Chapter 735 734. Going to the Sea (35)

After the storm, the weather was sunny.

The next day, Li Du saw the Australian-style clear sky, the sun was extremely hot, and it was already autumn, so it stands to reason that the sun shouldn't be so hot.

However, there seems to be no atmosphere in the sky in Australia. The sun shines down, and it seems that there is no obstruction, and it directly shines on the person, causing the person's skin to hurt and burn.

Da Ao rubbed half a bottle of sunscreen on his body, and Li and Du shared the remaining half bottle. Even so, they still felt uncomfortable in the sun when they stayed on the rocks by the sea in the morning.

There are many regulations for fishing abalone in Australia, many more than those for warehouse auctions.

First of all, there are regulations on the size of abalone caught, and the minimum size should not be shorter than 5 inches, which is 12.5 centimeters.

Secondly, fishing tools can only use abalone pry boards that meet the regulations, and daggers or other knives cannot be used to catch abalones, otherwise the abalones will die due to excessive blood loss.

Again, they carry the abalone card with them, which is the abalone ID card, which must be filled out as soon as the abalone is caught ashore, and fixed on the abalone until it is eaten.

When Li Du went for certification a few days ago, he got a stack of abalone cards, on which the date, time, time of capture, and the location of the capture had to be registered, and copied to the abalone report card, which was collected and mailed to the Fishing and Hunting Bureau every week. past.

In terms of trading, the harvested abalones cannot be given away or traded immediately. They must be guaranteed to be the fruits of their own labor and then sent to the market.

Therefore, in this case, the caught abalone cannot be handed over to other friends for handling and moving on the shore, so as to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding and trouble.

Finally, it must not be illegal. During the abalone fishing season, officials of the Fish and Game Bureau patrol the coastline at any time, and now they will use remote video and drone video to monitor illegal abalone catches.

Offenders will be fined very heavily and will be taken to court.

In Australia, illegally catching abalone is a criminal offense. Those who have to be kept on the record are generally sentenced to half a year in prison and fined ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands of yuan.

If you are a foreigner, these records will affect your future entry issues. If you are an Australian, the impact will be even greater, affecting bank credit and the processing of some professional documents.

In short, when fishing black gold abalone, you must not violate the law, and you would rather harvest less.

Li Du and others waited on the shore, and soon saw someone appearing on the beach wearing a diving suit, diving goggles and other tools.

After warming up, they gradually went into the water, and uniformed Fish and Game officials came to check their abalone fishing licenses.

Without exception, these people either carried their documents with them, or handed over their documents to their brothers and wives, and they protected their documents very well.

Li Du was also fishing for abalone today. When an official from the Fishing and Hunting Bureau passed by him, he took out his ID to show it. The official gave him a strange look and said, "Is this yours?"

"Yes." Li Du said.

The official glanced at Godzilla and Ou, then pouted and left. Obviously, he guessed that Li Du was a member of a gang, and he stole this piece from him.

Occasionally there are abalones scattered in the reefs by the sea, but most of them are not up to the standard, barely less than ten centimeters, and they are all small ones. These cannot be caught, so they can live well here.

Li Du admires Australia's strict management of natural resources. If China can also protect fishery resources in this way, it can leave a lot of things for future generations.

The wind was light and the waves were light, so Li Du kept strolling along the shore, watching people fishing for abalone.

There are probably more than a dozen abalone fishermen in this sea area. Because oxygen cylinders are not allowed, people can only come up for a breather after diving for a period of time.

Li Du took a chance and saw someone coming up to take a rest, so he went there with hot cocoa to learn from the scriptures.

Passing the hot cocoa up, he smiled obsequiously, "Hey, buddy, what a great body of muscles."

The fisherman was a middle-aged Caucasian man in his forties, who had been diving all year round, which made him exercise a solid body of muscles, and Li Du cut in from there.

The fisherman looked at him vigilantly and said, "What's the matter?"

Li Du smiled and said, "I'm a tourist, and I'm very interested in your work..."

"My work is not interesting at all, you can find out about it online." The man replied coldly, and then left here with his wife on shore, leaving them far away.

The husband and wife walked and looked back at the same time, very afraid of Li Du and others.

Li Du could understand their feelings. The Godzilla and Da Ao he brought were not like good people, but worse than thugs. The fisherman was obviously worried that they would come to snatch his fishing license.

He found several people in a row, he wanted to learn some experience, but they were all turned away, even if he went to the door by himself, he didn't bring Godzilla and Dao.

There are not many big black golden abalones by the sea, but it is much easier to search than to find fire opal.

More than half an hour after Li Du came to the beach, a fisherman found a black gold abalone.

But after catching it, he immediately put the abalone card on it and stored it in the storage box. He didn't give outsiders a chance to observe it. If someone approached, he would drive it away with an angry roar.

Seeing this, Lu Guan sighed: "This industry has no human touch, boss, do you think they won't be lonely living like this?"

"You can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, do you feel lonely in your life?"

"Uh, no."

Li Du released small flying insects into the sea and searched around.

He had noticed earlier that there were a lot of abalones in this sea area, but the number of big abalones was very small.

In this way, because people can only hold their breath and search in the water, the search is difficult, and there are few large abalones that meet the fishing standards, so the chance of finding them is much smaller.

The small flying insects have a good vision in the water, and they can still find a few, but limited by the number, the efficiency is not high. It took Li Du some effort to find an abalone hiding in the reef.

This sea area is indeed a diving resort, the seabed is very beautiful, there are patches of coral.

The coral is bright and colorful, with sea anemones and seaweed growing on it, small fish, shrimps and crabs pass by constantly, and occasionally big fish and crabs can be found.

After some searching, Li Du found the big abalone. He took off his clothes and started warming up. He said, "It seems that I have to explore the experience myself."

Lu Guan asked: "Boss, are you going to go into the sea?"

Li Du said, "No, I want to do a striptease for you."

Luguan grinned and said, "This is impossible, you must go into the sea."

Li Du said angrily: "That's right, since you know it, you still ask?"

Being rejected by abalone fishermen several times in a row, he was in a bad mood.

Lu Guan said weakly: "I just want to express my concern for you, you have to be careful, the sea is very dangerous."

Li Du knew it was dangerous, but this sea area was fine. There was no undercurrent in the sea, so there was no need to worry about being swept into deep water. The sea water was relatively shallow, extending out for dozens of meters, and the sea water was less than five meters deep.

Therefore, fishing abalone here is relatively safe.
