Xiang Yang had actually discovered it a long time ago, but he was too lazy to remind him.
People like Fang Youqun were all stunned under the water for a long time when they first went into the water. It was really good that Tang Bao was able to remember the important matter within a few minutes.
Tang Bao, who seemed to be getting down to business, immediately started catching turbot. With his rich diving experience, although he started a few minutes later than the others, his efficiency was surprisingly high and he soon caught up with everyone else.
When Xiang Yang swam over, Tang Baozheng saw with his sharp eyes that a turbot as big as a washbasin buried itself under the sand on the seabed. He swam over excitedly, and with a push of his hands, he caught the turbot in his hands.
"Not bad." Xiang Yang gave Tang Bao a thumbs up. This turbot weighed more than ten kilograms. This fish alone was enough to pay his salary for the day.
Tang Bao smiled embarrassedly when he saw Xiang Yang giving one of them a thumbs up. He was really embarrassed. He was a professional scuba diver, but he caught the least fish this time. So far, he had not even filled the third net bag.
Of course, if this turbot as big as a basin is added, the third net bag will definitely be full.
Xiang Yang gave Tang Bao an encouraging look, then patted his shoulder, motioning him to hurry up and then come down to continue fishing.
Tang Bao nodded vigorously and immediately swam towards the surface of the water.
Xiang Yang shook his head when he saw Fang You's group swimming up. It would be a bit of a waste of talent for someone like him who had received professional diving training to catch turbot. In Xiang Yang's real opinion, Tang Bao could only truly display his value in deep water.
Watching Tang Bao swimming away, Xiang Yang retracted his gaze, flashed to a turbot, and put the turbot into his net bag.
Taking advantage of his ability to swim freely in the sea, he quickly filled the net bag around his waist and then swam away.
At this time, Xiang Yang no longer thought much of fish like turbot. He could move freely on the seabed and had the advantage of vision. It would be a real waste if he stayed there picking up turbot like an ordinary crew member. He quickly moved to a distant place, trying to see if he could find some valuable and precious fish.
Qinglongwan is poor and a little backward.
But poverty and backwardness also have their advantages. The waters of the entire Qinglong Bay are clean and clear. Not to mention marine garbage, even oil pollution is rare.
Xiang Yang swam comfortably under the clear sea water and looked around.
Turbot and small red fish can be seen everywhere, and occasionally you can also see grouper.
Xiang Yang did not touch the groupers. Although the price of this fish is a little higher than that of turbot, it is also not a rare catch. The most important thing is that this fish is afraid of people underwater and swims very fast. It is okay to catch one or two occasionally, but if Xiang Yang goes to the sea and catches a whole net bag directly, it will easily arouse suspicion.
This stretch of underwater beach might really be barren. Apart from the ubiquitous turbot and small red fish, Xiang Yang didn't even see many squids.
However, Xiang Yang found a lot of crabs under the beach, but these crabs were not swimming crabs, nor were they meaty tiger crabs. They were just very small sand crabs, which are a very worthless kind of crab. You can buy a big bowl of them for dozens of yuan at a night snack stall, and there is not even a bite of meat in a bowl.
Xiang Yang wanted to see if there were any larger sand crabs to catch.
As a result, Xiang Yang walked to the beach and stepped on it. The beach sank directly, and several shrimps as big as Xiang Yang's palm struggled out from the sunken beach.
Palm-sized shrimps are considered extremely small among shrimps, but they are not cheap and they taste great. It is a pleasure to eat them alone. Xiang Yang pounced on them and quickly caught all the shrimps with both hands.
"You guys are lucky." Xiang Yang smiled slightly and poured out the turbot that had been caught in the net bag. As soon as the turbot left the net bag, they immediately scattered and fled in all directions. Two of them were particularly timid and fell directly at Xiang Yang's feet. Then they tried their best to burrow into the sand and hide themselves tightly with the fine white sea sand.
Xiang Yang put the lobsters into a net bag. Having tasted a little success, he searched more carefully in this area of sea sand. If he could catch a net bag of lobsters, it would be more cost-effective than catching ten net bags of turbot.
Xiang Yang looked around, and suddenly he saw a huge black shadow appearing in the sea in the distance.
"Are Big Head and Second Head coming?" Xiang Yang smiled casually and was about to swim over.
Halfway through the swim, he suddenly froze because he discovered that the huge black shadow was not a humpback whale.
"This is a fin whale." Xiang Yang took a breath. The fin whale is also called the true baleen whale. It is distributed in the world's oceans from the South Pole in the south to the Arctic in the north. People have seen it in my country's South China Sea, Yellow Sea and East China Sea.
Xiang Yang looked at the huge creature carefully. This fin whale was at least 25 meters long and weighed conservatively about 60 to 70 tons. Just by raising its head, it was larger than the two humpback whales combined.
In fact, it is normal that the fin whale is larger than the humpback whale. The fin whale ranks among the top three in size among all whales, second only to the blue whale, known as the miracle of life, and is comparable to the bowhead whale.
The fin whale did not notice Xiang Yang. It was swimming leisurely in the sea, occasionally opening its mouth wide to take a breath.
The color of this fin whale is not symmetrical, with a blue-gray back and a white belly. Xiang Yang guessed that this might be the result of its preference to swim to the right when ingesting food.
Compared with the humpback whale, the body of this fin whale is like a spindle, with a round cylinder in the middle, and a small and pointed head and tail. If it weren't for its too fat belly, its whole body would look like a slender streamlined shape.
Overall, this fin whale looks very good, and it is also a very beautiful creature in the whale family. It is not as bloated as other whales, but rather looks a bit like a sea fish that has been magnified countless times.
The difference between the fin whale and other whales is not only its body shape and appearance, but also its long fin which other whales do not have.
There are complex baleen on both sides of the fin whale's aperture and mouth. The colors of those baleen are different, some are light yellow, some are gray-black, some are white, and some are dark blue. This is the most important external feature of the fin whale, which is completely different from other whales.
Xiang Yang tried to swim towards the fin whale.
