Chapter 197 Sea Bass Devil Ray
Soon, the first fish was caught.
Song Chuhuai took off the fishhook.
Song Chuman took a look at the fish and said, "It's a sea bass."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sea bass struggled and tried to bite Song Chuhuai.
Song Chuhuai quickly threw it into the wooden barrel, his face pale with fear, "Sister, this fish is so fierce."
"Yes." Song Chuman was worried that her brother and cousin would let down their guard if they encountered this fish in the future, so she patiently explained, "Sea bass have many fine teeth in their mouths and are ferocious. They mainly feed on live animals and will even eat each other. If you encounter one in the future, be careful."
Song Chuhuai looked at the sea bass angrily: "This fish is so mean, it even eats its own kind."
Song Chuman: "Animals in the sea are just like animals on land. The strong prey on the weak. Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. This is normal."
She didn't waste any time and continued fishing.
Ten in a row, all sea bass.
When putting out the bait for the eleventh time, Song Chuman clearly felt that the force this time was stronger than before.
When Song Chuman picked it up and took a look, she narrowed her eyes and smiled: "It's a manta ray."
When Song Chuhuai heard the name, he asked, "Devil fish? Is this fish a devil?"
He Xiaoshuang's body trembled.
Song Chuman: "No, it's just what the fishermen like to call it. It actually has another name, manta ray."
"One reason it's called a manta ray is that when it swims on the seabed, it looks like a bat flying at night, which is a bit scary."
"Another reason is that manta rays often lurk under ships while they're moving, deliberately ramming their chests against the bottom of the boat."
"People on the boat often hear strange noises, which are very scary, as if there are ghosts or demons."
"Gradually they got the nickname manta rays."
After hearing this, Song Hexiu also gained some insights.
He doesn't know as much about seafood as his daughter does.
Song Chuhuai looked at the manta rays with a complicated expression: "They are so bad. Why are all the fish today bad?"
Song Chuman smiled and said, "They're not bad, they just want to have fun and play pranks on purpose. They're very docile and like humans. They're quite smart fish."
Song Chuhuai asked again: "Sister, is this fish delicious?"
Song Hexiu was a little helpless, but he didn't say anything. Children are all greedy, and he was at the age when he was greedy.
Song Chuman nodded: "Of course it is delicious. It has tender meat and rich taste. Whether it is steamed, braised, roasted, pan-fried or deep-fried, it tastes very good."
"But this one is still too small, probably only four or five kilograms. A large manta ray can weigh over a thousand kilograms."
Moreover, they also have the effects of clearing away heat and reducing swelling, resolving lumps and removing toxins.
It is rich in nutrients and can strengthen human bones and prevent osteoporosis.
Song Chuhuai's eyes lit up instantly. "Over a thousand pounds! How big a pot would it take to cook it? How long would it take to finish it?"
Song Chuman said with a smile: "Okay, if you catch a lot later, you can keep one to eat. If you catch few, you can only eat it next time."
"Yeah." Song Chuhuai nodded excitedly.
But today, the Sea Goddess seemed to not want Song Chuhuai to eat it, so the next fish were all yellow croaker.
Song Chuhuai knew that yellow croaker was valuable, but he was not disappointed at all. He was very excited, "What a big yellow croaker, so many yellow croakers."
