Chapter 191 Fishing in the Lake
Chapter 195 Fishing in the Lake
After Li Zhuo got up, he called the security guards and went down to the lake together.
The security guard is Chinese and can speak relatively fluent Chinese, so communication is smooth.
After starting up the fishing boat, Li Zhuo steered it toward shallow water.
There are many tropical aquatic plants growing in the shallow water area, and one side of it is hidden in the shadow of the woods on the shore.
Li Zhuo put a fishing rod here yesterday.
The fishing method Nana taught him was to put the fishing rod in the water area where he thought there were fish. The difference from conventional fishing was that the fishing rod would be tied with a rope to a hanging branch on the shore, or something very strong like water hyacinth.
It can be fixed on water plants that are difficult to tear off.
Put the bait on the hook, put it down and tie it up, and then leave it alone. Wait a few hours before closing the rod again.
As soon as he got closer, he saw a fish rolling in the water and grass, causing a wave of waves.
This was obviously a fish. After Li Zhuo got close, he felt the rope from the water, pulled it and got the fishing rod, and then raised it.
As soon as I lift it, I feel it's heavy, and my strength fluctuates from east to west, competing with him.
Li Zhuo was very excited and turned to the security guard and said:
"Brother, I will pull the fish towards you, please pay attention to the fish."
The security guard was also very excited, holding a copy net in his hand and nodding.
The fish is very powerful, and the water surface splashes with waves.
Li Zhuo pulled it out of the water with force and found that it was a catfish, which is a species of giant catfish in Southeast Asia. This one is not very big among the giant catfish family, about eighty or ninety centimeters long.
The giant catfish is a very large freshwater fish that can grow up to 3 meters long and weigh 300 kilograms.
At this kind of weight, he can probably eat people.
However, guys that big are usually concentrated in the Mekong River. Food is scarce in small lakes, so individuals that can grow to forty or fifty pounds are considered very large.
This one was estimated to be less than thirty pounds. Li Zhuo pulled it to the side of the boat, and the security guard easily took it into the boat.
This catfish struggled very hard in the water, but it became calm when it was pulled onto the boat.
It looks quite plump, and I guess the taste is about the same.
It was a good start, and Li Zhuona was quite excited.
He then started the boat again and drove towards another place, which was near a mountain and some dead branches fell into the lake.
The terrain was a little complicated. Li Zhuo untied the fishing rod from the dead branches and then pulled the fishing rod. He found that the fish had indeed been caught, but the fish was dragging the fishing line and getting entangled in the pile of dead branches.
Li Zhuo tried it and found that it couldn't be pulled. It was obviously stuck.
Don't panic, Li Zhuo tried to straighten the fishing line in his hand slowly. He was very lucky. After the fishing line bypassed two thick branches, the line became loose. Li Zhuo then pulled the fish out with force, and a black fish came out.
The fish suddenly jumped out of the water and opened its mouth to bite him.
"Snakehead fish! Be careful, this guy bites hard." The security guard reminded.
Snakehead fish is commonly known as Doman fish, and its scientific name is small shield snakehead. It is a species of snakehead fish unique to Southeast Asia.
It has a mouth full of sharp teeth and a powerful bite. Among all species of snakehead fish, this guy’s fighting power ranks first, and it can often bite other fish in half.
Li Zhuo took advantage of the situation and pulled the fishing line directly into the cabin.
This is tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap.
The security guard came over to help hold down the fish and caught it.
It weighed about seven or eight kilograms and looked really fierce. Li Zhuo counted it and found that its lower jaw had 16 inwardly growing canines, and its upper jaw had two rows of teeth.
If you were kissed by this tooth, you would probably lose a piece of flesh.
Sure enough, it is still fun to fish in Thailand, there are many resources, the fish are big, and the fish are still full of vitality.
Li Zhuo sailed to the next place. This place was an empty pole. To be precise, the fish escaped with the hook.
Continuing to the next place, Li Zhuo carefully closed the rod and lifted the fishing line. When he pulled it in, the line suddenly became very tight, and then a fish suddenly jumped out of the water, making a splashing sound and a large splash of water.
The security guard was very excited and said:
"Boss, this must be a giant Siamese carp, it's quite big."
This carp was indeed big and strong. It kept trying to escape. Li Zhuo was almost pulled into the water by it several times, and even the boat was pulled forward by it.
The security guard volunteered to take the fishing rod and continue to compete with the fish.
