Chapter 172 Don't fight with tuna from now on?
This time, Jiang Luoluo seized the opportunity. After all, the fish had no energy to lie flat on the water, so it couldn't hit her. She was an exercise idiot.
But obviously, she is not.
Jiang Luoluo aimed deliberately, and the speargun pierced the fish's head, almost killing him with one blow.
Pulling the fish up, Chu Mingcheng had time to look at his own yellowfin tuna.
The blood has been drained, and the internal organs have been taken out.
He weighed the fish with a crane, and the fish still weighed one hundred and ninety-three catties after bloodletting and removing the internal organs. Obviously, the previous weight was indeed more than two hundred catties.
Standing up to be about the same height as him, it is a veritable giant.
Jiang Luoluo's fish is smaller, about 1.5 meters long. The fish was bled to remove the internal organs. The fish weighed 144 catties, which is not bad.
After catching two big golden spears, Chu Mingcheng wanted to take a rest, so he came to Wei Jiaguo to see what was going on.
After passing by, he found that the fish had been pulled to the surface of the water, the distance was less than ten meters, and he could pull it up later.
Wei Jiaguo has the help of a boatman, so he can hold on.
Seeing him coming, he ordered: "Ah Cheng, go and get the spear gun, you come to stab the fish."
"I'll come? Okay." Chu Mingcheng thought he would come by himself, but he didn't expect to leave it to himself. He personally has no objection to doing a small favor.
Go and get the speargun, the fish has been pulled close.
Chu Mingcheng looked at the right time, and the spear gun pierced out like a javelin, directly plunging into the fish.
Bright red blood immediately dyed the water surface, and the tail of the tuna flicked like a small electric motor, splashing sea water everywhere.
But soon it lost its vitality, and the boatman tied the tail of the fish with a rope and pulled it up.
This tuna is about the same size as the one in Chuming City, and it is estimated to weigh nearly two hundred catties.
Yellowfin tuna can generally grow to about two meters long and weigh more than two hundred catties.
But if you are lucky, you may also encounter a three-meter yellow fin weighing more than 400 catties.
But the probability of encountering such a large yellow fin is almost the same as that of encountering a blue fin, both of which belong to the very rare category.
After catching three fish, several people went to the cockpit to check the fish finder.
No accident, there are no traces of big fish on it.
If you don’t encounter fish schools, this is the normal situation. Basically, after the tuna is hooked in a short period of time, their companions have left before they have caught the tuna.
"Grandfather, should we go find the fish now?" Chu Mingcheng asked.
Wei Jiaguo looked at the time, and it was already 1:30 pm when they arrived here. After they finished catching the tuna and bloodletted them, it was already 4 pm.
After another hour and a half, you can have dinner and prepare for night fishing.
"Don't worry, take a rest, put down the fishing light at night, maybe you can attract a group of tunas." Wei Jiaguo finished speaking, started the fishing boat and drove for half an hour, and came to the vicinity of an isolated reef.
Even if there is no tuna here at night, you can still catch deep-sea fish, or go fishing for some grouper snapper near the isolated reef, which is a very good fishing spot.
Perhaps this tuna almost broke Wei Jiaguo's waist in the afternoon. After dinner, he said that he was going to take a nap, and then went back to the bedroom with his waist supported.
The sky was not completely dark, Chu Mingcheng took a deck chair and lay on the flying bridge to watch the sunset.
In fact, I have already immersed my mind in the aquatic product illustration book, because when I caught tuna today, I opened another data panel.
【Tuna (Level 1)】
【Current Experience: (1/10)】
【Experience acquisition conditions: If you hunt tuna over 50 catties, you can get some experience points; if you hunt tuna below 50 catties, you will deduct some experience points. 】
【Scan: You can check the weight of tuna】
【Usable Tools: Fishing Tackle (Kesui), Speargun】
【Reproductive Growth (Level 1): All slow-growing wild giant fish within the range bound by the host can increase their reproduction speed, growth speed, and viability by 10%. And 1% of migratory fish will stay in the bound sea area and will not go to other sea areas. 】
【Binding range: Huaxia sea area and adjacent high seas (the sea area of the country to which the host belongs, will be automatically changed according to the change of the host’s nationality)】
【Affecting fish: the most economically valuable fish that can grow to more than 200 catties】
【Fish Gathering (Level 1): There is a 1% chance to attract nearby tunas to actively gather in the waters where the host is located. 】
【Deliciousness: +1% (Fish with more fat content and better meat quality will be attracted first)】
【Body size: +1% (Fish with larger size among the same kind of fish will be attracted first)】
"What?" Chu Mingcheng, who was lying down, sat up after seeing the growth.
