Chapter 1302 Lowering The Ne (1/2)

The cargo ship was not a fishing boat. Hence, it was inconvenient to fish on the deck. The body of the ship was tall and when the fishing rod was thrown into the sea, one could not see anything. Any fishing was thus done blindly.

They were now in the Kara Sea. The area was located within the Arctic Circle, seventy degrees north of the Arctic Circle latitude. The polar night phenomenon could be observed in winter when the sun was abnormally low. The northern sea area was frozen almost all year round, and even in the southern coastal areas, the freeze-up period was nine months long. Even in summer, there would be many icebergs floating on the surface of the sea.

Blizzards were common during winter there. In summer, there would be a lot of rain and fog. Li Du and his group chose a good day for setting off. The sun shone brightly and the weather was clear. Hence, they were able to spot the pirate ship and icebergs early.

The Kara Sea was located on the edge of the Arctic Ocean and could be considered as a part of it. Although the Arctic Ocean was relatively unpolluted by human industry, the fishing catch there was inherently low.

Li Du threw out the fishing rod and after waiting for more than two hours, he did not have any success.

He withdrew the rod from the sea and said, ”Sh*t, there's nothing here. Is this a piece of icy cold dead sea?”

Steve, who was playing cards, laughed. ”Of course not. The Kara Sea is an important fishing region in Russia. Contrary to what you said, many types of fish live here.”

Li Du could only continue to grumble in response to that. Their ship was moving at top speed and it was not easy to fish at that speed.

Brother Wolf asked, ”Boss, you want to fish?”

Li Du said, ”I'd like to get some fish, yes. When we get on land, we can dry the fish up and have it as a supplement to our menu.”

Brother Wolf removed his shirt and said, ”Go down, throw the net.”

Li Du stopped him and asked, ”What? How are you going to bring the fish?”

Brother Wolf pointed to the lifeboat at the stern of the ship. ”Link up the lifeboat and the ship, and pull a net between the two vessels. If there are fish in the sea, we can definitely catch some.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Madman said, ”That's a good idea.”

The captain did not agree. Seeing that they had released the lifeboats and connected them to the stern with a cable, he drew a cross in front of his chest. ”God bless, please don't let the small boat capsize.”

The captain could only pray, as he knew that he would not be able to stop them. He could already tell by now that all his passengers were crazy. They were even crazier than the rebel gangs.

Brother Wolf and the rest got onto one of the lifeboats while Li Du got into another. They measured the distance between the two boats and then they threw the net together from their boats into the sea.

They had thought of the plan casually and had not expected much success.

However, their plan was just in accordance with the principle of the local fishing trade. The northern sea was too cold and when it was summer, many fish would float from the deep sea to the surface for warmth.

Most people would know that because of the pressure of seawater, deep-sea fish were unable to migrate to shallow seas, and fish from shallow seas could not go to the deep sea. However, in fact, was not an absolute truth. Some deep-sea fish could move to shallow waters, but they would have to rise slowly.

If it had been one or two months earlier, there would not be much fish in the Kara Sea. Some sea areas would still be frozen. They would not have been able to catch much while fishing.

However, things were much better in the current season. Li Du squatted in the small lifeboat, bobbing from the current. After a short while, he could sense that the towline of the fishing net became tight, a sign that the net had caught something.

He was quite elated at the discovery and pumped his fist into the air. ”Buddies, get ready to have a good reap!”

As their boat was not a professional fishing boat, they were unable to withdraw the net directly.

Brother Wolf had thought of an idea. He paddled to move his lifeboat nearer to Li Du's. The two lifeboats approached each other and with that, the two ends of the fishing net could be moved closer together.
