This time, Jiang Luoluo seized the opportunity, after all, the fish had completely lost its strength and was lying flat on the surface of the water—if she couldn’t hit it, she could only be called a sports idiot.
But obviously, she was not.
Jiang Luoluo even took special care to aim, and the spear gun pierced through the fish’s head, almost killing it instantly.
After pulling the fish up, Chu Mingcheng finally had a chance to take a good look at his Yellowfin Tuna.
The blood had been drained, and the innards had been removed.
He used a crane to weigh it, and even after the blood was drained and the innards were removed, the fish still weighed 193 pounds. Clearly, its weight had indeed been over 200 pounds before.
Standing up, it was almost as tall as him—a truly enormous catch.
Jiang Luoluo’s catch was a bit smaller, around a meter and a half in length. After bleeding and gutting, the fish weighed 144 pounds, which was also quite impressive.
After catching two large spearfish, Chu Mingcheng decided to take a short break and went over to Wei Jiaguo to see how he was doing.
Only after getting there did he realize that the fish had already been pulled to the surface, just over ten meters away, ready to be hauled on board soon.
With the help of the crew, Wei Jiaguo managed to hold on.
Seeing him approach, Wei Jiaguo instructed, “Ah Cheng, go get the spear gun, you spear the fish.”
“Me? Okay,” Chu Mingcheng had thought Wei would do it himself, but having been entrusted with the task, he had no objections to lending a hand.
Getting the spear gun, the fish had already been pulled near.
Chu Mingcheng seized the right moment, and thrust the spear gun like a javelin, piercing directly into the fish.
Bright red blood instantly spread across the surface of the water, and the tail of the spearfish thrashed like an electric motor, spraying water everywhere.
But soon, it lost its vitality, and the crew tied a rope around the tail, hauling it up.
This spearfish was about the same size as Chu Mingcheng’s, probably weighing nearly 200 pounds.
Yellowfin Tuna generally can grow to about two meters and weigh over 200 pounds.
But with good luck, one might encounter Yellowfin Tuna reaching three meters in length, weighing over 400 pounds.
However, the chance of encountering such a large Yellowfin Tuna was similar to finding a Bluefin, and both were very rare indeed.
After fishing the three fish, the group went to the cockpit to check on the fish finder.
As expected, there were no signs of large fish remaining.
If there was no school of fish around, under normal circumstances, this was typical—as soon as a tuna was hooked, its companions would have already left before it could be pulled on board.
“Grandpa, there are no more fish now. Shall we go look for them?” Chu Mingcheng asked.
Wei Jiaguo looked at the time, it had been 1:30 PM when they arrived at this spot, and by the time they had finished fishing and processing the tuna, it was already 4:00 PM.
In another hour and a half, they would be ready for dinner and then prepare for night fishing.
“No rush, let’s rest for a bit. We can put the fish-attracting lights down at night, and they might lure a group of spearfish over,” Wei Jiaguo suggested and then steered the fishing boat for half an hour to an area near some solitary reefs.
Even if there were no spearfish at night, one could fish for deep sea fish, or near the solitary reefs for Stone Fish and sea bream—it was a very good fishing spot.
Maybe the afternoon’s fishing had nearly broken Wei Jiaguo’s back from effort, so after dinner, he said he needed to take a short nap and then went back to the bedroom, supporting his waist.
Before the sky grew completely dark, Chu Mingcheng took a reclining chair to the flybridge to watch the sunset.
In fact, he was already immersing himself in the fish compendium, because today, when he was fishing for spearfish, another data panel had opened up.
[Spearfish (Level 1)]
[Current Experience: (1/10)]
[Experience conditions: Killing a spearfish that weighs over 50 pounds will earn one experience point; killing a spearfish that weighs under 50 pounds will deduct one experience point.]
[Scan: Can view the weight of the spearfish]
[Tools available: fishing gear (can use handline), spear gun]
[Breeding Growth (Level 1): All slow-growing wild giant fish within the host’s bound range can have a 10% increase in breeding speed, growth rate, and survival. Moreover, 1% of migratory species will remain in the bound waters without traveling to other seas.]
[Binding Range: Hua Xia Sea and adjacent Public Sea (the maritime area of the host’s home country, which will change automatically according to the nationality of the host)]
[Affected Fish: Fish that can grow to weigh over 200 pounds and have economic value]
[Fish Aggregation (Level 1): Has a 1% chance to attract nearby spearfish to actively gather in the host’s waters.]
[Tastiness: +1% (Fish with more fat content and better meat quality will be prioritized)]
[Size: +1% (Larger fish of the same species will be prioritized)]
“What?” Chu Mingcheng, who had been lying down, immediately sat up when he saw Breeding Growth.
Hunting spearfish could actually improve the breeding, growth rate, and very importantly, the survival abilities of all the slow-growing giant fish in the domestic seas.
This meant that the more Chu Mingcheng focused on hunting spearfish, the better the resources of these giant fish would become in the country—wasn’t this encouraging him to focus on spearfish in the future?
It was clear that spearfish would become his main target after he acquired a bigger boat.
A 100-pound spearfish took 10 years to grow, and right now it was only a 10% increase. Wouldn’t the growth rate become faster as the levels went up in the future?
If the level could reach the maximum of a hundred, wouldn’t that increase the rate by tenfold, allowing a spearfish to grow to 100 pounds in just one year?