Hunting tuna can actually increase the reproduction and growth speed of all slow-growing giant fish in the domestic sea area, as well as the very important survival ability.
This means that as long as Chu Mingcheng works hard to hunt tuna, the resources of these giant fish in the country will get better and better. Doesn’t this make him want to eat tuna in the future?
This is obviously after he has a big boat, tuna will become the main target fish.
The growth time of 100-jin tuna is 10 years, and now it is only 10%. If the level increases in the future, the growth speed will become faster and faster?
If the highest level is 100, then the speed will be increased ten times, and a tuna can grow to 100 catties in a year?
However, the maximum level of the Aquatic Illustrated Book is currently limited to level 50, and a growth rate of 500% is already impressive.
The only pity is that tuna fishing only affects giant fish, and it can only be affected when the maximum weight grows to more than 200 catties.
But Chu Mingcheng always felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't think of it.
In the end, he really didn't find the problem, so he could only give up temporarily. After all, it's a golden finger, so there won't be too many loopholes!
But the recovery of fish resources is a great thing for Huaxia.
There is a large population in the country, and more fish resources can reduce some employment pressure, and we are not afraid of extinction of fish.
The second is export, and then you can earn some foreign exchange.
As for the conditions for gaining data panel experience, Chu Mingcheng felt a little regretful, but also relieved.
No matter how many tuna he hunts, he can't compare with others.
If you can catch some small ones, at least you can speed up the upgrade speed of some data panels.
What's relieved is that he doesn't like hunting juvenile fish himself. The Aquatic Illustrated Book gives this restriction, which makes him no longer need to worry about doing things he doesn't want to do in order to upgrade.
It's a pity that you can only hunt tuna by fishing or hunting. Not to mention the seine, you can't even use the longline, which undoubtedly greatly reduces the upgrade speed.
But what does this change of nationality mean?
Who do you look down on!
Lie down again. At present, five kinds of aquatic products that he has not hunted are needed to upgrade the aquatic product guide to the second level. It seems that even if he does not encounter tuna or sailfish tomorrow, he will still have to go diving in the reef coral area.
Go hunt some aquatic creatures that you haven't encountered before, and upgrade the aquatic illustrated book to level two.
After lying down for a while, Jiang Luoluo brought two glasses of fruit juice and put them on the table beside her. Then she didn't sit on the stool, but just sat on his lap and lay down.
Chu Mingcheng hugged her quickly, feeling the softness of her body, he was helpless.
This girlfriend has a special time just like a fish, as cruel as she is at night, she will be as clingy as she is during the day.
"Ah Cheng, how much can we sell our two golden guns for?"
Jiang Luoluo lay on top of him and moved a few times to find a comfortable position.
As for asking about the price of tuna, it’s just a random topic.
"I'm not sure, the price shouldn't be too high, maybe only a few tens or hundreds of catties! After all, it's just yellowfin tuna, which is worse than other tuna."
The unit price of yellowfin tuna under 100 catties is only 50, which is not high.
However, the bigger the tuna, the tastier it is basically. It mainly depends on whether the fat content is high, so the price of large fish fluctuates.
But for yellowfin tuna, no matter how high the unit price is, it is difficult to exceed one hundred.
"So cheap? Doesn't it mean that tuna is very expensive? In Japanese food stores, even if it is not bluefin, a few pieces of meat cost tens or hundreds of dollars."
"It can't be calculated in this way. There are good parts and bad parts of tuna. If the big belly and middle belly are sold separately, the price will naturally be much higher, but if we sell all the fish, the price will naturally not be so high."
"So it is!"
Jiang Luoluo didn't ask any more questions after she knew about it. She herself chose to go fishing because of Chu Mingcheng.
I don’t really like the entertainment of fishing, it’s just that the people I like are here.
Enjoying the time between the two quietly, drinking a sip of juice from time to time is very pleasant.
But time passed quickly, and the sky turned dark in the blink of an eye.
Chu Mingcheng patted Jiang Luoluo on the shoulder: "Let's go, let's put down the fish luring lamp first."
"Hmm~"
Then the two of them came to the deck and put all the fishing lights on the boat into the water to attract nearby phototaxis aquatic organisms.
Chu Mingcheng took out the electric reels and installed them on the side of the boat first. There is a high probability of fishing deep sea fish at night.
If tuna really came, Jiang Luoluo would use the electric winch.
