Chapter 45 Devil Fish



Yu Shengnan bought a fishing boat very professionally, but she also spent 6,000 yuan to enroll in a seaman's certificate training class that she had never heard of.

The Golden Week is over, and the streets of Wanghai Village have changed from being shoulder to shoulder to being populated by a few cats and dogs.

Yu Shengnan went to the only two fishing spots he had visited before. As for why he didn't go out to sea, it was because he was still studying for his seaman's certificate (definitely not because he was not proficient in sailing).

Yu Shengnan had always thought this fishing spot was good, but he had never been there. This time he came here with high hopes for it.

The weather was good today, but the waves in Baisha Bay were quite big.

It's a great fishing day with high waves and beautiful weather, just when pufferfish are about to come out.

That’s right, the first fish Yu Shengnan caught was a puffer fish.

It's a small pufferfish with sharp teeth and beak. The fish is caught, but the line needs to be changed.

Comrade Yu Shengnan was helpless. He just learned how to change the line and tie the hook, which came in handy.

As for the little pufferfish that just came up, I pinched it with my hands and saw that the little guy immediately became angry. The angry look of this guy was very cute.

It is cute, but the fur is useless and cannot be eaten. The puffer fish poison in the puffer fish's body can kill people directly, so it must be prepared by a professional chef who is familiar with the method of handling puffer fish, otherwise it is better not to eat it.

But among the chefs who know how to handle puffer fish, who knows how to handle small puffer fish? Generally, no one will want a small puffer fish even if you give it away for free.

It cannot be said that the little puffer fish is useless. Yu Shengnan used it to polish her shoes, and it felt quite good. After the puffer fish got angry, its bulging skin was rubbed on the leather shoes, and the shoes were soon polished to a shiny finish.

"Go!"

The little pufferfish flew into the water in the distance.

Yu Shengnan has now adapted to the life of fishing. If you usually have a quick temper, you can try fishing, which can help you calm down.

Even though Yu Shengnan knew that there were fish below and he was using live shrimp as bait, he could "see" whether his bait was eaten, but even so, he could only wait. After all, if the takeaway was delivered to your doorstep, you still have to ask them to accept it. If they don't accept it, no matter how anxious you are, it will be useless.

I don’t know what kind of fish that big fishing shadow below is, but it is as steady as an old dog and not in a hurry at all.

Yu Shengnan held a fishing rod in one hand and took out her mobile phone with the other hand to watch short videos.

Suddenly, he raised his right hand, but the fishing rod in his hand did not go up. Instead, he pressed it down hard, and then the spinning reel turned rapidly, and a large amount of line was released.

"Fortunately, I relaxed the force," Yu Shengnan had already put away her phone.

The moment he lifted the rod with one hand, he knew that the fish was not small, at least twenty kilograms.

But seeing how much line had escaped in such a short time, he thought he might have made a mistake and the fish might be even bigger.

But as long as you don't have a tangent line, no matter how big the kite is, I will definitely pull it back for you.

A tug-of-war competition was carried out in a tense and orderly manner.

Yu Shengnan tightened the unloading force, placed the fishing rod against her belly, quickly lifted the rod up, and then when she swung the rod down, she quickly turned the spinning wheel and reeled the line back in quickly.

Time passed little by little, and Yu Shengnan felt that victory was getting closer and closer. When it seemed that the fish was about to give up, she suddenly felt her hand loosen.

Then he felt, all of a sudden, his vision went dark, and then a cold slap in the face made him a little dazed.

"Lying bags!"

Yu Shengnan came back to her senses and saw the situation clearly. She was a little stunned, but only for a moment. She quickly threw the thing in front of her aside.

He quickly stood up, took out a pair of scissors from the fishing box, and walked over with the scissors.

"I called you a cow, I told you to slap me, but if I can't kill you, humph!"

This was a big manta ray. After Yu Shengnan cut off the fish's tail, he felt at ease to slap the fish, as revenge for the slap he had just received.

It turned out that this manta ray was too smart. It may have felt that it had no hope of escape, so it chose to fight to the death. No, it should be said that if I die, you will not have an easy life either. It took the initiative to fly out of the water and attack Yu Shengnan. This guy can be said to have died quite bravely.

After handling the manta ray, Yu Shengnan hesitated. Should he still fish? The manta ray was quite large, nearly a meter in diameter and probably weighed 70 or 80 kilograms. The fishing box wouldn't hold it all, but he didn't think it was necessary to take it back with just this one fish.

After some thought, I finally threw the fish in the back of the pickup truck and poured the ice on top. With the ice keeping the fish cool, it wouldn't go bad in the first place.

Devil ray, scientifically known as Manta ray, belongs to the phylum Chordata, class Chondrichthyes, order Rayiformes.

This fish has a diamond-shaped body disc and a slender, whip-like tail. The blowhole is large and located just behind the eye. The teeth are broad and flat, with the middle row wider than the lateral rows. It has a single dorsal fin at the base of the tail, which may be accompanied by a serrated caudal spine. The anterior portion of the pectoral fins is differentiated into the snout, which connects to the pectoral fins on the side of the head.

The tail spines of the manta ray are poisonous. The one stingray in the saying "one stingray, two tiger rays and three sand rays" refers to the manta ray.

Yu Shengnan had seen manta rays before, but this was the first time she had seen a live one this big. Manta rays are usually not expensive in the market, but what about a large one?

"Master Fan, how much do we charge for the giant manta ray?" Yu Shengnan called Chef Fan in the kitchen of Oriental Seafood City.

"Manta? That fish isn't worth much. Even a big one is only worth 30 or 35. How big is your manta?"

"It's about one meter wide. I didn't weigh it exactly, but I estimate it's at least 70 or 80 kilograms." Yu Shengnan was not sure either, so she could only give a rough estimate.

"How big? 70 or 80 kilograms? Wait a minute, where are you? I'll be there right away." Chef Fan's indifferent attitude immediately changed.

The fish that Yu Shengnan catches are not those caught by fishing boats at sea. The fish he catches are all very fresh.

A customer's mother had her birthday these two days, and the whole company wanted to celebrate the old lady's birthday. I communicated with their store and asked for a "big dish" to liven up the occasion.

The restaurant recommended a 40-pound grouper, but the customer was not very satisfied. He said the dish was not big enough for the company's employees to share. It couldn't be that each person just added a chopstick and had it all. That would make the employees think the boss was too stingy, even though they spent a lot of money.

When Chef Fan heard about the 70-80 kg manta ray, he thought, "Isn't this a great dish?" That's why he rushed over to check it out and quickly pulled the fish over.

Haha, hearing the other party's anxious tone, Yu Shengnan was no longer anxious. Since you like this fish, you can't give me the price according to ordinary goods, right?

The result was just as he expected. Chef Fan drove his men directly to Baisha Bay to catch the fish.

"Uh, not bad, 86 kilograms. Mr. Yu, without further ado, 60 per kilogram. How about rounding it up to 5,000 for you?"
