A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village

Chapter 111: Spanish mackerel

   (Thanks to the reality for not being exaggerated, sad people~, 500 starting coins for the three readers of the other side ferryman!)

   "Boss, you are really amazing. You actually caught this big guy. I guess it weighs about 270 to 80 kilograms. If it weren't for its flatness, I guess this fish would be terrifying!"

   "Can this fish be eaten?"

   "I think I've never seen a fish like this for four or five years. It's really rare!"

   A group of people chatted and squatted down to touch the fish from time to time.

   "Boss, do you know this fish?" The old man Kimura looked at Shuichi Minano. He felt that he had seen this fish once, but he couldn't remember it because it was too old.

   "This kind of fish is called oartail, and it is also a type of oarfish." Minami Shuichi lit a cigarette to popularize it for everyone. It can be selected for the strangeness of this fish. 10,000 yuan just got it, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

   "The oarfish?" Everyone was stunned. But at first glance, it really looks like an octopus, but it is much bigger than ordinary octopus! Not to mention the body shape, the body color is much better than the ordinary hairtail.

   If it were placed in ancient times, it would have been thought to be a dragon from a distance!

   "This hairtail is too big! It's a super big hairtail." The length of ten meters really shocked everyone.

   "Boss, this oarfish should be considered a very unusual fish. It can be sold to Albert." Ishida Yu said with a smile.

   "That's right! I'm sure the fish caught by other fishing teams are not as unusual as the oarfish caught by you, the boss, and they will definitely be selected at that time!" A group of sailors flattered Nan Yexiu.

   "Okay, hurry up and help me deal with this fish and send it to the refrigerated warehouse!" Nanye Xiuyi, he likes to flatter him when he finds that his subordinates are okay.

  The oarfish Minami Shuuichi doesn't know how to deal with it, after all, he has never dealt with it. So it was simply processed and sent to the refrigerated warehouse for storage.

   When Minano Shuichi just sent the ten-meter-long oarfish into the cold storage, the system sounded a prompt tone.

   "Ding Dong... Northward, 7 nautical miles from the host, a school of mackerel was found. The coordinates of the fish school are 141.1 in longitude and 33.2 in dimension. There are 30,313 fish."

   "Mackerel?" After listening to the system prompt, Minami Shuichi became interested. It was the first time he encountered a school of mackerel after going out to sea for so long. Mackerel is also an economic fish belonging to Hokkaido fishing grounds, and it is said that the quality is not low.

   The direction of the fishing boats is just north, so there is no need for Shun Nanye to change the direction.

   "Check the mackerel information!" Minami Shuuichi entered the system and checked it out.

"The mackerel has a long and narrow body, with blue-black head and back. There are several rows of blue-black round spots on the upper side, the abdomen is white, and there are horns behind the dorsal and **** fins. In summer and autumn, they often form groups for long-distance migration. The general body length is 25~50 cm, weight 300~1000 grams. Distributed in the western North Pacific. Mackerel meat is tender and white, glutinous, soft and fresh, rich in nutrients, and the tail tastes particularly good, high quality and low price. Known as "pomfret mouth, horse mackerel" Sharma's "saying."

   "Mackerel, I haven't eaten it yet." Minano Shuichi had heard of this kind of fish in a previous life.

At that time, he heard that mackerel tasted very delicious. It was called "chuanwu" by people along the coast. It was the "best fish" that was most sought after by food lovers. Due to the scarcity of resources, the price of fish was "terrifying", and it was often sold. The price of a fish is tens of yuan.

   The price at that time was indeed a bit scary!

   However, in that era, it was not uncommon for fish resources to be scarce and so expensive to sell, but in this era, the price of this kind of mackerel should not be comparable to that of salmon.

  Minami Shuuichi just stood on the deck of the bow and waited quietly for the fishing boat to encounter a school of mackerel.

   "Switch Vision!"

   In the next second, Shuichi Minano's vision cut into the ocean. After a few minutes he found the school of mackerel.

  I saw that this huge group of mackerel in the sea was playing in groups like sardines. Generally speaking, mackerel is also a social animal, and you can see it when you look at it densely.

   After watching for a while, Minano Shuichi discovered an interesting thing. If you look down from the top, because the back of the fish is the same color as the sea water under natural light, it is not easy to distinguish even if it is very close to the fish. Looking up from the bottom of the fish, the color of the belly and the water surface and the color of the sky are very similar, and it is difficult to distinguish. This is also a kind of self-protective biological color evolution.

   "It's a group of interesting fish!"

  The four fishing boats moved forward quickly, and soon the fishing boats and the mackerel school were getting closer and closer.

   At this time, Nanye Xiu had withdrawn his vision early in the morning, and he did not need the deep-sea hunters and 20 pets to shoot. Lit a cigarette and leaned against the side of the boat with a few sailors blowing the water.

   Suddenly, a sailor pointed forward and exclaimed: "Old, boss, it seems like a school of fish!"

   I saw that the cigarette butts in the sailor's mouth fell on the deck, and he opened his mouth wide and pointed forward and exclaimed.

  In an instant, the surrounding sailors and Minano Shuichi all looked in the direction he pointed.

  I saw that in the blue waves ahead, a large group of fish formed a large area of ​​green and gray, and the waves stirred up the water, and the scene was spectacular.

   This picture is so beautiful and shocking! It's like an army crossing the border.

   "Wow~ So beautiful, so spectacular!" Inoue Ami also ran over to watch this rare scene.

   "If only I had a camera in my hand, I would definitely take this beautiful picture!" Minamino Shuichi was also stunned. He now regrets very much why he didn't buy a camera and take it with him on the fishing boat. Before, he thought it was very interesting to see those fishes on the bottom of the sea when he switched his vision, but now it is even more interesting to watch from a distance from a fishing boat. No, it should be spectacular!

   "What kind of fish is this, so special!" a young sailor murmured.

   "This looks like a mackerel, if I guessed correctly." An old sailor said solemnly after watching it carefully for a while.

  “Mackerel…”

   "Hey, don't look, fishing is important!" Noguchi Minami said loudly at this time.

   As soon as Noguchi Minami's words came out, everyone woke up like a dream.

   "Fishing Fishing!"

   "Oh, I almost forgot, we're not here for sightseeing, but for fishing, haha..."

   Minami Shuuichi also came back to his senses and laughed.

   "Hurry up and call the trawlers to kill them first, and we'll have three remaining fishing boats to flank..." Minami Hideyoshi made various arrangements. When the time comes, he must try the mackerel!

  Everyone was busy, and the fishing boats cooperated tacitly. Pieces of large fishing nets were thrown into the sea water. As the fishing boats were dragged, the fishing nets went to the nets of the huge group of mackerel fish.