After a while, the tuna was not found, but the two found small squids with their heads sticking out of the water.
"Ah Cheng, there are so many squids, why don't we catch some squids tomorrow?"
"Okay, and squid is a very good live bait, so let's get more."
Chu Mingcheng went to turn on the searchlight of the boat and shine it on the water, and the squids ran towards the bright place by themselves.
Neither of them needed to fish, and there were quite a few of them with a dip net.
After waiting for a short while, the squid will continue to gather, which is very convenient and trouble-free to pick up.
The number of squids in Chuming City increased rapidly on the data panel, reaching level two after fishing a few times.
The two of them didn't know how much they caught, anyway, the buckets were two full, and the squid inside were also taken away by the boatman for another storage.
Squid can live for a few days, but the live shrimp bought before must be used up tonight, and if it is not used tomorrow, it will probably be a dead shrimp.
Just as the two were about to start fishing, the surface of the water suddenly exploded, and a tuna jumped out of the water and swallowed the small squid gathered under the light in one gulp.
Chu Mingcheng said pleasantly: "Luoluo, a school of fish is coming, you hurry up and call Grandpa, I'll go see if there are any big fish on the fish finder."
"Okay!" Jiang Luoluo hurried to call someone.
He also went to the cab to observe, and found that the fish lure light did attract a school of tuna fish, with many thick lines on it.
Unbearable, he immediately went back to the bedroom and changed into a diving suit.
"Acheng, are you going fishing and hunting?" Jiang Luoluo came to call Wei Jiaguo, who happened to be here, and was a little surprised to see Chu Mingcheng change into a diving suit. She thought she would go fishing tonight.
"The efficiency of fishing is too low. I guess I will have a good harvest at night." I have been here for a whole day, and the wooden spear gun has not been moved. If I don't seize the opportunity tonight, I don't know if there will be another opportunity tomorrow.
"Then be careful." Jiang Luoluo was a little worried.
"Well, I will pay attention to safety."
Chu Mingcheng returned to the deck, fully equipped with a headlamp on his forehead.
If there is no diving buddy to turn on the lights at night, it is actually not very easy to shoot, so the tuna hunting scene tonight can only be skipped regrettably.
After a short while, Wei Jiaguo also came to the deck. He looked at Chu Mingcheng's equipment and said, "Be careful, the open sea is no better than the near sea. If there are sharks nearby, don't be greedy later, you must first Come up."
Chu Mingcheng nodded, expressing his understanding.
In fact, if there are sharks, there is no need to be afraid. When the time comes, just shoot a fish, the shark will attack the injured fish first, and the person will naturally escape.
Secondly, when there are schools of fish, sharks will not specifically attack humans, after all, humans are not in their diet.
Chu Mingcheng launched from the boarding port at the back of the boat, then swam to the side of the boat, took the wooden spear gun from Jiang Luoluo, and started hunting fish.
Taking a deep breath, he plunged into the water.
Then glance back and forth, first using the lights on the head to observe the surrounding situation.
Unexpectedly, there are tunas all around, densely packed with hundreds of them, almost forming a tuna tornado storm, which is really an exaggeration.
However, the distribution of tuna was also clearly observed in Chuming City underwater.
Same as general fish schools, they also have small fish in the upper layer and big fish in the middle and lower layers.
But this is just a special situation caused by being lured by the fish-lure lamp tonight.
Tuna are usually grouped together according to age and body size. Big fish and small fish will not stay together.
Chu Mingcheng began to dive into the water, and the tuna at the bottom immediately dispersed, but they were not very far away from him, even only five or six meters away.
This distance fishing and hunting is really too simple, after all, the target of tuna is too big.
Chu Mingcheng took a good look at it, and saw a yellowfin tuna that was definitely over two meters in size, with a round belly and a bit of a wound on its mouth.
The number of yellowfin tuna is the largest among all tunas. What they attracted tonight is also a school of yellowfin tuna. He did not find other tunas.
Chu Mingcheng loaded the wooden gun and began to aim at the injured yellow fin.
"Boom~"
"Puff~"
The fish arrow successfully hit the spine of the yellow fin and penetrated deeply.
The piercing force of the fish arrow shot by the wooden gun is indeed much stronger, but it is still unable to pierce the thick body of the tuna, perhaps because it is blocked by the spine.
But this position is very good. Successfully hitting the spine will make this yellow fin unable to swim, and then there will be a lot of bleeding.
