Chapter 743
Chapter 743
Looking at the sky from the sea, the moon comes out before the sun sets.
And for some reason, Li Du felt that the moon looked bigger from the sea than from the land, just like the composition he wrote when he was in elementary school: a big silver plate hung in the air.
As the night gets darker, the moon becomes brighter and brighter, and the snow-white light falls on the sea. The water waves are rippling and the waves are rolling. The moon is reflected on the sea, and thousands of moons appear.
Every wave jumps, there will be a moon jumping along with it, and every wave of water flows, there will be a moon appearing on it.
The moon and stars are sparse, the moon is very large tonight, and the stars are gone, only a few scattered stars are scattered in the sky, which can be regarded as accompanying the moon.
The moonlight was bright enough that Li Du didn't even need to turn on the lights.
For the first time, he knew that the moonlight could still be so bright, especially under the reflection of the clear sea water, the entire sea surface was bright. Li Du looked down from the bow of the boat, and felt that the sea water at this time was not black, but silver blue.
Robinson, the ship's owner, came over and handed him a bottle of beer and said, "Hey, Mr. Li, it's best not to stare at the water on a full moon night."
Li Du took the beer and asked with a smile, "Oh? What's the matter?"
Still in a habitual movement, the captain shrugged his shoulders before speaking, and said, "This is a legend of Jindao, as you know, the ocean has swallowed countless lives."
"Usually, these undead stay at the bottom of the sea. On the night of the full moon, they will float up to gain the power from the light of the silver moon. If they happen to see your shadow reflected in the water at this time, they will swallow your shadow and kill themselves. The dead souls make up for it."
Da Ao laughed and said, "This is really a terrifying legend."
Li Dudao: "Compared to the water ghosts in our Chinese ghost culture looking for a substitute, this legend is already very tactful."
Da Ao became interested, and said: "The water ghost is looking for a substitute? What kind of legend is this? Boss, tell me."
The captain waved his hands back and said, "Don't, are you going to start the road of horror legends on the night of the full moon? I'm sorry, but I can't participate. I'm going to prepare the fishing rod."
They were lucky, and they encountered a full moon night, which is very good for night fishing.
Most sea fish are phototropic, and the cold moonlight has an extraordinary allure for them. They will surface, and it is easy to catch big fish at this time.
It is a coincidence that they go fishing at night when the moon is full, but many old fishermen are waiting for this day, so there are quite a lot of people going fishing at night.
The sea area Robinson found has large schools of fish, and many people know this, so on this night, many fishing boats came and scattered on the sea to fish.
Compared with wild players like them, they are much more professional. Several lights gradually rose on the surface of the sea. These are fish lure lights, which are specially responsible for luring fish to the water surface.
There are two reclining chairs on the deck of the Lucky Harvest. There are fishing rod holders on the railings in front of the two reclining chairs, which can fix the fishing rod, so that you can just cast the hook and wait for the fish to take the bait.
Robinson asked Li Du if he knew how to fish. Li Du nodded and said, "I'm not an expert at fishing, but I still know the basic skills. If any fish are hooked, I will bring them up."
Hearing what he said, the boat owner said: "That's all right, then I'll hand over the fishing rod to you, and you can take care of it yourself. I'm going into the water to find some dinner."
Li Du was surprised: "Going into the water at this time? Will it be dangerous?"
The owner laughed and said, "I grew up in Tasmania. Before I could walk, I learned to swim. What's wrong with going into the water in such fine weather?"
He was more concerned about Li Du: "I'm sure I'm fine, but are you sure you're good at night fishing? Night fishing is still different from ordinary fishing."
Li Du asked humbly: "Please guide me, let me see if my experience is useful."
The boss gave him a toolbox, which was full of hooks, lines, floats, baits and other things.
Opening the toolbox, he introduced one by one: "The hook should be bigger, so that it is not easy to run fish, and the line can be thicker, so that the bottom is not afraid of breaking the line."
"It's different from fishing in normal times. Usually fishing with a big hook and a thick line can easily arouse the vigilance of the fish. It doesn't matter at night. The fish are all short-sighted. Without the help of sunlight, they can't see clearly."
"The rod needs to be strong and the pendant should be heavy. I recommend using a 100-gram pendant to let the hook go deeper. But you have to prepare a floating fishing rod and use a luminous float so that the fish can't run away no matter whether it is in deep water or on the water surface." Lose."
In addition to these experiences, the boss also taught him to use some auxiliary tools, the most important of which is a fishing light.
This kind of fishing light also has the effect of lure fish light, but it is not a professional fish lure light, and cannot be switched to the brightness that can attract the fish's attention most.
Its light is mainly used to illuminate the sea surface. After all, night fishing is very tiring for the eyes.
The fishing light has a display screen, which will display the power level. There are two kinds of lights, far and near, that can be switched between each other.
In addition, there are net scooping tools, multi-functional clip-type fishing brackets, mosquito repellents and other tools. When they are fully assembled, Li Du immediately feels like a professional fisherman.
Seeing that he probably learned how to use these tools, the owner put on a diving suit and jumped into the water.
Li Du saw that he was carrying a box in his hand, with a fishing net around his waist, and a harpoon and speargun on his back, so he guessed that there was no danger for him to go to the bottom of the sea.
He released small flying insects to scan the surrounding sea area, and found that the yacht was docked next to a hidden reef, which was located more than ten meters to the north.
The reef is only a few meters above the water surface, some aquatic plants and algae grow on it, and brightly colored sea fish swim around the reef.
After launching into the water, the captain swam to the hidden reef, which made Li Du more at ease. Obviously, the other party knew the existence of the hidden reef and wanted to go diving and fishing on the hidden reef.
The water area where the reef is located is not deep, so there is no need to worry about the water quality of the owner.
He flung out the fishhook, then lay down on the deck chair, leisurely looking at the bright night sky and the big moon rising gradually.
The moonlight is very good tonight, the air quality in Australia is also very good, and the night sky is highly visible. He can vaguely see the crater above the moon just by looking at the moon with his naked eyes.
Australia is rich in marine resources, and the place where Robinson chose to fish at night is a sea area full of fish. Li Du drank less than half a bottle of beer, and the luminous float began to shake.
Seeing this, he sat up straight and said, "Godzilla, come on, let's eat grilled fish tonight, and the grilled fish is hooked!"
Godzilla ran over in a hurry, but Li Du got up the rod in a hurry, and the fish was not fully hooked, so he broke free from the hook and ran away after being frightened.
Seeing the bare hooks, Godzilla smiled nonchalantly, brought beer and snacks such as dried fish, fish fillets, grilled shrimp, and pickled crabs left by the boss, and said, "Boss, take your time. "
The hook returned to the water, and the two of them drank some wine and ate these little things. Li Du somehow remembered a line of poetry:
The bright moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this moment!
