Sea-hunting system: I became rich by fishing at sea

Chapter 113 Ocean Fishing 5

The fish at the bottom of the sea were obviously bigger than any fish she had caught before, both in strength and size.

After walking for less than 10 minutes, Chen Zhiyao felt her arms were a little sore.

Just as I was about to call my grandfather to help me fish, I heard an excited cry:

"Hahaha, this thing is really strong, it must be thirty or forty kilograms."

The fishing rod in Grandpa Chen's hand was bent in an exaggerated manner, and the muscle lines on his arms were clearly visible. It was obvious that a big fish was hooked.

And not only Grandpa Chen, but everyone else on the boat also had fish hooked. Judging from the excited expressions on everyone's faces, they must be big fish and were all busy fishing.

Without help, Chen Zhiyao could only increase the unloading force of the fishing rod and let the big fish at the bottom of the sea go on its own and move around to consume its energy.

After the fishing reel became loose, the big guys in the sea became more unscrupulous and quickly shuttled towards the sea ahead.

"Squeak..."

The reel spun very quickly, and seven or eight meters of line came out in an instant.

After a few minutes, there was a commotion not far away. Judging from the laughter, someone must have caught a big fish.

Chen Zhiyao changed to a posture that allowed her to exert more force, then turned around to watch the fun.

It turned out that Lao Wang caught a tuna. Although it was only a yellowfin tuna weighing more than 20 kilograms, it was exciting enough.

Especially Chen Zhiyao, when she saw this big guy, she immediately guessed that the large black shadows under the sea should be tuna.

She didn't expect to encounter a school of tuna. This overwhelming wealth finally came to her.

There are six types of tuna: bluefin tuna, masu tuna, bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna, albacore tuna and bonito.

The prices of these types of tuna vary greatly, with bluefin tuna being the most expensive.

The yellowfin tuna that Lao Wang just caught was not as good, and tuna of this size was still a small one, only about 20 to 30 yuan per pound.

In fact, it is not as valuable as a pomfret.

This is no joke. Tuna is priced by size, and the price varies greatly depending on the size.

Tuna weighing less than 100 kilograms usually costs only a few dozen yuan per kilogram, but if it weighs over kilograms, the price will double.

Thinking that there might be tuna below, Chen Zhiyao felt her heart beat faster and the blood in her body boiled.

After resting for a while, she felt that she was in very good condition and could fight this big guy for 300 rounds without any problem.

Chen Zhiyao fought with the big fish for about half an hour and finally consumed most of its energy.

While the guy was exhausted, she immediately reeled in the line frantically.

During this period, this guy struggled from time to time. Although there were some minor twists and turns in the process, in the end, Chen Zhiyao, who was cheating, was superior.

Five minutes later, a yellowfin tuna was pulled out of the water by Chen Zhiyao, who was sweating profusely.

yellowfin tuna

Looking down at the tuna still struggling desperately on the surface of the water, Chen Zhiyao's face flushed with excitement, and her voice unconsciously rose:

"It's so big. This guy must be more than 30 kilograms. Grandpa, how much does this big yellowfin tuna cost?"

The old man, who was originally playing with the fish, now stared at the big fish with envy.

"Your fish is a yellowfin tuna. Although it looks big, it is considered an underage tuna. It costs about 30 yuan per pound at the purchasing station."

"That's not bad. This big one is worth at least a thousand dollars."

The first time she went deep-sea fishing, she caught a tuna weighing more than 30 kilograms. Chen Zhiyao was filled with joy and pride.

The fish was too big and Chen Zhiyao couldn't get it up by herself. Seeing this, Chen Feng quickly used the small crane on the boat to help her pull the fish up.

Before she had time to take a picture, Chen Feng rushed to weigh the big fish.

Soon, there was an excited voice:

"Tangtang, your tuna weighs 33 kilograms."

This is the biggest fish Chen Zhiyao has caught so far. She quickly stood aside and took a few photos.

However, we didn't dare delay too long. In order to keep the meat fresh, the fish had to be frozen immediately after it was taken out of the water.

However, before freezing, the tuna needs to be processed first.

The tuna not only needs to be bled, but the internal organs must also be removed before it can be stored in the freezer.

It was Chen Zhiyao’s first time fishing for tuna. Although she knew the process, she had only a vague idea of ​​how to do it specifically, so she could only ask for help from her eldest cousin who was standing beside her.

Chen Feng’s previous fishing boats were all near the coast, and this was actually his first time seeing a live tuna.

But he was in this business, so he made special inquiries before going out to sea and quickly dealt with this big guy.

Then he carried the big creature to the freezer with an envious look on his face.

The fishing is good today, why don’t he go fishing too?

Chen Zhiyao had just returned to her fishing spot when Grandpa Chen next to her also caught a yellowfin tuna.

Compared with the one she just caught, this fish is a little smaller, and looks to be only about 30 or kilograms, almost kilograms.

However, this was the first time that the old man caught the legendary tuna. He was so excited that he quickly asked Chen Zhiyao to come over and help scoop the fish.

The grandfather and grandson worked together and soon caught the tuna, which was exhausted from walking.

29 jin, almost 6 jin. Grandpa Chen slapped his thigh, his face full of regret:

"It would be great if it was 30 jin. 29 and 30 jin sound similar, but there is a difference in grade. One jin of fish costs several yuan more."

Chen Zhiyao suddenly had an idea and gave her grandfather a suggestion with a smile:

"It's still early to go back. There are still a lot of squids in the bucket. Let's feed it more so that it can grow more meat in the next two days."

"Young people have flexible brains. Even if they can't gain weight, they can gain weight by eating two more squids."

The old man smiled and thought this was a good idea. But then he remembered that the tuna needed to be bled and couldn't be kept alive.

The big bosses not far away also caught tuna one after another, and Chen Feng was very busy at this time.

The grandfather and grandson had to handle Grandpa Chen’s tuna themselves.

At this time, Chen Zhiyao finally remembered how stupid her previous proposal was.

The fish that everyone caught were all yellowfin tuna, and they were all roughly the same size, so every tuna sent to the freezer had a tag affixed to its head.

This way everyone’s catch won’t be mixed up.

Although there are not many tunas, this guy is very strong and it takes a very long time to fish.

More than an hour passed, and the school of fish below was still there.

At this time, Chen Zhiyao was walking the second big guy.

Through the X-ray glasses, we can see that the shape of this black shadow is similar to the previous one, and its movement trajectory is also similar. It is most likely a tuna.

This guy was even stronger than the previous one. After a struggle, Chen Zhiyao almost couldn't stand.

But the stronger the fish, the more excited she became.

This guy is so strong and looks quite big, could it be a bluefin tuna?

Bluefin tuna

Bluefin tuna is the largest among tunas and is also the most expensive. If you could catch one, it would probably be worth several thousand dollars.

Feeling the strong pull from the fishing rod, Chen Zhiyao was so excited that her palms were sweating and her heart was pounding.
