Chapter 373: Shoot a gun and change a cannon
Ye Yaodong quickly pulled the second net up, casually dumped it into the basket and continued to throw, taking advantage of just dispersing, see if can catch two more.
Just things went contrary to wishes, when he threw the third net it was already late.
When pulling the fishing net up, inside was empty, uh also not right, inside still had two small sugar shrimp.
He shook the fishing net, grabbed the two small sugar shrimp in his hand, casually threw them into the basket, "Dog days, speed so fast? Fortunately also caught two nets, also didn't lose."
"Wait a while and see, just now changed a point."
"Go to eldest brother and second brother's side and see."
Ye Fu nodded, steered the boat toward Ye Yaopeng and Ye Yaohua's direction, and kept paying attention to the sea surface.
Ye Yaodong was also the same, eyes watching six directions and ears listening to all sides, at this time didn't put down the net, where water flowers appeared, they could immediately go where, didn't delay at all.
Earlier was caught off guard, too pity.
Just didn't expect that when they paid attention, actually didn't appear again.
"Dad, Dongzi, how many nets did you guys throw just now? Caught how much? I saw your boat was here long ago, did you catch a lot?" As soon as the boat approached, Ye Yaopeng asked.
"Just two nets, seventy-eighty jin, pity, saw it early, just was trawling, couldn't free hands."
"Like this, then pity, saw you guys right around, thought you guys caught quite a few nets. We didn't see at first, were cooking, by the way sorting fish cargo, who knew today appeared so fast?"
Hmm?
Ye Yaodong raised his eyebrows, "Appeared so fast today? Then yesterday also had?"
Ye Yaohua honestly said: "Had, recent two or three days, surrounding sea area often appeared mullet boiling, yesterday seemed to be at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, we just happened to be catching squid, saw from far away, drove over and also caught a hundred jin."
"Yeah, day before yesterday also appeared, but day before yesterday was when we were about to return only then saw, also caught fifty-sixty jin, seeing sky almost dark, we just hurriedly returned."
Ye Fu was surprised, "Then it lasted for many days."
"Right, caught mullet, every belly has fish roe, estimate is spawning season."
"Hmm, mullet roe good thing."
"Just now boiled twice, don't know if there is any, I estimate... came came... there... there..." Ye Yaodong just said half, saw east side appeared large amount of mullet jumping there, instantly excited again.
Just as the voice fell, he immediately ran to steer the boat, this time looking still quite far, fortunately his eyesight was good.
Ye Yaopeng heard the reminder also hurriedly ran to steer the boat.
Two boats one after another drove toward the east side, another boat on the side don't know whose family, seemed to follow closely behind.
This time they came in time, wasn't delayed, truly directly caught up.
When they drove to the front, seabirds were faster than them and flew over after hearing the news, from time to time small fish were picked up in the mid-air.
As soon as Ye Yaodong drove the boat to the front, immediately dropped anchor to fix it, and Ye Fu had already taken the net in his hand when he drove the boat, as soon as the boat slowed down and stopped, he immediately threw the net.
Father and son cooperated tacitly.
When Ye Yaodong walked over, Ye Fu was lifting a net, only saw mullets on the sea surface still jumping constantly, not affected by their three fishing boats at all.
Ye Yaodong reached out to help pull together, this net had big and small, looked at the quantity quite a lot.
He took an empty bamboo basket from the side, as soon as untied the fishing net, mullets "hua-la-la" dumped into the bamboo basket, just dumped in and still jumping there, several fish also jumped out on the deck, full of vitality.
Father and son were happy.
Still fish school good, cargo up fast, one throw one collect is one net.
Ye Fu slightly organized and followed by throwing, Ye Yaodong followed by picking the mullet jumping on the ground into the basket.
Looking into the distance, only saw his eldest brother and second brother also just finished catching a net, preparing to throw the second net.
This time it was better than the previous two times, caught three nets, only then fish was gone.
Ye Fu held the fishing net in his hand, looking at the sea surface and muttering, "Why is this fish still like this? Shoot a gun and change a position."
"Who knows, just take a break in the middle, wait a while and see if there is any? These fish dive into the water, don't know which direction swam to."
"Isn't this delaying things? Driving the boat over also delayed several minutes, otherwise could throw two more nets... this is going where to find?"
"I'll go steer the boat, turn around in the vicinity and see."
"Want to follow and run, still can't see the shadow." Ye Fu muttered and dragged the baskets of fish at his feet to the corner, took ice cubes out of the cabin and sprinkled them on, and took a few tattered clothes to cover, blocking the sunlight.
Hot weather is just this point not good, have to buy ice cubes separately, otherwise fish will be sun-dried and smelly, this flatly added an expense.
