Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

"Sardines are sardines. They're easy to pick up."

Seeing everyone's devastated expressions, Fu Wan clapped her hands and comforted them. Honestly, this is the worst catch we've had so far, so it's normal for everyone to be feeling down.

But that's how it is when you go fishing at sea. It's impossible for every catch in your net to be 100% good.

This kind of cheap stuff is actually the norm.

Fu Haishun, Fu Daniu and others were not children either, and they accepted the reality as quickly as possible.

Fu Mancang and Fu Jinshui hurriedly took water guns to prepare to wash the trawl.

It doesn’t matter if this net doesn’t yield a good harvest, they still have time and can cast a few more nets.

Ye Lin rummaged through the mountain of fish and found more than ten jin of squid in addition to more than ten sergeants.

These sergeants are big and small, the big ones weigh five or six pounds, and the small ones weigh about one pound.

Put the processed cobia into the fish basket, and shovel the remaining sardines directly into the fish basket with a shovel.

Sardines don't need to be sorted at all, so this net became the fastest time for everyone to sort the fish after getting on the boat.

"Come on, come on, push the trawl down again. I don't believe we'll have the same luck in the next one!"

Boss Fu shouted, and Fu Haishun, Ye Lin and others hurried forward.

Fu Wan also went up to lend a hand. She planned to change her clothes and go into the water after the trawl net was pushed down.

Who would have thought that at this moment, Dong Haiyang's urgent shouts suddenly came from the door of the wheelhouse.

"Brother Fu, Boss, come over here and take a look. Look at the sea!"

Dong Haiyang shouted several times in a row. Fu Wan had no time to respond and immediately looked towards the sea.

At this time, there was a white cloud blocking the sun, so the sea was not so dazzling when everyone looked at it.

The azure sea was covered with rippling waves. Flocks of seabirds gathered behind the boat and on the surface of the water, occasionally swooping down to hunt.

Wait, seabirds?

Fu Wan reacted instantly and hurried to the side of the boat.

She squinted her eyes and saw through the sea water that shadows were swimming quickly in the water.

She suddenly understood.

No wonder, no wonder this net is full of sardines.

Because there are schools of sardines!

Because the fish have driven the sardines here!

And these fish are one of their favorite fish, yellowfin tuna!

Tuna swims too fast, so trawling is simply not feasible. The fastest and most convenient way to catch them is probably to use a purse seine.

To purse seine, two boats are required!

Thinking of this, Fu Wan quickly searched for the shadows of other ships.

Fortunately, Fu Ming had been following them, and at this time they were only five or six hundred meters away from the Riding the Wind and Waves.

"Dad, hurry up and get the seine!"

Fu Wan first shouted to Boss Fu, then quickly ran to the main control room.

Dong Haiyang was getting anxious at this time. When he saw Fu Wan push open the door of the wheelhouse and come in, he was about to speak when Fu Wan picked up the radio equipment and called Fu Ming.

"Brother, are you there? Come to us as quickly as possible. There are fish here. We can use two boats together and use a seine net!"

"Okay, I'll come over now!"

At this time, Fu Ming had actually also noticed the unusually large number of seabirds on the sea. Hearing Fu Wan's voice, he hurriedly steered the ship as fast as he could towards the Riding the Wind and Waves.

After talking to Fu Ming, Fu Wan hurriedly notified Chen Balian and Fu Liang.

Although their two ships were a bit far apart, if they rushed over as quickly as possible, they might be able to get some soup.

Seeing Fu Wan finished her work, Dong Haiyang spoke hurriedly.

"Boss, what kind of fish are in the water?"

"Didn't you see it?"

Fu Wan was surprised. She thought Dong Haiyang was calling her so anxiously because he saw a school of tuna in the water.

Dong Haiyang shook his head. "I just saw the seabirds over there. Look at that dark mass. Based on my experience, there must be a school of fish."

"It's tuna."

"What, golden gun?!"

Dong Haiyang could hardly believe his ears. He quickly supported his hands on the control panel and looked at the sea. Unfortunately, his eyesight was not as good as Fu Wan's, and he could only see the waves rising.

But he believed that Fu Wan would not bluff him.

"Boss, is it bluefin or yellowfin?"

"Yellow fin, there should be quite a lot."

Fu Wan glanced at the Yangfan Qihang which was getting closer and closer, and hurriedly gave instructions to Dong Haiyang.

"Uncle Dong, please slow down the boat, my brother is coming.

I plan to join them in the purse seine, otherwise the tuna will swim too fast for the trawl net to catch up."

Moreover, these tuna were very close to the water surface, far above the range of the trawl net.

Dong Haiyang nodded in agreement when he heard that. Fu Wan just returned to the deck and found that everyone was standing by the boat and screaming.

Perhaps because the boat disturbed the sardine school, many tunas have begun to jump out of the water. Those figures, like cannonballs, made Ye Lin and others excited.

I wanted to jump into the water and catch it.

Money, it’s all money!

But if they went into the water, they estimated that they could not even catch up with one tenth of the tuna's speed.

Fu Wan clapped her hands, and everyone looked over. Ye Lin shouted excitedly.

"Awan, please speak up. With so much tuna, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, everyone has a mission."

Fu Wan raised her hand and said, "Brother Alin, Brother Haishun, Brother Daniu, and my father, when the Yangfan Qihang approaches, lower the seine."

"Brother Mancang and Jinshui, as well as Fang Min and Fu Qing, prepare the fish baskets and knives to collect the tuna later!"

"it is good!"

Everyone agreed in unison, and the "Set Sail" was approaching.

Fu Shi, Fu Dahai and others stood on the deck. After the seine was thrown over, they hurriedly began to hang it up.

Unlike trawl nets and radar nets, purse seine requires two ships to operate together.

The principle of the purse seine is actually very simple. Two boats hold the two ends of the net and move forward at a basically consistent speed. After surrounding the target school of fish, they gradually narrow the range of the fish's activities and finally tighten the rope at the bottom of the net to achieve the purpose of fishing.

There was no seine on the Yangfanqihang, and the seine on the Chengfengpolang was also prepared on a whim by Fu Wan after she bought the ship.

There was no other way. The Riding the Wind and Waves had a special warehouse. Fu Wan had not thought at first that the purse seine would come in handy, and she had not expected that the first time it was used would be to deal with a school of tuna.

At this time, the tuna school had sensed the danger and swam forward quickly.

A large group of sardines were fleeing frantically in front, and the seabirds in the sky seized the opportunity and rushed into the water.

The scene was unprecedentedly lively. During a break in the roundup, Fu Wan even ran to get out her camera and recorded this extremely memorable moment.

When Fu Liang and Chen Balian arrived, the encirclement between Chengfengpolang and Yangfanqihang had shrunk a lot, and many tunas were still trying to escape from the net.

When Ye Lin and his companions saw the Return with a Full Load approaching, they waved to them excitedly.

"Hey, cast the net quickly, cast the net quickly!"

There are still many tunas hunting in the sea right now. If you throw the hand net accurately, you can pull some tuna up!
