"Holy crap, they really caught a fish!"
As soon as Bai Yu stood up from the deck, his field of vision immediately improved, and with the help of his increased perspective, he could see that his fishing rod was bent.
Moreover, it wasn't just bent; it was also constantly undulating and vibrating, as if something enormous was hanging on the fishing rod.
The scene before us is quite obvious; a fish has taken the bait, and it's very likely a big one.
After making this judgment, Bai Yu immediately rushed to the fishing rod and stared at it in a daze.
The fishing rod was swaying so violently that he dared not remove it from the holder, fearing it might be pulled away if he wasn't careful.
All he could do was turn on the drag on his fishing rod and watch silently from the side.
As the fishing line rolled out of the reel, two hundred meters, two hundred and fifty meters, three hundred meters, three hundred and fifty meters.
When there were only a little over a hundred meters of fishing line left on the reel, Bai Yu couldn't hold back any longer. If he didn't do something soon, the fishing line on the reel would be completely wiped out, and then he would be helpless against this guy.
Since the fishing rod couldn't be removed, Bai Yu decided to have a showdown with this guy on the fixed stand.
As Bai Yu seized the opportunity to grab the crank handle of the reel, he suddenly exerted force with his right arm, ready to wrestle with the guy.
As the fishing rod made a snapping sound, Bai Yu only held off the guy for two seconds before the handle slipped from his hand and started spinning rapidly with the fishing line.
In terms of strength, Bai Yu was utterly defeated, completely powerless to resist.
Fortunately, Bai Yusong released his grip quickly. If he had held on for just two more seconds, his arm would definitely have been strained.
"Holy crap, what the hell did I catch? How can it be so strong? It's going to snap my fishing line!!!"
Bai Yu stared blankly at the reel, at a loss for what to do.
He's tried everything he could, and now he can only leave it to fate.
"Xiaoyu, what's wrong? Are you in trouble? Do you need our help?"
Just then, Wang Hai and Liu Tianyu, who were still having a late-night snack, came over and stood on either side of Bai Yu with their rice bowls in their hands.
"I caught a big fish, but it's a bit beyond my capabilities. I almost strained my right hand just now. Now I can only leave it to fate."
"A big fish? How big could it be? It almost hurt you! How about letting me and Xiaohai try it too?"
"You two can try it if you want, but let me warn you beforehand, this guy is really strong. If you're going to try it later, you have to be careful not to hurt your hands. We still have four days left."
"Don't worry, Brother Yu. If Brother Tianyu can't handle it, I'm here for you. With the three of us working together, how could we possibly lose to a fish?"
"You little rascal, who are you calling incapable? A man can't say he can't. You two just wait and see."
"Wait, wait, cousin, just a moment. I'll go get my midnight snack. Watching others get their comeuppance is really good for watching people eat. Wait for me a bit, I'll be right there."
As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, he quickly walked towards the cabin door, picked up his food bowl, and returned.
Then she raised an eyebrow at Liu Tianyu, as if to say, "You can begin your performance now."
Liu Tianyu didn't hesitate. After placing the rice bowl on the deck, he grabbed the crank handle of the reel, took a deep breath, and prepared to fight this guy head-on.
Exhale, inhale, hiss.
From beginning to end, the entire process took only a little over a second. Liu Tianyu didn't say a word, only making three sounds with his breathing, and then that was it.
"Cousin, is your hand alright? I told you a long time ago that this guy is incredibly strong, but you didn't believe me before. Now you know how powerful he is."
"Thank goodness I let go quickly, otherwise my hand would have been in serious trouble. It's such a pity, such a big fish biting the hook, and we could only watch helplessly. What a shame!"
"Let it be. Anyway, I've caught enough fish today, so one or two more won't make a difference."
"Ah Hai, do you still want to try? It's okay if you don't, just focus on eating your midnight snack."
Although Bai Yu wanted to agree with Liu Tianyu's words about what was a pity, after thinking about his gains on the first day, he felt that there was nothing to regret. His gains today were already good enough.
According to Bai Yu's plan, he was now just waiting for the fishing line in the reel to clear out, and then whether he lived or died would be up to fate.
It would be best if Wang Hai didn't try, because he was afraid that Wang Hai wouldn't be able to think straight and would insist on fighting to the death with this guy, which would be bad if he ended up hurting himself.
However, Wang Hai didn't want to do that. He wanted to try it himself and see just how big the fish that almost injured Bai Yu and Liu Tianyu was, and how it was stronger than him.
Wang Hai then finished the remaining instant noodles in his bowl, went to the fishing rod, grabbed the reel with his right hand, and prepared to cast.
Breathe, inhale, bang, crack crack, snap, bang.
As Wang Hai took a deep breath, he suddenly exerted his strength. With the collision of their forces, the veins on his right hand bulged and his face turned red.
It was obvious that he held nothing back this time, going all out from the start, ready to fight this guy to the death.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. With a snapping sound as if the fishing rod was about to break under the strain, it looked like it was about to burst.
But with a snap, his fishing line gave way first, bursting open with a loud crack.
As for the final bang, it was because Wang Hai was thrown onto the deck by the sudden scene.
Although he had expected that he wouldn't catch the fish, Bai Yu still felt a sense of disappointment when the fishing line snapped.
This is the second fishing line that Bai Yu has lost since he started fishing at sea, and both times it was lost on the same boat.
I caught a big fish on this same fishing boat before, but unfortunately I didn't manage to catch it and instead lost the fishing line that Brother Tongzi gave me.
This situation has happened again. The line that broke was the fishing line he bought specifically later, a line that could easily catch a fish weighing 100 or 200 pounds.
The fishing line has now snapped, which means the fish is at least 200 pounds, and Bai Yu even suspects that it may be 300 or 400 pounds.
After all, Bai Yu had used this fishing line to catch a big fish before, and it was a bluefin tuna that still weighed over 200 pounds after being bled and gutted.
This fishing line held up so well back then, but now it's broken. I don't need to say what that means.
"Sigh! The wires finally broke, but it's okay, let them break, the sooner the better."
Cousin, Ah Hai, my fishing line got tangled too, I'm about to pack up and rest. Are you two still planning to continue fishing?
The white fisherman's fishing line was broken quite thoroughly; it started from the end of the fishing rod, leaving only a few dozen meters of line in the reel.
Fishing line of this quality is basically useless; it won't be useful for catching either big or small fish later on.
"Brother Fisherman, you're not going to fish anymore? Then I won't either. It's getting late, let's get some rest and get up early tomorrow."
"Xiao Hai is right. Anyway, there's still plenty of time, so there's no rush to go fishing."
Besides, the fishing lines we're using are all about the same quality. If your line gets tangled, and this guy comes back and tangles it on both of our lines too, we can't handle that.
When Bai Yu finished fishing, Liu Tianyu and Wang Hai also put away their fishing rods.
Although the fishing was indeed good today, and they might have caught more fish if they continued, they decided to pack up after learning from Bai Yu's experience.
Don't be fooled by the fact that every angler dreams of catching a giant fish; there's a difference between different giant fish. A fish weighing 100 pounds can be called a giant fish, and so can a fish weighing 400 pounds.
However, if you put these two types of fish in front of the same angler, I think that given the limited limits of fishing rods and lines, most anglers would choose to catch the 100-pound fish rather than the 400-pound fish.
The "Fishing Guru Index" refers to a normal person who enjoys fishing and catching big fish, not a brain-dead person who knowingly does the impossible.
After putting away their fishing rods, Bai Yu and his two companions went into the cabin without any hesitation, and then lined up to take a shower and rest.
