The story revolves around the adventures of a young protagonist who serves as a member of the fisheries patrol in San Francisco Bay, tasked with protecting the local fish populations from illegal fishing. With themes of conflict, bravery, and moral dilemmas, the novel introduces vibrant characters like the protagonist and his fellow patrolmen as they engage in action-packed encounters, particularly with Chinese fishermen. The opening of the novel sets the scene in San Francisco Bay, describing the challenges faced by the fisheries patrol, including the dangers posed by illegal fishing practices. The narrator recalls his experiences as a sixteen-year-old skilled sailor assigned to protect the bay's resources. Activities become tense as the patrol embarks on a mission to confront Chinese fishing crews, leading to dramatic encounters filled with immediate danger.
