Eel catching composition

Chapter 1: Fishing for eels

On Sunday, the weather was fine and the sun was shining. My father and I were carrying buckets and fishing hooks, ready to go fishing for eels in the countryside.

When we came to the edge of the field, my father and I dug up a few earthworms and put them in bags as bait. Then we started looking for eel holes on the field ridge. The field ridge is not as wide and flat as the road. It is narrow, wet and slippery. Before I could walk a few steps, I fell onto my back and my butt was covered with mud. I wiped it with my hand and it turned into With a big painted face, this funny look made my father laugh out loud. At this time, I was so angry that I really wanted to go home, but when I thought about it, I couldn't do things halfway! I got up, washed my hands, and started looking for the eel cave again. My father and I searched and searched, and finally found a medium-sized hole on the edge of the field. The entrance was wet and a little smooth. Dad said it didn't look like a snake hole, but maybe an eel hole. So, I carefully put the fishing hook into the hole, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, there was no movement at all. I was a little impatient, and my father seemed to see what I was thinking, and said softly to me: "You have to be patient when doing things, and if you persist a little longer, you may gain something!" Sure enough, after a while, the fishing hook was shaking left and right, and I had quick eyes and quick hands. After pulling hard, an eel as thick as a thumb finally appeared in front of me. Although it struggled desperately, it still couldn't escape my grasp. "Haha!" My father and I laughed happily...

Soon, half a day passed, and the bucket I was carrying was still not full, but I was still very happy. Because I understand a truth: no matter what you do, you must be patient.

Chapter 2: Catching eels

On the afternoon of May 1st, I came to my uncle’s house to play and saw a large water tank next to the door. I walked over and took a look and found that there was There were many eels hiding under the water, and the idea of ​​catching eels came to my mind. But the water is very deep, how to catch it? I fell into thinking for a moment...

Suddenly, I had a plan in mind, just four words: to alert the snake. "Snatching the eel from the grass" means first rolling up ripples in the water surface, using the ripples to turn the eel up, and then taking the opportunity to catch it, isn't it? My sister happened to come over and we discussed it, so the matter of making waves fell into her hands. My sister kept stirring her hands in the water, and saw a large whirlpool rolling out on the water. The vortex rolled out was like a big windmill spinning. Suddenly, an eel was turned up. With my quick eyes and quick hands, I grabbed it and succeeded! I saw a pair of small eyes of the eel, sparkling from time to time, a smooth body, a thin tail, a brown back, and a yellow belly. I was fascinated by it, but when I wasn't paying attention, the eel "chirped" Slide back into the water and dive to the bottom. I thought: eels are so "cunning"!

We did not lose heart and caught many more eels. I was holding the eel in my hand, and sometimes I was scaring my mother so much that she screamed; sometimes I was teasing my younger brother, who was making him laugh; and my own clothes and pants were also wet, but I didn't care at all, and I was still there. Have fun...

Although it was difficult to catch the eel, I experienced joy that I had never experienced before and felt very happy.

Chapter 3: Composition on catching eels

Summer vacation is here again, and my brother is back. It was a sunny and windy day. It makes people feel very comfortable. The two of us met to catch eels.

We found a "feng shui treasure land" and started looking for the eel cave. "Brother, there is a hole." "Really? I rushed over like a blind eye. When I looked closely, it turned out to be a big gap. I was so happy for nothing! Forget it and look for it again! I tried my best to suppress my anger. Brother My eyes suddenly stopped on a small hole as big as my thumb. My first reaction was, "Eel Hole!" I immediately started digging. Haha. , not afraid. I asked my brother to come over and dig. "There is no hole left." "No more." "Oh, come and dig this." The two of us dug again, and the sun was shining on my brother and me. Soon we both were sweating profusely. I raised my head and shouted "Wow". We dug a full meter.

About 20cm deep. I thought to myself: I have been digging for so long but I still haven’t found anything. Is there nothing left? I wanted to give up. But then I thought: There is a saying that persistence equals victory. How could I give up so easily? I started digging again. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh" my finger seemed to be bitten by something, "it's an eel" my brother shouted. When I saw it, it was as thick as my finger. I grabbed it right away. Haha, the emperor has paid off. I finally apprehended this eel, which was 20 cm long and 3 cm wide. "Hahahahahahaha" I looked up to the sky and laughed.

The sun sets in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines on our way home. We walked on the road, holding the eel in our hands, thinking about the adults' compliments, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in our hearts. Not only did I catch an eel that day, I also learned about perseverance.

Chapter 4: Fishing for eels

When I was shopping on Sunday, I found someone selling eels. The eels were small and thin, with different sizes, and there were puncture marks on the mouth. They were obviously Caught wild eel. This reminds me of my childhood eel fishing experience.

At that time, every summer, we boys would appear in the fields and ditches. During the summer vacation in July and August, it was the most active and exciting season for everyone.

After breakfast every day, we immediately go to the garbage dump to dig for earthworms. We put the fat and big earthworms we dug out into small jars and sprinkle some fine soil on them; then we take them with bicycle spokes. With the ground fishing rod (one end sharpened and bent into a small hook), I picked up the bamboo basket and started a happy day of eel fishing.

Walk gently on the field ridge or channel with bare feet, lean down slightly, and when you see a small hole with smooth traces underneath, stop and look carefully. If you find that the water in the cave is moving up and down, there is probably a greedy eel inside. So he bent down, took out the fishing rod, skillfully put on the earthworm, and slowly stretched it into the hole. The eel will often bite hard and pull the fish in immediately. At this time, it is time to push the fish inward, turn it half a circle, and then pull it out slowly and hard. Never use too much force when pulling, otherwise it will break the fish's mouth and allow the eel to escape. When half of the eel is exposed outside the hole, hold the fishing line with your left hand, and stretch out your index, middle and ring fingers with your right hand to clamp the eel firmly until it is completely dragged out of the hole and quickly throw it into the bamboo basket. This is a successful hook fishing.

