After more than half an hour, Feng Ye lost interest.
He's been catching mostly ribbonfish; he's caught over twenty of them, weighing more than 100 pounds.
As for its value, it's only a few dozen yuan.
He's not out here for fun, he's here to make money.
He wanted to try a different fishing spot, but seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, he hesitated to bring it up.
He pulled up another one-meter-long ribbonfish, sighed, put the fishing rod aside, and prepared to take a break.
Just then, Cai Guoqiang excitedly shouted, "Big fish! I've caught a big fish! It's so strong, it's definitely not a ribbonfish!"
Feng Ye turned his head and saw Cai Guoqiang gripping the fishing rod tightly with both hands, leaning back, trying to resist the pull of the fish.
The fishing rods bent into bow shapes and began to shake violently, the fishing lines taut and buzzing as if they were about to snap at any moment.
"It really is a big truck."
Feng Ye muttered something and quickly stepped forward. "Don't pull too hard. Follow the fish's rhythm when reeling in and letting out the line. Play it for a while and exhaust its strength."
He had already figured it out: these three people had fishing experience, but not in the sea; they were freshwater fishers.
In essence, there is not much difference between the two. With a little guidance, one can quickly get the hang of it.
However, it's relatively difficult to encounter big fish when fishing in freshwater. Usually, you can just pull and tug hard to bring the fish up, and you hardly need to play it.
Sea fishing is different; there are many large fish, and it's relatively easy to encounter them.
One pound of fish requires ten pounds of strength.
The technique of playing a fish is especially important; pulling too hard will only result in the line breaking and the fish escaping.
"Xiao Feng is a fishing expert. He has caught fish weighing hundreds of kilograms. You can't go wrong listening to him."
Qin Aijun quickly offered a reminder.
He didn't even care that he had caught a fish on his own fishing rod, and ran over to join in the fun.
Cai Guoqiang nodded, took a deep breath, and, following Feng Ye's instructions, began to skillfully reel in and release the fishing line to deal with the fish's resistance and prevent it from getting off the hook.
The others also gathered around to watch the spectacle, curious about its size and species.
The boatman, Xiao Chen, was experienced and did the same job on the boat. He held the landing net and waited for the fish to come out of the water, ready to scoop them up.
Not long after, a golden figure flashed across the surface of the sea, reflecting a dazzling light.
However, it disappeared in a flash and then disappeared back into the water.
As a result, no one could tell what kind of fish it was.
There are only a handful of species that can grow to this size and be golden in color.
Among these are several rare species with extremely high value, such as the large yellow croaker and the yellow croaker.
