94: Chapter 94: Making a Fortune 94: Chapter 94: Making a Fortune In Yue Feng’s view, the reasoning isn’t like that at all!
The reason humans are called humans is because they are distinctly different from lower animals; humans have higher spiritual pursuits, value pursuits, and the foresight to protect fishery resources.
Seeing this, soone’s bound to start cursing.
They didn’t have all these pursuits when they were selling crucian carp, and now what’s this crap about pursuits!
Isn’t this just a blatant double standard and pandering for popularity?
It’s really not!
Catching a few dozen pounds of big fish isn’t the sa concept as a trip out catching a few dozen pounds of small crucian carp.
Fishing in freshwater close to ho is different from trekking long distances to deep-sea fish.
Freshwater fishing costs are lower, most people can afford it, unlike those who depend on the fish catch to subsidize so expenses for ocean fishing, so they have the luxury to be capricious.
In natural water bodies, each big fish takes five, ten, or even more years to grow.
During this ti, they have to face many dangers before they can survive in the rciless natural world.
For species like the black carp, they must reach a certain age before their gonads develop fully.
If all the big fish are caught, there will be no source of fry, and then there will be no fish to catch in the future.
This is irreversible damage to the fishery resources.
For those smaller fish, reproduction is a lot simpler.
The Fisherman takes a little more from them, and it doesn’t cause too great an impact on their ecological status.
Beyond these basic common sense facts, more and more anglers now see fishing not just as a basic need for livelihood, but as a hobby.
They pursue the process more, and the actual catch has beco secondary.
Drowning Fish: “Yue Feng did great, worth learning from for the vast majority of Fishern!”
Cockroach886: “One of my dreams is to catch and release a 30 pound big fish on my own, the broadcaster has preempted my dream!”
Little Shrimp: “I also support catch and release!”
Support catch and release 1
Support catch and release 2
…
Support catch and release 103
As you can see, although there are so discordant voices in the livestream, the vast majority of fishing enthusiasts can understand the behavior of releasing big fish like Yue Feng does.
On the contrary, those who declare they’ll unfollow because of catch and release, hardly a few actually go through with it.
Yue Feng’s livestream followers keep increasing, the few unfollows are barely significant.
After releasing the fish, Yue Feng wiped his hands and plopped down onto the Fishing Box.
After more than an hour of back and forth, even with Brother Liu lending a hand, Yue Feng was exhausted to the extre.
“Phew, release complete!
Let him go back to his mom.
We’ll co find him again when we have another chance to play!” Yue Feng said, letting out a breath.
“This move was slick!!!”
“Responsible, principled!!”
“So that’s how you catch big fish with a Hand Rod, witnessed the whole process, an eye-opener!”
“Slip knot, the tool for slippery fish!
Learned sothing, I’ll also get one.
Been fishing for a long ti and hardly encountered big fish.
Watching the livestream, even if a big one bites, I’d hardly be able to reel it in!”
Seeing that a fan ntioned the slip knot, Yue Feng found his cue and cleared his throat, speaking, “Seeing that soone in the live stream brought up the slip knot, if the target fish is big, you definitely want to prepare a slip knot!
If you want to smoothly bring the fish in, having a slip knot gives you so operating space!”
“The host’s way of retrieving the line while reeling in the fish was so strange, though.
The fish obviously stopped running in the end, so why keep leaving ten to twenty ters of line to play it slowly?
And another detail, after lifting the rod, you controlled the fish by lowering the rod, but why later when the fish struggled and tried to escape, you let go of the slip knot instead of using the thod of lowering the rod?”
There are indeed discerning people in the live stream, and the friend who asked this question may not be an expert in fishing, but they definitely have keen observation skills, noticing many details that most people overlook.
Yue Feng enjoyed interacting with fans like this.
After seeing the question in the public chat, he began to explain, “Actually, when battling big fish with a freshwater hand rod, a slip knot isn’t always essential!
If your line is tough enough, and your rod is strong enough!
You can also confront the big fish head-on!
This way, the ti spent fighting the fish is greatly reduced!
The reason I was so careful is that the line setup was slightly suboptimal, facing such a monster-sized fish I wasn’t confident, that’s why I kept leaving so wiggle room at the beginning, not going head-to-head with it!
You could interpret it as being cautious or even call it cowardice, if you like!
As for lowering the rod, that was also a gradual probe, confirming that the fish had burnt out most of its fighting spirit, before making that move!
If you’re not so confident in your fishing skills, don’t blindly imitate!
Likewise, the reason why I didn’t lower the rod later on is that the fish got spooked as it ca up towards the surface and went on a mad dash for its life.
At that point, it was unwise to continue confronting it head-on; the slip knot was used to resolve the last surge.
The fact that the fish flipped belly-up shortly after also corroborates this point!
To sum up, the joy of landing a big fish is actually all about judging the situation and adapting on the fly!
All actions are adjusted based on judgnt, and everyone can get the gist of this approach, which could help with your own fishing in the future!”
“This talk is loaded with practical insights!”
“Real·practical advice shared!
Much better than those so-called masters who just brag and share nothing!”
Don’t Ask Who I Am sent a Rocket!
Watching the Wind and Clouds sent a Beer doodle!
Kitty Loves Fishing sent Lollipops×1314!
…
A series of donations crazily flashed across the channel.
From start to finish, Yue Feng never asked for any gifts, but there were still a lot of viewers who more or less lined up to donate.
Yue Feng glanced over, and damn, the top of the leaderboard had already donated close to 500 bucks, today’s stream had raked in nearly 2000 dollars in gifts.
“Thanks to all the big brothers on the leaderboard for your support!
The top three ranked brothers, please DM your address and phone number, I’ll send you an extra sample of Legendary Corn.
It’s getting late, that’s all for today’s live stream, see you all next ti!!”
Ding!
Based on the comprehensive rating of today’s live stream, you’ve earned an additional 18,600 Lottery Points!
Goodness, due to going viral today, catching a big fish, and several other factors, I got over 18,000 extra points.
Plus previous task rewards and system bonuses, Yue Feng now has over 45,000 Points.
The stream ended, and it was already past four in the afternoon.
Yue Feng discussed with Old Liu and the others that it was ti to pack up the equipnt and head back to camp.
Setting up camp took quite so ti, and packing up was just as cumberso.
Just one thing, if resting and eating were comfortable, then packing equipnt was equally painful.
Everyone quickly organized the equipnt and supplies they had brought, sorting them out, and then took turns carrying the gear back to the car, where Liu Fengnian packed it into the trunk of his modified pickup truck.
