Chapter 1050: Chapter 1031: The Fishing Spot Wasn’t Quite Right
“Damn, we arrived just in ti, the fish is hooked! Quick!” Wen Ge called out as he saw the angler catch a fish and hurriedly strode towards the fishing spot.
It was clear that this angler had so technique, quickly adjusting the reel drag after striking the fish, and all you could hear was the continuous sound of the fish running and the line being pulled.
Just by listening to the speed and approximate force of the line being pulled, Yue Feng made a preliminary judgnt that the fish wouldn’t be too big; a truly big fish pulls hard and escapes powerfully after taking the bait.
“Xiao Hui, how is it? Is the fish big?” Wen Ge asked excitedly.
Xiao Hui nodded repeatedly, “It’s not small, definitely not small, the line is being pulled like crazy! I don’t even dare to control it back!”
Yue Feng smiled calmly and said, “Take it slow, no rush to bring it up, safety first!”
“This fish should be bigger than the one that got away two days ago. The force is too strong! Damn, it’s pulling the line again!”
Xiao Hui controlled the fish with excited agitation, and as a new round of forceful impact began, he habitually made minor adjustnts to increase the resistance.
Seeing that at least sixty percent of the line was still stored in the line cup, the angler began to panic. Yue Feng assessed that this angler’s ntality was slightly lacking.
But since he wasn’t familiar, Yue Feng didn’t say anything, just watched quietly.
After watching so tense monts for over ten minutes, they finally brought the fish in.
As the fish ran out of strength and surfaced, the previously boastful Xiao Hui fell silent.
A four-and-a-half-pound wild carp turned belly-up and floated on the water.
“Damn, such a little guy, making such a fuss like it’s end of the world? According to you, the fish from two days ago wasn’t even as big as this?” Wen Ge was a bit embarrassed and couldn’t help but complain.
Yue Feng laughed and diated, “The water is deep, wild fish have good stamina, feeling strong is normal. Look at this beautiful wild carp, with its red fins and golden scales!”
“Sorry for the embarrassnt, Master Yue Feng! Xiao Hui is my apprentice, he’s new to fishing and not very skilled!”
“No worries, wild fishing doesn’t have any masters, Wen Ge, you needn’t belittle yourself! Have we replenished today’s bait spot? What did you use?” Yue Feng continued to ask.
Xiao Hui said, “I just replenished with over ten pounds of corn this morning! The snails haven’t been delivered yet, I’ve made arrangents with the market owner. They need so ti to clean them, then they’ll be delivered!”
Upon hearing this, Yue Feng shook his head, “Clean them? No need to clean, using muddy ones for bait is best, but they must be alive! Call him back, tell him to select them properly, discard the dead ones, and deliver them with mud!”
“Master?” Xiao Hui didn’t know Yue Feng, so he looked up at Wen Ge instead.
Wen Ge gave his apprentice a disapproving glance, “Look at your lack of attention, this is Fishing King Yue Feng, the one who advanced to Special Level Competitive Fishing Master in one competition! Follow his instructions.”
“If you don’t have anything else these days, stay here and learn. Master Yue Feng’s skills far surpass mine; learn so real stuff!”
“Oh, yes! Hello, Master Yue! I’ve heard of your glorious feats!” Xiao Hui quickly greeted.
“Haha, hello. We’re peers, I’m not much older than you, don’t keep calling ‘master’ all the ti! Just call by my na!”
“Uh, okay!” Xiao Hui responded but didn’t know what to say next.
“Why are you just standing there, give up the fishing spot and watch. You’re usually smart, why beco clueless at crucial tis? No wonder your teacher says you’re a blockhead!”
Very soon, the fishing rod was handed to Yue Feng.
After receiving the Jiao Fishing Rod, Yue Feng glanced a few tis, slightly furrowing his brow.
“Using slip float?”
“Yes, cotton thread slip float! The structure underneath is sowhat uneven, bumpy!” Xiao Hui explained honestly.
Yue Feng was sowhat familiar with the cotton thread slip float style but found it sowhat troubleso for this kind of fishing situation. When the bait spot is nearby, it’s entirely possible to be simpler and more convenient.
“Kid, bring our equipnt bag from the car!” Yue Feng called out, and the kid obediently went to the parking spot to retrieve the equipnt bag.
Without saying anything, Yue Feng removed the cotton thread slip float and its position in no ti, directly finding a suitable set of space beans to start from the top, and soon threaded the space beans and began adjusting the float to find the bottom.
Even though he’s using a wheel-equipped Jiao Fishing Rod, Yue Feng’s strategy was entirely normal Taiwan Fishing.
After threading the beans, he re-adjusted the float, worthy of ntioning the positioning of this float.
Yue Feng didn’t even attach the leader, directly set the float to a neutral point, then attached a set of No. 4 leaders, and the float adjustnt was complete.
Next is the detailed task of finding the bottom!
Yue Feng’s way of finding the bottom was different from others; he first tested positions around the area before finding the bottom.
Seeing the experintal results of underwater terrain differences, Yue Feng slightly furrowed his brow.
“What’s going on? Is there an issue with the bait?” Wen Ge asked curiously upon seeing Yue Feng’s expression.
Yue Feng shook his head smiling and continued expanding the range front and back while saying, “The bait spot structure is too complex. The surrounding height difference exceeds twenty centiters; I’ll try to find a relatively flat area. To attract fish, it’s better to have a flatter area with a fluctuating depth transition.”
Indeed, after simply expressing his thoughts, Yue Feng found that the underwater terrain beca much flatter just half a ter forward, with almost over one square ter around it being flat.
With such a simple search, combined with previous ntions that this place had been a good fishing spot with many big catches before, Yue Feng knew that the novice little apprentice Xiao Hui probably didn’t carefully find the bait spot location, missing the optimal bait spot by about half a ter.
However, to avoid Xiao Hui being scolded by his master, Yue Feng understood and didn’t say anything, just slightly adjusted the water depth position after realizing, using space beans for fine-tuning, and completed the bottom search.
“To catch big-head green carp, you need more bait; so, Xiao Hui, help bring a box of my bait from the car, and we’ll add so more! Kid, accompany him there!”
“Okay, sure!” Xiao Hui responded enthusiastically and followed the kid over to fetch bait.
Minutes later, Xiao Hui returned with a full box of old jar corn from Yue Feng’s collection.
Yue Feng didn’t hold back, roughly tore open ten packs, totaling twenty pounds of bait, and poured it into a large basin. He casually took so soil from the riverbank, mixed it, and shaped it into fist-sized bait balls.
“Are we replenishing the bait spot now? No need for hand-throwing; we have a bait boat!” Wen Ge called out, and soon brought out an eighty-centiter long bait boat from the car.
He placed the bait boat on the ground, opened the hatch, which could hold at least seven or eight pounds of bait at once. Yue Feng packed it full without hesitation, then Wen Ge personally operated the remote control to bring the bait to the float mark spot.
With a press of the hatch button, a large amount of corn was precisely placed into the bait spot.
