Chapter 159 The Horror of Trawling Fishing

After specifying the route, Jian Yi Jian Er slowly put the fishing net into the sea. The bottom of the fishing net is a rectangular iron block, which quickly sank into the sea, and the fishing boat started slowly.

During this process, the fishing net slowly expands into a net shape and begins to catch various fish in the sea.

The Mermaid's trawling mainly works on the upper layer of the sea, mainly the upper layer fish such as Spanish mackerel, Liye trevally, blue round trevally, perch, and small yellow croaker.

The fishing boat is driving, and the fishing net being dragged behind is like a sky net, catching all kinds of fish and shrimp along the way.

The trawling operation consumes a lot of fishing boats, but its efficiency is the highest among all fishing, and it is also the scariest.

Standing on the fishing boat, Chu Xian could see piles of all kinds of fish in the trawl behind were surrounded by fishing nets, no matter big or small, they caught them all in one go.

That's right, it's a catch, all the fish along the way.

Trawling usually collects the net every two or three hours, but of course there are exceptions. If the fish is abundant, the net may be collected every one or two hours.

The sea area where Chu Xian was located was of average resources, and the fish were not densely populated.

Even so, as visible to the naked eye, the number of fish in the fishing net increased rapidly. For more than four hours, the entire net was already filled with all kinds of fish.

Chu Xian's fishing boat is a small boat, less than 30 meters long, and the trawl net is not very big, it can hold about five tons, and at this moment the fishing net is fully loaded.

Among them, the nets are mainly small yellow croakers, densely packed, the big ones are forty centimeters, and the small ones are only ten centimeters. There are also many common fish such as lobsters, crabs, and hairtails.

"Drag it up!" Old Hulu looked at the fishing net in the sea and said loudly.

Sword one sword two They immediately manipulated the machine and slowly pulled the fishing net onto the boat.

"My lord, our harvest is good!" Old Hulu looked excitedly at the various fish being pulled up. Although these fish were all small yellow croakers and hairtails with relatively low economic value, they were large in quantity, at least four Tons, seven or eight thousand catties of fish! "

Seven or eight thousand catties of fish, even cheap ones cost thirty to forty thousand!
The trawl net is pulled onto the boat, and there is a special tank for storing fish beside the fishing boat. As soon as the sword is released from the mouth of the fishing net, fish will fall onto the fishing boat one by one.

Chu Xian frowned slightly as he watched the various fish being released gradually.

One big downside of trawling is that 80.00% of the fish caught will die.

Because of mutual extrusion and rapid changes in water pressure in the net collection, the organs will rupture or fly off, and even if there are alive fish, they will die in a short time.

"Crack!" A crisp sound fell on the fishing boat.

Chu Xian frowned.

It was a sea turtle, half a meter in size, but it had landed motionless on the fishing boat and died of suffocation.

A strip of small fish that has not yet grown up landed on the fishing boat, a strip of sturgeon and octopus about half a meter in length.

There are even some inedible fish.

"Big fish and small fish, regardless of species, as long as they are underwater creatures, everything will be extinct wherever the trawling net passes. No wonder some countries prohibit trawling fishing. It's terrible."

Chu Xian was thinking about it. He could see a lot of posts and news about trawling fishing on the Internet.

Trawling is the most efficient fishing method out there, which is one of the reasons he bought the boat, but it is also the cruelest and most environmentally destructive form of fishing.

Large ocean-going industrial fishing boats can hold fish the size of 747 Jumbo Boeing [-]s in one net.

And under this kind of high-yield fishing boat, no matter big fish or small fish are all caught in one catch, and even some other catches are often mixed in.

For example, sharks, dolphins, sea turtles, albatrosses, these precious protected animals on the earth, the catches mixed with them every year reach millions, millions, what a terrifying number.

"It costs tens of thousands of dollars to catch a net, and most of these fish are dead, and I can't eat them myself. I won't use this method to catch fish in the future." Chu Xian thought for a while.

To Chu Xian, only large fish or fish with economic value are of some use to him. As for those fish that are of low value or have not even grown up, they don't have much use for him.

How much can you sell tens of thousands of fish in one net?It's only tens of thousands of dollars, and it will destroy the ecology of the ocean.

The value of one of his sea tanks has reached tens of thousands, so there is no need to do this kind of thing.

"If necessary, it's best for all countries to ban this fishing method of killing big fish and small fish." Chu Xian smiled after thinking about it.

Obviously this is impossible, and many businesses depend on it to survive.

Having experienced trawling and catching seven to eight thousand catties of fish, instead of making Chu Xian excited, he was a little unhappy.

In his heart, the ocean is his private domain, and of course it makes him feel a little uncomfortable to be destroyed so recklessly by others.

But if he is unhappy, he has nothing to do.

"I've caught them all, let's get some good things out and eat them!" Chu Xian shook his head slightly, then looked at the turtles on the fishing boat.

"Old Hulu, cook the sea turtle and eat it. Don't waste such a precious thing!" Chu Xian looked at the turtle and said to Old Hulu.

He is not a saint, since the turtle is dead, he will not dig a hole for him to bury him, he is dead, and he is not going to sell it, just eat it by himself.

"Okay boss!" Old Hulu nodded, and then carried the tortoise weighing twenty to thirty pounds into the kitchen to deal with it.

"See if there are any good things!"

Chu Xian immediately walked into the fish pile and looked.

Because there are no fish schools nearby, the fish caught are very mixed!
The most common ones are small yellow croakers, followed by hairtail and horse mackerel, which are generally small fish, and there are not many large fish.

"This squid can be eaten by Hulu. Speaking of which, I have never eaten squid before!" Chu Xian smiled, and then picked up a big squid.

"What is this? A crab?"

At this time, under a pile of fish layers, Chu Xian saw a big guy, a guy over one meter old.

"This is? A killer crab?" Chu Xian pulled him out, looking at the crab that hadn't died yet, wondering.

Taking out his phone, Chu Xian immediately searched the Internet.

"It really is a killer crab, this thing is very rare!"

Chu Xian looked at it curiously. The whole thing looked like a giant spider. The crab claws were about one meter long, which looked a little scary.

"Two claws are broken, you'll be the dinner tonight." Chu Xian grasped it curiously.

However, one of the claws of the killer crab suddenly came towards him.

Chu Xian quickly dodged, with a smile on his face: "As expected of a killer crab with a history of killing, it's really fierce!"
