The Fish I Catch Can Be Upgraded - Chapter 297
Chapter 297 Inspiration from the video
“Get ready, three, two, one, hard!”
Following Chu Mingcheng’s instructions, the moment the fishing rod was taken out of the fishing hole, Jiang Luoluo immediately pulled back hard.
But the strength of the fish was unexpectedly great, even if they were together, they were still pulled forward by the fish and leaned against the side of the boat.
That is to say, the force was released a little bit, and Chu Mingcheng was able to stabilize with great strength now, so she didn’t hit directly.
This huge marlin is invincible to Jiang Luoluo, but fortunately, she is not the main force, she is just a support.
From the point of view of the fishing line, marlin are swimming far away from directly in front of them and swimming in the upper waters.
Although the unloading force has been loosened a bit, the hook has already penetrated deeply. At present, it seems impossible for it to wash its gills and spit it out unless the fishing line is broken.
Chu Mingcheng was not worried about this, the pulling force of the fishing line was very strong.
As long as you don’t force yourself, and the technique of walking the fish is good enough, you can catch fish weighing a ton, not to mention hundreds of catties.
Chu Mingcheng took two deep breaths. After feeling used to the pulling force, he stretched out his hand to block the handle that followed the marlin.
“Ding ding ding ding.” The crank handle was controlled, and a series of rapid collision sounds came out from the unloading part of the drum.
The fishing rod also “creaked” non-stop. After the marlin’s charge was blocked, it bent down a lot again.
Chu Mingcheng didn’t hold down the handle firmly, but just slightly blocked the speed of the fishing line.
Of course, his strength can completely stop the fishing line from continuing to be released, but the pulling force at that moment might break the fishing line.
He believes in the quality of the line, but he can’t bet on it.
In this short period of time, the marlin rushed more than 300 meters.
Now Chu Mingcheng held down the handle to fight against the marlin, which caused its swimming speed to slow down, and at the same time gave the fishing rod and line a buffer.
Jiang Luoluo grabbed the fishing rod with both hands, huddled in his arms and clenched his teeth, the knuckles in the gloves turned white.
She felt that with Chu Mingcheng’s operation, the force from the fishing rod became heavier and heavier, causing her physical strength to drain rapidly, and she couldn’t last long at all.
She has caught tuna alone, and she has also caught sailfish, but this is the first time for her to catch such a big marlin tonight.
The marlin seemed to her to be ignorant of exhaustion, rushing mindlessly like a mad bull.
At least the tuna and the flatfin sailfish caught before will occasionally pause when the first wave breaks out, allowing them to rest and buffer for a while.
This marlin never stopped, the tip of the fishing rod would swing from side to side from time to time, as if it was swimming and at the same time kept shaking its head to wash its gills.
Strength was squeezed out of her body bit by bit, Jiang Luoluo didn’t know how long she lasted, she just felt that it seemed like a century had passed, but the fish was still strong.
In fact, only seventeen minutes have passed.
Chu Mingcheng, who was also holding the fishing rod, kept controlling the fish from running too fast, and also paid attention to the situation of the fishing line.
Under his control, after more than ten minutes, the marlin only pulled out the fishing line for more than 100 meters, which was not as fierce as when it was not under control at the beginning.
However, Jiang Luoluo has no strength now, Chu Mingcheng can feel her exhaustion.
So he lightly touched the top of her head with his chin, and said softly: “Luo Luo, come out and rest first, drink some water and eat something.”
“This fish is not so easy to catch, I will need your help later.”
“Well, then I’ll take a rest first.” Jiang Luoluo knew that being tired and paralyzed was no good, and only by adjusting her state could she help more.
So she was not hypocritical, found a chance to let go of the fishing rod, and got out of Chu Mingcheng’s arms.
Without her, it is undoubtedly much more difficult to control this fish.
Chu Mingcheng obviously felt a greater pulling force, and he directly leaned against the side of the ship as a support to reduce his burden, but the crank handle, which was originally turned at a very slow speed, turned a little faster.