But accidents can happen. Sometimes we reached into the hole with full confidence, hoping to catch a big eel, but instead we touched something cold, followed by a scream, indicating that it was bitten by a water snake; even once, my little When his partner pulled out the fishing line, he found a red snake on it. He was so frightened that he quickly threw the fishing line away. This incident made us feel uncomfortable for a while.

At the end of the day, you will gain more or less. There may be more than a dozen, and sometimes there may be only two or three. Most of the caught eels are braised with garlic. In my impression, the braised eel tasted extremely delicious, far better than the fish, shrimp and mussels I got from the river. In that era of scarcity, it was definitely an enviable delicacy.

Unfortunately, after I graduated from junior high school, I went to study abroad. After I started working, I was even more busy making a living, and I never caught eels again. Now there is no chance for fishing. The construction of factories, road construction and the extensive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides have caused wild eels to suffer a devastating disaster, and their numbers are getting smaller and smaller. While modern civilization improves our lives, it also takes away many of our joys and beautiful memories.

Chapter 5: Fishing for eel

Yesterday, the weather was dull and dull. I couldn’t hold it in anymore, so I asked my grandpa to accompany me out to get some fresh air. Grandpa looked at the sky and said to me : "The weather is so stuffy. The eels must have lost their temper and come out of their holes to get some air. Let's go fishing for eels in the ditch!" When I heard that we were going to catch eels, I immediately became excited. My grandfather and I dug up green earthworms that eels like to eat, and tied the fishing hook with cotton thread. In order to prevent the fishhook from falling off, I specially tied a knot. After preparing these, we set off.

The air in the countryside is very fresh, and a breeze blows on my face, blowing away my anxiety and worries. I am jumping and jumping on the mountain path with brisk steps. There are a lot of rice fields in the countryside, so we kind of take things as they come. No, I took the cotton thread and jumped into the rice field next to me, wow! What's going on? It's like I fell into a swamp, and my knees were stuck in the mud. But I soon discovered a problem: rice must have water? Why is there no water in this field? If there is no water, how can we talk about eels? Grandpa gave me a satisfactory answer: "This is called releasing water to dry the fields. The purpose of releasing water is to prevent the rice from 'growing crazy', because if the rice grows 'crazy', it will not produce food in the mature season." So we looked for another I went fishing in a rice field with water. I put earthworms into the field and walked around the field several times, but there was no movement at all. I wondered if all the eels in the field had been wiped away by insecticides. Light.

In desperation, we chose a place with deep water, many weeds, and a relatively remote location to fish. Sure enough, after a while there was fish movement. I lifted the rod excitedly, wow! What I caught was a toad covered with small bubbles. I was greatly disappointed. At this time, it suddenly started to rain. I was just about to go home, but my grandfather caught a slender little eel, which boosted my morale. So my grandfather and I went down to the ditch to catch eels in the rain. Since the water was covered with duckweeds, we couldn't see the bottom of the water, so we had to rely on our feelings. The cotton thread suddenly sank, and I knew there was an eel biting me. I didn't lift the fishing line violently because I was afraid it would break free, so I played a protracted fight with it. When it ran out of strength, I caught it with my other hand. Stay, ha! Another one.

On the way back, I saw a small clear ditch and planned to fish for a while. Grandpa said that there should be no eels here, but I still wanted to try it. After waiting for a long time, there was no movement at all. , it is not my style to end it hastily, so I waited patiently by the ditch. Finally, my hard work paid off, and an extra-large eel couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food and swam over. At first I thought it was a snake, but it took me a long time to come to my senses. Grandpa was also stunned. I saw the right opportunity and fished the snake-like eel ashore. After that, we caught a lot of eels, and also unexpectedly caught some small fish and shrimps. We had another big meal in the evening, and I swallowed hard.

Chapter 6: I will never forget eel fishing

It’s summer vacation, and my father took me to my grandma’s house in the countryside. The next day, my friend Xiaopang next door asked me to go fishing for eels. So, we picked up hooks and plastic bags and went fishing for eels.

In the fields in summer, the sun is like fire, there is no wind, it is so hot! The green rice seedlings drooped their heads listlessly, the frogs croaked and sang desperately, and the loaches were too hot to jump around in the ditch.

We walked on the field ridge, looking for the eel cave. After a while, I found a smooth hole, slightly smaller than the ink bottle cap, and it looked dark inside. So I put the hook with the earthworm on it into the hole. After waiting for about half a minute, suddenly, I felt the hook tremble slightly, so I pulled hard. There was nothing on the hook, not even the earthworm. I don't know where it went. I sat down on the ground frustrated. Little Fatty came over and told me: "Let the eel eat for a while and wait until it gets the hook to its throat before pulling it out." So I put the hook with the earthworm on it into the hole again. After a while, the hook started to move again, and a large section of the wire was dragged in. I learned the lesson just now and waited for a while. When I saw that the hook was not moving, I pulled it out hard and it was empty! I almost fell into the paddy field. "Quack!" The frogs in the field were still shouting, as if they were laughing at me. I was so angry that I knocked down the eel cave with one punch, and muddy water splashed all over my face.

I carefully inserted the hook into the hole again and caught an eel as thick as a finger.

On the way home, I happily said to Xiaopang: To do something, you must have the patience to master the trick. "He smiled too.
