A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village

Chapter 195: fishing expert



(Second!)

  Due to the relatively large waves, Minano Shuichi and others rowed for more than ten minutes before they came to the edge of this fishing boat. Following the rope ladder, he and Ishida Yu climbed onto the fishing boat.

   For the first time on such a tall fishing boat, they all looked around, wanting to see how advanced the fishing machinery around this fishing boat was. Well, it\'s an occupational disease!

After    came up, Minano Shuichi took the initiative to say hello to these Brandon people.

   "You speak English?" Brandon was slightly surprised.

   "We will meet." Minamino Shuichi smiled.

   "Okay, I\'ll send the telegram in English when the time comes." Brandon laughed. He had a headache before, but now it\'s gone.

"sure!"

"Everyone is busy, so I will briefly tell you about the next fishing operation plan." Brandon swallowed and continued: "Our company plans to conduct a three-month fishing operation in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Then transfer to the North Pacific to fish for three months. We have been fishing in the waters around here for the past three months. You know that?"

   "I know, Carol told me." Minamino Hide nodded to make it clear.

"Well, the central Pacific Ocean is so big, and we don\'t fish in one place. Anyway, we go wherever there are a lot of fish. But the fishing is scattered. But we should not be too far away from each other during the scattered fishing. It is far away. In case the supply of logistics fuel will be delayed at that time. We stipulate that the distance between the two parties should not exceed 300 nautical miles! After the fishing is full, return to the transport ship and let the transport ship return to the fishing port. There are currently two transport ships. It is 2000 tons and will be waiting for us at the center of our fishing range. We may move to the next place after a week or two of fishing here. Anyway, I will let you know in advance. We must gather according to time, and we must not be left behind.”

"OK, no problem."

"This is the map. At present, we are fishing within a radius of 300 nautical miles around this sea area. This is where the transport ship is docked, right in the center. You can fish anywhere within a radius of 300 nautical miles. You can give it to you when the time comes. It depends on your ability." Brandon took a map to Minano Shuichi.

  Minano Shuichi took it and looked at it and said ok!

"If you are in a hurry for fuel or logistics, you can come to the supply ship to get it! The supply ship and the transport ship stay here together. By the way, if the sailors or you want to write a letter to your family, you can also hand it over to the transport ship. Someone to help send it back. But the first time you send it back, you need one of the transport ships to be full."

   "Okay, thank you." Nanye Xiu said.

   It was almost impossible for him to contact Miyamoto Tamiko so many times before, because he did not have a transport ship for fishing at that time. Well now, I can still write to her during the half-year fishing.

   It took about half an hour to negotiate, and that\'s about it.

   Just as Minami was about to go back, that George asked Minami: "Mannano-kun, I heard that you caught 5,000 tons of tuna in just 2 months. Is it true?"

   "Yes, they were all sold to your company, don\'t you know?" Minamino Shuichi turned his head and said softly.

   "I\'m not in Hokkaido, I don\'t know. Did you find a lot of tuna schools near the Pacific equator last time?" As soon as George\'s words came out, those few people listened with curiosity. Apparently they also wanted to know.

   However, this kind of thing is taboo in the industry. Does such a cherished market tell you that fat water will flow into the field of outsiders?

   "A lot!" Minami Hideyoshi said one sentence, and there was nothing else to say. Anyway, everyone else knows where they are fishing, so they may go fishing next time. But without the help of the system, it is impossible to catch as much tuna as they catch!

   After returning to my fishing boat, I will prepare, and the fishing will be scattered from tomorrow.

   On the second day, except for two transport ships and a few supply ships docked here, other fishing boats left here one after another to find waters suitable for catching fish.

   "Boss, which direction are we going?" The old man Kimura asked him when he was leaving.

   "Let\'s go north. Either way is the same. If you don\'t see a school of fish, you have to change direction." Minami Shuichi pointed to the north.

  Just like that, the four fishing boats set off!

   Fishing, Minami Shuuichi never looks at the direction, he just needs to look at the direction of the fish indicated by the system. When he came here yesterday, he found that there were more fish in the northern sea area. Then he went to the north to go fishing.

   The fleet was sailing, and an hour passed, and so far no fish was found to be fishable. The sailors were as bored as ever. At this stage, everyone is reluctant to speak. Because I don\'t know what to say!

   "Minano-kun, the Elizabeth fishing team is catching tuna this time, do we only catch tuna?" Ami Inoue asked.

