Reborn in 1990, a life of fishing and gathering seafood.

Chapter 136: A Giant Grouper Weighing Over 136 Pounds [Please Subscribe]

"Splash!"

Huge splashes of water erupted from the sea surface.

A dark brown figure appeared.

Its mouth was relatively large, its lower jaw protruded slightly, and its sides and fins were covered with many bluish-black spots.

It's truly breathtaking!

"Holy crap!"

"It's a grouper!"

Fang Qiang and Fang Hao exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

I immediately recognized what kind of fish it was.

Giant grouper! Its scientific name is *Gastrodon saddleback*, also known as giant grouper, and it belongs to the genus *Gastrodon* in the family Gastrodontidae.

These things can grow up to two or three meters long.

Some even weigh several hundred kilograms.

This one in front of us weighs at least a hundred pounds.

"Yankees!"

"Quickly, grab it! Don't let it sink any further. It must be exhausted by now!"

Fang Hao quickly replied.

I never expected it to be a giant grouper.

They even weigh over 100 pounds.

It's normal for a grouper to weigh two or three hundred pounds, so this one weighing over a hundred pounds is considered small.

However, compared to other fish.

A shipment weighing over 100 kilograms is considered a huge item!

It took Fang Hao and Fang Qiang taking turns to finally pull this thing out of the water.

But...

All the hard work and effort was worthwhile.

A grouper weighing over 100 pounds is quite a haul.

"Brother Hao!"

"Bring it over with a harpoon."

"The net probably can't catch one."

Using a landing net is not very safe for a grouper weighing over 100 pounds; you can use a harpoon to hook the fish's mouth or gills instead.

That's how you get it under control!

You should know that what's in front of you is a live giant grouper.

It's nothing like those dead fish!

"OK!"

Fang Hao nodded.

The ship has harpoons and hooks.

As fishermen, they are certainly fully prepared.

Sometimes it can come in handy!

"Brother Hao!"

"Quick, I'll just pull it over here."

"Strike when the opportunity arises."

Fang Qiang said while reeling in the wire.

We have now reached the most critical moment.

Once the harpoon hooks onto the giant grouper, it's unlikely to escape. Then, the two of them can work together to pull it up.

A dragon pump weighing over 100 kilograms!

It's really not easy to pull someone up.

"Splash!"

.——

"good!"

"Got it!"

Fang Hao seized the opportunity.

The harpoon in his hand was instantly thrown.

The giant grouper was immediately speared by him, and its violent struggle splashed up a lot of water.

The commotion they caused was quite significant!

"pretty!"

"Brother Hao, let's get it up here together."

Upon seeing this.

Fang Qiang also said excitedly.

They caught such a huge grouper on this trip.

They made a killing!

"good!"

A smile couldn't help but appear on Fang Hao's face.

He originally thought it was a sea wolf fish or a bullhead trevally, but he didn't expect it to be a giant grouper weighing over 100 pounds.

This was quite unexpected.

Giant grouper is also a type of grouper.

There's a saying in the culinary world.

Anyone who hasn't tasted grouper isn't a true gourmet.

The meat of the grouper is tender and smooth.

Refreshing without being tough!

"Wife!"

"Get out of the way."

Fang Hao shouted at Song Yaxin.

Once this grouper, weighing over 100 pounds, is pulled onto the fishing boat, it will definitely struggle violently. If it gets hit, it might even get injured.

"Uh-huh.

""

Song Yaxin nodded.

They quickly moved to the side.

Even a giant grouper weighing over 100 pounds has considerable strength.

pat!

After being pulled onto the boat, the giant grouper was pulled in with a series of thuds.

It still maintains its energetic and lively demeanor.

He kept fidgeting in the cabin.

"call"

"This thing is too heavy."

"It weighs at least over 100 jin (50 kg)."

Fang Hao couldn't help but catch his breath and said.

It took two people working together to hook the giant grouper up; it would have been quite a hassle for one person.

"Wow, it's huge!"

Song Yaxin, who was standing next to her, exclaimed in surprise.

This is the first time I've ever seen a fish this big. Its mouth looks like it could swallow a human head.

"This is considered small."

"A real grouper weighs at least several hundred kilograms—"

Fang Hao shook his head and said.

Giant grouper is a type of giant rockfish.

Some weighed several hundred kilograms!

"Several hundred kilograms—"

Song Yaxin was somewhat shocked.

I imagined what this giant grouper in front of me would look like if it grew to several hundred pounds.

A truly colossal object!

"Brother Hao!"

"We made a fortune on this trip."

Fang Qiang stared at the dragon-headed monster and said.

His face was full of excitement!

I'm really lucky today.

"Hahaha!"

"Absolutely!"

Fang Hao also laughed loudly.

They were clearly very satisfied and happy.

If I had a phone or internet access, I definitely wouldn't be able to resist recording a video and sharing it.

"Phew~"

"Let's rest for a bit first, then head straight back."

Fang Hao then continued.

He sat directly on the edge of the boat.

The two of them had been battling the giant tortoise for so long that they were already exhausted.

"OK."

"Brother Hao, are you planning to sell this grouper, or keep it to eat?"

Fang Qiang nodded and then asked.

We definitely need to deal with this giant grouper that we caught.

As for whether to keep it for oneself or sell it?

That's a decision Fang Hao has to make!

"Let's see how much Wang Mazi is offering first."

Fang Hao paused for a moment before speaking.

In my memory, grouper was quite expensive in the 1990s, mainly because it was hyped up in Hong Kong and was considered a high-end ingredient!

In later generations, breeding techniques became more advanced.

The price actually came down.

"oh oh."

Fang Qiang was more in favor of selling it.

Converting seafood into cash is the real deal.

After all, money is more practical than food!

Most rural people are reluctant to eat expensive seafood, feeling that it's more practical to exchange it for money.

"The sun has begun to set."

"The scenery is quite nice."

As they chatted...

Fang Hao couldn't help but change the subject.

Pointing to the sunset glow on the horizon.

The setting sun returns to the mountains and sea, and the evening glow spreads across the sky!

"Mmm~ So beautiful—"

Song Yaxin nodded as well.

Actually, it had already started a moment ago.

They were just too busy working on this giant grouper to appreciate the sunset and the glow of the sea.

"It will look even prettier later."

Fang Hao said with a smile.

The beauty of the seascape!

It makes people linger and forget to leave.

In later generations, countless people will travel thousands of miles just to see this sea view.

,

Fang Qiang, standing to the side, shook his head.

A roughneck like me wasn't interested in these things.

What sea view!

What sunset and sea glow!

In his eyes, that's all there is to it.

It's not as attractive as the grouper on the cabin.

"Yankees!"

"We can set sail and return!"

Fang Hao then said.

You can enjoy the scenery along the way back.

It was still dark when we headed back.

"OK!"

Fang Qiang immediately nodded.

Then we started driving the fishing boat back.

"Wife!"

"If we had a camera, I'd love to take a picture with you to remember the moment, so we can look back on it when we're old —"

Looking at Song Yaxin standing at the bow of the boat.

Fang Hao felt that this moment was wonderful.

It's a pity there was no camera to record it.

'

Song Yaxin shook her head.

Cameras aren't cheap these days.

"Look!"

"There's a whale ahead!"

Just at this time.

Fang Hao suddenly exclaimed again.

A huge figure could be seen several hundred meters ahead, which looked like a whale from a distance.

Its head went directly out of the water.

Its open mouth resembles a scissor funnel.
