Tying on a sinking minnow, Ah Cheng adjusted the drag of the spinning reel, then with his left hand, he cast the fishing rod, and the minnow drew an arc before landing with a "thunk" near the three alligator gars.
After allowing the minnow to sink to the bottom, Chu Mingcheng raised the fishing rod slightly and began to reel in with his right hand on the spinning reel's handle, occasionally twitching the tip of the rod.
This technique is called "jerking," which makes the minnow dart frantically like a frightened little fish, attracting the attention of carnivorous species more easily.
Soon, Chu Mingcheng retrieved the minnow and cast it out again.
Lure fishing is just like this, constantly casting and reeling in, unlike pole fishing where one simply waits for a bite after baiting.
The constant casting and jerk reeling of the minnow, along with a 10% catching chance, quickly caught the attention of the nearby alligator gars.
Chu Mingcheng had practiced casting several tis and beca more skilled, casting again, and the minnow landed just right on the water surface about twenty or so ters ahead, closer to the position of the alligator gar scanned by the pictorial guide.
Seeing soone fishing here, so of the passersby who had been watching the beauty dance, as well as the temporary security guards specially hired by the park, all gathered around.
Of course, the beauties who had finished their shoot and noticed the crowd shifting this way also followed out of curiosity.
However, before they could react, there was a "splash" and the water suddenly churned, revealing a ferocious-looking fish to everyone's view.
"Damn, an alligator gar!"
"Aweso, so many people have fished for two days and didn't catch one, but this guy managed to do it in just a mont."
"Actually, so people caught two earlier, thought there were none left, didn't expect there were still so hidden over here."
One thousand yuan appeared before their eyes, stirring up discussion among the crowd, so envious, after all, that money ca easily!
Chu Mingcheng couldn't care less about them, he hurriedly braced the fishing rod with his right hand and began the side pull, starting to tug with the alligator gar.
Lure rods are light, and the feeling of pulling is completely different from pole fishing, it felt like pulling the fish with his bare hands.
But a fish weighing four or five jin isn't so easy to catch, especially a fierce alligator gar, Chu Mingcheng could only tug back and forth, waiting for it to tire before reeling in quickly.
The lure rod was stiff enough, not bending full circle, only emitting a "squeaking" sound from the tension.
Fortunately, the alligator gar wasn't far from shore, just over twenty ters away, and given the significant mismatch in strength, it was pulled to the shore in just five or six minutes.
An enthusiastic onlooker imdiately picked up the landing net Chu Mingcheng had placed on the ground and scooped up the struggling alligator gar.
If Chu Mingcheng had to do it by himself, he probably would have to play the fish for a few more minutes until it got tired, but with help, it saved him a lot of effort and ti.
"Thank you!"
"No problem at all, it's my first ti seeing this thing, really curious," said the friendly older man, waving his hand and placing the alligator gar on the lawn.
Chu Mingcheng put down the fishing rod and took out a bleeding dagger from the toolkit and stabbed toward its forehead.
However, with a "hiss," the dagger only left a white scratch on its forehead.
Not only did it not harm the fish, but the piercing also caused it to struggle and thrash furiously, opening and closing its large mouth as if threatening the crowd not to co close.
"Shit, its forehead is really tough!"
"I've seen a video before; foreigners have to use a cutting grinder to open up the scales of an alligator gar."
"No wonder they can't be released; black fish and the like are re minions in comparison!"
The beauty who was playing the zither just now blinked her big eyes and pulled the beauty who had been dancing, saying, "Sister Luoluo, is this an Alligator Gar? It looks so fierce, and its mouth is like a crocodile's."
"Yeah! So people are really unethical. The Alligator Gar has no natural predators in these lakes. If we don't get rid of them, I bet it won't be long before there are no other fish in this lake." The beauty called Luoluo looked furious, obviously knowing quite a bit about Alligator Gars.
"What? All the fish in the lake would be eaten up? That's a bit too exaggerated, isn't it?" The zither-playing beauty seed very surprised.
At this point, Chu Mingcheng, who had to move because of the Alligator Gar's thrashing, happened to face them, and she just glanced over subconsciously.
But with that one glance, she was hooked; this man was more than just a little handso!
She automatically ignored the one with the net, her mouth slightly agape, staring blankly at him.
It wasn't just her; her two companions weren't faring much better either.
Chu Mingcheng seized the opportunity, held down the Alligator Gar with his left hand, then stabbed into its eye with a dagger.
But the Alligator Gar struggled fiercely, and its body was very slippery, so it took him several attempts to successfully kill it.
He wiped the splashes of water from his face with his arm and unexpectedly discovered that quite a few won around him were staring at him, including two great beauties.
One skilled with her hands, the other with fair legs, whom he had just seen, so he greeted them with a nod and a smile, full of charm.
"Not bad, Ah Cheng, you actually managed to catch one." Just as the two great beauties were slightly embarrassed and shifted their gaze away, Zhang Wei, who had noticed the commotion long ago, finally arrived.
Picking up the dead Alligator Gar felt like holding a thousand yuan, making him extraordinarily excited.
"Take this one to the person in charge to exchange for money, and bring soone here while you're at it. I'll continue fishing; I saw two more just now." Zhang Wei's arrival was tily; Ah Cheng had been thinking about calling soone!
"Got it, I'm on it." Zhang Wei was decisive and imdiately went with the security guard next to him to the person in charge for the money.
As for whether the person would refuse to pay, he wasn't worried. There were originally more than three Alligator Gars in this artificial lake, and the people who had caught them before had all been paid.
He had been fishing here all day and had seen it happen.
Chu Mingcheng continued to fish, and a few of the Fishing n, seeing his success, started fishing nearby as well, about twenty ters away.
He didn't say anything when he saw this, as the chance of catching after killing the second Alligator Gar had increased to 20%, and the remaining two Alligator Gars would naturally bite his hook first.
Sure enough, by the ti Zhang Wei returned with the person in charge, Chu Mingcheng had already caught the remaining two Alligator Gars.
Once you find the right spot, hooking these creatures really isn't difficult.
No need to ntion using lures or live bait, even using pig kidneys or liver as bait would get them on the hook quickly.
After dealing with the three Alligator Gars and successfully obtaining three thousand yuan, Chu Mingcheng imdiately changed his destination and headed for Upper River Park.
Before leaving, he made a point of looking around at the crowd and noticed the two great beauties had left; he felt sowhat regretful—why don't modern beautiful girls know how to take the initiative? Wouldn't love co knocking if they did?
Ever since his first breakup, Chu Mingcheng had actually t quite a few girls.
Perhaps his first girlfriend had set his standards high with her beauty, turning him into soone fixated on looks.
So, he had been set up on a few blind dates since then, and many girls, seeing how handso he was, approached him on their own initiative, but sadly there was no spark.
Yet, today he had encountered two he felt a connection with, especially the dancing beauty, who surely had many moves and poses up her sleeve.
