'Five-star red...'
As the song "Singing for the Motherland" played in the crew room, Bai Yu immediately opened his eyes. This was the ringtone he had used for several years.
As the alarm clock rang, it meant that it was already 2 a.m., a time when most people were already asleep.
"Ah Hai, Shuangzi, Ah Sheng, wake up! It's almost time, let's go fishing."
Bai Yu got out of bed and then woke up Wang Hai and the other two. The four of them, looking a little confused, walked out of the crew room and onto the outdoor deck.
After being blown by the salty sea breeze, my previously dazed mind immediately cleared up, and I walked towards the stern of the ship with renewed vigor.
The sea at night is quite different from the sea during the day. During the day, the sea may be calm, but at night the sea breeze and waves are quite turbulent.
Especially the sound of waves crashing against the ship, the deafening crashing sound, and the splashing water all highlight the dangers of the sea.
However, no matter how turbulent the sea was, it could not dampen the enthusiasm of Bai Yu and his companions for fishing.
Besides, it's just being washed by seawater, it's not a big deal, it's a trivial matter.
After all, Bai Yu and the others were wearing windbreakers and life jackets on top, so a small wave was no problem for them.
Besides, no matter how big the waves are, it doesn't affect their fishing at all.
After all, they fish at a depth of more than 100 meters below the surface, where the sea is exceptionally calm. No matter how big the waves are on the surface, they cannot affect the conditions on the seabed.
For this fishing trip, Bai Yu used the same equipment as before, and the bait was also a large squid weighing over a pound. He put it on the hook and threw it into the sea.
Bai Yu was even more excited about this fishing trip than the one he took earlier that night, because he had checked his luck panel when he woke up.
After midnight, his luck value for the day was refreshed. Today's luck value was much higher than the luck value in the first half of the night, reaching a high of 72 points, far exceeding half.
On October 1, 2018, Beijing time, Bai Yu's luck value reached 72 points, more than double the luck value in the first half of the night.
He caught a 180-pound naked tuna in the first half of the night, and he was even luckier in the second half of the night. Wouldn't he reap an even more precious harvest than the naked tuna?
In this situation, shouldn't the fisherman have high hopes for the next fish that will bite? What if it's a huge bluefin tuna?
In that case, a single bluefin tuna could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is equivalent to an average person's annual salary.
Just as Bai Yu was filled with fantasies about his catch, he suddenly felt the fishing rod vibrate in his hand. Although the vibration was not strong, he definitely felt it.
Because of this feeling, Bai Yu immediately brought her wandering thoughts back and faced the reaction of the fishing rod with full attention.
The tremor just now was likely because some fish were interested in the squid on the hook and were just testing the bait's reaction.
Sure enough, only a few seconds after the vibration, he saw his rod tip bend sharply downwards, and the fishing line was shooting out at an extremely fast speed.
The speed surprised Bai Yu, but he reacted immediately, lifting the fishing rod sharply with both hands, seizing the opportunity to hook the fish as fast as he could.
As for removing the fishing rod from the holder, Bai Yu has no such idea for the time being.
The fishing line came out so fast this time, which clearly indicates that the fish that took the bait this time is a big one, at least bigger than the dogtooth tuna we caught before.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, the white fish needs a fixing frame to add an extra layer of protection and prevent the fishing rod from slipping out of his hand.
After all, no matter how big or strong this fish is, it can't just pull the fishing rod off the alloy holder, can it? Who does it think it is, a whale?
After Bai Yu finished stabbing the fish, he immediately turned on the deflector. Although he didn't want to fight this guy head-on, he could still make things a little more difficult for it with some auxiliary equipment.
After activating the drag, Bai Yu tried lifting the fishing rod, and then he discovered a harsh truth: the guy's strength was a bit too great.
Bai Yu originally guessed that the fish that took the bait this time would be quite large, but not too outrageously large, at most within the range of 200 jin.
However, after he lifted the fishing rod, his idea completely changed. Bai Yu felt that the weight had definitely exceeded 200 jin, and the excess was quite large.
"Ah Hai, have you caught any fish yet? If not, pack up your rod and come help me fish. I think I can't handle this guy by myself!"
Bai Yu's ability to handle a fish weighing over 200 pounds is not something he can't do alone, but rather something he can't handle in a short time.
To catch a fish weighing over 200 pounds, aside from big fish like the sunfish that are easy to catch, other big fish will take at least two hours, or even longer.
Therefore, if Bai Yu wants to win this battle quickly, he must recruit more people.
Bai Yu and Wang Hai are partners in fishing and beachcombing at sea, and they share profits. Therefore, Bai Yu feels no pressure at all when asking Wang Hai for help.
Just then, Wang Hai hadn't caught any fish either. After hearing what Bai Yu said, he immediately reeled in his fishing rod, took off the squid hanging from it, and went to Bai Yu's side.
"Brother Yu, you're really lucky! We've only just woken up and you've already caught a big fish?"
"It's alright. If this thing wasn't so big, it would take too much time for me to fish for it by myself, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you for help."
We've already cast out over 200 meters of fishing line. We'll engage it around 500 meters. Ah Hai, you're stronger than me, so you're in charge of the first wave. Hold off the initial onslaught!
"Don't worry, I'll definitely hold off this first wave for you, and I promise I won't let this guy pull off even a single bit of fishing line."
Wang Hai patted his chest and assured Bai Yu that he had taken Bai Yu's place, went to the fishing rod, and placed his hands on it.
With my left hand on the rod and my right hand near the reel handle, I was ready to unleash my power and take on this guy head-on.
"Ah Hai, there's no need to be so strict. My fishing line is long enough, so you can operate with confidence later. If it can't withstand the pressure, that's okay too. Just make it a little trouble."
Seeing Wang Hai patting his chest and making a promise, Bai Yu immediately offered a few words of advice. He was afraid that if he didn't say something, Wang Hai might actually fight this guy to the death.
Putting aside whether Wang Hai can defeat his opponent, even if Wang Hai wins in the end, it will be a Pyrrhic victory that will exhaust most of his strength.
The fishing line Bai Yu used this time was a full 1,000 meters long. He had already let out 500 meters, and there were still 500 meters left. There was absolutely no need to fight this guy to the death.
As the fishing line spiraled outwards, Wang Hai would occasionally grab the rod and pull it up to remind the creature in the sea that there was still a hook on it, and if it wanted to break free, it would have to keep running.
When the fishing line reached 480 meters, Wang Hai, who was constantly watching the reel, immediately seized the opportunity, grabbed the crank handle of the reel, and then, with his waist and body in perfect harmony, he used all his strength to prepare to fight this guy!
Under the collision of their forces, the fishing rod and line were immediately pulled into a straight line, and the line was taut, with the fishing rod making a creaking sound from time to time.
Bai Yu was all too familiar with that sound; it was the sound of a fishing rod struggling under immense pressure when it was being pulled hard.
Despite its seemingly frail appearance, this fishing rod actually has excellent pressure resistance; a fish weighing two or three hundred pounds wouldn't be able to break it.
