's strength, and then reel in the line when it stops swimming."
Although Fu Qing has a childlike nature, her greatest strength is that she is obedient.
Rather, it was because she had an exceptionally strong learning ability; she did exactly what Fu Wan told her to do, and the fish wasn't very strong. Before long, Fu Qing pulled the fish out of the water even faster than Fu Xiaochuan.
"It's Shi Jiugong!"

Fu Wan recognized the fish at a glance. Fang Min reached out with a net and scooped the fish up. Seeing that she was about to reach out to remove the hook from the fish's mouth, Fu Wan quickly stopped her.
"Fang Min, wait a minute, this fish is poisonous, we need to find something to remove the hook."
After saying that, Fu Ming took a pair of scissors and brought them closer.
"I'll do it, you all put it down."
Wearing gloves, he deftly cut off the poisonous barbs from Shi Jiugong's back before removing the fishhook from the fish's mouth.
This stone goby weighs about a pound, which is considered large for a stone goby. Fu Qing was overjoyed and immediately grabbed Fu Wan, asking, "Wan, is the fish valuable?"
"It's valuable and delicious. Ah Qing, take it back in a couple of days and have your mother make soup with it."
"Okay, let's make soup. Wan, have some!" After saying that, she looked at Fang Min, "Min, have some too!"
Fu Ming was displeased upon hearing this, "Fine, Fu Qing, I'll get you the fishhook, why don't you ask me to go drink?"
Fu Qing made a face, "Brother Ming won't let me drink!"
Seeing her smug smile, Fu Ming was about to speak when he heard another commotion coming from Fu Xiaochuan's place.
"The fish's up! The fish's up! Hey, what's this thing?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan and the others stood curiously by the side of the boat and looked down.
A fish the size of an adult's palm surfaced from the water, its golden body shimmering in the sunlight. Fu Qing couldn't help but exclaim, "What a beautiful fish!"
What kind of fish is this?
Fu Dahai examined the fish carefully for a moment and finally came to a conclusion.
"Golden pineapple, this is a golden pineapple."
After he said that, Fu Wan realized why the fish seemed so familiar.
I saw it once a few months ago when we were trawlers; it was a golden-red expanse that Fu Wan still remembers vividly.
This golden pineapple wasn't very big, but it was quite strong, and it kept Fu Xiaochuan on his heels for more than ten minutes.

Fu Xiaochuan was very happy that the first fish was so beautiful.
At least, he definitely won't have to wash the dishes tonight.
The others, including Fu Erlu, were also filled with envy, wishing they could catch a fish right away.
Fu Wan wasn't in a hurry. She reeled in her fishing rod, added some more bait, and then cast it out with force.
Within five minutes, her fishing rod made a sound.
