Sea fishing skills:
1. Classification of sea fishing
According to the different target fish, sea fishing can be roughly divided into rock fishing, trolling and road fishing. There are several categories: Asian and iron plates. For friends who mainly fish in the domestic sea, it is recommended to start by learning rock fishing. The literal meaning of "ji" is a stone protruding from the shore into the sea. The so-called "ji fishing" means standing on such a stone to fish. The main target fish for rock fishing is sea bream.
2. Sea fishing locations
Sea fishing has different venues according to different classifications. Most of the domestic sea fishing locations are concentrated on the southeast coast, such as Zhoushan and Yushan in Zhejiang. Wanshan and Nan'ao Island in Guangdong are both famous fishing grounds. Friends who like to travel overseas have more choices. Almost every island that is a tourist destination is also a fishing destination, such as the Maldives, Mauritius, Palau, Sri Lanka, etc. Moreover, foreign marine resources are well protected, fish species are abundant, and there are many sea fishing methods to choose from.
3. Prepare equipment
After deciding where to go, you can configure the equipment. Here there are two categories: safety equipment and professional equipment. Safety equipment is essential. Take rock fishing as an example. You need to prepare a life jacket and reef climbing shoes. These two items are related to safety and must not be omitted. Other outdoor equipment such as polarized glasses, gloves, sun hats, etc. are standard equipment.
For sea fishing in China, you need to equip yourself with professional equipment. The main configuration of floating rock fishing is rock fishing rod, reel, main line, sub-line, Awa (float), lead, cotton knot, eight-shaped ring, retaining beads and hook. The composition of the fishing group is shown in the figure below. In addition, the fishing box, Rod bags, nest material boxes, powder spoons, powder shovels, and copy nets are all indispensable. Although fishing friends often lend and help each other, every sea fisherman must first have all the equipment for individual combat.
4. Pay attention to safety
The unknown nature of the sea is both a temptation and a risk. Important things must be said three times. Before going fishing, be sure to determine the weather conditions for the day. If a typhoon or tropical depression approaches, rough waves will suddenly occur on the sea surface, and the consequences are difficult to predict. Whether to go to sea must strictly follow the captain's experience and judgment. If you encounter sudden strong winds and waves, you must put away your playful spirit and retreat decisively.

Notes on sea fishing:
1. When setting off for sea fishing, you should bring all the fishing gear you need, including hooks, fishing lines, and more. It’s best to bring a few sets with you. Especially when setting a hook in a cave at the bottom of a reef, hooks and broken lines are inevitable. If the journey is long and the journey is long, be sure to bring enough food and supplies.
2. The ocean is much deeper than the water in rivers, generally tens or hundreds of meters, and bottom fish in deep water are under great pressure. Once a fish is caught on the surface, it quickly decompresses and will die quickly. To keep it fresh and alive, it must be deflated. The method is to use a deflation needle (usually an injection needle) to pierce the belly of the fish and gently press the belly to allow the gas to be discharged from the body. The fish will then be able to adapt to the water surface environment and live longer.
3. The ocean is generally deep and currents are large, making it difficult to keep fishing lines straight. Therefore, once a fish signal is found, the movement when lifting the rod should be large and the strength should be sufficient. If the water is shallow, it does not matter if the rod is lifted slower; if the water is deep, the rod is lifted too steadily, too slowly, and the force is too small, the fish is likely to fall. will run away.
4. As the saying goes: "Fire and water have no mercy." When fishing, you must pay great attention to safety. When fishing on boats or on rocks, you must wear a life jacket to prevent accidents. In addition, when fishing on the rocks, not only must you wear special nail shoes for rock fishing, but you must also go together and do not act alone to prevent mutual rescue in the event of an accident. Luji, which is generally considered to be relatively safe, is not safe and must not be taken lightly. It is easy for waves to pass through Haiji, but not Luji. Under this situation, the sea water continues to rise, and the rising seawater from left to right often outflanks Luji, posing a great threat to fishermen. Once you encounter a storm or tsunami, you must remain calm and retreat to a safe area in a planned and prepared manner.
5. There are big fish in deep water. There are all kinds of ferocious fish on the sea, and some fish can bite off a boat's oar in one bite. When fishing at sea, once a very large fish is caught, it will pull the hook and bait away like a ship. After the line in the reel is released, it will still pull. At this time, if you estimate that it will be difficult to bring him into submission, you can make an immediate decision, cut off the fishing line, and save the fishing rod. This is "sacrificing the soldier to protect the commander." If you encounter this situation on a small sampan, be careful not to let it overturn the boat to avoid casualties.
