Around 1 a.m., they were almost ready to give up.
The fishing rod moved.
First, Hao Aiguo's fishing rod suddenly bent, creating an astonishing arc.
Clearly, a big fish has taken the bait.
He instantly perked up, rushed forward, gripped the fishing rod tightly, took a deep breath, and tucked the rod into the top of his belly.
"The pull is so strong, and the fish is huge."
Hao Aiguo's face lit up with joy, and he shouted excitedly.
He quickly adjusted his posture, leaning back to contend with the immense force underwater.
Seeing this, Feng Ye couldn't help but feel happy for Hao Aiguo.
Just as I was about to say something, I saw my fishing rod suddenly bend into an exaggerated arc, as if it were about to break.
A sudden thought struck him: "I've got a big fish biting my hook too."
I quickly ran to the fishing rod, mentally prepared myself, and used all my strength to take the fishing rod down.
So big!
He estimated that the fish weighed at least 200 jin (100 catties).
The two simultaneously engaged in a thrilling battle with their respective giant fish.
Xiao Chen stood between the two, glancing at one and then at the other, ready to step forward and help whoever needed it.
On Hao Aiguo's side, the giant fish's strength seemed inexhaustible, and each pull made him almost lose his balance.
But he gritted his teeth and, with an indomitable spirit, persisted in dealing with the big fish.
Sweat dripped down his forehead and onto the deck, but it did nothing to diminish his fighting spirit.
Feng Ye, on the other hand, also faces enormous challenges.
The fishing rod in his hand seemed about to be snapped by a tremendous force.
But with his rich experience, he skillfully used the techniques of reeling in and letting out the line to engage in a tug-of-war with the big fish.
As time went on, both of them gradually lost their strength...
Meanwhile, the unknown giant fish in the water slowly reached its end.
Finally, after a hard-fought battle, the big fish on Hao Aiguo's side was the first to surface.
It was a huge fish, flat and round like a plate.
Its upper half is blue, its lower half is rose-colored, its fins are bright red, and its body is covered with white round spots. What else could this be but the moonfish that anglers dream of?
Actually, there are many kinds of fish called moonfish.
For example, the filamentous wrasse of the trevally family, and the spectacled fish, crescent fish, and silver pomfret of the spectacled fish family.
However, when anglers talk about moonfish, they usually mean moonfish.
Moonfish are large marine fish belonging to the family Lumiidae, and are widely distributed in warm ocean waters.
Its distinguishing features are a flat body and a forward-protruding mouth, which is small and toothless, and fins without spines.
"Holy crap, a moonfish! It's a huge moonfish!"
Feng Ye shouted in surprise.
"This is the moonfish? It really does look like a round moon."
Upon hearing this, Hao Aiguo's spirits lifted, and he temporarily forgot his fatigue.
The appearance of the moonfish instantly brought the atmosphere at the sea fishing site to a climax.
Even Xiao Chen's eyes sparkled with excitement and curiosity as he stood to the side, speargun in hand, ready to go.
"County Chief Hao, congratulations. This one fish is worth more than all the fish we caught before."
Feng Ye said with great envy.
I don't even know what kind of fish I caught.
I wish it were a moonfish too.
"Yeah?"
Hao Aiguo stared wide-eyed at the large, round fish, a surge of indescribable excitement welling up inside him.
It's out!
We've struck it rich!
If it is truly as valuable as Feng Ye claims, its worth will be immeasurable.
"If you don't believe me, wait a minute..."
"That's not what I meant. I was just so surprised. Xiao Feng, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, how could I have caught such a valuable fish?"
"You're being too kind. You should bring the fish onto the boat first, and be careful not to let it escape at the last moment."
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Hao Aiguo turned the reel to reel in the fishing line, slowly pulling the big fish toward the side of the yacht.
He moved very carefully, afraid that a moment's carelessness would allow this hard-won treasure to escape.
The moonfish struggled unwillingly in the water, creating waves, but could not hide its impending fate of being conquered.
Meanwhile, Feng Ye was not idle either.
As he skillfully reeled in and let out the line to play the fish, he secretly prayed that he would catch a moonfish as well.
Although the probability is small, there is still hope.
The fish he was fighting was bigger, naturally stronger, and its bursts of power were more sustained.
By the time Hao Aiguo pulled the fish to the side and used a crane to fish it onto the boat, he had only managed to reel in half of the fishing line he had released.
Xiao Chen naturally took care of the bloodletting and acid removal work; Hao Aiguo didn't need to do it himself.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked over to Feng Ye: "Little Feng, could yours also be a moonfish?"
"have no idea."
Feng Ye shook his head, then frowned. "But it's very likely not. Moonfish are generally not in groups; they prefer to be alone."
"Oh? Is that so? Is there absolutely no possibility?"
Hao Aiguo still hoped that Feng Yezhong would also be a Moonfish.
"It's not impossible. As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain, unless one is male and the other female..."
“Xiao Feng, this is what happens when you are ignorant and incompetent. The next line after ‘Two tigers cannot share one mountain’ is ‘A good woman does not marry twice,’ not ‘Unless one is male and the other female.’ You’re just talking nonsense.”
"Never mind whether this statement is right or wrong, just tell me, isn't this the logic?"
