The yearning life starts from catching the sea

Chapter 82 Green Sea Turtle

Qin Tian felt the wind and waves of the open sea on the side of the boat, and then walked into the cockpit of the fishing boat.

Li Haiquan was using a fish finder to detect fish schools. After hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head to see Qin Tian, ​​and said with a hearty smile, "Boss, how are you? Can you still get used to it?"

Qin Tian smiled and said, "I'm fine. I enjoyed the invincible sea view on the deck just now. This open sea is indeed more original than the coastal area. I don't know if the ocean will be more shocking!"

Li Haiquan said with a chuckle: "Boss, if you want to know what Yuanyang is like, you have to go and see it by yourself in the future. The charm of Yuanyang cannot be described by others."

Qin Tian nodded with a smile, and went to the front of the console to look carefully. In addition to the Beidou locator that every trawler must install, there are also fish finders, speed and collision avoidance devices, equipment data meters, route navigation devices, and automatic cruise systems. , radar system, etc., the various functions and control systems of Chengfeng are relatively advanced.

Li Haiquan saw that Qin Tian seemed to be very interested in the console, so he kept explaining beside him, and finally he let Qin Tian take the helm for a while, to get over the addiction of driving a big fishing boat.

After a while, the two of them sat down. Li Haiquan looked at the fish finder and said with some emotion: "More than ten years ago, the equipment of fishing boats was not as advanced as it is now. Many of the older generation of fishermen were observing the sea water conditions. To judge whether there are fish schools in the sea and whether it is worth setting the net to catch. Although the judgment result is not that accurate, there are many seafood resources at that time, and you can catch fish just by setting the net."

"But the situation is different now. Seafood resources in the sea are gradually being exhausted. If we really follow the previous method to search for fish, I'm afraid it will only be out of ten nets."

"So the other functions of the current fishing boats can not be advanced, but the fish finder must be advanced. No matter what industry it is, if it is backward, it will be beaten."

Qin Tian looked at the fish finder and nodded in agreement, "Yes! It's no joke that technology changes the world."

Although Qin Tian has various skills endowed by the System Fisherman Professional Medal, he still cannot do without the assistance of various equipment and instruments. If he can see if there are fish by looking into the sea, then this ability is not called a skill, but It should be called supernatural power.

The two were chatting, and the Chengfeng was also driving slowly along the ocean fishing route.

Many people think that fishing boats can run freely on the sea. In fact, there are many roads on the sea, just like there are roads on land.

Because the topography of the seabed is the same as that of the land, there are mountains and valleys, plains and hills, and various ocean currents will meet and flow, so over time, as people understand and become familiar with the ocean, the sea is divided into many parts. Channels and routes.

There are freight waterways and seafood fishing routes, some of which are divided along the migratory trajectory of fish schools, some are divided along the passage where cold and warm ocean currents meet, and some are divided along plains and canyons.

Moreover, the seafood and fish that can be caught by each route are different, so the types of fishing boats corresponding to fishing operations are also different, mainly including trawlers, seine fishing boats, longline fishing boats, shrimp fishing boats, squid fishing boats, etc. .

In short, it is not that fishing boats cannot run around in the sea, but fuel costs and economic benefits make it unnecessary for fishing boats to run around.

At this time, a lot of moving dots suddenly appeared on the fish finder, and Li Haiquan immediately said excitedly: "Boss, I found a fish."

Then, he began to adjust the sailing direction of the Chengfeng, and used the walkie-talkie to inform all the crew members to get ready that they were about to start their first fishing operation this time.

Qin Tian walked out of the cockpit with a smile, and saw that the crew was busy under Liu Yunqing's command. They were wearing waterproof clothes and gloves, and quickly prepared the trawl net.

At this time, Chengfeng was speeding up to the sea area where the fish school was located, and their battle was imminent, waiting for Li Haiquan to give an order.

After half an hour, Li Haiquan's steady voice sounded through the intercom, "Attention everyone, you can start logging off the net."

After hearing the order, several crew members standing at the stern immediately threw the trawl net into the sea with all their strength. Amidst the rolling waves, the trawl net sank into the sea under its own weight. Driving forward, under the resistance of the sea water, the trawl net was continuously pulled into the sea until the whole trawl net was opened in the sea, and then Chengfeng began to drag the trawl net forward at a low speed.

Standing on the deck, Qin Tian watched the waves continuously splashing from the stern, and was also looking forward to the harvest of the first net in his heart. Will the net explode?
Gradually, the Chengfeng began to slow down, and the crew also began to collect the net under the command of Li Haiquan and Liu Yunqing.

Qin Tian watched from the side the whole time, and found that the crew members were usually a little unruly, but when they actually did things, they were very proactive, and their actions were skillful, and they cooperated with each other tacitly.

Soon, the Chengfeng stopped, and the trawling net was received by the crew from the stern to the bow, and tied to the net hoist. Slowly, the net hoist started, and the trawl net was pulled out of the sea. Qin Tian and the crew They all showed excited smiles, because the end of the net has formed a big bag.

Liu Yunqing came over and asked Qin Tian with a smile: "Boss, do you want to open the net yourself?"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile and agreed: "Okay, I will open the first net!"

