"Brother Yu, judging from your expression, that bullhead tuna from earlier must have been quite heavy. Did it weigh over 100 jin?"
Li Shuang looked at Bai Yu's barely suppressed smile and asked a question at the opportune moment.
"How can you catch a 100-pound giant so easily? The bull trevally we just caught was only a little over 94 pounds, which is still a long way from being a 100-pound giant."
To pretend to be something you're not is like wearing fine clothes in the dark!
Besides, Li Shuang asked the question himself, so Bai Yu naturally had to answer truthfully, although his tone was slightly pretentious.
"Wow, that's impressive, ninety-four jin. If you add the fish blood that was drained, it'll be close to a hundred jin."
"If that's the case, Brother Yu, your score would practically put you in first place! It's a good thing you didn't participate in this competition, otherwise, what chance would we have?"
"Hey, you can't say that, Shuangzi. This is only the first day. Being in the lead temporarily doesn't mean we can stay in the lead forever."
Besides, you guys aren't bad either. Look at Ah Sheng and Ah Hai, their fishing is pretty good today, and they've caught about 100 jin by now.
If I hadn't caught this bullhead trevally, I really wouldn't have been as good as those two. It's just that you were a little unlucky, but it's alright, you'll catch up in the next few days.
While chatting with Li Shuang, Bai Hao baited his hook and cast his line again.
For them, it's only a little past 1 a.m., and the night fishing is only halfway done. They still have several hours to go before they can continue fishing.
They fished until 5 a.m., when the eastern sky began to lighten and the sun was about to rise, before they finally packed up their fishing rods and prepared to go back to rest.
"Ah, it's already dawn in the blink of an eye. I've been fishing all night and I don't even know how many fish I've caught. I don't even know who's in first place right now."
After fishing for the last time, Li Shuang put a seven- or eight-pound barracuda into a styrofoam box and complained to Bai Yu and the others.
"If you want to know how much fish you caught, just ask Brother Yu. If you think you caught more fish than Brother Yu, then add a few dozen kilograms to his score. If you think you caught less than him, then subtract a few dozen kilograms."
Anyway, my results should be about the same as Brother Yu's. Brother Yu, how many fish have you caught so far?
Lu Sheng was also reeling in his fishing rod while asking Bai Yu about his catch.
On the entire fishing boat, only Bai Yu's scores are displayed in real time and are also published.
Whenever the white-haired fishermen pack up and stop fishing, a small sign is usually hung on the cabin door, displaying their latest catch results.
At this moment, Bai Yu was holding his phone and calculating, adding up all the fish he had caught that night to get a total.
"298.6 jin, wow, just a little over a jin short of 300 jin. Do you think I should cast another line to make it 300 jin?"
Bai Yu quickly calculated his results: he was just a little short of 300 jin (150 kg), which was all the catch he had made after eight hours of hard work.
The most important catch was three large fish: a bullhead trevally, a longtail snapper, and a brown-banded grouper. These three fish weighed a total of 160-170 pounds. The rest were other fish.
"Brother Fisherman, calm down, let's calm down. The more you catch, the more pressure there will be for us who are participating in the competition!"
Please, please, give us a way to live!
As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, Li Shuang immediately chimed in.
The implication was that Baihu should calm down; his current performance was already excellent, and there was no need to dwell on a small amount.
To be fair, Li Shuang's words were spot on. The more fish he caught, the more pressure it put on others.
Therefore, Bai Yu didn't do anything extra and decided to rest.
Afterwards, the group returned to the crew quarters, washed up briefly, ate something, and prepared to rest.
The timing of their bedtime was a little awkward; breakfast hadn't started yet, but they were sleepy, so they would just have a few snacks and then rest.
The four of them were resting, but for some other anglers, there were still people fishing, and some had just woken up and come out of the cabin to join the fishing.
However, these novice anglers fell into deep thought after seeing the sign hanging on the cabin door that displayed Bai Yu's current performance.
298.6 jin!
Is this a bit too exaggerated? They just took a nap, how did their results become like this? What exactly did they miss last night?
Unfortunately, whether they want to believe it or not, this is the reality: Bai Yu's score has reached 298.6, putting immense pressure on others.
The pressure is immense, especially for those who want to achieve good results and gain recognition in this competition.
For those who boarded the ship this time, regardless of their purpose, if they want more exposure in this competition, they must rely on their performance.
Even the girls among them noticed something: in the eyes of anglers, there is no distinction between men and women, only between anglers and fish.
It's practically impossible for them to get more screen time from Bai Yu through other means. After all, Bai Yu isn't single, nor is he a pervert. Beauty won't work on him.
Like Keke, she's a beauty and fitness influencer. The reason she follows Bai Yu is because of his long-distance running achievements.
Keke had seen Bai Yu's videos of beachcombing and sea fishing before, but the reason she became his fan was because of his achievements at the University Games, that ability to leave everyone else behind.
Then she participated in the fishing competition and successfully secured a spot. She didn't intend to gain much traffic from it; she just wanted to have some fun.
But if you say fishing isn't fun or addictive, that's understandable. Some anglers go fishing every day, and they don't seem to get addicted.
But it was absolutely fascinating, and Keke was deeply captivated by this interesting sport.
Originally, she just wanted to take a photo with Bai Yu and get his autograph. It would be even better if they could film a video together. She planned to spend the rest of the time taking pictures of the scenery on the sea and having some fun.
But last night, after fishing for a while, she caught a grouper in the ocean and was deeply attracted by its beauty.
Then she caught red snapper, red sea bream, and mahi-mahi, some of which were very beautiful, while others were rather unsightly.
But this didn't stop Keke from enjoying fishing, so she got up early this morning to go fishing.
That's right, she was one of those who went back to the crew quarters to sleep late last night. For a beautiful woman, going to bed early and waking up early is essential to maintaining perfect skin!