He was no longer as calm as when he was fishing for tuna. The muscles of his arms were obviously swollen, and the blue veins were exposed.
“Exciting!” Chu Mingcheng grinned, showing excitement.
Although Jiang Luoluo is just a delicate woman, but just now she shared a lot of pressure for him, allowing him to face this marlin calmly.
But after she left, all the pressure came on her.
However, the increase in difficulty also awakened the competitive spirit in his bones.
At this moment, his adrenaline surged rapidly, and the pressure from the marlin dropped in vain.
He pulled the fishing rod with both hands, preventing the fish from swimming comfortably, while further consuming its physical strength.
On the other side, Jiang Luoluo went to the kitchen to drink some water, and then found a large bag of snacks.
There are various high-calorie snacks such as jerky and chocolate.
Now it’s supper time, and it took so much effort to catch a fish, her stomach is already growling.
But I definitely don’t have time for supper, so I can only eat some snacks to top it off temporarily.
After Jiang Luoluo ate a piece of oil residue, two packs of pork buns, and two pieces of chocolate, her stomach suddenly felt less empty.
Breathing a sigh of relief, she came out with warm water and various snacks.
Feed Chu Mingcheng water and snacks to replenish his energy.
Although he has life transformation to replenish physical strength, the hunger in his stomach will not disappear.
Now that Jiang Luoluo is helping to feed him, it has given him a bit more strength.
After feeding the snacks, it took more than ten minutes.
Jiang Luoluo felt that he had almost rested, so he continued to crawl into Chu Mingcheng’s arms to help.
Although she was not as full as she was at the beginning, she still relieved a lot of pressure on Chu Mingcheng until she lost her strength and left to rest after ten minutes.
But after leaving this time, Marlin finally got tired and lost the momentum he had at the beginning.
Seeing this, Chu Mingcheng immediately turned the unloading force to the maximum, grasped the fishing rod with both hands and pulled it up vigorously, unexpectedly stopping the marlin from rushing forward at this moment.
On the surface of the sea nearly 600 meters away from the Poseidon, a huge black-skinned marlin swam up quickly, then rushed out of the water with a “crash”, leaped high, and hit the water with a “snap”.
In an instant, the water splashed in all directions, and other nearby marine creatures were frightened and scattered.
About 600 meters is the limit distance given by Chu Mingcheng.
It was too close, and the marlin rushed up to attack the fishing boat. Not only were they dangerous, but the boat was also prone to some damage.
Now is the period of the competition. If they are unlucky and the boat has a problem and cannot continue sailing, then they will cry without tears.
Of course, this probability is so small that it can be ignored.
In addition, running too far is not enough. I don’t know how much time it will take to pull back.
However, the fishing line was pulled out 600 meters, and he was somewhat helpless.
Chu Mingcheng’s current body is not yet at the level of science fiction, and he is strong enough to fight a big fish weighing two hundred catties alone. If he wants to directly fight against a big fish weighing more than five hundred catties, there must be a long way to go.
So at the beginning, the fish ran more than 400 meters away. Even with Jiang Luoluo’s help, he couldn’t stop the marlin’s momentum.
Because it was night, Chuming City could not be seen at a distance of 600 meters, so I could only feel the general movement of the fish from the angle of the fishing line.
He knew the fish was on the surface, so he put his right hand back on the crank and started spinning the reel.
Turn it two times, the handle will be firmly stuck on the owner, and the fishing rod will bend again.
So he continued to grab the fishing rod and pulled it up hard.
The marlin in the distance was pulled out of the water again, but this time its head was exposed, instead of jumping high like last time.
But just this time, Chu Mingcheng still took the opportunity to retract the two laps again.
Then enters the second stage of fishing, the tug-of-war between man and fish.
Chu Ming City’s current goal is to further consume the marlin’s strength until it completely loses its ability to resist.
Originally, he only needed to keep a distance and walk the fish slowly, but the fish was too far away from the boat, so he had to keep lifting the pole to reel in the line.
