Bai Yu stood beside his fishing rod, looked at the fishhook in his hand that was wider than his palm, and shook his head repeatedly.
This fishhook is really big. If a fish bites it and gets caught in its mouth, Bai Yu feels a pang of pain just thinking about it.
Although that's what Bai Yu thought, he was quite fast when it came to baiting the hook. He directly selected a mackerel weighing over a pound from the bait box and painstakingly hooked it onto the hook.
Unfortunately, the yacht stopped very suddenly, and they had only taken out their bait less than an hour ago; the mackerel hadn't even fully thawed yet.
Unthawed mackerel is very hard, so it takes a lot of effort to hook it.
Moreover, he not only had to bait his own hook, but he also had to help Li Xue bait hers, as she was too weak to do so by herself.
Once the bait was attached, Bai Yu tossed it off the side of the yacht, letting it sink to the seabed with the ocean current.
Catching big fish is never an easy task, especially one that requires patience. People who lack patience are better off not going fishing.
Bai Yu has good patience, not to mention he has his wife with him. The yacht also has internet access, so even if no fish bite, they won't be bored.
Moreover, Bai Yu and his group had pretty good luck fishing; this area was rich in resources, with many large fish on the seabed.
We previously threw in several hundred kilograms of mackerel. As long as there are big fish attracted by these mackerel, they will definitely bite the hook.
"Xue'er, there are a lot of big fish in the sea we are in now. I won't say more, but if you feel that the fish that bites the hook is too big, then you must not fight it head-on, otherwise you will easily get hurt."
If you can't handle it yourself, just call me. What kind of relationship do we have? It's only right that you ask me for help.
"I understand, Brother Xiaobai. I won't try to be a hero. If there's something I can't handle, I might call you."
Although Bai Yu had said this many times, Li Xue didn't find it annoying at all; on the contrary, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
After all, it's her husband who cares; they are a married couple.
Hearing Li Xue's agreement, Bai Yu was about to say a few more words, but before he could even speak, his fishing rod started moving first.
The tip of the fishing rod bent down almost instantly, and the fishing line was also emerging at an extremely fast speed, so fast that Bai Yu could hardly keep up.
Before this, when Bai Yu placed the bait at a depth of 300 meters, he had already turned on the drag to fix the depth of the hook.
After all, 300 meters is not the deepest point in the sea they are in. To keep the bait at that depth, they would need to use a drag mixer.
He had the lever fully engaged, almost locking the fishing line completely.
Even so, the fish that took the bait this time still dragged the fishing line very fast.
This alone shows that the fish that took the bait this time must be a big fish, and one that is bigger than you can imagine.
Bai Yu immediately grabbed the fishing rod and jerked it upwards, while simultaneously reeling in the line by pulling it back up a couple of times with the crank handle.
Even if you can't bear the pullback, you can use a locking line to make the hook fit tighter.
But this time, Bai Yu had only just gripped the crank handle with his right hand, and before he could even start retracting the line, he used just a tiny bit of force and immediately let go of it.
"Holy crap, what the hell is this thing? It caught a four-meter-long fish right off the bat? It caught it so easily?"
The force transmitted from the reel was so immense that Bai Yu had absolutely no will to fight it.
The gap is just too huge; we really can't beat them. This thing is too powerful; a direct confrontation would easily result in injury.
"Brother Bai, what did you say? You caught an 800-pound fish?"
Li Xue overheard Bai Yu's complaints and looked at Bai Yu with a surprised expression.
"I'm not too sure either, but the fish that took the bait this time was really big. It should weigh no less than 500 pounds. It might really be that four-meter-long fish."
"You caught it already? Why aren't you using a fishing rod, Xiaobai?"
"What kind of operation is this? This fish is too big. I don't even dare to grab the crank handle. The force is too great. If I try to fight it head-on, I'm afraid my hand will break."
Bai Yu shook his head slightly helplessly at Li Xue's question.
It's not that he doesn't want to operate, but that he's afraid to. Sometimes, catching a fish that's too big isn't necessarily a good thing.
Although Bai Yu wasn't planning to confront this guy directly for the time being, the fish that took the bait this time seemed to be enraged by the stinging sensation from the hook, and it kept trying to dive deeper into the sea.
The deepest part of the sea where Bai Yu and his group were located was about 330 meters. After the big fish came to the seabed, it rubbed against the seabed haphazardly, trying to cast the hook out.
Its actions only stirred up waves of seabed silt, without altering the fishhook in the slightest.
Seeing that this trick didn't work, the creature randomly chose a direction and prepared to swim away into the distance, intending to try a different method to remove the foreign object from its mouth.
Unfortunately, the direction this guy chose happened to be the stern, which was a little unfavorable for Bai Yu.
If this guy swims towards the stern, after he swims a certain distance, the fishing line will inevitably rub against the hull.
Finally, the fishing line and the propeller at the stern might even come face to face, creating a scene where they are intertwined.
If that really happens, it's going to be a bad situation; there's a high probability that the line will have to be cut.
If the line were to break, his losses would be enormous! This is an outcome that Bai Yu cannot accept!
So the moment he saw the guy swimming towards the stern of the boat, he immediately panicked and grabbed his fishing rod, ready to fight him head-on.
"Oh my god, are you trying to run to the stern? You're trying to cut my line! Just you wait, I'll show you what I'm made of!"
Bai Yu then took the fishing rod off the stand, tied the belt on it, and prepared to fight this guy!
It took Bai Yu a minute to tie the belt, but the actual struggle with the big fish lasted only thirty seconds.
It wasn't that Bai Yu didn't want to fight this guy head-on, but he really couldn't beat him. Every time Bai Yu grabbed the crank handle to exert force, the force on the crank handle would directly bounce his right hand away.
He bounced off immediately; he couldn't even hold on for a fraction of a second longer. If he dared to persist, he would definitely strain his muscles.
In thirty seconds, he cast the rod ten times, trying to withstand the attack eleven times, but he couldn't sustain it even once.
Even though he released his grip immediately after exerting force, without any hard-fought struggle in between, his right hand is now incredibly sore.
At the same time, his waist was being pulled by this guy, and it was jerking and very uncomfortable.
At this moment, Bai Yu's feeling about this fish changed again. It was definitely not a big fish weighing five or six hundred pounds, but must be the four-meter-long fish from the seabed.
After all, he had caught fish weighing five or six hundred pounds before, but the pressure he felt was not this strong. Only the thousand-pound bluefin tuna he caught during the competition could bring him this strong sense of pressure.
To catch that 1,000-pound tuna, they resorted to tricks. With the help of a fishing boat, the four of them persevered and finally managed to catch the tuna.
Bai Yu looked at the people on the yacht. The F4 from Haida University were all there, along with eighteen security personnel. Even without the yacht's help, he could kill it in a head-on fight.
Upon realizing this, Bai Yu immediately shouted.
"Ah Hai, Shuang Zi, Ah Sheng came to help me! I caught a big fish, a super big fish, and I can't handle it by myself!"
After Bai Yu called out, Wang Hai and Li Shuang immediately came over, but Lu Sheng didn't come over because he was fishing and couldn't leave for the time being.
"Brother Yu, what's going on? Why do we need so many of us to help?"
"A big fish, a super big fish! I suspect we've caught that four-meter-long fish. I'm not only asking you guys for help, but if you can't handle it, I'll have to ask Jun-ge and the others for help later."
This guy is heading towards the stern, and I'm worried he'll get his fishing line tangled in the propeller. What we need to do now is fight him head-on and change his escape route!
Otherwise, if it really gets tangled in the propeller, you'll regret it!
So we must do it now, and unite everyone's strength to do it together!
