Chapter 139 Bird Matters
The weather on the sea this season is really hard to say. I still look at the sun when I leave the port, but when it comes to noon, God pulled down his face. When the Corrugation found a better anchor point, it started to drizzle in the sky, and some small ice slags were sandwiched in the rain.
Although the weather was not good, it did not affect the good atmosphere on the Corrugated. It was not until three hours before the deck was stopped to the end of the boat and the rod was removed. Two big fish of about 700 pounds were placed on the deck, and they were very plump. The price was estimated to be at least 20,000 yuan per person.
The headlights on the top of the boat have been turned on, and the deck is brightly shining on the deck. Qi Yiming, wearing a black skin, is dealing with the newly dragged fishing catch. Qi Yiming is not much elegant left now. If he first sees it, he will definitely think he is an old fisherman. Looking at his current dress, there is a baseball cap stuck on his head and a bluefin tuna embroidered with it. There is no small stool under his butt. He squats directly on the deck, one of which opened the cut fish belly, and the other hand grabbed the fish intestines and the like and pulled it out. There is also a spot of fish blood on his face and body, and there is a smile on his face and a cheerful whistle.
Bei Hai was watching the crew on the deck at the door of the cockpit, while watching, twisting his body and dancing. Matt was sitting next to the bait box, humming untuned fishing songs in a low voice, throwing bait into the sea.
The three people on the Corrugated were very happy. Needless to say, Matt and Qi Yiming, Bei Hai also found a great fishing spot to dance. The fish under the boat were very good, although there were no big fish that cost a thousand pounds. However, the overall level was very good. I almost saw a small fish of four or five hundred pounds. Although the weight was slightly worse, just looking at the round waist like this bucket, you could tell the quality of the fish.
Piqiu is now stretching his head to Qi Yiming, looking at the fish internal organs that have been made. Piqiu is only interested in cod liver and fish hearts, and doesn't look at intestines and other things. She comes over and waits for Qi Yiming to bring delicious food into her mouth.
"Captain, how do you arrange the night of Zhiye?" Matt looked at Bei Hai and said.
Today, I can't sleep like I used to. I don't want to give up such a good fish sea. Moreover, the fishing season is about to end, so I have to make these last few transactions no matter how I want.
"You go to bed first, but if a fish takes the bait, I will call you up," said Bei Hai.
"Okay!" Matt and Qi Yiming said in unison after hearing this.
With this arrangement, waiting for the two of them to get out of the cabin to rest, next to the bait box where Bei Hai sat alone, he continued to start feeding the bait in the light rain.
Matt and Qi Yiming did not sleep as well this night as before. They were shouted twice by Bei Hai, because the reason was very simple: a fish bit the hook.
"Ah~ Ha!" Qi Yiming yawned, raised his hand and forked two pieces of bait, and threw it into the sea casually. It was already bright on the sea. Although it was because there was no sun on the rainy day, looking at a fishing boat a little further away, you could only see blurry shadows.
Today's storm is a little bigger than the sky. The shaking of the corrugated number is naturally more beneficial. However, this kind of shaking is no longer a big deal for Qi Yiming, and even his yawn has not affected him.
"Thank you!" Qi Yiming looked at Matt handing a cup of coffee in front of him, took it and said thank you, and took a sip.
The coffee is very hot, but at this time, I took a small mouthful of it on the sea. I felt a warm current slid into my stomach along the esophagus, making people breathe comfortably.
"I will return to Hong Kong if I have two more," said Qi Yiming.
Matt held his iron cup and looked at Qi Yiming and said, "What's wrong? Are you tired?"
"How come I didn't sleep well! But it's enough to have this, I can resist it!" After saying that, Qi Yiming raised the stainless steel cup in his hand to Matt.
Matt laughed twice after hearing this, "The situation last night was a normal life for a fisherman to go out to sea. It is a luxury to sleep four or five hours a day at the sea. You can sleep for four or five hours without being interrupted. In this case, one hand is enough during the fishing season!"
Listening to Matt's words, Qi Yiming was happy. Now Qi Yiming didn't understand anything when he first came. Comrade Lao Qi still made a few friends in Gegest, and now he can be said to be clear about the fisherman's life. He was not bothered by listening to Matt's words like he was teaching him a lesson.
Because Qi Yiming knew that although there was something to teach him in his words, the most important thing was that the old man was thinking about his bitterness and sweetness in his heart, and sighed at the little days now. There were very few people who were not good at this.
"Now there are more and more birds." Qi Yiming turned his head and found that on the sea near the Corrugated Sea, there were more than 20 sea birds floating on the sea, and their bodies were rising and falling with the waves. From time to time, one or two people stretched their heads downwards and pierced their entire body under the water. After almost ten seconds, they floated up again.
"No! These guys are eating our bait!" Matt said after observing for a few seconds.
"No, they are still a little far away from us. Even if they lay down the bait, they are five or six meters underwater." Qi Yiming stretched out his head and looked at the fishing bait he had just dropped. These seabirds leaned around the boat, but were not too close to Qi Yiming's bait point, so Qi Yiming didn't care much. Now, after hearing Matt said this, he naturally needs to check it out.