Under the light of Chuming City, black liquid flowed out from the wound of this yellow fin all the time. This is its blood, but the vision in seawater is black.
Letting go of the speargun to let it float, Chu Mingcheng pulled the fishing line and swam over.
All the tuna around were scattered, and then continued to gather nearby, and did not leave because a companion here was attacked.
The yellow fin that was hit could barely swim, and the spine was interrupted so that it could not control its body.
Chu Mingcheng quickly swam to the front, and then came to its back, grabbed its pectoral fin with his left hand, took out a diving dagger with his right hand and stabbed it directly in the forehead, trying to kill the yellow fin as soon as possible.
This yellow fin didn't move much at first, but when the forehead was pierced, the desire to survive broke out again, and the body even started to swing again.
But the range is not large, and he can't break free from Chu Mingcheng.
After a while, it died because its forehead was pierced. Chu Mingcheng held the fish's pectoral fins with both hands and brought it to the surface of the water.
"Luo Luo, throw me the rope of the winch." Chu Mingcheng surfaced and spat out the breathing tube, and said in the surprised eyes of several people.
Wei Jiaguo looked at his watch, and only two minutes and twenty seconds had passed.
Jiang Luoluo was already used to his hunting skills, so he agreed to throw the rope down.
Chu Mingcheng had already swam to the small door at the stern with the fish, tied the tuna tail with a rope, and asked her to turn on the winch to pull the fish up.
He does not need to deal with the rest. The boatman will process the blood and viscera of the tuna and put them in the refrigerated cabin.
Back in the water, Chu Mingcheng continued to look for the big golden gun over two meters.
The spine was not broken this time, causing the fish to struggle very hard.
When he hit the tuna in Chu Mingcheng, he lost sight of the tuna almost instantly, and the fishing line was released at an extremely fast speed.
He pulled the fishing line, and the whole body was taken away by the fish, and he jumped five or six meters in a flash.
At this moment, the fish exploded with great force, and it took a lot of strength for Chu Mingcheng to stabilize his body and fight against the fish.
This time, there was no way to pull the fish back immediately. He could only put some line and hold it to prevent the fish from running away. Bring the speargun."
"Okay!" Jiang Luoluo didn't ask why, but went in and ran to get the spear gun.
"You help me load the gun, I can't take the fish with me."
"Uh-huh."
She also knew how to load the speargun. After finishing it, when she handed it down, the direction of the arrow was slanted towards the water surface, and there was no silly arrow towards Chu Mingcheng.
Taking the speargun, he dived again to find the injured yellowfin tuna.
When fishing, this kind of big fish can pull people away, but in fact, the situation of fishing and hunting will be different according to the position of the hit.
As long as it hits the nail on the head, the tuna won't go very far.
Chu Mingcheng's arrow just now was not fatal, but it still hurt him very badly.
So it's just that the strength of the initial outbreak is stronger, and it's not so difficult to deal with it later.
This will cause the fish to struggle in the nearby waters while he keeps pulling on the line.
When Chu Mingcheng swam to the water where the fish stayed, he found that it was already lying on its side in the water and did not move much.
In order not to continue struggling later, he swam over and aimed at the fish's head, and shot another arrow.
At close range, the head of this yellowfin tuna was pierced immediately. After it struggled for a while before dying, it soon became silent, and Chu Mingcheng held it and swam to the surface of the water.
It took a little longer for the second fish to be pulled onto the boat, a total of twelve minutes.
"Ah Cheng, with your efficiency, you can fill Grandpa's refrigerated compartment in one night, right?"
In the afternoon, Jiang Luoluo just caught a tuna, and it only weighed about 150 catties. At that time, she not only took great effort to pull it, but also spent more than an hour with the help of Chu Mingcheng, so now she already knows how to catch big fish difficulty.
Seeing how easily Chu Mingcheng could connect with two big fish of more than two meters, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the efficiency of fishing and hunting.
"I was lucky to meet a lot of fish, and I hit the nail on the head twice, otherwise even fishing and hunting would not be so easy, and it would take a lot of energy." Chu Mingcheng explained with a smile.
It takes a lot of strength and physical strength to bring two big fish back to the surface, and this is still under the boat.
After all, when fish are injured, the strength that erupts when they struggle is also very strong. It takes a lot of strength to pull them, and the physical strength is also consumed quickly.
It is not clear how many giant cargoes weighing more than 200 catties that a fisherman and hunter can hunt at one time.
Maybe a normal hunter and fisherman will lose his strength after pulling up one, but he thinks it’s okay for him to pull a few more.
