251. Chapter 249: Hunting Sharks and Cutting Shark Fins



The shark didn't show up, and Zhang Ze didn't know what was happening underwater.

However, he guessed that these sharks should not be small and might not be easy to catch using a small winch, so he took a bundle of fishing line and wrapped it around the winch used for longline fishing.

This winch is not removed and is used for times like this.

I exchanged ten shark-exclusive baits from the space, but when I took it out, it turned out to be the shape of a small bluefin tuna.

Tie the largest fish hook, put the bait on the fish and throw it into the water.

Before he even started the winch to let out the line, he saw two dorsal fins on the sea surface immediately change direction and swim towards the stern of the Duoyu.

Zhang Ze quickly picked up the javelin, while putting his other hand on the winch switch, ready to start at any time.

The shark was very fast and reached the stern of the boat in the blink of an eye. The straight fishing line suddenly became taut and trembled, and at the same time a huge head jumped out of the water.

It has a mouth full of sharp teeth that can easily tear apart the bodies of its prey.

But Zhang Ze was a little surprised. He thought it was a giant shark like a great white shark or a tiger shark, but he didn't expect it to be a relatively slender blue shark.

The great blue shark is generally between three and four meters long, seemingly smaller than the great white shark and tiger shark, but there have also been some that are seven meters long, which is not small at all.

The one in front of me is not that big, and there is no room for resistance at all from the pulling force of the winch on the opposite side.

Zhang Ze directly stabbed the shark's body with the javelin, but its tough skin was of no use against the javelin and the huge force.

The blood of the great blue shark immediately spread over the surface of the sea, also attracting the attention of other sharks nearby.

But before other sharks arrived, the great blue shark had been completely pulled into the air by the winch. Zhang Ze touched the great blue shark's pointed nose with extremely fast speed and put it into the space.

[Successfully caught a blue shark, weighing 657.88 catties, experience +50. ]

After taking a look at the data in the space, it was three meters six, which was already an adult great blue shark.

Great blue sharks are likely to appear along the coast where humans live. Those that have eaten the carcasses are likely to attack fishermen, so it is better to get rid of them.

The great blue shark in the space is losing vitality continuously, and it is estimated that it will die soon.

Zhang Ze didn't care about it. If it died, it would be automatically expelled from the space, so he continued to hang the bait and fish for the shark.

The smell of blood at the stern attracted sharks to gather around him. This time, after a shark was hooked, it attacked nearby sharks directly because of the noise caused by its struggle.

When a shark is provoked, it doesn't care whether you are of the same species or not. It will just eat you first.

So when the winch pulled up the hooked shark, it was already completely dead, with holes all over its body.

"." Zhang Ze was speechless. His trophy was robbed! But the tail fin and dorsal fin were still connected to the flesh, so he still collected the shark. He didn't care about the fifty experience points.

There were so many sharks gathered here, and as the two fishing boats capsized and the bodies fell into the water, even more sharks were attracted. All the sharks in this sea area were attracted here, and there were quite a few species.

Zhang Ze didn't stop for a moment and kept fishing for sharks.

Sometimes the shark can be caught intact, sometimes it is completely unrecognizable, with only a shark head left.

Zhang Ze would first collect the shark fins that were preserved and bring them aboard. If they were still alive, he would stab them with a javelin and seriously injure them before collecting them into the space.

The species are not limited to blue sharks, large sharks such as mako sharks, great white sharks, and tiger sharks have also appeared one after another.

There are countless small sharks of various kinds, and this place has completely become a paradise for sharks.

Zhang Ze sighed while fishing. He didn't expect there were so many sharks here. It was a bit unrealistic for him to catch all of them.

Therefore, I specially exchanged great white shark bait, tiger shark bait, etc., and caught several types of huge sharks first.

Just ignore those small sharks; they pose no threat to humans anyway.

There were not that many large sharks, and Zhang Ze was busy until three in the morning before the waters returned to calm.

At this time, there were more than a dozen giant sharks over three meters long on his deck.

All the sharks in the space had died naturally and were expelled. While Zhang Ze was fishing, he also took the time to cut off the sharks' fins and threw the bodies back into the sea.

He didn't want to take these sharks that might have eaten the carcasses back to sell for meat, so he only took the shark fins.

Zhang Ze breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that several ferocious large sharks were gone.

Fishing for sharks is not an easy job, and it is so intense that he has to concentrate all the time to avoid being injured by the caught shark due to negligence.

Using a knife, Zhang Ze cut off the fins of more than a dozen sharks on the deck, then used a crane to throw the sharks back into the sea. He then quickly drove the boat away.

