MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 13 Brother is fishing for money!

   (Ask for a recommendation ticket! There are still 300 votes to add more, comrades!!)

  Longline fishing is the most important operation method in fishing tackle, with the widest distribution and the highest quantity and output. Basic structure: many equidistant branch lines are tied on a main line, and the ends are tied with fishing hooks and bait, and the floating and sinking devices are used to lay them on the surface, middle and bottom layer, and the main line is laid on the surface and the bottom through buoys and floats. Middle layer; equipment to control the length of the buoy line and the sinking force to sink the fishing tackle to the required water layer. Drift with the current while working. It is generally suitable for sea areas with vast fishing grounds and slow tides.

   "Remember, the first batch of 500 hooks should be placed first, and the depth of the bait should be about 10 meters. Hurry up!" Minano Shuichi ordered.

  More than 20 people were busy, but the speed naturally increased when there were more people. Minami knew that these herrings were also food for bluefin tuna. So using these herrings as bait is also suitable.

  Here we were busy preparing, and the fishing boat approached the tuna school soon. At this time, the bluefin tuna was still happily eating in the sea. Only those squid are sad, eaten by tuna.

   "Tell Kimura to slow down, the speed is 9 knots." Minami Shuichi sent a person to tell the old man Kimura.

"it is good."

   Anyone who grew up on the coast of Hokkaido knows how to use longlines and how to catch tuna!

  The direction of the longline line should be cross current or oblique current. Generally speaking, tuna likes to feed against the current. One is that the direction of the release line is perpendicular to the direction of the ocean current. This method intercepts a large section, which can provide a reference for the width of the next release. A better method is to form a "V" perpendicular to the current, which increases the chances of hooking the same fish.

   The speed of the fishing boat has slowed down, and the fishing boat has also reached the top of the fish. At this time, Shuichi Minano is also ready to place the first batch of hooks.

   "Take the hook!" Minami Shuuichi directed the people and began to take the hook.

   At the same time, Minamino Shuichi cut his vision into the sea to see how the tuna reacted. Now that everything is ready, only the east wind is left, and these tuna will not be hooked.

   If you don't take the bait, there is nothing you can do, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

   Soon, five hundred hooks, that is, five hundred herring bait, were put into the sea and floated in the sea with the rapids.

   At this point, the fishing boat has appeared above the fish.

   "Nano-kun, you are amazing! There are indeed fish here!" Tanimura Ueno said with great joy. At this time, tuna can already be seen jumping out of the sea.

   "I didn't see it, it turned out to be tuna!"

   "You read that right, bluefin tuna!" Ishida Yu widened his eyes, obviously shocked. This fish is hard to come by. I don't know how many fishing teams want to encounter it but can't encounter it.

It is a tapered and slender body with a crossed caudal fin; the color from the bottom to the side of the body is bright, the upper body is dark blue, and the fins are dark. Its biggest feature is that the body length is generally 1-3 meters. It is more than 3 meters long and weighs more than 700 kilograms. Very recognizable.

   "Wow, the one just now is so big, it looks like more than two meters long, it's an adult fish." Even a woman from Beiwan Village exclaimed.

  What is bluefin tuna? That is money!

   "If you can catch ten, no, if you can catch five, it's not a loss to go to sea this time!"

   "Boss, you are going to make a fortune." Someone started to flatter.

   At this time, some people think that Minamino Shuichi's luck is really good. It has only been less than a week since he went to sea and encountered two waves of fish. Can't believe it. Especially Minano Shuichi's confident look just now. Let everyone think that Minano Shuichi is a master at finding fish!

  "Don't get too excited, it's a problem whether these tuna are on the hook." Minano Shuichi didn't show his excitement. In the end, the key is not to be on the hook. After all, there's a school of squid here for those tuna to eat.

   Sure enough, after the bait was put down, the bluefin tuna was not noticed for the first time. They are still happily eating in the sea.

   "Okay, let's wait now, everyone is watching those fishing floats, and tell me as soon as a fish bites the hook!" Minami Shuuichi cut his vision into the bottom of the sea again. Watching the bluefin tuna move.

   Sure enough, ten minutes later, the bait that was put down finally caught the attention of these bluefin tuna. After all, compared to herring and squid, they still like to eat herring. After all, squid spraying this ink desperately will really make these bluefin tuna hate. If it weren't for the slow movement of the squid, they would be too lazy to open their mouths.

   "Bite the hook, bite the hook!" Noguchi Minami shouted loudly.

  I saw that, a few hundred meters behind, the fishing floats floating there really sank, then floated up again, and then sank again!

  "There's one over there too!" Inoue Ami said coquettishly with wide eyebrows.

   "Quick, close the tick!" Minano Shuuichi withdrew his vision from the sea and said loudly.

   "I'm coming!" Although Ishida Xiong looked silly and was not tall, only about 1.6 meters, but he was very strong. He quickly shook the hooked pulley.

   Receive here, pull over there! But the moment the bluefin tuna was hooked, the deeper it was hooked, the more it could not escape.

   "Flapping Flutter!"

   "Crash!"

The location where the    Yubuo was located had intense waves, which were all stirred up by the bluefin tuna. It was angry at this time because it was hurt. It wanted to escape, but unfortunately something caught its mouth and it couldn't escape. However, it still managed to escape.

  "This tuna is so powerful! It should be not small." Ishida's face was flushed and forcefully retracted the fishing line, proving that he was struggling now.

  "Ah~ I saw it, I saw it! It's so big, my God, it's estimated to be two meters long." Miyamoto Yuko exclaimed.

   "Come on, come on!"

   "Noguchi Minami, Tanimura Ueno, you are all ready. This tuna is so big that it is difficult for one person to get it. Get the structure ready." Minami Hideyoshi's eyes were already red. This fish is estimated to be more than 250 kilograms, which is more than 250 kilograms. It's really hard for a person to get it up. Now my brother is not catching fish, but money! If this bluefin tuna is stored in the future, don't take it away without more than 10 million RMB. Of course, it's the 1950s and the price isn't that high, but it's not cheap either!

In later generations, tuna fishing is too serious, resulting in a great reduction in the number of tuna, especially bluefin tuna, which is less than 1% of the total global tuna catch. This kind of tuna grows slowly and has a fat content. High, tastes good, and is ridiculously expensive.

   But in the current 1950s, bluefin tuna is of course not as scarce and expensive as later generations, but the price is not cheap, they are all luxury fish!
