Breakwaters have obvious advantages, but they also have a very serious drawback.
The rocks below were covered with slippery seaweed and moss, and some were covered with sharp oysters and raw oysters, making them very dangerous.
When Chen Weiqiang came here to fish before, he accidentally slipped and fell in, and was covered in scrapes and abrasions.
Although the grandfather and grandson wore non-slip shoes, they didn't dare to go fishing down there carelessly, and instead stood on the lower part of the slope.
There was no other way; the stone piers below were mostly covered with oysters and mussels, their shells as sharp as knives. If they rolled down, they would have a hard time explaining themselves when they got home.
Grandpa Chen cast his fishing hook forcefully into the sea, then asked an old man not far away:
"Brother, do you have a mouth?"
The old man smiled faintly, "It's alright, mostly little guys like Shi Jiugong and Golden Pomfret."
After waiting for several minutes without any movement from her fishing rod, Chen Zhiyao simply took out her phone to read a novel.
I just gave the author a free little gift when I heard a sound of someone slapping their thigh nearby.
Chen Zhiyao heard the commotion around her and from what they said, she roughly learned what had happened.
It turned out that someone had their line cut, and the person was so excited that they kept slapping their thigh. Just hearing the sound made Chen Zhiyao feel pain.
I bet his thighs are bruised from slapping.
But that makes sense, considering the sharp rocks below, and many oysters that are like knives, which would easily break the fishing line.
As Chen Zhiyao was watching the excitement, she suddenly felt a sharp tug on her fishing rod, the reel screeching and the line snaking out wildly.
The fish caught on the hook were in excruciating pain and thrashed wildly in the sea, losing all sense of reason.
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
As the big fish struggled, the fishing reel in Chen Zhiyao's hand creaked and the fishing rod bent dramatically.
"This fish must weigh at least ten or twenty pounds."
Chen Zhiyao grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and excitedly prepared to get started.
But the next second, the fishing line in my hand suddenly slipped, and it floated lightly on the surface of the sea.
It's obvious she was cut off.
"..."
Chen Zhiyao hesitated, her face full of unspoken curses, and her right hand kept slapping her thigh.
When I came to my senses, I felt a sharp pain in my hands and thighs.
She'd been fishing quite well these past couple of days, but this was the first time her line had been cut, and it was with a big one at that, which really annoyed her.
Chen Zhiyao cursed and switched to a thicker fishing line, then hooked on a lively, wriggling shrimp.
As soon as the fishing hook hit the water, Chen Zhiyao felt a fish bite. However, after only two seconds of excitement, she realized that the fish was very weak.
There was no need to play the small fish at all. Chen Zhiyao quickly reeled in the line and easily caught a rock goby from the sea.
"Strange, I clearly used the big hook, so why is it this little guy again?" Chen Zhiyao said, looking puzzled.
Grandpa Chen, who was not far away, laughed as if he was used to it: "Shi Jiugong has a big mouth and is greedy. Even with a big hook, he often catches this guy."
Grandpa Chen often goes fishing and has a great attitude. Even though he hasn't caught a single fish yet, he remains calm and composed.
Just as Chen Zhiyao caught another stone goby, Grandpa Chen's fishing rod finally made a move.
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
The fish must have been quite large; the fishing line on the reel suddenly stretched out to over ten meters, and the fishing rod gradually began to bend.
Grandpa Chen, who had been calm and collected, suddenly became excited and shouted loudly:
"That force must have been at least ten kilograms."
As the old man spoke, the surrounding fishermen all looked over, both envious and excited.
Amidst the envious gazes of those around him, Grandpa Chen began to play with the fish with great joy, his palms sweating with excitement.
The fish in the sea are quite strong, but they lack stamina. After only ten minutes, they were exhausted and unable to resist.
Taking advantage of the creature's exhaustion, Grandpa Chen frantically spun the fishing reel, trying to pull it up before it regained its strength.
Before long, a large, yellowish-brown creature with black stripes was pulled out of the sea.
"Wow, this tiger grouper is huge! It must weigh at least eight or nine pounds."
Looking at this huge fish, Chen Zhiyao, who was holding a net and waiting to catch it, was extremely envious.
Meanwhile, the onlookers were all silently chanting "decoupling, decoupling, decoupling" in their hearts.
Chen Zhiyao was quite reliable; she steadily retrieved the valuable tiger grouper.
Tiger grouper is a type of grouper. Its body is yellowish-brown with black stripes, which look like tiger fur, hence its name.
Although tiger grouper has delicious meat, it is relatively inexpensive compared to other grouper.
Cats weighing less than 5 jin (2.5 catties) are 30 yuan per jin (0.5 kg), but cats like the one she has, weighing eight or nine jin (4.5-5 catties), can easily sell for forty or fifty yuan per jin (0.5-0.5 kg).
Tiger Spot
Grandpa Chen, beaming with joy, had his granddaughter take pictures of him and the grouper, changing poses several times, his smile deepening the wrinkles on his face.
Immediately afterwards, the fishermen around him gathered around, shamelessly asking the old man to lend them fish for photos, and the breakwater became as lively as a market.
Looking at these excited men, Chen Zhiyao chuckled to herself, wondering if she should charge them admission fees.
At this moment, the old man sitting next to Grandpa Chen walked over to him:
"I'll offer 500 yuan, will you sell this fish?"
If you sell it to a recycling center, the price will be about the same. However, if you sell it to a private individual, the price will be different.
Grandpa Chen calmly placed the fish into the bucket. "This price is too low. Tiger grouper this big is not common."
The old man standing to the side had actually been out of the fishing spot for a long time and had been ridiculed by his fellow anglers quite a bit recently.
Today I finally managed to catch two two-ounce stone goby fish, and now looking at this nearly ten-pound tiger barb, I'm so envious my eyes are practically red.
In the end, the old man spent 600 yuan to buy Grandpa Chen's tiger-striped dog.
Then he immediately picked up the fish, grinned, and asked the onlookers to take videos and photos, pretending that he had caught the fish himself.
Chen Zhiyao has been here for an hour, and apart from the fish that got away after the line broke at the beginning, her fishing rod hasn't moved at all.
Seeing that her phone was almost out of battery, I quickly put it away and then lifted the fishing hook. The shrimp on the hook was still perfectly intact.
She was too far from the sea to use her X-ray vision, so she had to switch to a smaller hook and try to catch small fish in the middle and upper layers of the water.
Chen Zhiyao replaced all the fishing hooks and sinkers, and then hooked a shrimp the size of a fingernail onto the hook.
Less than a minute after the hook went into the water, I felt the fishing rod vibrate. However, the fish wasn't very strong; judging from its strength, it should be a small fish weighing a little over a pound.
The fish wasn't big, so Chen Zhiyao didn't bother with playing it and quickly spun the reel to reel in the line.
With a "whoosh," a flat-bodied creature with a silver-gray body and a yellow tail and back was pulled out of the sea.
Chen Zhiyao has a good eye; she recognized it as a golden pomfret at a glance.
Golden pomfret
Golden pomfret, also known as yellow pomfret, has a laterally compressed shape, a silver-gray color, and black stripes on its body.
Although this fish is not expensive, its flesh is tender and delicious with no small bones. It is delicious whether steamed, braised, pan-fried, or grilled, making it a relatively cost-effective sea fish.
