Yellowback snapper?
Su Ran tried hard to remember the name, but she always believed that a bad pen is worse than a good memory, so she immediately ran to the cabin to take out the notebook and paper she had brought from her bag and wrote down what Fu Wan had said.
"Hey, Reporter Su, if you were to write all of this down, wouldn't you be incredibly busy?"
There are countless fish in the sea; if Su Ran were to write them all down, her notebook would be overflowing.
Su Ran smiled confidently, "No matter how much is in the sea, as long as I see it, I will write it down and then publish it in the newspaper so that more people can see it."
This is our mission as journalists!
These words were so powerful that they shocked Fu Ming and Ye Lin, these roughnecks.
Fu Wan was equally shocked, and in addition, she also felt some admiration.
Always remembering your original aspiration as a journalist is something that is truly invaluable, both now and in the future.
In those days, television was not common, and news was mainly delivered to the public through newspapers and radio.
Journalists are the eyes and pens of the masses; the public relies on them to understand society.
This shows how important it is to be a good journalist. However, both now and in the future, many people forget their original aspirations and focus solely on using public traffic to achieve sensationalism.
They don't care if the facts are distorted or there are false reports.
"Reporter Su, you are a good reporter!"
"Right? I think so too!"
Su Ran smiled gently, then urged Fu Wan to continue describing the fish in the bucket.
This was the first fish she had ever caught, so it was definitely worth writing a report about.
Even if she doesn't make it into the newspaper, she can still take her notebook and photos back to show her parents and let them admire the fish she caught!
Fu Wan and the others praised her several times until Su Ran became embarrassed. Fu Wan then laughed and began to describe the typical characteristics of the yellow-backed snapper.
There are many types of sea bream, and the yellow-backed snapper, as its name suggests, is characterized by its yellow back.
In fact, not only does the yellowback snapper have prominent yellow spots on its back, but its mouth is also a striking yellow, and its pectoral fins are much longer than those of the red snapper.
If you pick it up and pry open its mouth, you can see its sharp, conspicuous teeth.

This fish has a good texture. Although it can't compare to red sea bream or yellowfin sea bream, it tastes very delicious when steamed and then stir-fried with scallion oil.
When Fu Wan mentioned this, Su Ran couldn't help but swallow. Su Jianshe wasn't much better off; the two of them had vomited up everything they had eaten, and their stomachs were now empty, just when they were starving.
But if she offered them something to eat, Su Ran worried that they might vomit and it would be a waste.
Forget it, I'll wait until the seasickness subsides before talking about it!
After putting the yellowback snapper into the live water tank, Ye Lin and Fang Min's fishing rods also started to move. Fu Ming said he wasn't in a hurry, but in his heart he kept making grand promises to the Goddess Mazu.
If he catches a big fish, he'll go back and burn incense at the temple!
He not only donated money for incense, but he also brought two fish with him!
Oh dear, if I were to catch a fish, a grouper would be the best. Thinking back to that big red grouper, Fu Ming felt as if he were back in the time when he was struggling with the red grouper.
The grouper was so strong that his fishing rod broke, but if he were given another chance to use his precious fishing rod, he would definitely not break it!
Whether it was Mazu who actually heard him or not, Fu Ming was still imagining how he would struggle with the fish when the fishing line suddenly sank sharply.
"Fish, fish! My grouper is here!"
Fu Ming roared and quickly adjusted his stance to start pulling on the fish.
He is no longer the novice fisherman he once was; he is now Niohuru Ming!
Unfortunately, Niu Hulu Ming could also sense that the fish was not very big. Even so, he pulled on it for less than ten minutes, and seeing that the fish was about to emerge from the water, Fu Ming was also very excited.
He hurriedly called to Fu Wan and the others beside him, "Quick, quick, get me a net!"
"Here you go, don't rush!"
Ye Lin held the handwritten website aside, while Fu Wan and the others were also busy, their eyes all on the fishing rod in Fu Ming's hand.
But just then, there was a loud crash, and the fishing rod in Fu Ming's hand flew out again. Fu Wan reflexively reached out to pick it up, but Fu Ming was faster and grabbed the fishing rod that had already been dragged to the side of the boat.
"Holy crap, my fish has been eaten!"
He had just seen clearly that a fish weighing at least fifty pounds opened its mouth wide and swallowed the fish he was about to pull out of the water!
Su Ran and Su Jianshe were both stunned, their mouths agape, wide enough to fit an egg.
Good heavens, is sea fishing always this exciting?!
Su Ran was the first to react, quickly putting away her fishing rod and running towards the cabin.
She wanted to find her camera and take a picture of the scene!
Su Jianshe realized belatedly that he regretted not bringing the station's camera equipment with him today.
There was no way around it; that was one of the station's most valuable fixed assets. If he dared to take it out casually, the leaders would kill him.
However, since Su Ran took the photos, that's fine. They can just select some photos to put in the news later.
While Su Ran was snapping photos, Fu Ming's forehead veins were bulging as he gritted his teeth and battled the giant beast in the sea.
He was certain that the fish wasn't a shark or a whale, and his fish wasn't that tasty. Since the fish had swallowed his fish, he was going to have to pull it up!
But big fish in the sea aren't so easy to catch. Fu Wan and the others took fishing hooks and looked for landing nets.
Even Fu Erlv picked up the throwing net that was lying next to him.
After another ten minutes or so, Fu Ming was completely exhausted. Seeing this, Ye Lin took advantage of the moment when the fish stopped to catch its breath and quickly switched the fishing rod from Fu Ming's hand to his own.
Fu Ming collapsed onto the deck, utterly exhausted, his lips trembling, and it took him a long time to finish his sentence.
"Pull, pull the damn fish! We have to get this fish up!"
Fu Wan leaned against the side of the boat and looked into the water. Through the churning water, she saw the enormous shape of the fish.
It was a fish that was at least 1.5 meters long and weighed about 100 kilograms.
Although it was a bit big, Fu Wan was immediately relieved. Now she was at least sure that the fish was not an aggressive swordfish or marlin, so she could go into the water to help!
Thinking this, Fu Wan ran to the cabin to find her flippers. Fu Ming noticed her action and was immediately stunned.
"Ah Wan, what are you doing? Are you going to go into the water?"
Fu Wan took off her coat, revealing a gray-black mermaid outfit.
"Yes, brother, I saw that fish. It's a big grouper. This isn't going to work. I'll go down and give it a couple of cuts."
"What?! Grouper?! I'm going too!"
Fu Ming struggled to stand up, but he was too exhausted to do so.
Seeing this, Fang Min quickly stepped forward and said, "Awan, I'll go with you."
"I'm going too!"
Fu Qing also shouted, but Fu Wan shook her head and refused. She pulled out the knife that Ye Jianguo had just bought and smiled confidently.
"No need, you guys stay here and help pull the fish up with the hook later!"