Chu Mingcheng reckoned that when he pulled the fish near the boat, it was also when the fish was exhausted, so he killed two birds with one stone.
After half an hour, the marlin, which was still fighting fiercely, was only pulled back more than 30 meters.
It takes almost a minute to recover more than one meter, which shows that this fish is difficult enough to catch.
Sometimes Chu Mingcheng managed to take back a little bit of the fishing line, but the marlin exploded a little and was pulled another four or five meters.
Jiang Luoluo had enough rest. Seeing that he was sweating profusely, he wiped his sweat with a towel, and then prepared to get into his arms again to continue helping, but this time he stopped him.
“Now I can do it by myself, but it will be difficult for me to operate when you are in my arms.”
Jiang Luoluo looked at his posture of lifting the pole, blushed, and felt that he was really no longer suitable to help.
So I fed him water and snacks, wiped off his sweat, and did what I could.
Chu Mingcheng continued to lift the fishing rod to reel in the line, but he just lifted it, and he suddenly found that the fishing line moved up a little bit, and the tip of the rod was not trembling enough.
“The fish jumped again?”
He had some guesses in his mind, but it was really difficult to grasp the fish’s movements if the distance was too far.
But if it is what he guessed, then it is a good thing!
It takes a lot of energy for the fish to jump to the surface of the water, and his physical strength is exhausted much faster than normal, so he can catch the fish back faster.
So he started to try, and every ten times he lifted the pole, he would make an extra ruthless one.
Then, he found that the fishing rod and the fishing line had the same movement from time to time, and he could retract more fishing line every time.
But the fish is too big, so you don’t need to troll it, you can only spend a lot of time to boil it.
After Chu Mingcheng pulled the marlin to where they could see it, it was already three o’clock in the morning, and the marlin was still sixty to seventy meters away from them.
The marlin’s figure is still vigorous, but it is actually too tired to swim.
Chu Mingcheng himself was very tired, his clothes were soaked with sweat, almost no place was dry.
If Jiang Luoluo hadn’t been feeding water beside him, his throat would have been smoking.
Now that the fish was in front of him, he took two deep breaths, mustered up his strength again, and pulled the fishing rod upwards hard.
This violent tug caused the hook in the marlin’s mouth to be pulled hard again.
Even if exhausted, Marlin, as the overlord of the ocean, has his own temper.
It accelerated again, exhausted all its strength, and rushed out of the water more than three meters high, leaving only a tail in the water.
“Wow~” Jiang Luoluo, who was already sleepy, was startled by this movement, his eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and he sighed involuntarily, “These big fish will always shock people.”
“That’s why so many people like to conquer these behemoths.” Chu Mingcheng had already relaxed and replied with a smile.
He relaxed because he saw the marlin unable to control his body, and fell sideways on the water surface with a huge splash.
This shows that Marlin has lost any strength, and he won this fight to the end.
For the remaining tens of meters, nothing unexpected happened.
When Chu Mingcheng pulled the marlin to the side of the boat, it showed how huge the marlin really was. When Jiang Luoluo put the rope around the fish’s neck, it was just a small one beside the fish.
But neither of them was surprised, because there was a bigger swordfish before.
At that time, the swordfish was more than 4.2 meters tall and weighed more than 800 catties.
And this marlin is slightly smaller visually, and it is estimated to be lighter in weight.
Sure enough, the marlin was hoisted up by a crane, weighing only 737 catties.
Chu Mingcheng measured the length, and it was 3.91 meters. It is estimated that it will be more than 4 meters.
“It’s strange, why do you feel that you fished so hard, but it turned out to be so much lighter than the swordfish last time.” Jiang Luoluo was a little puzzled looking at the weight.
She went on the field today and felt how difficult it is to catch this marlin.
It was almost eleven o’clock when the fish was caught, and now it is almost four o’clock in the morning, and it took a full five hours. When did it take so long for Chu Mingcheng to fish?
