Old Axe steered the boat toward the second longline fishing spot.
It was still Wu Anqi who floated the boat.
First, I checked my luck value; it was completely depleted.
Winch operation.
As the longline was pulled from the water, and Wu Anxuan saw the sea fish with only its head remaining after being bitten, his heart sank.
Fortunately, it was only the first few fish that were poisoned; the rest of the catch was unharmed.
They also caught quite a few valuable fish, including rock bream, grouper, pomfret, sea bass, and yellowfin bream...
And they are all quite large.
I also asked them to use relatively large hooks, because very small fish are difficult to catch.
Ah Qing snorted, "The dragon-headed giant knows what's good for it."
"If they dare to continue ruining our catch, I'll make them pay."
The fact that the second longline catch wasn't snatched away improved everyone's mood considerably.
They were packing up their catch, chatting and laughing.
Old Fu shook his head and said, "Whether it's like I am or not, I don't know, but that giant grouper was definitely full."
Everyone's smiles froze.
Ah Qing's eyes lit up: "Wife, can you predict when that giant grouper will get hungry and come out to hunt for food?"
Old Fu said, "Generally speaking, giant grouper come out to hunt for food at night."
"They will most likely be resting on the seabed during the day."
"But not necessarily."
Aqing was a little disappointed: "It takes so long? I was hoping to catch it."
Old Fu laughed and said, "What are you thinking? We can't catch such a big fish with our fishing rods."
"Unless we install a fishing machine on our boat."
Hearing him say that, everyone felt a little discouraged.
When the second set of longline fishing was fully pulled up, the bountiful catch brought smiles to everyone's faces.
There were some unexpected events.
The second set of longline fishing rods had some parts tangled together, but it didn't seem to be caused by the fish struggling and getting tangled up.
Old Fu helped to explain, saying, "Judging from this situation, it seems like a big fish is causing trouble."
Wu Ping was shocked: "They've eaten and drunk their fill, and now they're smashing the pot?"
Old Fu laughed: "Being cultured really makes a difference; that's a very apt description."
Even Wu Ping, who is known for her good temper, couldn't help but curse a couple of times at this point.
This is an insult!
Wu An gritted his teeth and held a grudge in his heart.
We'll have to find a chance to get back at them sooner or later. I wonder if Tiger and his friends can help.
He was bullied so badly, it's only natural that his friends, Tiger, would come to his aid.
Thinking this to himself, he said aloud, "Never mind, let's just consider it giving back to the sea."
It took a lot of effort.
Unable to untangle it, Wu An made a decisive move: he cut off that section of the longline and had his elder brother reconnect it.
Old Fu asked, "Ah An, should we find another spot to do longline fishing?"
Wu An nodded and said, "If we can't afford to offend them, we can at least avoid them. Let's find another place."
Old Fu set sail and recast the longline in waters a little further from Life Island.
This time, the longline fishing was shorter than before, and it consumed another 32 points of luck.
Including the luck points from piloting the fishing boat, he now has 118 luck points.
We've been so busy that it's time for lunch.
Almost 12 hours have passed.
Wu An was a little impatient. According to his estimation, his luck value should be less than 100 at this moment.
The luck value is close to 20.
This means he needs to do another round of longline fishing, and it's uncertain whether he'll be able to manage.
After setting up their longlines, they didn't sit idle; they quickly went to help sort the catch.
The fish caught by these longline fishing lines were mostly dead and had to be sent to the freezer immediately.
And it needs to be delivered as soon as possible.
If they're not fresh, these fish will be a waste of money.
Wu An was in charge of moving the items back and forth into the icehouse.
Each net basket weighs at least twenty or thirty pounds. Carrying it up and down left him breathless with exhaustion.
Although I was tired and hot, and drenched in sweat, I was truly happy.
Mei Wu subconsciously wiped the sweat from his face, forgetting that his hands were covered in filth and the stench made him gag several times.
Even so, she couldn't hide the smile on her face: "I thought you really invited me to come and have fun."
"I didn't expect to be able to catch so many fish."
"These fish caught by longline fishing can probably sell for around ten thousand yuan."
Ah Qing laughed out loud: "Ten thousand yuan? What's the point of us even doing this?"
"I estimate it can sell for forty or fifty thousand."
Old Fu nodded in agreement.
He also estimated that number.
Mei Wu was even more shocked; he thought that being able to make ten thousand yuan was already quite an achievement.
result.
Forty or fifty thousand?
How can you earn so much money in just half a day?
He didn't even dare to think about it.
If everyone could maintain this level of income, they might even make more money than factory owners.
No wonder Wu An invited him to work on the ship; he intended to make money and get rich together with him.
The fish traps and longlines have already been set into the sea, so we don't need to worry about them for the time being.
Old Fu steered the boat into the bay of Life Island, and Wu An asked, "Old Fu, is the tide going out soon?"
Old Fu nodded: "Soon."
"It's already a little past eleven o'clock, why don't we have lunch earlier?"
"After we climb out of the puddle, we should start longline fishing."
Wu An nodded: "Okay."
Once the longline fishing is done, things will get busy, and I estimate I'll be busy until dark.
After all, they had too much fish, and there were only a few people on their boat, so sorting and cleaning it was quite a lot of work.
Wu An thought to himself that if he had known this would happen, he should have called Brother Mei Wen to come aboard and help.
Of all the braised dishes I received for lunch, the fish head was the one I ate the most.
Braised, stewed in soup, and even made into a famous dish called Steamed Fish Head with Chopped Chili using the head of a sea bass.
Apart from Wu An, the others didn't eat much spicy food and were all sweating profusely while eating.
Humans are strange; even when it's so spicy they're sticking their tongues out, they still can't resist stuffing chopsticks into their mouths.
The spicier it is, the more I want to eat it.
After the meal, everyone except Old Fu stayed on the boat to watch over it took small rafts to the island.
Wu An had high hopes for Pan Shui Keng, but he was so busy that the tide came in, and even of the twelve points of luck he had added, he still had two points left.
The catch from the pond was naturally very limited, but everyone had a great time.
Although it didn't consume much luck, it wasn't a wasted trip.
After the tide came in, Old Fu steered the fishing boat closer to the shore. Everyone boarded the boat, rested for a while, and then headed straight for the longline fishing area.
Old Fu suddenly shouted, "Something's not right, A'an, A'an, come and take a look."
Wu An quickly ran over.
I took a look through the binoculars.
The person was a little confused.
"What about longline fishing with a float?"
"What happened to it?"
He was the one who set the longline, and he knew the location very well.
Even if the buoy deviates slightly from its original position, it won't deviate too far. After circling the sea surface, you can't even see the shadow of the buoy.
Aqing and Meiwu, who were smoking, quickly came over when they heard Wu An's shout.
"The float is gone?"
Wu Ping, who was busy at work, quickly ran over, squinted at the object, and suddenly shouted excitedly, "Float! I think I see a float!"
"Just floated up from the sea."
When he shouted that, everyone saw it. They looked at each other and exclaimed in unison, "Holy crap, did we catch a giant grouper?"