Matt said without thinking: "The wind and waves are a little bit bigger today. When the bait goes down, it won't sink so quickly. It will be carried by the waves for a while. The sea water under our boat will roll up a little..."
As an old fisherman, Matt looked at it and learned about the general situation. The bait thrown by Qi Yiming did not sink directly to the bottom of the sea, nor did he form any bait chain. Because of today's wind direction or weather and ocean currents, most of the thrown baits were rolled to the side where the seabirds gathered.
Qi Yiming stretched his head and looked at it for a while and then understood. To put it bluntly, the big reason was that the bait on his side was cut too small, and they were all bait fish of similar size. Other tuna boats were cut in half or just one and threw one down. The corrugated one was divided into three pieces, and the bait that was divided into three fast was naturally much lighter. Moreover, the density of the sea was also high, and the condition was completely normal.
"Use a bait feeder?" Qi Yiming immediately thought of a solution.
"That's all!" Ma Te lowered his head and said, "Put the rope longer and put it to five meters!"
After hearing this, Qi Yiming immediately said, "Yes. I understand."
After saying that, he was about to turn around, and almost stepped on the front fin of the ball. I don’t know when this guy came over. He imitated Matt and Qi Yiming to stick his head out of the side of the boat and looked under the water.
"Go to stay somewhere else, don't you see we're busy?" Qi Yiming said, pushing the ball.
Piqiu let out a "Oh Woo" sound from his mouth, moved his fat body and continued to pretend to look.
For Matt and Qi Yiming, the balls are now like pets kept on a boat. Although this guy is a little bigger and catches the weight of an adult, fortunately, he has a small appetite and will not secretly take a bite on the fish catch. Of course, the most important thing is that the balls are so cute that they can't bear to drive them away.
Besides, having a ball on the boat, there is also a lot of fun when you are bored, right?
Qi Yiming found a bait feeder, forked about a dozen pieces of fish into the can of the bait feeder, and then put the bait feeder in the sea with his mouth flat, waiting for the rope on his hand to come to an end, then suddenly lifted it up, then paused his arm, waited for five or six seconds before quickly lifting the bait feeder up.
Matt stretched his head and saw that there was no piece of bait left in the bait thrower jar. He couldn't help but give Qi Yiming a thumbs up and praise him: "The technique is great!"
Qi Yiming, who received the praise, just smiled and continued to use the bait to feed the bait.
But soon the two of them couldn't laugh anymore. Because there were more and more sea fishing around the Corrugation, and it was getting closer and closer. Looking around, it was not a problem with dozens of them, but with hundreds of them!
These birds were crying on the sea surface, and some sea birds were also preparing to circle and land. In front of them, they were still five or six meters away from the Corrugated Hull. Now the dense spots of these sea birds are less than two meters away from the side of the ship, and some birds are within reach of Matt and Qi Yiming.
"Get out! You thieves!" Matt stretched out his arm and waved his face.
This action scared two or three birds. The two or three spread their wings and flapped a few times. After screaming twice, they immediately pierced into the sea again. While waiting for it, one of them was holding a piece of bait that Qi Yiming had just dropped off in his mouth. He swallowed it in front of Matt as if provocatively.
Matt's face was not angry at this time. Instead, he frowned and muttered: "These birds can actually dive so deep!"
In Matt's remark, these birds usually only see two or three meters of food, but they won't be too deep when they are trapped in the sea. If they are even deeper, they will not have the idea of this. Now they let Qi Yiming put it more than five meters, but these birds can still crawl down to eat. Do these birds want to eat in one bite today?
Matt was a little confused, but he couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't figure it out. Since this happened, he had to find a way to solve it. If the bait was not fed to birds, why would he catch fish? Besides, Matt was a fisherman and not a professor in science and technology, he had to think clearly about everything.
Now Matt understands only one thing: if birds eat bait, the fish will not be eaten. If the fish cannot be eaten, there will be no fish to be caught. If you can’t catch the fish, you will have no money. It’s that simple!
Matt quickly lifted a basin and knocked the bottom of the basin. At the beginning, this trick was quite useful, but after knocking twice, the seabirds adapted and couldn't help at all.
If the Americans sometimes protect it so well, these seabirds are not afraid of people at all. They look lazy, five or six people, making Matt feel so angry that he hates him now.
After resentment, the bird will eventually be driven away. Then Matt made all kinds of tricks and made out all the noises. Finally, he even used the firecrackers and set them off for a long time.
Firecrackers are prepared as long as they are fishing boats to prevent such things from happening.
The result was that the seabirds had no feelings, and Bei Hai, who was sleeping in the cabin, couldn't stand it anymore.
No wonder, Bei Hai only slept for two or three hours, and Matt Qi Yiming's two goods beat gongs and drums, and finally fired cannons. Who can bear it? The cabin is not a luxurious soundproof room, and it can't be heard outside. There is no soundproofing or soundproofing in the cabin.
"Do you still let me sleep?" Bei Hai asked while yawning.