   "No, I fish whatever I encounter anyway. Except for sardines and herring, which are cheap fish. All others are caught. Anyway, there will be transport ships to transport them back." Minano Shuichi thought for a while and then said. Although tuna is the most expensive, salmon, cod and other fish are also good.

   Minano Shuichi did this for his own system upgrade! If he has been fishing for tuna in the past six months, then his next upgrade is estimated to take a long time. This time, the fishing continued for half a year, and there were transport ships to help transport. He just catches as much as he encounters! It is best to upgrade the system again in half a year. When the system reaches level 4, let\'s see what kind of abilities it will give you.

   Now he just can\'t wait to catch 3 million fish all at once, so that the system can be upgraded at once!

  The central part of the Pacific Ocean is a wide-area basin, the most stable area of ​​crustal structure, and the seawater depth is generally about 4570 meters. To the east of 150°W is the East Pacific Basin, and to the south of the line from the Central American Isthmus through the Cocos Ridge to the Galapagos Islands is the Peru-Chile Basin and the Southeast Pacific Basin. Further south across the southeastern Pacific Rise is the Pacific-Antarctic Basin.

  The central Pacific is also rich in fishery resources, rich in herring, cod, salmon, mackerel, trout, bonito, sardines, tuna, flounder and other fish. In addition, sea animals (seals, walruses, sea bears, sea otters, whales, etc.) hunting and crabbing also play an important role.

  In later generations, with the large number of fish being caught, a grand fishing trend has been set off in the Pacific crab industry.

   "There should be more deep-sea fish here!" Minami Shuichi looked at the Pacific Ocean and thought to himself.

   "Ding dong... In the north direction, a school of bonito fish was found 10 nautical miles away from the host. The coordinates of the fish school were 167.2 longitude and 51.3 latitude. The number of fish schools was 1803!"

   "Hey, I finally met a school of fish so close, let\'s start!" Minami Shuuichi listened to the system\'s prompt sound, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He wondered if he was a fishing expert now?

   Minamino Shuichi pretended to take out the map, and then checked the coordinates. After knowing where the fish were, he said to the old man Kimura, "I think this is a good place. Let\'s go and have a look. I plan to place longline fishing here!"

"it is good."

   There are two types of tuna fishing. One is to place longlines and wait for passing tuna to bite. The other is when you come across a school of tuna and catch it directly with a trawl or purse seine.

  Now Shuichi Minano said he was going to this place for longline fishing, and others didn\'t doubt anything.

   The fishing boat started heading towards the fish school, and Minami Shuuichi switched his vision to see what the fish school was doing over there.

   Soon he saw that school of bonito! They are staying in that sea area at this time, and they should not leave in the short term.

   He knew that bonito is also a type of tuna. Its body is spindle-shaped, the cross section is almost circular, the head is slightly larger, the caudal stalk is thin and strong, and the caudal fin is forked. Except for the scaly breastplate and lateral line, the entire body is smooth and without scales. No swim bladder. The back is dark blue, the underside and belly are silvery white. Body length up to 111 cm. The maximum weight can reach 34.5 kg.

  This tuna is a small and medium-sized tuna among many tuna, about the same size as albacore tuna. This fish is very popular in island countries and is one of the local favorite fish. It is an important food fish and is mostly used as sashimi (sashimi) and fish floss.

   After arriving at the destination, just as Ishida Yu and others were about to set the longline fishing, they finally found a school of bonito a few meters deep!

   "It\'s a bonito, a school of bonito!" Ishida Yu exclaimed happily.

   "I saw it too. I thought I was going to put a longline and wait a long time for the fish to be hooked. It seems that I don\'t need it now. Just use the trawler to kill them." Tanimura Ueno\'s breath was quick.

   "Notify the boss and prepare to kill them with the Falcon trawler."

  Under the command of Shuichi Minamino, this 500-ton trawler finally opened its first maiden-girl show!

   On the top of the boat, two lookout sailors stared closely at the movement of the fish with their binoculars and said, "Due north to west 6°! About 200 meters!"

   "Due north by west 6°, about 200 meters!"

   Soon the above told the direction of the old Kimura who was driving the fishing boat. The old man Kimura was very sophisticated and drove towards the direction of the fish according to this news. The Falcon trawler\'s 400-meter-long trawler had been thrown into the water at this point.

   "Accelerate!"

   The diesel engine of the trawler has a lot of horsepower, which is a must, the trawler operation is to be fast! Be strong! Otherwise, how can I drag a huge fishing net without the strength to pull it and affect the speed?

   "Hurry up and stretch the robotic arm to the maximum, and make sure to maximize the trawl entrance!" Minano Shuichi shouted loudly.
