With the help of the lucky fishing rod, the three of them soon had fish biting the hook as soon as the bait hit the water.
Thanks to the X-ray glasses, Chen Zhiyao was the first to catch a fish.
Moreover, judging from the degree of bending of the fishing rod, the fish she caught was probably the largest.
However, the father and son next to them were no less impressive; their fishing rods were also stretched out of shape.
These three big fish were swimming wildly underwater, pulling the fishing reel so hard it made a whooshing sound, and almost tangling the fishing lines together.
Fortunately, Grandpa Chen had the foresight to tell the three of them to stand further apart and not to huddle together.
About 20 minutes later, Chen Zhiyao was the first to catch a fish, a wavy grouper weighing over 7 pounds.
Immediately afterwards, Grandpa Chen and Chen Weiqiang pulled the fish ashore at the same time.
The father and son both caught pearl grouper, and they were about the same size, around 6 pounds each.
The father and son glanced at each other's fish and then childishly started comparing them.
They were all secretly plotting to catch an even bigger fish so they could overpower the other side.
The father and son had long been used to Chen Zhiyao's incredible luck during this period, and they tacitly excluded her from the competition.
Chen Zhiyao, ignored by everyone, looked at the two with a resentful expression. They didn't even include her in their game; they were clearly jealous of her.
The fish below weren't very big to begin with, and the noise from the three of them playing with the fish was really loud.
By the third round of fishing, the fish below were either caught or scared away.
Chen Zhiyao caught a wavy grouper weighing over 4 pounds this time. It wasn't very big, but it was just right for her family to eat.
This is a perfect opportunity to cook one fish in multiple ways.
In the few seconds it took to remove the fishing hook, she had already arranged the medium-sized grouper.
Grandpa Chen and Chen Weiqiang were still walking the fish, which looked like big ones.
Seeing that the large dark shadow below had disappeared, Chen Zhiyao simply reeled in her fishing rod and beamed as she tallied up her catch for the day.
The bucket of live fish she brought was already full, and the fish that arrived later were all kept in fish baskets.
Today she caught grouper one after another, all of them were grouper.
One cloud-patterned grouper, three wavy grouper, and two green grouper, and they were all big ones.
It's no exaggeration to say that the 4-pound wavy grouper we just saw was the smallest.
After taking stock of her catch, Chen Zhiyao also checked on her grandfather and father.
The old man's bucket contained a pearl grouper and a green grouper, both about the same size, weighing over 6 jin (approximately 3 catties).
Chen Weiqiang's situation was similar; he also had two groupers, one pearl grouper and one wavy grouper.
At this moment, Chen Zhiyao's stomach made a gurgling sound.
I took out my phone and saw that it was already 1:30.
She hadn't noticed it while fishing, but now that she had some free time, Chen Zhiyao felt incredibly hungry.
Luckily, she brought an apple when she came over and ate something beforehand, otherwise she probably wouldn't have had the energy to go fishing.
She had just finished packing her fishing gear when the father and son caught a fish.
Grandpa Chen was the first to pull the fish up; it was a large bass weighing nearly 10 pounds.
Although Chen Weiqiang's fish was a bit smaller, it was more expensive; it was a seven- or eight-pound wavy grouper.
The father and son had been fishing all morning, and they caught some big fish. By then, they were so tired that they could barely lift their arms.
After removing the fishhook, the two collapsed onto the ground, too exhausted to even speak.
Seeing that both of them were exhausted and that she herself was also sore, Chen Zhiyao suggested:
"Why don't we keep the fish in the fish basket first, and then move the catch to the fishing boat after we've eaten and rested?"
Grandpa Chen was originally worried about his precious possessions, but he was just too tired.
It's quite a distance from here to the kayak area.
Grandpa Chen thought to himself, "It seems I'll have to arrange a small stroller next time."
Chen Zhiyao felt that the medicine to enhance physical fitness should be arranged as soon as possible, but she also had some hesitation.
If this medicine is given to someone in the family, will they notice anything wrong?
At this moment, the little dream in her mind spoke up to remind her:
"Tangtang, you can let them eat it in batches, gradually, so they won't notice."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhiyao's spirits lifted:
"Good idea. And the fact that you're saying this means that the potions in the system can be given to family members, right?"
Last time I asked her, she was all mysterious and wouldn't tell me. Now she's finally let it slip, hasn't she? Chen Zhiyao smiled like a little fox.
“I didn’t say anything.”
After saying this, no matter how Chen Zhiyao tried to tease her, Xiaomeng remained silent.
Back on the ship, Chen Weiqiang took the initiative to prepare a few black eagles and a small bass.
Grandpa Chen was also picking and washing a bunch of bright green cabbages.
Although the kitchen was a bit crowded, everyone was doing their work in an orderly manner.
Chen Zhiyao started steaming the rice, and then prepared to stir-fry the bok choy on another stove.
With many hands making light work, a simple lunch was prepared in less than half an hour.
Steamed sea bass, steamed black sea bream, and a large plate of stir-fried bok choy with pork cracklings.
After a busy morning, everyone was hungry, and the big pot of rice that Chen Zhiyao had steamed was eaten clean.
Chen Zhiyao's appetite has also increased considerably without her realizing it.
The fishing was incredible this morning. Right after lunch, the grandfather, grandfather, and grandson excitedly returned to the spot where they had been fishing that morning.
Grandpa Chen and Chen Weiqiang sat down without saying a word and started fishing with great confidence.
However, after Chen Zhiyao opened the X-ray glasses, she found that there were almost no fish below, and the ones that were there were all small fish weighing one or two pounds.
She wondered if they had caught all the big fish that morning, because she wandered around the island but didn't see any large dark figures.
When she returned, the father and son had only caught a few rock bream weighing three or four ounces each.
Without any big fish, Chen Zhiyao didn't want to move anymore and simply sat on a small stool playing on her phone.
By this time, all the shrimp brought in the morning had been used up.
The bucket used for bait now only contains a few octopuses that Chen Zhiyao picked up while beachcombing that morning.
Without the prawns, the father and son had to cut the octopus into several small pieces and then hang them on the fishing hook.
Perhaps because octopus wasn't as popular as shrimp, the father and son were catching fish much slower.
Nearly 20 minutes later, Chen Weiqiang caught another rock goby, but this time it was smaller, weighing at most two ounces.
While removing the fishing hook, Chen Weiqiang couldn't help but complain, "The fish aren't biting well this afternoon; they're all rockfish."
Chen Zhiyao said half-jokingly, "We caught more than a dozen big ones this morning. I guess all the fish in the vicinity have been caught, or they were scared away."
"It's not that easy to catch all the fish. There are a dozen or twenty anglers fishing on the breakwater every day."
Grandpa Chen didn't believe it, thinking there must be other big fish nearby.
"I think Tangtang makes a lot of sense. Although there are a lot of people on the breakwater, they are all empty-handed. They may not even catch as many fish as we did today."
Then Chen Weiqiang put his hands on his hips and laughed triumphantly:
"Hahahahaha..."
