Chapter 714
"The price is quite right." Zhou Zhi heard this amusedly: "I saw another flooded old field at the end of the pond. The loach and eel there are also three yuan a pound?"
"Hey, you kid knows how to take advantage of loopholes." Dad Wei laughed and said, "That's definitely not possible. Three yuan a pound is enough, and it only includes carp, grass carp, crucian carp and the like."
"You still can't catch anything like this." Wei Ma added firewood to the stove and complained at the right time.
The fishing nest material is ready-made. Crush half-cooked sweet potatoes, mix with chicken feed, sprinkle with some raw and tender corn cut with a knife, put it in a plastic bag, swallow a small sip of koji wine, spray it in and shake it evenly, and the nest material will be ready.
Done.
Then take boiling water and perm the chicken feed, add sweet potato puree, use bran to disperse it, add flour to increase the adhesive force, and let the bait dissolve after entering the water for a while, then you can fish.
Fish don’t like it to be too deep in hot weather, so one meter or more is enough.
Laowei's fishing map is very convenient. It's just outside the dam outlet. I like to fish there. It's a good place in winter. In summer, fish don't go there. It's a hell if you can catch it.
So Zhou Zhi took him over the embankment and to the other side away from the road. He walked upstream and found a tip to test the water. The water was about two meters deep and there was a field dam below, which was very flat.
The 5.8-meter pole was just right. After Zhou Zhi laid the nest, he started to help Dad Wei adjust the float.
After trying back and forth several times, he trimmed the lead sheet to the right size. Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "This pendant will be suitable for this float from now on. As long as it is not broken by the float, it can be used. Every time you fish, the tail of less than five meshes will be exposed. It will be fine."
Simple.”
"Tch, I don't believe it, it must have been fished with an elbow!"
Next is the connecting rod. Newbies love big hooks. In addition, this pond has not been used for decades. The few crucian carp that came up were very large, and none of them weighed six ounces.
"Didn't you say that I can't catch it?" Dad Wei immediately boasted: "I caught all these by myself!"
This grass carp weighs about four kilograms. This pond is basically a pure wild pond, and the water quality is also very good. The scales of the big grass carp caught are golden with a green light, which makes you tempted even after looking at it.
Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I'll buy these crucian carp and take them back to make milk soup for grandma."
After carrying the fish back to school, Wei's mother was shocked when she saw it: "Why did you catch so many?!"
The remaining grass carp and carp are only seven pounds and cost about 20 yuan, which is in line with Dad Wei's current consumption level.
"It doesn't matter, just catch another big one and then call it a day." Dad Wei said with great interest, "Catch another big one."
"The crucian carp man gave me the money. He said that the water and fish under Anle Mountain were good, so he wanted to take it back to honor grandma." Dad Wei quickly explained.
This is also the reason why fishing can cultivate your body and mind.
Dad Wei was startled: "Is that so much?"
"Old man, is this enough fish?" Zhou Zhi said, "There are many dishes tonight."
"Seeing as you have been doing it for so long, I guess I won't be able to learn it." Dad Wei said: "Adjust the other pole for me too. The matching will be fixed so that fishing will not be tiring."
After three rounds, the big grass carp died and lay on the water. Zhou Zhi handed the fishing net to Dad Wei and taught him how to fish.
"It's not bad... Oh, it's not small!" At first, the fish didn't exert any force, which made Dad Wei underestimate the enemy. However, the rod sank slightly, which scared Dad and made him squat down quickly.
"Don't panic, don't panic." Zhou Zhi hurriedly assembled the net and taught Dad Wei how to fish: "Put the pole up, and move your hand down a little. Okay, just hold it like this. Is the fish big?"
Looking at the bubbles in the fish nest, Zhou Zhi smiled bitterly and put away his fishing rod. If he lowered his rod again, he would really not be able to finish all the fish today.
The two of them worked together to carry the fish guard and came to the dam of the fish pond while talking and laughing. Dad Wei went to greet the old man to weigh the fish and pay.
This fish is worth six yuan a pound.