"Dongzi, after returning go cut a piece of sunshade, tie it on the top, otherwise wait until the weather gets hot it's too sunny."
"Good."
Last year the small wooden boat top was empty and couldn't cover, this iron boat still has a small cabin, can also tie it, the other side can also tie to the mast.
Their fishing boat ran while patrolling the surroundings, the other two boats also moved, all thinking about trying luck again, see if can bump into it?
Trawling didn't have the fast harvest of encountering a fish school.
Ye Yaodong not only watched six directions and listened to all sides, he also kept paying attention to the seabirds flying on the sea surface, seeing that at this time many seabirds flew toward the northeast direction, he also followed the seabirds and drove toward that direction.
Generally places where seabirds gather will have fish schools, just now several mullet schools attracted seabirds.
He felt following seabirds, definitely wouldn't be wrong.
And Ye Yaopeng two brothers saw Ye Yaodong's boat suddenly far away, didn't know what happened, but also followed, all own family, gathering together can also have a care.
The other boat thought they gave up searching, left, didn't care about them, well water doesn't offend river water, continued to turn around in the vicinity.
Ye Yaodong drove along the direction where a group of seabirds flew, only saw seabirds suddenly flying more and more, confidence greatly increased.
"Dongzi, why are you driving here? Since can't find, gone, let's continue to put nets, don't waste time delaying. Now still have time, can put one more net, after putting go collect longline fishing gear just right."
"Dad, didn't you see seabirds flying more and more toward this direction?"
"Oh? Seems like it."
"Follow and drive a distance over and see."
Drove for another one or two minutes, only saw the sea area in the distance really gathered a large amount of seabirds flying and pouncing to prey, Ye Yaodong's eyes instantly lit up.
His judgment wasn't wrong!
"Fish school!" Ye Fu was overjoyed, "Didn't expect to run so far away, almost missed it."
"Dad, you prepare the net, is eldest brother and second brother's boat following?"
"Have have... the other boat didn't follow."
"Hmm."
Still mullet school, just this time looked like a bit small? Those fish that kept boiling and jumping, seemed to be only three fingers wide?
He stopped the boat, walked over to help pull.
"This net so small?"
Ye Fu also saw, "Is not comparable to the few nets trawled just now, this net seems all only three fingers wide."
"Yeah, this net is all so small, similar to the smallest in the previous few nets, no big one."
"Maybe not the same wave, the previous wave don't know where swam to, no wonder ran out so far only then saw."
"Should be, care about it, catch first."
Anyway can sell for money.
The Ye Yaopeng brothers on the boat next door were also overjoyed, "Fortunately followed."
"Yeah, didn't expect to run so far and still can have."
"Definitely Dad's experience is rich."
"Possible, just this time, the size seems a bit small, definitely not the same wave as before."
"Hmm, day before yesterday sky almost dark, anxious to return, no way, yesterday also didn't search everywhere, pity."
"Yeah, thought just that moment, didn't expect they still jumped everywhere."
"So still Dad's experience is richer."
"Dad after all age is a bit older, also was a boat worker, knows a lot, has experience..."
Two brothers chatted while pulling the net.
This wave also didn't last long, also just caught two nets and gone.
"Doing what plane? Can't it be a bit longer? Only two times and gone." Ye Yaodong was a bit depressed, finding them was quite laborious, actually two times and gone.
"Sigh, wait and see, anyway time is still early, wait a while."
Looking at the harvest not small, they continued to search and chase, Ye Yaopeng's boat also followed, they felt Ye Fu's experience was rich, following definitely wouldn't be wrong.
Damn, really let them find again.
"Feels like treasure hunting!"
"Fast fast, Dongzi drive faster, can't be arrived and gone."
"Crow mouth..."
But crow mouth is the most spiritual...
This time, when they arrived, just happened to be gone.
Ye Fu couldn't help but slap his mouth several times, "Really is crow mouth."
"Forget it, late one step, continue to search, remember to say something good."
"Oh, who knows so spiritual? Said and hit, look, hey... those seabirds flew there, northwest direction...! Drive there..."
"Hmm..." His eyesight was stronger than his father, where still need to remind.
Until chased three waves, caught 200 more jin, only then Ye Yaodong reluctantly gave up, sun almost set, they still have to collect longline fishing gear, collect only then can go home.
An afternoon they were all searching for mullet school, followed them to shoot a gun, change a cannon, harvest also quite considerable, collected 400 more jin.
Mullet caught on longline fishing gear also quite a lot, today just mullet, they sold almost 60 yuan, still have other fish cargo, also almost 80 yuan, today considered came right.
After tasting sweetness, father and son planned to be active in this sea area for the next few days.
Just right can avoid wind, and can earn more money. ===== CHAPTER 374 =====
