master of the deep

Chapter 22 Giant moray eel
The coastline of Huaguo stretches for more than 18000 kilometers, and there are many species of sea fish. There are more than 70 kinds of sea fish, but not all sea fish are suitable for fishing. The main targets are yellow croaker, perch, cod, sea catfish, hairtail, grouper, eel, and black sea bream. wait.

Seawater fish are more ferocious than freshwater fish, and they will bite the bait when they see it, so it is easier to harvest than freshwater fishing.Moreover, the ocean area is vast, and the fishing targets include warm water, warm water and cold water fish; the water body is deep, and there are various fish in the upper, middle and lower waters, so fishing is more exciting and fun.

"Okay, we haven't tried fishing in the sea yet, and today is just the time to try it." Wang Biao, who wanted to try everything, naturally his eyes lit up when he heard it.

"Sea fishing is a good idea. I wonder if you will have good luck tonight?" Zhou Xiaolin had already participated in sea fishing with his father, and knew a little about sea fishing, so he was also very interested after hearing about it.

"It's all right anyway, let's all try it out, if you can catch a few big fish, take it back and make it into dried fish." The other crew members also laughed. They have been running on the sea for a long time and are familiar with sea fishing. Of course, there are good and bad crafts.

"Sea fishing is different from fishing in rivers and lakes, because the natural environment of the ocean and freshwater is quite different. First of all, the ocean has warm and cold currents. Many sea fish have the habit of swimming with seasonal currents, and seasonal currents will also Bring a lot of organic matter and plankton, especially where the cold and warm currents meet, it is the best place for sea fish to forage.

Furthermore, the ocean has ebb and flow of tides.If you are fishing on the coast, rising tides will bring a large amount of organic matter and fish to the shore, which is more conducive to fishing; after low tide, fishing is generally not suitable.

In addition, the sea is relatively calm in the morning and evening, suitable for fishing.It is easy to have strong winds and waves during the day on the sea, which may even endanger the safety of anglers, so it is not suitable for fishing.Of course, if the moonlight is too bright at night, many fish are resistant to light and are not suitable for sea fishing. The moonlight tonight is the best. "As expected of his rich experience, Uncle De acted as a guide for Lin Fan and others.

"I don't believe it anymore. This time I must catch a big fish and show you." Chen Chaoguo threw the fishing line and thought angrily. He felt that he couldn't explain what was going on this time, but He was not very lucky, as if others were laughing at him when they looked at him, so there was a anger hidden in his heart, and he wanted to prove himself by fishing.

However, everyone didn't notice Chen Chaoguo's strangeness, because he was only acquainted with Zhang Zhide, and it was the first time to work with Li Hu and Hao Gang. Everyone thought he was a little shy and not very talkative. Not many people communicate with him.

Out of interest in sea fishing, everyone cast their fishing lines on the side of the boat and began to wait quietly for the sea fish to take the bait. There is no one who does not hope that he can catch a big fish so that he can show off in front of everyone.

But having said that, fishing in the sea is easier than fishing in Danyan, because the fish in the sea are relatively wild and fierce, and they will bite on the bait when they see it, and the bite will not loosen.

Therefore, if you don’t care about the type and size of fish, sea fishing is definitely more rewarding than freshwater fishing.Of course, you may also encounter some sea fish with sharp teeth, which may directly bite off your fishing line.

"My fish is moving, it's moving." Wang Biao cried out suddenly, grabbed the fishing rod and pulled it violently, a fish weighing four or five catties jumped out of the water, with a faint purple light shining on its body.

"Be careful, don't touch it." Just when Wang Biao threw the fish on the deck and was about to catch it excitedly, Zhang Zhide suddenly stopped him loudly.

"Uncle De, what's the matter? Isn't this fish too small?" Wang Biao asked puzzledly, even Lin Fan didn't understand.

"Idiot, that's an electric ray. If you don't want to get an electric shock, don't touch its body. Just wrap it in a net and throw it back into the sea." Zhou Xiaolin recognized the fish after taking a look.

Lin Fan stepped forward and took a look. This electric ray had a flat back and belly, and the head and chest were together.The tail is thick and stick-shaped, like a fan.The electric ray lives on the bottom of the sea, and a pair of small eyes grow in the middle of the front of the back side.On both sides of the ventral surface of the cephalothorax, there is a kidney-shaped honeycomb generator arranged in a hexagonal column.

"Did you see this? It's called the "electric plate" column, which is where the electricity is generated on the electric ray. There are 2000 electric plate columns on the electric ray, and there are 200 million "electric plates". These electric plates are filled with glue The shape of the substance can act as an insulation." Uncle De said, pointing to a place on the electric ray.

"Yes, there are nerve endings distributed on the surface of each "electric plate" on the ray. One side is the negative electrode and the other side is the positive electrode. The direction of the current is from the positive electrode to the negative electrode, that is, from the back of the ray. It flows to the ventral surface. Under the action of nerve impulses, these two dischargers can turn the nerve energy into electrical energy and release electricity, and the current emitted by a large electric ray is enough to knock down an adult." Zhou Xiaolin added beside, Wang Biao was so scared that he didn't dare to touch it.