After getting away from Dongsha, he finally felt at ease to come out and clean the smelly deck.

The mucus from the shark's skin dries on the deck and smells really bad.

Fortunately, it was not during the day. If it was exposed to the sun, it would have made people faint, just like a dry toilet in summer.

After finishing his work, Zhang Ze went back to take a shower and then went to bed with peace of mind.

We didn’t catch many fish that night, but we did collect shark fins in two large bamboo baskets, so it was a pretty good harvest.

Although there may not seem to be many shark fins in the two large bamboo baskets, they are the fins of dozens of sharks over three meters long, so the quantity is still sufficient.

The sun was almost rising when Zhang Ze was sleeping, so when he woke up again, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

He prepared some food for Xiao Hei before going to bed. Now it wasn't so hungry that it came to him and urged him to cook quickly.

After washing up, washing and drying last night's dirty clothes, and having lunch, Zhang Ze came to the cab and thought about whether he should go find Jin Sanbao and the others, or continue fishing in Dongsha.

At present, apart from the giant grouper weighing thousands of pounds, there are not many fish left in the space.

At least the remaining space can still hold a lot of fish, and the cold storage compartment only has two baskets of shark fins, which is not much considering the current harvest.

Therefore, Zhang Ze finally decided to continue fishing in Dongsha. The fish resources here are so good that at least he can fill up the space.

Starting the Duoyu, he headed to the coordinates of the location where he went fishing yesterday.

But before that, Zhang Ze made a special trip to the location of the shipwreck.

After one night, the shipwrecks had disappeared on the sea. The water here is about one hundred meters deep. It seems that these two shipwrecks will be difficult to be discovered in a short period of time, and it is possible that no one will discover them until he dies of old age.

But this place will definitely become a very good fishing spot in the future, so he marked the coordinates so that he can come here to fish in the future.

Leaving this place, I returned to the water area where I fished last night and found the fishing spot last night using the fish finder.

The fish finder was still crimson, but the range was smaller than last night, and there were a lot more scattered red dots around it.

The water here is deep enough that even in the middle of the day it has little impact on the bottom of the water.

It is already autumn, and all marine creatures are actively looking for food to fatten themselves up for the winter.

So Zhang Ze didn't care that some fish would be resting in the afternoon. He went to the deck, lifted the black cloth, took out the bait, hung it up and started fishing.

However, the fish bites were much worse in the afternoon, even though we used the magic bait, but the continuous fishing that we experienced last night was gone.

Five fishing rods were used at the same time. After waiting for a while, one of them showed some movement.

The fishing rod didn't bend much, and it was obvious that the fish that took the hook was just average, not at all comparable to the one that weighed at least ten pounds last night.

The fish had no power to resist the winch and soon appeared on the surface of the water.

A green fish weighing about three or four pounds.

[Successfully caught a striped sea bream, weighing 3.65 catties, experience +5. ]

It is a very common deep-sea fish. Its price in later generations is estimated to be around fifty or sixty yuan. There are certain differences among regions, but the difference is not big.

Now in the 1980s, the price is still acceptable. Because it is a deep-sea fish, it is more expensive than some coastal fish and can be sold for 55 cents per pound.

The common names of these sea areas are actually quite interesting. Yellow chicken refers to three-line sea bass; red chicken refers to purple snapper.

Zhang Ze couldn't understand why they were called chickens. However, the movement from another fishing rod attracted his attention, and he didn't continue to be entangled in these colorful chickens.

After a while, another bluefin bream came up, also weighing about three or four pounds. It seemed that a group of bluefin breams had come to the bottom of the water!

After collecting the fish here, he caught another fish there. This is not bad. It’s not very efficient but at least he can’t stop.

After catching a series of bluefin bream, the bamboo pole suddenly bent violently.

Okay, finally a big one has arrived.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The fish struggled so hard that if it were a real electric reel, the fishing line would have been pulled out.

But now that the winch was started, the big fish had no way to resist, and the tip of the fishing rod almost touched the hull.

The speed remained the same, and Zhang Ze didn't have to wait long before a red octopus about 1.5 meters long appeared on the water surface.

Lying on his side on the water, he seemed to have little strength left.

The pressure change from the deep sea to the surface was too great, causing serious damage to the octopus' internal organs, and it really didn't have much strength to struggle.

The fish was a bit big, so Zhang Ze simply took out the hook, took aim, hooked the fish's back, and then pulled the fish up with force.

It was estimated to be more than 100 kilograms, and he had a hard time lifting it. He put it into the space and took a look. It was more than 120 kilograms.

