Chapter 68 The Sea of ​​Okhotsk



Chapter 68 The Sea of ​​Okhotsk

After talking about this, the crew members understood some fishing methods, and the next step is the actual operation.
Ye Yuan demonstrated in detail how to use the trawling net, how to use the ship's mixer, crane and other tools.

In the crew rest area, Ye Yuan also prepared a lot of information books introducing marine fish for these crew members, so that they can become better crew members.

Ye Yuan saw that everyone understood almost the same, so he ordered to cast the net.

As the boatswain, Yu Hongbo led several sailors under him, and he was not very proficient in the operation.

The fishing net was scattered like a long cloth bag, and as the fishing boat moved forward, it slowly slid down into the sea at the stern.

Ye Yuan didn't perceive the situation under the seabed, these operations are just for the crew to be familiar with the working process.

The fishing boat moved forward for more than an hour, and Ye Yuan began to lead the crew to pull up the nets. As the fishing nets slowly surfaced, a small bag of fish appeared in front of everyone.

Ye Yuan could tell that these crew members were very excited. After all, it was the first time they caught fish in their life, but the catch was really not that good. They were all about 1 meter barracuda. ​​Ye Yuan had also caught this kind of fish before. The value is average, and this net looks like a thousand or eight hundred catties, which is not a good harvest.

As the bottom rope was untied, the barracudas had been piled up on the deck. The crew members were sorting out different fishes. Ye Yuan didn't help, but just watched from the side, occasionally reminding them of the types of fish.

Everyone got started very quickly, and this lasted for a few nets, and the crew members were already familiar with the work as fishermen.

Seeing that it was almost done, Ye Yuan didn't continue to get off the net, but directly ordered Ding Yi to sail towards this destination at full speed.

Before Ye Yuan went to sea this time, he already had a plan.

This trip to sea can be called an ocean trip, and the destination is the distant Sea of ​​Okhotsk.

The Sea of ​​Okhotsk is a marginal sea in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.

The longest from north to south is 2460 kilometers, and the widest from east to west is 1480 kilometers, covering 158.3 million square kilometers.

The coastline is relatively straight, with a total length of 10460 kilometers.Shelekhov Bay, Ude Bay, Tai Bay, Akademi Bay, etc.

The sea water is shallow in the north and deep in the south, with an average depth of 821 meters and a deepest depth of 3521 meters, with a water capacity of 136.5 million cubic kilometers.

To reach the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the "Yushui" needs to pass through the Yellow Sea of ​​Huaguo and the Sea of ​​Waguo.

Regarding Ye Yuan's decision, no one on board has any opinion, after all Ye Yuan is the captain, he decides where to go fishing.

The Sea of ​​Okhotsk is also considered a continental shelf sea, but it is completely different from the Yellow Sea, which is also a continental shelf.

The continental shelf area of ​​the Sea of ​​Okhotsk only accounts for a small part of the seabed area. In addition, there are two deep-water basins in the seabed of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, which makes the seabed of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk deeper.

Because earthquakes often occur on the seabed of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the mineral content of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk is high, and there are more nutrients in the seawater, so it is more conducive to the reproduction of marine organisms.

Therefore, the Sea of ​​Okhotsk is very rich in fishery support, and various cold zone fish live here.Salmon, trout, cod, flounder are countless.

And the sea beasts here are also very rich. Some mammals such as whales, sea lions, and walruses also use this place as a breeding base.

As the "Royal Water" was getting closer and closer to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, the crew also began to feel the temperature gradually dropping.

Before Ye Yuan came out, he was well prepared.The crew put on their prepared jackets and stood on the deck.

Ye Yuan moved his body, and felt that there was already the sea crab he was looking for on the bottom of the sea.

"Brothers, move, get out of the crab pot"

"okay!"

The crew members replied in unison.

This time out to sea, Ye Yuan specially ordered a batch of crab cages. The crew used some fish with low economic value that had just been caught not long ago as bait, hung them in the crab cages and cast them on the bottom of the sea.

Ding Yi drove the fishing boat, adjusted the speed of the boat, and headed southeast. Ye Yuan stood on the deck and put his perception into the bottom of the sea.

"Squad leader, what do you mean the boss told us to get out of the crab pot? There are crabs down here? But how did he know that without looking at the radar?"

At the stern, Ma Hua, who was throwing crab cages, asked Yu Hongbo in a low voice.

Yu Hongbo glared at Ma Hua: "This is a ship, so the captain can do whatever he says. There's so much nonsense here."

Not to mention Ma Hua, everyone on the boat wanted to know why Ye Yuan got into the crab pot. Could it be that there are more crabs here?
At this time, Ye Yuan was in a very good mood.

He has found his goal here, which is to find snow crabs.

Snow crab has many names. It is called Songba crab in Japan, and Queen crab in Canada and Europe.

It is a large crab that lives in the deep sea. The carapace is about 20cm wide and the carapace is triangular. It is a kind of spider crab.
Its crab legs are very long, and some male snow crabs can reach 70cm long when they open their legs.In terms of appearance alone, it is very similar to king crab, so many people affectionately call it queen crab.

It is also a very delicious crab, and it is also the largest crab resource in All Blue Stars.

Although the resources are large, if you want to eat this kind of crab in Huaguo, you basically have to import it.

Ye Yuan's idea is to grab some and put them in his own space. The Sea of ​​Okhotsk has a lot of top-quality seafood, if he doesn't get them into his space, he will feel sorry for himself going out to sea this time.

It took more than two hours for everyone to release all the crab cages on the deck into the sea.

After casting the crab pots, everyone ran back to the cabin. The temperature on the Sea of ​​Okhotsk is at least [-] degrees lower than that of the Blue Island. Everyone was already very cold from the cold sea breeze. Everyone ran back to the cabin to enjoy it. The air conditioner is off.

Ye Yuan asked Gong Hongzhuang to make hot pot for everyone, hot pot is the best food to keep out the cold.

While eating hot pot, everyone chatted and talked about Waguohai, which is relatively close to here.

Several of them are from the navy, and they are quite familiar with the division of sea areas. Ye Yuan also learned some common sense through chatting.

Many people think that Waguohai belongs to Waguo, but it is not.

The Waguo Sea, known as the Whale Sea in ancient China, is the largest marginal sea in the Northwest Pacific Ocean. Its eastern boundary is from the north to Sakhalin Island and the Waguo Islands; the western boundary is the Far East of the Eurasian continent; the southern boundary It's Bang Country Peninsula.

Due to the special hydrological characteristics of the Waguo Sea, its ability to deal with pollutants is limited.A large amount of floating debris and domestic garbage from Bangguo flowed into the Waguo Sea, causing irreversible damage to the coastal environment and aquatic ecology.

In addition, the radioactive materials discarded by Saudi Arabia have had a great impact on the deep sea environment.Saudi Arabia has carried out excessive oil exploitation in the Waguo Sea, and its oil leakage problem has also laid hidden dangers for the environment in the Waguo Sea.

As a result, what was originally a paradise for fish has now become a place with very few fish resources.

Now Ye Yuan and the others are in the place where the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and the Sea of ​​Japan meet, and the crew members are all worried about the fish catch here.

After talking here, the crew all turned to look at Ye Yuan.

Thanks brother 08a for the reward
