Other contestants participate in the competition for the experience or to earn some money.
But for Bai Yu, he was aiming for the championship. No matter what competition he participated in, as long as it was competitive, his goal was always the championship.
In order to achieve better results this time, and to achieve good results through his own strength, Bai Yu did not plan to use Tongzi Ge this time.
Currently, besides checking his daily luck stat, Tongzige's main use for Baiyu is searching for schools of fish.
In addition, Bai Yu himself has a lot of idle luck points that he can use to increase at any time, so it will be relatively easy for Bai Yu to win the championship in this competition.
For example, after the luck value is updated at midnight every night, he only needs to add up his luck value to 100 points. If he does this for five consecutive days, winning the championship will be a piece of cake.
After all, a luck value of 100 points is already a lucky moment that a person can experience. When you go fishing with this kind of luck, even if you don't expect fish to bite as soon as you put the hook down, you definitely won't have to wait too long and you can have a series of good luck.
This has been the case for five consecutive days. I ask you, among the other contestants in this competition, is there anyone who can compete with him?
That being said, Bai Yu did not intend to do so, since winning the championship in this way would be meaningless.
He would prefer to participate in the competition based on his own abilities, so that he could win in a more honorable way.
As for the current luck value, which is updated precisely at 12 o'clock every day, it cannot be removed; it is merely Bai Yu's fortune for that day.
Everyone has their own fortune at the beginning of each day; it's just that Brother Tongzi has personified his luck.
Since his luck stat is no longer applicable, it's already considered fairly fair to the other players.
With the white fisherman casting his line, all that's left is to wait for the first fish to bite.
This time, Bai Yu didn't have to wait too long, since he was only fishing for mid-to-upper-level sea fish, and the fish resources at this depth were quite abundant.
As Bai Yu felt the fishing line move with his fingers, he suddenly lifted the fishing rod upwards to hook the fish that had taken the bait.
According to Bai Yu, the fish that took the bait this time was not very big, probably only about one or two pounds, which is considered a small fish.
Bai Yu wasn't going to be polite to the opening fish of the competition and immediately started reeling in the line.
A fish weighing one or two pounds is powerless against Bai Yu's relentless bombardment. It can only watch helplessly as it gets closer and closer to the surface of the sea until it finally surfaces.
A silvery-white fish appeared on the surface of the sea. This time, the fish that took the bait was a white-scaled fish, also known as a whitebait.
This guy isn't that big; the biggest one only grows to 60 centimeters.
Even the largest sea whitebait doesn't weigh much. After all, the name "sea whitebait" isn't given lightly. It shares a common characteristic with freshwater whitebait: it doesn't take up much weight.
In addition, the number of whitebait is also very large. It is one of my country's important economic marine fish and is widely distributed in the Southeast China Sea.
However, its distribution in the East China Sea is mainly in the southern part of the East China Sea; this creature is a tropical marine fish.
As temperatures begin to drop towards the end of the year, most of the whitebait will gather in the South China Sea, where the temperature is higher.
The whitebait that Bai Yu caught was about 30 centimeters long. Under the light, it shimmered with silver light and looked quite beautiful.
Bai Yu didn't even bother using a landing net for this fish. He simply flicked his fishing rod upwards, and the white-scaled fish flew straight up from the sea towards him.
As the scene shifted, the whitebait appeared in Bai Yu's hand, and he immediately tossed it into the fish box next to him.
He put a lot of crushed ice in the fish box before fishing, and the fish box also has a cooling effect, which is very effective in keeping the fish fresh.
Although the sea bream wasn't very big, weighing at most about a pound, Bai Yu wasn't dissatisfied at all; on the contrary, he was quite satisfied.
After all, there are a lot of whitebait, and they usually appear in schools. Since he has already caught one, there must be other whitebait near this oil well.
Since there is a school of fish here, it's now a matter of efficiency. Among the contestants present, whoever fishes the fastest will be in a leading position on the first day.
Bai Yu then baited the hook again, cast it into the sea, and continued to wait for the next fish to appear.