It was Uncle De who helped throw this electric ray back into the sea, because people hardly eat electric rays, and its economic value is not great, but its discharge principle is more enlightening to scientists, and it was invented by studying it. It has a generator and an armed speedboat that can launch a magnetic therapy storm attack.

"Hey, mine was hooked too. This fish is not small, please come and help me." At this time, Zhou Xiaolin also called out. It turned out that his coil was being stretched rapidly, and a fish appeared on the surface of the sea in the distance. A white line, obviously hooked a big guy.

"This guy is not small, please come and help him. Let it slip for a while, don't be too busy to take up the thread, and take it back later." Uncle De knew that Zhou Xiaolin had hooked a big guy at a glance, although he didn't know what it was, He also hurried over to help, and called Li Hu and Chen Chaoguo to come together.

Lin Fan didn't help, but just watched from the sidelines, and saw the four people in a hurry, putting out the line for a while, taking up the line for a while, competing with the big guy in the sea, and it took half an hour to get it up. A striped fish two or three meters long.

"Is this hairtail?" Wang Biao watched from the side, very envious of Zhou Xiaolin who could catch such a big fish.

"No, this is a moray eel. It's just that such a big giant moray eel is very rare, and I'm afraid it's a hundred or two hundred catties." Zhang Zhide shook his head and said.

Moray eels, distributed in tropical and subtropical oceans, live in shallow water, live among rocks and hide in crevices.The difference from other eels is that the gill openings are small and round, and generally have no pectoral fins.Skin thick, smooth, without scales.It has a large mouth and sharp teeth, which are suitable for catching and biting prey, and can also seriously injure its natural enemies, including humans.

Although the moray eel struggled in the water for half an hour and was pulled up by the net, it didn't stop. It kept jumping on the deck, looking very fierce, and one or two people couldn't hold it.

"Be careful, everyone. This is a reticulate eel. Its two jaws have strong teeth, with 3 rows of teeth on each side. The first row of teeth on the lower jaw does not tilt outward; the vomer teeth have 3 rows, and the central row has 1 cusps. head. Don’t be bitten by it, or you may cut off your fingers and hands.” Zhang Zhide reminded everyone.

"Help hang it up, I want to take a photo with it." Zhou Xiaolin smiled happily.

Everyone hung the giant moray eel upside down, and sealed its mouth with a net. After measuring, it was 150 meters tall and weighed [-] jin, which is amazing.

"I want to take a group photo too." Wang Biao took out his mobile phone and asked Lin Fan to take a photo for him after seeing Zhou Xiaolin going to take a group photo.

"It's hard to come across such a giant moray eel. Everyone who wants to take a group photo should come and take a group photo." Even Uncle De said the same, and other people put down their fishing rods and came to take a group photo.

At this time, Zhou Xiaolin had already uploaded the photo of himself and the giant moray eel to his WeChat and Moments, and marked it: "Look, everyone, this is the giant moray eel I caught with my own hands."

Immediately, people froze to watch, some suspected that he was from PS, some asked him where he was, and some asked him to take a few more photos and upload them for a look. Zhou Xiaolin satisfied everyone one by one, showing the surrounding environment After it was photographed, everyone believed it.

"Third brother, where are you?" At this moment, the boss Sun Mingren, who had been out of contact for a while, suddenly appeared.

"Boss, you've finally shown up. I'm at sea with my second child and my fourth child. By the way, my fourth child bought a fishing boat, and my second child and I went out to sea with him. We are fishing in the sea. It's so cool. Hey, Boss, you are the only one we brothers need now." Zhou Xiaolin hurriedly chatted privately with Sun Mingren.

"Oh, I have to take part in a training during this time, and I just have a rest today, otherwise I wouldn't be able to know your situation. The fourth brother is really amazing, he even bought a fishing boat, and I will ask him to treat you later." Sun Mingren smiled. .

"That is necessary. Do you know? Boss, the fourth brother can make a fortune this time, and it is estimated that it will be no problem to buy two fishing boats when we go back."

"Well, when school starts, I have to kill him, the rich man. Well, I only have this little time, so I won't tell them. Say hello to them for me." Sun Mingren chatted a few words, as if It's over when something happens.

"Hey, the second and the fourth, the boss was bubbling just now." Zhou Xiaolin ran over and told Wang Biao and Lin Fan what happened just now, making them regret for a while.

"But it doesn't matter. Didn't the boss say that he wants you to treat me when the school starts? It's already August [-]th, and the school will start in only [-] days. Soon we brothers will be able to get together." Wang Biao was quite nervous. , so he ran back to fishing soon, and he wanted to get a bigger fishing rod.

In the ensuing half an hour or so, everyone gained something. All kinds of cuttlefish, squid, hairtail, barracuda, sardine, amphioxus, squid were caught, and even some rare sunfish, zebrafish, arowana, The clownfish are all caught.
