After failing the college entrance examination, I relied on fishing to reach the top of my life

Chapter 37 Catching 85 large yellow croakers



After placing the row of hooks.

Su Mo began to wait patiently in a mood full of anticipation.

During this period, he told Jiang Wanqing about the discovery of the giant yellow croaker. As a girl who grew up by the sea, Jiang Wanqing knew what this meant and became excited for a while.

This wait is half an hour.

When the time was almost up, Su Mo rubbed his hands excitedly and immediately started to pull the hook.

Just after pulling the first branch line, he exclaimed: "Wow, is this going to get off to a good start!"

Judging from the strength of the feedback on the branch line, the fish in this hook must not be small, but I don’t know if it is a large yellow croaker.

With anticipation, Su Mo quickly pulled the first row of hooks out of the sea.

But as soon as he saw the fish hanging on the hook, he was disappointed.

It turned out that the fish on the first hook was not the large yellow croaker he expected, but a sea bass.

This sea bass is not small. If it were in the past, Su Mo would be very happy, but now he is waiting for the big yellow croaker to take the bait, and he doesn't like a sea bass at all.

In order to save the row of hooks, Su Mo asked Jiang Wanqing to carefully remove the row of hooks and threw the fish into the water tank.

Then, one row of hooks was pulled up one after another.

Although the fish rate was still very high, what made Su Mo speechless was that the basket of hooks was filled with bream, sea bass, and sea carp.

He didn't even catch a single big yellow croaker.

Su Mo was a little worried, fearing that the big yellow croakers had escaped, so he hurried to pull the second basket of hooks.

As the second basket of hooks was gradually pulled out of the water, Su Mo's heart finally dropped.

Because on this basket of hooks, a large yellow croaker finally appeared.

Wait until all the hooks in this basket are pulled out.

Su Mo caught more than 160 fish in total, and the fish rate is still very high.

Among them, large yellow croakers accounted for less than two-tenths, about twenty or thirty.

Although there were not many, Su Mo felt happy when he saw these golden fish.

It's all money!

However, Su Mo was not satisfied with this. After all, he had seen nearly 100 large yellow croakers at the bottom of the sea before. He had only caught less than [-] of them. How could he stop there?

Fortunately, he had the foresight and did not cut the fishing line directly, otherwise there would be no hook to arrange at this time, and he would be caught blind.

Then, Su Mo and Jiang Wanqing first put the large yellow croaker they had just caught in a cool place and covered it with a wet towel. This is because once the large yellow croaker leaves the sea water, it will die quickly. If it is not kept fresh properly, it will deteriorate. .

After finishing this, Su Mo didn't take a break and immediately started the second round of two baskets of hooks.

more than an hour later.

Su Mo successfully pulled up the second round of row hooks.

This time, he only caught more than half of the fish from the previous round.

Among them, the number of large yellow croakers was far less than in the first round, with less than twenty.

In this regard, Su Mo was not disappointed.

Because this is a normal situation, he has long known that the effect of the bait box is limited. After the first round of catching, there have been many fewer fish nearby.

After two rounds of hooking, Su Mo caught a total of about 50 large yellow croakers.

But he is still not satisfied with this quantity. Who can guarantee that he will encounter a school of large yellow croaker next time?

Even though it was already noon and his stomach was already growling, he still resisted his hunger and continued the third round of rowing hooks.

After another period of waiting.

Su Mo pulled up the third round of hooks.

This time, the fish rate continued to drop, and only a dozen large yellow croakers were caught.

But Su Mo still didn't feel tired. He just let Jiang Wanqing eat the food he brought to satisfy his hunger. He only drank a few sips of water and continued to work with enthusiasm.

Not to mention catching more than ten large yellow croakers.

Even if he could only catch one, he would continue to take the bait!

After all, a small yellow croaker you catch can be sold for hundreds, and a large one can be sold for thousands or even tens of thousands. If you catch one more, you can make more money.

Why not?

So, next time.

Su Mo worked tirelessly for several more rounds of row hooks.

As the hooks were pulled up and lowered round after round, the number of large yellow croakers he caught became less and less.

By the time of the last round of hooking, there was not even a single large yellow croaker left.

In this regard, Su Mo also understood that the previous group of large yellow croakers might have gone yo-yo.

Then he went directly into the sea to explore and confirmed his suspicion.

The school of large yellow croaker in the dense seaweed has long since disappeared.

Su Mo also accepted this calmly.

Fish are not stupid, their companions are getting fewer and fewer, and there will be ghosts if they don't run away.

After returning to the fishing boat, Su Mo began to count the trophies. After a whole day of hard work, he caught a total of 85 large yellow croakers this time.

Among them, there were 18 fish weighing more than four kilograms, and there was even a king fish weighing nearly eight kilograms.

Just these few can be sold for hundreds of thousands.

Coupled with the remaining smaller yellow croakers, Su Mo's income from today's trip will be at least several hundred thousand!

It's a fortune!

By this time, the sun was almost setting.

The two left the dock early in the morning and have been busy on the vast sea all day.

Only then did Su Mo feel exhausted, and Jiang Wanqing's eyelids had already begun to fight.

Su Mo wanted to rest very much, but when he thought that it was still more than two hours away from the coast, it would be dark when he returned to the dock.

Moreover, he had to rush to Qinan Port to sell fish, otherwise one night would be enough for these precious large yellow croakers to go bad.

Therefore, although Su Mo was hungry and exhausted, he still mustered up his energy and started the fishing boat and began to return.

......

After more than two hours of sailing, Su Mo finally arrived at the dock of Qinan Port before dark.

By this time, Jiang Wanqing had already fallen asleep leaning on him.

But Su Mo was much more awake now after experiencing the sea breeze. He even took the time to send Zhang Biao a text message on the road, telling him to send a fresh food truck to the dock.

When Zhang Biao saw Su Mo say this, he also guessed that he must have gotten something good, and immediately said that he would arrive soon.

......

At Qinan Port Pier, Li Dadan and a group of fishmongers were sitting on the ground next to his transport truck.

At this time they were playing cards boredly.

These fishmongers have joined Qianyuan with him and work for Zhang Biao.

Su Mo didn't come all day today, so they only collected some ordinary catches. According to the other people's wishes, everyone might as well go back to their homes, but Li Dadan asked them to wait a little longer.

At this time, several seafood merchants working for the Gu family came over.

The leader immediately said: "Li DaDa, your nose is very good."

Li Bingdao, who was playing cards, glanced at him and thought they were here to cause trouble again, so he said coldly: "What do you mean?"

The seafood merchant chuckled, pointed at himself, and said, "Stop pretending, if you have the skills, you might as well beg me!"

Li DaDa immediately rolled his eyes: "Get out!"

At this time, a fishing boat more than 20 meters long was slowly docking.

The seafood merchant pointed at himself and said proudly: "If I give you another chance, maybe I will be merciful and sell you some of my catch."

Li DaDa frowned and realized that things were not that simple.