Just as Bai Yu had predicted, the second cast was cast out again, and before he even started waiting, he heard the sound of a fish taking the bait. The frequency was so fast that Bai Yu was a little surprised.
However, for Bai Yu, the more frequently the fish bite, the happier he is, because that way he can catch more fish and improve his performance.
Then he lifted the fishing rod again and caught the fish that had taken the bait. This time it was another small fish that took the bait.
A minute later, another white-scaled fish was put into the fish box by Bai Yu.
For the next half hour, Baiyu went into overdrive, catching one whitebait after another without stopping.
The contestants on his left and right were completely stunned.
If they hadn't seen that Bai Yu's catch wasn't very big, with each fish weighing just over a pound, and some even less than a pound, they might have tried fishing in Bai Yu's way.
As for now, their target is big fish. Let's wait and see how big fish bites the hook at the bottom.
By then, their catch might be equivalent to a whole box of fish caught by Bai Yu.
Actually, the ideas of the players on either side of Bai Yu are not wrong at all. If they could really catch a big fish, it would indeed be better than Bai Yu catching whitebait.
Of course, this is all predicated on actually catching the fish; otherwise, it's all just talk.
Different choices naturally lead to different results. And these two fishermen, for instance, chose bottom fishing to wait for big fish, right there on their fishing boat number six...
The fishing boats have been stopped for more than half an hour, but only twenty-five anglers have appeared on the deck to fish. Five people haven't even come out yet.
The five contestants' choice likely stems from the fact that it's too late now, and they might as well rest up tonight and continue fishing after dawn.
After all, there's an old saying that goes, "Sharpening your axe won't delay your work." Their current conservation of energy is preparation for fishing during the day.
Bai Yu didn't care about the choices of other contestants. What he needed to do now was to catch all the fish in the ocean one by one and turn them into his own achievements.
Another half hour passed, and Bai Yu filled his fish box.
In that hour, he caught at least thirty or forty whitebait.
The reason it can be so fast is not only because the whitebait bites frequently, but also because the whitebait fishing technique is very fast.
He didn't consider whether reeling in the line too quickly would cause the fish to lose pressure, and after catching whitebait, he wouldn't process them; he would simply throw them into the fish box.
In Bai Yu's view, the white-scaled sea fish, also known as the whitebait, belongs to the category of miscellaneous fish.
Even though this thing is priced quite well, at twenty or thirty yuan per pound, which is much higher than ordinary sea fish, Bai Yu still doesn't think much of it.
The reason is that this type of fish is not very big; a single one weighs at most two or three pounds, and there are very few sea bream of this size.
As time passed, the number of whitebait caught by Bai Yu increased, along with some other catches.
Although there are many whitebait, they also have many natural predators in the ocean.
Besides humans using them as prey, other marine predators also use them as their prey.
In particular, predators that are larger than them will consider them food.
For example, the most frequently seen sea wolf fish is like a hyena on land; it is a lawless creature in the ocean, and any marine life can become its food.
For example, the white fisherman caught several groupers during this period, including various species.
Even mahi-mahi and trevally will eat sea bream.
It wasn't until after midnight, at 00:00, that Bai Yu finally put away his fishing rod for a short while.
When they saw Bai Yu reel in his line, the first to breathe a sigh of relief were actually the players on either side of him. They had been watching Bai Yu's performance for over an hour before, and it had been incredibly exciting for them.
The fish were coming one after another, with other species occasionally mixed in. Several times, the two of them wavered and wondered if they should try a different fishing method and learn from Bai Yu.
After all, the feeling of catching fish one after another is just too amazing. They might not even encounter this situation when fishing for freshwater fish on land. If they were fishing for sea fish and caught fish one after another, they could brag about it for a long time.
However, while they were watching Bai Yu fish, they also caught some fish. Although the catch wasn't much, each fish they caught was quite large.
Their total harvest was about 30 to 40 jin (15-20 kg). Although they couldn't compare to Bai Yu's, the two of them were still quite happy.
Bai Yu fished for over an hour, as if he weren't there to fish, but rather to buy goods from the sea.
After all, he catches fish so frequently that most players can't compete with him.
