The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded Chapter 92

Chapter 92 North Reef Shore Dive

The Chinese name of the red diamond fish is sea bream. Like the long-tailed sea bream and the multi-rake sea bream, they all belong to the snapper family. The three fish are very similar.

But in terms of size, the long-tailed sea bream is the smallest.

Like the 11-jin fish caught by Chu Mingcheng, it is a very large individual of the long-tailed sea bream.

But the sea bream and the multi-rake sea bream can grow up to more than one meter, especially the sea bream can grow to 1.27 meters.

But his line obviously exceeded the standard, not only attracted the onlookers of nearby fishing friends, but even the boat owner who had just laid down to rest was alarmed.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's the first time I've seen such a big red diamond fish in the sea for more than 20 years!"

He also didn't tell Chu Mingcheng to collect the fish, as this kind of fish would be taken away as soon as it landed, and it was impossible for them to pass through the hands of fishmongers.

"Boss, do you have this ruler? I'll measure the length of the fish, and you can take a picture of me later."

Such a big fish will definitely get lost when brought home under normal circumstances, but now the situation on the boat is special, and the fish must be kept fresh, so I can only hug it and take a commemorative photo.

Just as Chu Mingcheng finished speaking, a boatman walked over quickly and handed him a measuring tape.

This old brother is very good!

He took the tape measure, handed him his phone to take a picture, and started measuring the red diamond fish.

After the fish is out of the water, the larger the fish, the harder it is to move, especially if it is pulled up directly from deep water.

The big mouth of this red diamond fish can be opened one by one, but in fact it hardly moves after lying on the deck.

Chu Mingcheng crouched down and measured its body length safely, which was 137 cm.

The boatman took a photo of the measurement, and then another boatman moved a scale, and several people worked together to move the fish to the scale, weighing 32.9 kilograms, or 65.8 catties.

Seeing this figure, the boat owner sighed a little regretfully: "It's a bit short, the largest one currently recorded seems to be 74 catties, and the length is 145 cm."

"It's enough to catch similar fish in China, and I don't expect to break the record." Chu Mingcheng, who has made a lot of money, has nothing to regret.

The record fish mentioned by the boat owner is abroad, so the environment is different.

To be honest, Chu Mingcheng really wanted to go to foreign waters to do harm, but he didn't know if he could get a fishing license to go abroad.

Squatting next to the fish, let the boatman take a photo alone, and then looked at the effect.

This boatman's photography skills are good, and the fish is two circles bigger than him.

Then the ship owner also came to take a group photo.

He will definitely not let go of this kind of fish worthy of publicity. It is a signboard that can attract more fishing friends.

After all the photos were taken, Chu Mingcheng immediately asked for a super-large foam box, the kind used to store tuna, and asked the boatman to seal the fish and keep it in a safe place.

Afterwards, he asked the owner of the disembarkation ship how much the fish could be sold for after landing.

The boat owner pondered for a while, and said: "It depends on how much others will pay. Basically, they are auctioned directly after landing."

"I feel that yours can be worth at least 20,000 yuan. If it reaches this price, you will not lose money if you sell it."

20,000, that is, the price of 300 per catty.

Compared with the long-tailed sea bream, which is slender and beautiful with tail fins swaying like dancing sleeves, the plain-looking sea bream wins in terms of lower prices and higher yields.

That is to say, the price of sea bream is incomparable with that of long-tailed sea bream, and it is more than double the price.

The market price of chilled sea bream is about 85 to 120. The specific price depends on the region. Anyway, it must be much cheaper here in Qiongzhou.

The ship owner said 20,000, of which gimmicks and rarity accounted for a large part.

If it is sold at the market price, it is estimated to be two hundred and one catties.

But even if it was 20,000 yuan, Chu Mingcheng had already paid back his capital for this trip to sea. What he was thinking about now was whether he would take the opportunity to earn back all the money he spent after coming to Qiongzhou.

A sea bream that almost broke the record has inspired all the fishing friends around.

Originally, those who used low-power electric reels to catch small fish all rented large electric reels and hard rods from the boatman.

Not only that, the mackerel bait on the boat was also an instant bestseller.

The ship owner stood on the deck with a smile on his face for a while, and then went back to sleep leisurely with his hands behind his back.

He is not the only person in charge, there is also a deputy captain who is changing shifts with him, so he can sleep at ease.

It seemed that this sea bream had spent all of Chu Mingcheng's luck. In the next two hours, only two octopus fish weighing more than ten catties were served, that is, red sweets.

The market price of the two fish is only 1,500, which is nothing compared to the fish he caught before.

These two fish need to be bled, so they are handed over to the boatman.

Now it's nearly three o'clock at night, and the sun will come out in three hours. Chu Mingcheng replaced the ground 30 lead with a 20, and the fishhook was also replaced with a small one.

The main line will not be changed, and it will be troublesome to change it.

This time instead of using live mackerel as bait, he used Antarctic shrimp to catch small fish.

If you switch to a small one, there will be fish. The hook rate of five or six catties of deep-sea grouper, red friend, and sea bream is quite high.

After the sky turned pale, Chu Mingcheng caught a total of 13 fish.

The harvest tonight was very good, and he didn't intend to continue fishing this time. Packed up my equipment, went back to the room to wash my face, and then went to have breakfast.

The boat will arrive near the North Reef of Xisha this afternoon. You can rent a small boat to play trolling at that time, but you have to pay an additional 500 yuan per hour for the boat.

It's free diving, fishing and hunting. I don't know if it is possible. He has all the equipment and will ask in the afternoon.

At noon, Chu Mingcheng was woken up by the boatman calling everyone to have lunch.

Woke up, washed and went out, and found that the boat had arrived at Xisha North Reef.

Blue sea and blue sky is not just a movie.

The beautiful scenery of this tropical island cannot be seen in his hometown.

Take out the head-mounted camera to shoot a circle of beautiful scenery, and take a few more pictures with the mobile phone.

Looking at the photos, I found that my photography skills are not good, and the scenery is not as good as the real scenery. I will save it and buy a good camera when I have time in the future, and then learn how to take pictures.

After lunch, Chu Mingcheng approached the boatman and said that he wanted to go to sea for free diving.

As a result, he had no diving buddy and was rejected by the boat owner.

Fortunately, there is a boatman who can dive. Although it is only a one-star certificate, it is enough.

The boatman's tip is also 500 yuan per hour, Chu Mingcheng doesn't care much about this price.

As long as there are fish, the harvest from fishing and hunting is definitely more direct than fishing.

Together with the boatman, they moved their bodies on the deck. When their bodies were slightly warm, they changed into their equipment and went to the nearby shoals in a trolling boat.

The boatman is also a set of diving equipment, and he also brought an oxygen cylinder for use at critical times.

If the oxygen cylinder was opened because of Chu Mingcheng, the cost would be on him.

But he didn't care at all, he wouldn't give this opportunity.

The small boat came directly to a shallow bank, and the two disembarked.

Although the boatman was wearing a diving suit, he also wore a life jacket outside.

His job is to float on the surface of the water and pay attention to the safety of Chuming City. He will only go to the rescue if there is danger, otherwise he doesn't need to take care of anything.

Chu Mingcheng put on flippers and entered the water from the shore. The clear water quality allowed him to clearly see any movement under the water.

Xisha is not only a fishing paradise, but also a fishing and hunting paradise.
