Heuksando Hong-eo Fishing (2013.04.03) Official website: http://home.ebs.co.kr/limit/index.html Heuksando, the largest Hong-eo fishing ground in Korea! Located 92.7km from Mokpo Port, Heuksando currently has 7 boats maintaining the tradition of Hong-eo fishing. The waters near Heuksando are deep, over 80m deep, and have a lot of mud, making it the best place for Hong-eo to live and spawn. In addition, Heuksando fishermen do not use bait to keep the Hong-eo fresh, and they only use hooks to catch Hong-eo. Although the catch was once low, the catch has recently increased due to the crackdown on illegal Chinese fishing boats, and the fishing industry is booming. The work of pulling up a longline with 400 sharp hooks per turn during each fishing operation can lead to a major accident if they let their guard down even a little, so the crew must be on their toes during each fishing operation. The crew of Yeongjinho begins fishing on the sea where danger may strike at any time, through rough waves. Part 1 Yeongjinho is the only Korean crew among the remaining redfish fishing boats in Heuksando. The five crew members, from a 30-year veteran captain to a 4-month rookie, prepare for fishing with the same mindset every time. After loading the fishing gear with thousands of sharp needles and ice to keep the redfish caught in the sea fresh, they are finally ready to set sail. Yeongjinho finally sets sail with the dream of a full catch, and after a 5-hour run, begins its first fishing trip! First, they cast the net for the next fishing trip and begin hauling in the location where the fishing gear was lowered during the previous fishing trip. The crew members gradually become exhausted from the relentless forced march, and even a sudden situation occurs where the fishing net breaks! To make matters worse, the sea, which had been unusual before departure, eventually begins to get rough. Will Yeongjinho be able to finish the fishing trip safely? Part 2 The crew of Yeongjinho struggles with drowsiness that comes with fishing that continues late into the night. However, the longline that they are pulling up with difficulty only catches trash instead of redfish, and the crew becomes even more exhausted. Even the face of the veteran captain with 30 years of experience is not smiling. As if things were not bad enough, an unexpected accident occurs... After a two-hour nap, the fishing begins again. Finally, a huge redfish begins to catch! The second voyage of the sea men who set out to catch redfish with dreams of a full catch begins!
