Chapter 150 Unexpected Gains

Soon, the fishing boats were far away from this central wind area.

The rain in the sky has completely stopped.

The wind and waves on the sea have also become much smaller, at least the hull has not shaken so much, but occasionally there will be some sea water, which is beaten by the waves and sputtered onto the deck.

In this extreme weather, people sitting on a boat is like sitting on a roller coaster.

No one has the intention to go back to the cabin to sleep, and it is impossible to sleep.

Li Xuan took the crew and chatted in the cabin.

Wang Lei touched Li Xuan's arm and said with a smile: "Brother Xuan, look at the deck, the fishing catches that fell are really not the case. If we collect them all, they will almost be worth the ones we have caught in the sea."

Li Xuan smiled, indeed, the tornado brought a lot of sea fish to the sky.

The fishing boat rushed out of the tornado, and the boat was indeed covered with a layer of fishing catch.

There are all kinds of fishing catches, including shells, conchs, and sea fish.

If an uninformed person sees it, he might even mistake the fishing boat for a seafood grocery store.

At present, there are too many types of seafood on Li Xuan's ship.

There are fish on the surface of the sea water, various marine organisms in the middle of the sea water, and fisheries that only appear in the deep sea, from common to rare.

Of course, among all the fish on the boat, the most valuable one is a Sumei fish.

It wasn't the first fish that landed on Li Xuan's boat, the Sumei fish had long been blown into the sea by the strong wind.

This Sumei fish was another one sucked into the sky by a tornado and then landed on Li Xuan's boat.

In fact, this Sumei fish should be called as a corrugated lip fish.

Because it is much larger than ordinary Sumei fish, it is more than two meters long and looks like a big fat pig.

It lies in the pile of fish, particularly conspicuous among the sea fish, and its body is extended and oblong.

The head contour is straight from the back to the eyes and then protrudes; the adult fish's forehead protrudes the exit end.

The upper and lower jaws of the fish have a row of bevel teeth, and a pair of large canine teeth at the front end.

Its dorsal fin and anal fin are extended to the base of the caudal fin; the caudal fin is round, which is a characteristic of its adulthood. It is said that some adult fish can reach the ventral fin after the fish tail.

In addition, the green body color of this Sumei fish, as well as the yellow-green and gray-green horizontal lines on each scale on the side, the head has orange and green mesh thin lines, and the thin diagonal lines on the dense fins, which also proves that this is a very old Sumei fish.

Li Xuan pointed to the Sumei fish and said, "The Sumei fish should have been saved. I will freeze the fish in a while, and it is still quite valuable."

Sumei fish mainly lives on very steep reef slopes. The depth is generally around 60 meters. It usually appears alone and occasionally appears in pairs. It is a large species in the family Aroseaceae. Although it is a carnivorous fish, it has a mild personality and is easy to get close to people. It is generally based on fish and benthic animals as the main food.

Corrugated lipfish is a famous giant fish that survives offshore waters in tropical areas. It is generally distributed in Oceania, the tropical waters of the western Pacific Ocean, the Great Barrier Reef, the northwestern Indian Ocean and the Red Sea. Its size is huge and delicious. It is used as a precious edible fish. It can also be used as an ornamental fish in aquariums or large display fish tanks.

Wang Lei looked at the huge Sumeiyu and exclaimed: "The strange fish is so big and looks so weird."

Li Xuan smiled and said, "This is quite small. The corrugated lip fish can usually reach 2.5 meters in length and weigh more than 200 kilograms. The size of this fish is only about 2 meters, which is relatively tender."

The adult corrugated lip fish has obvious markings and colorful colors. Each corrugated lip fish has a unique pattern on the face, which radiate outward from the eyes, just like human fingerprints.

The corrugated lipfish is a large erectus, which is more famous in my country as the name Sumei.

The two words "Su Mei" originate from two streaks shaped like eyebrows behind this fish's eyes.

In addition, because the sapphire fish has a high bulge, just like the hat worn by Napoleon, it has the name "Napolic fish".

As for Wang Lei, Su Meiyu's appearance is very strange.

It's indeed a bit weird.

The Sumei fish is very big, but the adult fish's eyes are very small, located on the upper side of the head, and the space between the two eyes is very bulging, so it looks very funny.

Li's father looked at the Sumei fish and said, "I seem to have seen this fish before, and it seems that this fish is not worth it."

Li Xuan shook his head and said, "Dad, what you see must be the breeding Sumei fish. The number of wild Sumei fish is very rare and the meat is very delicious. It is hard to find a fortune in the market."

Li Xuan is telling the truth.

The living habits of Sumei fish are destined to prevent the number of wild Sumei fish.

Sumei fish usually live alone and appear in pairs only when they are rarely.

The adult fish of Sumei fish parades between reefs during the day and perch under reef caves and coral frames at night.

Although corrugated lipfish is the largest coral fish, it is susceptible to frightening and drills into the reefs for safety when frightened.

The corrugated lip fish has a gentle temperament and is easy to get close to people. It is very popular among divers because they can even allow divers to touch it.

Sumei has long been traded as an economic fish.

The meat of corrugated lip fish is tender and is a very famous delicacy. It is very expensive. A kilogram of corrugated lip fish can be sold for about 1,500 yuan.

A plate of Sumei fish's lip can be sold for more than 2,000 yuan.

The expensive price of Sumeiyu stimulates a large number of people to take risks to catch them.

Because the population density of corrugated lipfish is not high, in areas that have not been caught or lightly caught, there are only about ten adult corrugated lipfish in each hectare of coral reefs, which is far from the minimum density required by economic fish. In heavy fishing areas, the population density will drop to one-tenth of the original, and some areas will simply become extinct.

Fortunately, Sumeiyu generally likes to live in deep seas that humans cannot reach.

Moreover, corrugated lipfish has a complete set of skills to deal with prey.

If the prey hides in the cracks of the reef, it will stretch its jaw to clamp the prey tightly and drag it out.

For hidden prey, it will bite off the coral branches where the prey is hiding, or blow away mud and other coverings by spraying strong water flow to catch the prey.

If the prey drills under the stone, the corrugated lipfish will turn the stone with its powerful jaw, and it will also crush the hard shell of the crustacean with its hard pharyngeal head and teeth.

The recipe for corrugated lip fish is very wide, with fish and benthic animals as the main food, and a wide variety of invertebrates.

Foods of Sumei include molluscs, fish, sea urchins, crustaceans and other invertebrates.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to fish, Sumei fish can also eat many poisonous and spiny animals, such as sea urchin, crown thorn starfish, hard scale fish, and sea rabbits.

The corrugated lipfish will not be poisoned after eating these poisonous animals, but toxins will accumulate in the corrugated lipfish. If consumers eat the corrugated lipfish that has not been cleaned up toxins, they will be poisoned.
