Now Chen Hong no longer wastes time playing the fish; she simply pulls the fishing line back in forcefully and soon pulls three fish out of the water.
He casually picked up the landing net beside him, scooped it up, and with one swipe, he had scooped all three fish onto the boat. He put them on the deck, turned around, squatted down, and began to unload the fish.
He casually tossed the fish one by one into the live fish hold, then casually baited them with live bait, cast the line into the sea, and continued fishing.
The set of movements was swift and efficient, leaving Zhou Yi, who was standing next to him, stunned.
Zhou Yi glanced at his fishing rod, which was still in motion, and asked Chen Hong hesitantly, "Chen Hong, don't you ever play the fish before fishing? Aren't you afraid the fish will break the line and get off the hook?"
While reeling in the fishing reel, Chen Hong said to him, "The line breakage is caused by the main line and leader being too thin or of poor quality. You can rest assured about the quality of my fishing tackle; you can even catch tuna."
If I have to play such a small fish, it would be a waste of my high-end fishing gear. Wouldn't that be a waste of over ten thousand yuan?
Getting the fish off the hook is even easier. If the fish hasn't taken the bait too deep, you can just carefully pull it to the side of the boat, and it will still get off the hook eventually.
If you're confident you're strong enough to outmaneuver a fish in the sea, why waste time trying to catch it? Just pull it up, isn't that enough?
Of course, my idea may not be suitable for you. For ordinary people like you, fishing is about enjoying the fun of playing the fish and fighting with the big fish.
We fishermen just want to catch more fish and make more money, so naturally, our goal is to catch as many fish as possible quickly.
As they were talking, Chen Hong pulled up a line and caught three fish in one go: a bass, a red snapper, and a grouper.
Zhou Yi looked thoughtful, his eyes fixed on Chen Hong's slender arms, secretly comparing his own arm strength with Chen Hong's.
I feel that he might have a lot of trouble lifting a 20 or 30 jin fish with one arm. The key is that the landing net is more than 6 meters long, which extends the point of force. If his arm strength is not strong enough, he won't be able to lift it!
While he hadn't even caught his second fish yet, Chen Hong had already hauled nine fish onto the boat. This speed and efficiency were truly unmatched by the average angler.
No wonder I heard she's a great fisherwoman; she's bought a house and a car with her fishing earnings alone. Faced with Chen Hong's fishing skills, Zhou Yi had to admit he was impressed.
Although he would occasionally accompany his uncle and father fishing during holidays, they would always go fishing on inland rivers or reservoirs, and they could only catch two or three fish a day.
If my uncle and father knew that there was such a fishing technique as Chen Hong, they would definitely stay forever once they arrived.
On Monday, he shook his head and secretly warned himself that he must not reveal this matter to them, lest he get into trouble.
He didn't want Chen Hong to have to deal with these people in his family, as it would disrupt the peaceful life of the mother and child.
These family members have nothing to do after retirement, and as people get older, their skin becomes thicker.
If they find out about Chen Hong's situation, they'll definitely sneak off and try to cling to her. It'll be difficult to get them back home then.
Now the two old men are obsessed with fishing every day, searching for fishing spots all over the suburbs around Beijing, and frequently visiting several large reservoirs and rivers nearby, but their catch is not even enough to buy cigarettes.
Fortunately, both elderly men are retired military officers with guaranteed pensions. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to afford the gas money for driving them around, and they would have squandered their entire fortune sooner or later.
The inland freshwater areas are severely polluted; there aren't enough fish for these two old men to catch. Even younger anglers don't have much of a catch.
Besides, these two old men in their sixties and seventies are old and frail. Even if they occasionally catch a big fish, they can't catch it. They are typical examples of people who are bad at fishing but have a big addiction.
To make the two old men happy, their family members gave them special support.
Young people will buy all kinds of high-quality fishing gear for them whenever they see it outside, just to please them.
They've worn so many fishing rods into a patina that they've never managed to get a single fish from their catch at home.
Thinking of his two old men at home, Zhou Yi couldn't help but laugh. They used to be decisive and efficient in the army, but after retirement, they became as childish as children, bickering and making a fuss every day. They were having a pretty exciting retirement.
Zhou Yi suddenly thought about his future. If he married Chen Hong in the future, he would learn to fish from her.
From then on, this ocean became his own private property. After retirement, he could enjoy a life of leisure, holding a big fish and showing it off all over the streets.
Sigh! Considering that I still have a long way to go before retirement, I should work hard while I'm young so that I can enjoy a leisurely retirement in the future!
Zhou Yi decided to take it seriously and carefully observe how this expert, Chen Hong, fished.
It's good to learn more; when I get back, I can give some pointers to the two veteran anglers in my family.
When the second fish was pulled up, it turned out to be a sea bass, weighing over three pounds. Not bad, it was the biggest fish Zhou Yi had ever caught.
Wearing gloves and holding a fish gripper, he carefully removed the hook and, imitating Chen Hong, threw the bass into the live fish hold.
I also went to Chen Hong's toolbox, picked out a set of hooks, replaced the original leader hooks, and prepared to try to see if I could also catch two or three fish at once.
