Lin Yang, who hadn’t caught a single fish in over two hours, was still calmly casting his line.
During the process of priming his spot earlier, he hadn’t used his special catfish rice bait but had instead used ordinary bait bought from the market.
After re-baiting for over two hours, just as he had cast his rod out again, he held onto it with both hands, seemingly ready to strike at any mont.
The caraman behind him noticed this movent and imdiately beca alert, even moving in closer to capture his actions in a close-up shot.
The viewers in the live stream began to wonder when they saw this scene.
"What’s happening? Could it be that Master Lin is about to catch a fish?"
"That seems unlikely, this guy has been at it for over two hours without catching a fish, I bet there isn’t even a fish in his spot."
"I’m telling you, never doubt Master Lin’s skills, or you’ll be proven wrong."
While the viewers were discussing, Lin Yang’s float suddenly dipped below the water.
Without rushing, he gripped the fishing rod tightly in his hands and after waiting two seconds, he swiftly struck!
Direct hit.
Whoooosh—
The clear sound of slicing water imdiately followed and, via the microphone next to the cara, it was clearly heard by every viewer in the live stream.
"Oh no... did he really catch a fish? It’s over; we’re going to be proven wrong."
"Way to go, Master Lin, I knew he couldn’t possibly co up empty."
Under the gaze of tens of thousands, maybe even over a hundred thousand viewers, Lin Yang smoothly lifted the rod high and began fishing securely.
This ti, he used a giant nine-ter rod, which almost guaranteed that no fish could escape once hooked.
About five minutes later, a white carp weighing over ten pounds was successfully brought to the surface and pulled to the shore by Lin Yang.
He skillfully stood the rod up with one hand and scooped up the big fish with a net in the other.
Lin Yang’s catch imdiately caught the attention of the local TV station organizers, as he was arguably the most popular contestant in this competition, and his movents were sothing many viewers were interested in.
But due to his earlier lack of catches, the main video feed had rarely focused on him, and only on the small screens for his team of three could his actions be seen.
Now, however, the main channel’s broadcast turned to Lin Yang, accompanied by the female host’s comntary: "2 hours and 25 minutes into the competition, contestant Lin Yang has finally caught his first fish. He is the last contestant to do so, and we are eager to see how he proceeds...."
The main video feed continued to follow Lin Yang, and Li Xiaopeng, sitting next to him, showed a smile: "Cousin, have you finally gotten started?"
"Not started, it’s on now," replied Lin Yang with a smile.
His response was fully captured and broadcast to all viewers by the main cara.
"It’s on now, what does that an? Wasn’t he fishing all along?"
"I think he’s about to start showing off."
"The guys at the neighboring Lotus Pond already nearly filled their fish hold, and they didn’t show off like this."
"If anyone can show off, it’s Master Lin, suffering the harshest setbacks and braving the boldest claims."
As the viewers heatedly debated whether he was indeed showing off,
Lin Yang once again calmly baited his hook and cast his line under the main video feed.
After casting, everyone saw on cara as he extended his palm and then bent his fingers one by one, apparently counting silently "one, two, three...."
When he reached five, he suddenly gripped the fishing rod tightly with both hands and yanked it upward!
Whoooosh—
The familiar sound of the line cutting through the air began again, and his large fishing rod bent into a deep arc.
"Did he really catch a fish just counting to five?"
"Are you kidding , is there soone underwater hooking fish for him? How can it be so precise?"
"This is unbelievable, he just caught a large white carp less than a minute ago, and now another?"
As the anglers discussed, Lin Yang quickly reeled in the fish, and in less than 5 minutes, he had it ashore.
Under the video feed, the size of the fish was shown; it was a big flower head carp that seed to weigh about 20 pounds.
In just under 15 minutes, he had caught two fish, adding up to more than thirty pounds in total, an amount that could compete with a dozen of other people’s catches.
"Aweso indeed, this man surely has so skills; it’s just too bad he started late. There’s already more than half of the ti gone, winning seems unlikely, but at least he has shown his strength."
"Master Lin is incredible, catching two big catfish in succession, it’s just that the gap is a bit too big unless he can keep at it continuously."
Lin Yang placed the fish into the keepnet, and then once again he cast his line casually.
After casting, as before, he stretched out his hand and began counting silently "one, two, three...."
When he once again reached five, he quickly gripped the rod with both hands and lifted it upward.
Suddenly, the familiar whooshing sound of the line cutting through the water sounded again, and the fishing rod bent into a big arc.
This ti, many viewers watching the match were completely astounded.
"Catch a fish on five counts? He must be cheating."
"This is ridiculous, it’s definitely rigged, there must be soone underwater hooking fish; they should stop fishing and let the divers co up now."
"I want to know how much they pay per day to hang fish, I want to apply...."
While many viewers doubted whether there was soone underwater hooking fish at Lin Yang’s spot, he caught his third fish.