“That’s different. It must have been much easier to troll last time. And when the fish still had strength, it broke my rubber boat and I solved it with a speargun.” Chu Mingcheng laughed,
But in fact, he still has a lot to say. At that time, the swordfish rushed out 700 meters in almost no time, so he had to choose to troll, otherwise he would definitely run away.
But today is different, even with Jiang Luoluo’s help, even if he relies on himself, he will not let the fish escape.
Compared with today’s physical fitness, it is a world of difference.
Jiang Luoluo didn’t have much experience in fishing such big fish, so he didn’t notice the difference between last time and this time.
“It’s better to fish like this. You were too risky last time. I don’t want you to be in danger again.”
“Don’t worry, that time was just an accident, there will be no next time.”
After Chu Mingcheng had enough rest, he operated the crane to put the dead marlin on the deck, ready to bleed.
The marlin was stabbed in the vital part by him with a harpoon, and it hardly took long for it to cool off.
However, if it swims rapidly for a long time, the blood in its body must still be flowing rapidly, so it should be drained as soon as the blood coagulates.
Marlin does not need to be gutted, which makes sense.
However, marlin is the same as swordfish, the unit price is cheap, only about five to sixty-one catties, more visceral weight, it is also a comfort!
This marlin can be sold for more than 35,000 yuan, which is comparable to a high-quality bigeye tuna weighing more than 300 catties, which is not bad.
“Oh, it’s a pity that it’s marlin. If it’s such a big bluefin tuna, then we’re sure to be number one this time!” Jiang Luoluo patted the marlin’s body, sighing a little “greedy”.
“A blue fin weighing more than 700 catties, it is estimated that it can be sold for nearly a million?” Chu Mingcheng shook his head and laughed.
“That’s why I said it’s safe!” Jiang Luoluo also looked forward to it. If you want to encounter such a big bluefin tuna in domestic waters, the probability is no different from winning the lottery.
After draining the blood, the fish was hoisted into the refrigerated cabin with a crane, and then the two washed the deck, and then hurried back to the bedroom to take a shower and sleep.
But Chu Mingcheng kept an eye out and used a life transformation to recover some energy.
So I woke up at 8 o’clock in the morning, and I was still full of energy.
Jiang Luoluo probably won’t wake up until the afternoon. She is more tired this night than last time, and she needs some time to recover.
After breakfast in Chu Mingcheng, he started the Poseidon and turned on the cruising mode to go to the vicinity of the high seas. At the same time, he turned on the radio and listened to the harvest of the contestants last night.
However, the players this time seem to be less lucky than last time. Several of the popular players are complaining about the lack of fish, and they seem to be in the air force last night.
‘Could it be that a week of mopping up has resulted in a sharp reduction in the number of tuna? ‘
Then Chu Mingcheng smiled and shook his head, this is impossible!
There are only 300 ships, so it is not possible to catch all the large tuna.
If it is just fishing, bluefin tuna cannot be endangered, and bigeye tuna cannot be near endangered.
What caused devastating damage to tuna was the same as the large yellow croaker in the Zhoushan fishing ground in the 1970s. These species were almost extinct with fishing nets.
Fishing nets don’t matter how big or small they are, and once caught in the net, the fish will be dealt a devastating blow. Many fish will die without the net, and there is no chance of releasing them.
But even if the fish is alive, those people will not release it, after all, it is all money.
Therefore, these air force players should be purely unlucky.
Chu Mingcheng’s guess is correct. Youdao is a feng shui rotation. Last time, the lucky fishing masters didn’t get anything this time, but some other players got a lot.
Catch two or three large tuna in one night, and some people also caught bluefin tuna.
Although it is not as big as Wang Laoliu’s, it still weighs more than two hundred catties, and its value may be a little higher than the marlin that Chu Mingcheng worked so hard last night.
Chu Mingcheng didn’t hear any effective information, so he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Zhang Wei, asking them how they got last night.
However, they may have been busy late last night, and their mobile phones have been silent for a long time, so they should still be sleeping.
Chu Mingcheng felt that they should have gained something last night, otherwise they should start looking for fish in the morning instead of sleeping late.