After more than ten minutes, the giant Siamese carp finally lost its strength and was dragged sideways to the side of the boat.
The net was too small and useless, so Li Zhuo simply stretched out his hand to grab the fish's mouth and dragged the fish into the cabin with force.
This guy looks like an ordinary carp, but it's an enlarged version, about 1 meter long, and it looks like it weighs seventy or eighty kilograms.
The giant Siamese carp is the largest living carp and can grow up to 300 kilograms in weight.
Li Zhuo patted its head hard, and it made a banging sound. He felt like he had accomplished something extraordinary by getting such a big guy.
For this reason, he even took two selfies holding the fish.
Li Zhuo then put the giant Siamese carp back into the lake.
The giant Siamese carp is said to be delicious, but the fish caught today is enough to eat.
It can only grow so big and is probably old, so Li Zhuo let it live.
If you bump into your hand next time, you will have to be embarrassed.
After the big fish returned to the lake, it wagged its tail and left quickly.
At the last fishing spot, Li Zhuo pulled up a bamboo shoot fish weighing four to five kilograms.
The fish resources in this lake are really abundant. All the hooks he set caught fish, and none of them were small fish.
The reason may be that the lake is surrounded by either manors or barren mountains, and few fishermen come here to fish, so there are more fish here.
On the return trip, I set the hook last night and today I harvested a catfish weighing almost thirty kilograms, a Doman fish weighing seven or eight kilograms, and a bamboo shoot fish weighing four or five kilograms.
A giant Siamese carp weighing 70 to 80 kilograms was also released.
Li Zhuo was carrying the eighty to ninety centimeter long giant catfish in one hand, and Doman and the bamboo shoot shell in the other hand. It was not too heavy. When he saw the gardener and the Filipino maid, he had to show off a few words——
"How's it going? Not bad, right? I caught it and I'm going to eat fish today!"
It wasn't until the gardener and Filipino maid in the manor knew about this that he went into the house to find Nana.
Nana was washing up when she heard Li Zhuo's loud voice outside the villa, seeming to be showing off the fish he had caught, so she walked out of the washing area.
She was still brushing her teeth, and as soon as she went out, she saw Li Zhuo holding a fish and looking for her at the bedroom door.
She looked proud but afraid of disturbing her.
Nana wanted to laugh, but quickly held it back, pretending to be surprised and asked:
"Is this the fish you caught? Oh my God, is it so big? My dear, you are so good!"
Li Zhuo's tail instantly went up to the sky:
"Whatever this is, it's all trivial. Although this one is okay and weighs 15 kilograms, but let me tell you, I just released a giant carp. Its length reaches my waist and its width is about
I'm even the same, I still have photos here..."
As I said that, I wanted to put down the fish and touch my phone.
Nana was worried that the fish would stain the floor, but she didn’t say it directly, but said with a smile:
"Give me those two smaller fish, so that I can enjoy my boyfriend's good luck... Wow, they are quite heavy, awesome!"
Li Zhuokang raised his hand and took out the photos on his phone to show them to Nana.
After Nana saw this big fish, she said regretfully:
"Next time you go fishing, be sure to take me with you. I will also take such good photos."
"Ok, ok, let's go together next time." Li Zhuo agreed repeatedly.
Nana looked at the water stains on his clothes and smiled again:
"My dear, how about we eat the fish you caught today? Thank you for the delicious food, but do you want to change your clothes first? Wearing wet clothes can make you sick."
"Okay, I'm going to change. Let's eat this catfish first. Braised in braised sauce is the best..." Li Zhuo muttered and went to change clothes.
In fact, no one here knows how to make braised pork, not even Li Zhuo.
In the end, Nana made the decision and asked the gardener to clean the catfish and cut it into two halves.
Marinate half of it first, add onion, ginger and coriander, wrap it in tin foil, and bake it in the oven.
Chop the other half into small pieces, put it into a large container, add cooking wine, oyster sauce, salt, and peanut oil to marinate, then transfer it to a large plate covered with coriander and scallions, put it in a steamer, and use the steam to cook the fish
Ripe.
Not to mention, the catfish made this way looks very good.
And because the catfish here grew up in the lake, they don’t have that earthy smell. They have white garlic meat and are delicious.
Li Zhuo ate a lot himself and decided to catch catfish again in the future. It was so delicious.
This is nothing short of an unforeseen disaster for the catfish in the lake.
