A squid weighing one or two pounds, and mostly water in its body, which weighs almost nothing after drying, is really nothing to say.
If you want to know how to cook squid deliciously, Bai Yu can have a good chat with you, but he's still in the middle of a competition and doesn't have that much time right now.
Today is the fourth day of the competition, and there isn't much time left. He should focus on the competition.
As Bai Yu cast his line again, his gaze followed the bait as it fell into the sea. Before he could even react, he felt a different sensation on the fishing line.
He had already fished several times today, and he had a certain understanding of how quickly the bait sinks after falling into the sea.
The bait sinks relatively slowly, and the fishing line comes out very slowly as well, something I've experienced before.
But now it's different. He had just cast the bait when the fishing line suddenly started to come out faster.
The speed was so fast that Bai Yu could feel the friction between her fingers on the fishing line, and it felt quite hot.
Then Bai Yu suddenly lifted the fishing rod upwards. What was there to hesitate about? It was obvious that a fish had taken the bait!
As Bai Yu lifted the rod to set the hook, the rod tip bent down, and the fishing line immediately became taut.
All these reactions proved that Bai Yu's judgment was correct; he had indeed caught a fish.
As he lifted the rod to set the hook, he also reeled in the line twice to gauge the size of the fish that had taken the bait.
He then came to the conclusion that the fish that had taken the bait this time seemed to be quite large, and it seemed that it would be difficult for him to handle it if he tried to fight it head-on.
However, as soon as this idea came to him, he rejected it the next second, as if a direct confrontation might not be a bad thing.
The reason he had this idea was that after Bai Yu finished reeling in the line, he felt the strength of the fish's struggle.
Well, Bai Yu felt that this fish was about 30 or 40 pounds, or even 40 or 50 pounds. This size of fish was already beyond the limit that the fishing line could withstand.
However, this guy's resistance was strange. Despite being over 30 pounds, he seemed to weigh only 10 or 20 pounds when he resisted.
This is a bit strange. It's not that this guy doesn't resist, but rather that his resistance is rather weak. He seems to rarely experience this feeling.
He had seen and caught fish that didn't resist after taking the bait; the ocean sunfish was one of them.
But Bai Yu had rarely encountered such a weak fish before. He wondered if there were any traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the ocean who could give this guy some nourishment.
It was because its resistance was relatively weak that Bai Yu changed his mind; it seemed he could try to fight this guy head-on.
The fishing line Bai Yu uses has a tensile strength of 30 pounds, but that doesn't mean he can only catch fish weighing less than 30 pounds.
How can I describe this pulling force? Well, even if a normal 30-pound fish struggles and resists, the fishing line can withstand it.
The fish is indeed over 30 pounds, but the strength with which it struggles is not what one would expect from a large fish, which gives Bai Yu an opportunity to maneuver.
Bai Yu then picked up the fishing rod and tried it out. He gripped the handle of the reel and pulled back the line.
He had only intended to try it out, but to his surprise, with a push from his right hand, he actually managed to reel the fishing line back in.
Moreover, the process was surprisingly easy, without encountering much resistance.
? ? ?
"What's going on? This guy isn't resisting. Does he not feel pain when the fishhook is on him?"
At this moment, Bai Yu had too many questions in his mind, but these questions were not the most important thing. What he needed to do now was to return to the retrieval line as soon as possible.
Since the fish that took the bait this time did not resist fiercely, Bai Yu did not intend to provoke it further. When reeling in the line, he tried to slow down the reeling speed and reeled in the line at a steady speed.
Sure enough, everything proceeded smoothly under Bai Yu's operation, and he quickly retrieved a dozen or twenty meters of fishing line.
Just then, Bai Yu glanced at the sea in front of him, and a brown figure emerged from the water.
The figure was very strange, and because it was a bit far away, Bai Yu couldn't see it very clearly. He could only see that the thing was slightly round.
A round fish, not resisting too much, at this moment, Bai Yu had a guess about this fish.
As for whether this guy is as he guessed, he'll have to fish him up and see for himself to see if it's the species he suspected.
Bai Yu then continued with his original strategy, slowly and leisurely retreating to the front line, focusing on not provoking the opponent and making the opponent's resistance as peaceful as possible.
In addition, there wasn't much fishing line left outside, so he was reeling in the line very quickly. Before long, he had dragged the fish that had taken the bait to the side of the boat.
Then Bai Yu poked his head out to look at the sea, and sure enough, the fish that took the bait this time was just as he had guessed: a ray!
Rays look quite similar to manta rays, but they are not manta rays. Manta rays are called stingrays, and rays are called stingrays.
Of course, in some places, rays are called devil ray, but in Baiyu, rays are simply rays.
The ray that Bai Yu caught was not small overall; its wingspan alone was about one meter.
To Bai Yu, this ray looked quite like a spade, only it was brown.
Looking at the back, the other person's skin seems quite smooth, indicating that the skin has a lot of collagen. If it were cooked and eaten, wouldn't it be full of collagen?
The ray's mouth is located on its belly. If you turn the ray over, you'll see a very funny fish face.
Moreover, every ray has a different face, just like humans. No two people are exactly alike, and no two ray faces are exactly the same.
Bai Yu wasn't quite sure what the ray's face looked like yet; he would have to wait until he got it onto the deck to see for himself.
However, you need to be very careful when getting this ray up; you must not get hurt by it!