The Poseidon sailed non-stop, and he also kept observing the situation on the fish finder.
Sometimes he not only looks for big fish, but also pays attention to the water depth and other aquatic creatures that may appear.
The current experience value of the Aquatic Illustrated Book is 71, and there are still 9 kinds of experience to be upgraded. He needs to complete the upgrade this week.
There is still at least half a month of preparation time for such a competition. He can use new abilities that may be helpful to the competition at any time according to the situation on the leaderboard.
Normally, if he wants to win the first place relatively safely, he must at least be 500,000 more than the second place.
If the probability of winning is to be increased to 100%, it must be at least one million more than the second place.
That is, two top-quality bluefin tuna weighing more than 400 catties and of excellent quality.
If someone encounters two of these top-quality blue fins in a row, they will have no choice but to lose Chu Mingcheng. This kind of luck is indeed very good.
After looking at the fish finder but finding nothing, he was bored and swiped the video on his mobile phone to pass the time.
Perhaps because of his professional relationship, when Chu Mingcheng saw fishing videos, he would click in and watch them. This also led to more fishing videos being pushed by the system.
So while scrolling, Chu Mingcheng suddenly saw a video of tuna hunting in a foreign place.
In the video, there is a man on the boat with a harpoon in his hand.
The harpoon was similar to the one he used to kill the marlin at night, only longer and heavier.
The companion of the man on the boat kept throwing bait into the water, attracting a large school of bluefin tuna.
Looking at bluefin tunas measuring two to three meters in length, Chu Mingcheng couldn’t help sighing that foreign resources are the best.
The group of bluefin tunas all swam to the surface of the water to grab food, and they even fried the water from time to time.
The man holding the harpoon has been observing the situation on the water surface. When he finds a large bluefin tuna, he raises the harpoon decisively and stabs it out.
The speed of the harpoon’s stabbing seemed slow, but it stabbed the bluefin tuna very accurately.
Then the man grabbed the thick rope behind the harpoon, turned on the crane, and it took only a few minutes to pull the fish up.
After watching the video, Chu Mingcheng’s eyes lit up, and he slapped his left hand on his thigh.
“Damn, why don’t you let me watch this video earlier, it’s a billion mistakes!”
The harpoons used by foreigners must be specially made. Without this harpoon, it is estimated that the effect of ordinary harpoons will not be very good.
The harpoon used on the boat needs to pull the fish to the surface of the water, and only after it is controlled can it have a chance to hit.
As shown in the video, the fish can even be pierced by a harpoon after running to a depth of four or five meters underwater. The harpoon on their boat is obviously difficult to do.
With such a relatively light harpoon, it must be easy to fall off, so this trick cannot be used by normal people.
But he is different, he has great strength, so he can give it a try, maybe he can really do it?
You don’t need to worry about the accuracy. Most of the time when the fish catches the side of the boat, you need to use a harpoon or a hook to kill the fish first, so the accuracy has been practiced.
With this trick, at least if he encounters a group of tuna like last time, he will definitely get more than four.
And the wounds from the harpoon are not afraid of being investigated, which is normal.
Of course, this method is not limited to fish schools. Making nests can attract fish to the surface of the water. Obviously, this is what the people in the video do.
At around 12:30 noon, Chu Mingcheng arrived at the destination.
Prepared lunch first, and after eating, he took out the harpoon.
The harpoon in the video is directly tied to the rope of the crane, no one needs to hold the fish, just start the crane directly.
People who pull the rope are prone to being dragged into the water by fish, so it is safe enough to be tied to a crane.
The string at the end of the harpoon in Chu Mingcheng’s hand was not that long.
The harpooned fish are all physically exhausted, so they are more tied to the hands like the rope that missed the hand.
This is not a problem, Chu Mingcheng can pull the fish to the surface by himself, or tie it to the rope on the crane.
He was just curious, what is the force of the harpoon thrusting out under his full strength?
So he took the harpoon to the side of the boat and began to test the strength and depth of the harpoon.