What a pity, it was only thirty pounds away from becoming the king of fish.

But this fish did give him some comfort and made him more enthusiastic about fishing.

But the rest of the harvest was just that, mostly green croakers, with a few red croakers occasionally, and no groupers at all, probably because they were all sleeping.

By the time of dinner in the evening, there were more than 120 fish in the space.

After dinner, Zhang Ze played with Xiao Hei for a while to help digest the food, and then prepared to continue.

He noticed lights in the distance and immediately became alert.

He quickly carried Xiao Hei to the cockpit, stowed the anchor, turned off most of the lights on the boat, and was ready to leave at any time.

If it is a fishing boat, there is nothing to worry about. But if it is a coast guard ship, it must leave.

Holding the telescope, when he saw the ship, he turned around and left without hesitation. It was indeed a coast guard ship from Taiwan.

The two ships were sailing on the sea one after the other, and the ship behind could not catch up with him at all.

At this time, in the wheelhouse of the coast guard ship, a coast guard put down the radio and cursed: "Damn it, that guy turned off the radio and we can't contact him at all."

"I can't catch up here either, how about we just forget it?"

"Let's go, it looks like a fishing boat, nothing to chase."

When the coast guard saw that they couldn’t catch up, they simply gave up. Their purpose was to expel fishing boats from the mainland.

I originally wanted to contact him to warn or intimidate him, but since I couldn't get through, I had to give up.

Zhang Ze had been keeping an eye on the other party, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them turn around and stop chasing him.

He didn't expect that this trip to the sea would be so exciting. He saw a lot of dead bodies last night, took a lot of spray guns, and fished for a lot of sharks.

I was fishing today but was discovered by the Taiwan Coast Guard. What bad luck.

But seeing that he could catch a lot of fish at night, it would be a waste of time to leave, and Zhang Ze was actually quite unwilling to do so.

If you can't fish for him, he'll leave in the afternoon, so why stay until the evening?

So after driving for a distance and losing sight of the coast guard ship, Zhang Ze decisively turned back.

You thought I left? Hey, you didn't expect me to be back! When Zhang Ze returned to the original fishing spot, the coast guard ship had disappeared.

There were very few mainland fishermen coming to Dongsha to fish at this time. They really didn't expect Zhang Ze to dare to come back, and they had already gone to patrol other places.

Turn off most of the lights on the boat, leaving only one light on the left side. Although it is dim, it allows him to work normally.

The warning light is also turned off. This is the signal light, and others can see it from a long distance.

At present, there are not many fishermen coming to Dongsha to fish, and even most of the fishermen in Taiwan are in the near sea.

The fish resources there are better, and the fish near the coast can fully satisfy them.

And if there is a fishing boat approaching, Xiao Hei will remind him.

I glanced at the fish finder and determined that the fish were out and about at night. There was a large area of ​​red at the bottom of the screen, and it looked like there would be no fewer red spots than last night.

Zhang Ze hurried out to fish, and soon he was able to catch the first few rods in a row.

Various precious deep-sea fish and large deep-sea groupers were caught for free, and almost none of them weighed less than five kilograms.

By around ten o'clock in the evening, the space of more than 300 cubic meters was filled.

Zhang Ze had to stop fishing and take out some deep-sea fish that needed to be refrigerated and put them in the cold storage compartment for storage.

Fish like red snapper were also taken out, bled and moved to the cold storage compartment.

Only some high-value fish and groupers are still left in the space for the time being, but a large area has also been cleared.

It was only eleven o'clock when he finished, and Zhang Ze continued to fill the space.

At 1:30 in the morning, the space was full again. He then put away his fishing rod with satisfaction, covered it with a black cloth, started the Duoyu and left this place, heading towards Jin Sanbao.

It takes seven or eight hours to get there. Zhang Ze thought that the catch from fishing during the day would be low, so he decided to go there overnight.

It was not until about nine o'clock in the morning that he arrived at the island and found Jin Sanbao and others collecting the fishing nets.

"Hey, Aze, you finally came. I thought you went somewhere else to fish and wouldn't come this time!" Jin Sanbao and others were very surprised to see him.

"Then we still have to come. Where are Ah Hang and the others?"

"They are busy and may not be back until the evening."

"Is that so? Then I'll go back and have some sleep. I've been here all night and I'm so sleepy!"

Since the brothers-in-law were not around, Zhang Ze did not mention the spray gun. He simply took it out after a good night's sleep, lest Jin Sanbao and his men stop him from asking him questions. (End of this chapter)