After saying that, he walked to the middle of the bow deck. At this moment, the net hoisting machine, under the operation of Li Haiquan, slowly hoisted the trawl in front of Qin Tian. Qin Tian reached out and grabbed the rope head, pulled hard, and then immediately backed away.

Suddenly, with a crash, a large pile of seafood and fish rushed out of the trawl.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes were attracted by a big guy. Its probing movements and light green shape made people recognize its identity at a glance, the green turtle.

Qin Tian looked surprised, Liu Yunqing looked helpless, and the other crew members looked depressed or angry, obviously they didn't welcome the arrival of this big guy.

The green turtle was lying on the seafood and fish, with seaweed in its mouth, and looked at the group of people with big eyes blinking. It was a little confused, thinking about the famous philosophical question: Who am I?Where am I?What should I do?
The green sea turtle is one of the largest hard-shell sea turtles, and this green sea turtle is obviously an adult. Its body is huge, with a length of about 140 centimeters and a weight of more than 200 kilograms. It is a veritable big guy.

It wears an oblate carapace, with only its head and limbs exposed outside the shell. The head is slightly triangular and has a pair of dark brown scales on its forehead. This also causes it to get stuck when it retracts its head and cannot fully retract it. Inside the shell, he could only face Qin Tian and the others bravely.

Qin Tian looked at this handsome green turtle and showed a smile. Yes, he is handsome, because it has a relatively long tail, and the claws on its forelimbs are also thick and curved into a hook shape, which is a typical male turtle feature.

Because the male tortoise needs to hook the carapace of the female tortoise with its forelimb claws when mating, so that it can insert its copulator into the female's cloaca, and the mating time can last for three or four hours, so it is very necessary to have a pair of tortoises. Strong and powerful claws, otherwise they will not find a mate.

Green sea turtles are large migratory turtles that forage in one fixed area and mate and lay eggs in another fixed area.

It mainly eats seaweed, and occasionally eats molluscs, arthropods, and fish. It is the only species of sea turtle that eats more seaweed, and it is also the only species that goes ashore to bask in the sun. Therefore, this green sea turtle is on the deck at this time Basking in the sun without feeling any discomfort.

However, Liu Yunqing and the others felt uncomfortable, because they needed to put this troublesome green turtle back into the sea before they could start sorting seafood and fish.

Generally, when fishing boats go out to sea to catch seafood and fish, the most annoying thing is to catch protected animals, which make people drool, but they can’t keep them in their pockets, and they have to obediently send the protected animals back to the sea carefully, for fear of hurting anyone. with.

And this green turtle is a protected animal, and it is a particularly troublesome one. Its huge body will make people feel very headache.

Qin Tian looked at Liu Yunqing and asked, "Old Liu, do you often catch sea turtles?"

Liu Yunqing replied with a wry smile: "No, there are generally more sea turtles along the coast and fewer in the deep sea. The last time we caught sea turtles was two years ago."

"That time made us all have big heads. Sea turtles look docile, but they go crazy and bite people when they see them. We can't use some violent measures. We have headaches, really headaches!"

Qin Tian smiled and stretched out his hand to pat him on the shoulder and said, "Old Liu, since you have dealt with such a big guy before, then quickly send it back to the sea! It is our unshirkable responsibility to protect rare and endangered animals. Moreover, if this drags on, those seafood and fish products will be dried up in the sun!"

Liu Yunqing sighed, nodded and walked forward, calling three or four crew members to get busy together.

First they drew a net, and before the green turtle had time to show its teeth, they rushed forward and caught it, and then they began to tie a slipknot to its carapace with a rope, and then They tied the rope to the net machine before carefully removing the net and releasing the green turtle.

When the green turtle found that the net had been removed, it tried to pounce on a crew member with its two forelegs. Its fierce look scared the crew member back a few steps, and almost sat down on the deck.

Liu Yunqing looked at the crew member with contempt and cursed: "Xiong Jianfei, your surname is Xiong, but don't be so bearish! Don't you know that sea turtles can't jump? You are so afraid because you are afraid that it will bite off your first baby." Have three legs?"

Xiong Jianfei blushed, but he didn't dare to talk back, so he obediently bowed his head and stepped back to stand aside.

Liu Yunqing glared at him and didn't say anything about him, but used the walkie-talkie to inform Li Haiquan to operate the net hanging machine to lift the green turtle up and move towards the sea.

And he held the other end of the rope slipknot, and followed the green turtle to the side of the boat. When the green turtle had reached the surface of the sea, he pulled the rope hard, and the slipknot was untied, and the green turtle regained its strength. Freed, the body sank into the sea.

Liu Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief, and used the walkie-talkie to inform Li Haiquan that the net crane could be put away, and then he began to organize the crew to sort out seafood and fish.

Qin Tian also stood on the side of the boat and watched the green turtle return to the sea smoothly, feeling a little emotional in his heart: Humans are really the natural enemies of everything in this world!Now even sea turtles are being protected!I don't know if there will be a day when you need to protect mice?
He shook his head, put his very boring thoughts out of his mind, walked to Liu Yunqing and began to check the harvest of the first net.
