281 Seafood Dinner
At 10 o'clock in the morning, the sun rose, and the fiery red sun shone on the water, bringing a hint of warmth. The temperature on the surface of the sea increased, causing a large number of fish to float up.
The salvage boats advanced at high speed, cutting waves off the coast of Somalia, and moving northeastward; nine fishing boats lined up side by side on the sea surface, maintaining a straight line.
It was hard for other crew members to lock the fish so quickly. In just two hours, only 70 kilometers away from the port, the fish were discovered?
"Each ship is keeping speed and ready to cast a net!"
Ling Zhengjun sat in the cab, his eyes kept traveling back and forth between the sea on the front window and the sonar screen, staring at the sea of fishes that were getting closer and closer, and told him to prepare to get off the net.
This fish school is very large, has a high density, and is generally small in size. It is obviously a sardine, migrating westward at a very high speed. At least 100,000 fish or hundreds of tons are gathered in the range of 500x20x300 meters!
"It seems that it should be herring." Yana and other little black boys discussed and studied sonar data, and they all agreed that it should be herring, and herring must be the main one.
Herring is an important economic fish; its fish population is unparalleled in density. It can be said that it is the largest fish in the world, with a very huge number!
It is good at adjusting light, so that the fish can smoothly enter various water layers of different depths, thereby obtaining a variety of food systems and achieving high-speed reproduction.
The interruption of fishing in Somalia in recent years has caused the number of these fish to grow wildly, and the density is amazing! Herrings are swimming in dense groups, which is quite spectacular and dense.
Of course, it is invisible to the naked eye. These fish like cold water with water temperatures below 10°, so they appear in Somalia with the abundant currents of food.
The little black boys stared at the sonar monitor, and Mayor Zayev was also very devoted, looking at the simulated image seriously, as if he could understand it. Yana reminded:
"The distance is 2,800 meters, the fish have not dispersed yet!"
"Estimated 120,000 pieces/270 tons."
"It should be herring, typical sardines."
The intelligent sonar detection system can accurately calculate various detection data, digital/analog/intelligent display related data, which Xiao Heizi has learned before.
"My God! This fish is not small."
"Of course it's not small, it should be said to be very big!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Ling Zhengjun issued an order to the fleet again: check the nets, and immediately threw the fishing nets after hearing the order, and continued to disperse and accelerate forward.
Ten ships are side by side, two hundred meters apart, and the large trawl can be closely coordinated, with a fishing depth of 200 meters. The U-shaped net bag separates and binds the fish, and can catch about 60%.
If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a great harvest!
Although herring is not expensive, the market for sea fish is quite good, and it is hundreds of tons! It fills half of the fishing boat warehouse at one time, and the beginning is very good.
Ling Zhengjun is very cautious. Success or failure depends on himself. He must be careful. The distance between the net cannot be far, otherwise the fishing school may be scared away and the fishing net cannot be stretched too close.
It is most suitable for 1000-1200 meters. You should also pay attention to the movement of the fish. If you tend to disperse, arrange to go down the net in advance, but generally not.
According to the living habits of sardines, they will gather in a group when encountering threats, confusing large predators; the engine noise is scared by about 1,000m.
The little black boys were in the cab, operating the electric winch and sonar detection system, excited and ready to throw the fishing net at the stern of the boat, and the net bag of more than ten cubic meters.
“The distance is now 1300 meters!”
“Distance 1200 meters”
"Please take care of all ships and start dropping fishing nets!"
Ling Zhengjun gave the order, the crew of the fishing boat who was fed with chicken blood began to act, and replied "received", then advanced for maximum horsepower and threw the net at a speed of 25 knots.
The meaning of a section is - 1 nautical mile/hour, and the equivalent kilometers of a sea mile is 1.852 and 1.852 km/hour, which is a section of the speed, which is usually used for maritime counting.
The 25th knot is about 46km/h. The net is released at such a high speed and can be dispersed quickly. It can reach the fish sea area in two minutes, which is quite a test of the reaction.
The speed of the ten ships was slightly different, but the overall speed was still neatly advanced. Ten white waves were drawn on the shimmering sea surface, and all the trawls were scattered into the water.
"Snap forward! The fish are about to disperse!"
Yana saw the fish on the sonar screen and began to move slowly towards the periphery, with obvious rhythm of running! Remind everyone to pay attention to adjusting the depth, covering 40-150 meters.
Ling Zhengjun, Zayev, Xiao Yue, and Xiao Heizai were all staring at each other, looking forward to gathering with Yu**; only Li Wei and Ling Yao couple ran to the stern of the boat to wait for the harvest.
Fortunately, they were lucky, and the herrings had not fully reacted, and the fishing net had arrived! The sound of the engine scared them so much that they ran around and took the initiative to get into the net.
10 fishing nets intercepted the 2,000-meter-long/200-meter-deep fish sea area, caught up with the herring school at high speed, and continued to drag and pull the net at full speed ahead, and the engine buzzed.
It is obvious that the speed of the fishing boat was lowered by the fishing net by at least three knots, and the harvest was definitely quite large. The salvage boat must be at most, and it should not be less than fifty tons.
"Closing the Internet! Closing the Internet!"
Ling Zhengjun breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and ordered, notifying the fishing boat to start closing the net, and the remaining fish fled. The fleet dragged forward for five kilometers, and there were no fish that had missed the net.
"Allah is here, there are too many net fish!"
"uk, damn, the winch can't be pulled."
"We also have several tons on the ship!" In the radio communication channel, the black uncles were all blown up, and they were in surprise and kept yelling, and the atmosphere was quite lively.
For them, it was impossible to have such a good harvest before scattered fishing! It is unheard of that, harvesting ten tons of sardines at one time is simply unimaginable~
The reason why this time broke the record was because the teamwork was better, and the intensive collection of networks intercepted and successfully intercepted 55-60% of the fish in this big fish. Hei Niuer Yena was estimated to have a total of 120 tons and a salvage ship of 50 tons.
Other fishing boats have 4-10 tons, with an average of eight tons. Some fishing boats have insufficient power and have tried their best to get them up. They have packed sardines in one net.
"It seems that I'm lucky and have a good start!" Xiao Yue said with a happy smile. There are hundreds of tons on a network, and the wholesale price is about 200,000 US dollars, so the profit efficiency is not low.
"The profit of ocean fishing is indeed high." Somalia has rich fishery resources and there are no large fishing companies. Thanks to pirates scaring away the fishing boats, Li Wei and others are cheap.
Zayev, Li Wei, Ling Yao, and the little black boys all ran to the stern deck, watching the net bag slowly pulled up from the sea by a winch, which was more than ten cubic meters in size!
The robotic arm of the stern winch extends up to a height of 20 meters to lift 50t of sardines. It is absolutely spectacular. There is a large piece of black and white inside the net bag, mainly sardines.
Chapter completed!