Zhou Zhi did not dare to say that he would pay for everything, so as not to hurt Dad Wei's self-esteem.
Being a professional fish boy is the right thing to do.
Zhou Zhi didn't help either, relying entirely on command, and let Wei's father slip the fish alive, and just called it a day after having enough of his addiction.
"If you can hold it, don't be too tight. If you can stand up, just stand and run away, and you can also retreat a little." Zhou Zhi completely became a coach: "Don't be too hard at this time. As long as it doesn't move away, let it go slowly."
Swim, if it goes outside, reverse the pole and pull it back...quickly reverse the pole!"
The main purpose of rubbing the bait here is not to make it palatable when the fish swallows the hook, but to make the bait somewhat dissolve from the moment it falls into the water, forming a three-dimensional nest from the water surface to the bottom to attract fish.
"Uncle really caught it all by himself, so I will be responsible for bringing the fish to the house." Zhou Zhi said: "But we can't finish these fish tonight anyway. Xueshan, let's make a grass carp, and then you can raise the carp and eat it slowly, and the crucian carp."
I'll take it home."
The fish were very active in this weather. As soon as five o'clock passed, the pot was boiling in the nest, and then when I saw Dad Wei, the float suddenly disappeared.
"Uncle, are you almost done?" Zhou Zhi advised again after seeing that several large crucian carp appeared in the fish guard.
Dad Wei hurriedly raised the pole: "Elbow, here it comes!"
As soon as the big fish rushed out, Zhou Zhi held Dad Wei's right hand, tilted the pole to the left, and pulled it back.
After hearing this, Zhou Zhi somewhat understood from whom Wei Fei inherited his lazy tendons.
In summer, a three-pound carp is more powerful than a five-pound grass carp.
However, this fishing method requires rhythm and constant throwing of the rod to renew the nest, which would be troublesome for a novice like Dad Wei. The best solution is to have someone nearby who is responsible for renewing the nest, and he is responsible for guarding the nest.
In fact, the difference between veterans and novices, apart from their skills, is more about their mental state when fishing.
While talking, another big black float came. Zhou Zhi looked at the bending of the pole and finally breathed a sigh of relief. The big one is here!
This fish was more satisfying to Dad Wei than the first grass carp because it was a carp.
When fishing, you need to fish from the head. Don't tilt it when fishing. You have to hold it vertically, otherwise the fishing net will easily break from the pole head. These are all details.
After the first round, he was basically stable. Zhou Zhi put down his hand and comforted Dad Wei not to worry, while letting him experience the feeling of fighting with fish to relieve his nervousness.
There are many details about fishing, and Zhou Zhi has no intention of teaching them in depth. As long as the nests are gathered together in such a raw pond, it will be no problem even if you use sweet potatoes and wheat to catch fish.
Putting the fish away, Zhou Zhi couldn't laugh or cry: "This weighs at least ten kilograms."
"Not enough!" Dad Wei's addiction had just started, when Rong Zhouzhi interrupted: "Catch two more!"
Wei's mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then said angrily: "I'm sorry to let the child pay for it by himself, so quickly ask Wei Fei to go to the gas station canteen to buy a box of beer."
"Let's go, let's go, you don't even know what flavor we like." Zhou Zhi quickly stopped: "Commander, you and your step-brother go!"
The boys had a lot of fun in the afternoon. They swam in the pond and touched snails. They made a large pot of at least several dozen kilograms. Now everyone was smashing the snails to get the meat. Wei Yi kept picking up the broken shells and the internal organs.
Feed the chickens and ducks in the bamboo forest behind.
Grass carp is also very simple to cook. You need to carefully cut the fish open, wash it, remove the scales, and remove the meat. Leave the head, tail and skeleton to Mother Wei to make soup and stew with tofu tomorrow. Only take the fish fillets and slowly blanch them in hot water of 80 to 90 degrees Celsius.
Cook it, take it out and drain it, give it to Feng Xueshan and pour the cold seasoning on it, it is a cold fish dish.
