"Ah...Is that so? Brother Wang?"
Behind Wang Shanhai, Li Cheng and others scratched their necks embarrassedly.
No wonder their fishing rods broke so easily, it turns out there is such a thing as this?
“Alas…” Wang Shanhai sighed heavily: “Forget it, forget it. I’ll start by making the fishing rod. You can follow me and learn.”
"Now, go get me some utility knives and some nylon ropes."
"Okay." Li Cheng and others nodded.
Soon, the multi-function knife and nylon rope were handed to Wang Shanhai.
Wang Shanhai played with the multifunctional knife for a while and nodded secretly in his heart.
This multi-purpose knife has a very obvious thick blade structure, which is obviously designed to facilitate chopping small branches.
I guess Ren Yan has already thought of the possibility of making a fishing rod.
And the toughness of nylon rope is definitely not low.
Combining these two, it is not difficult to make a simple fishing rod.
"Come, follow me." After adjusting the multi-functional knife to a suitable state, Wang Shanhai waved his hand and asked Li Cheng and others to follow him.
Then he started to walk around, and soon he stopped beside a tree that was neither big nor small:
"This tree is not very old, but its branches are just thick enough for us to hold in one hand, and it is still growing, so its resilience is at its best."
"If you want to find a suitable fishing rod in the wild, this type of tree is the only one besides bamboo."
As he spoke, Wang Shanhai took a knife and quickly cut off a branch. He then scraped off the leaves and branches on it and shook it in his hand.
There was a sound of strong wind whistling.
"Remember, you must choose live wood. Dead wood cannot support the fish's strength at all."
"Before using it, you must bend it first to let it temporarily adapt to the curved shape. Only in this way can you better exert its toughness when fishing."
"At the same time, don't forget to carve some patterns on the guard position. This is mainly to increase friction so that you don't drag your hands at critical moments."
While explaining, Wang Shanhai was handling his fishing rod.
Li Cheng and others nearby followed suit and quickly cleaned up the small tree.
In the live broadcast room, netizens simultaneously observed three minutes of silence for the little tree.
Encountering such a group of people who can fleece the tree, this little tree is really under pressure that it shouldn't be under at its age...
After all the students had processed the branches in their hands, Wang Shanhai took out the nylon rope and started making fishing lines:
"In theory, fishing line should be much stronger than the current nylon rope, but for fishing in rivers, a rope of this strength is enough."
"Remember, when there is no spinning reel, the length of the fishing line is definitely not the longer the better, nor the shorter the better."
"The longer it is, the more energy you might waste when catching the fish."
"And the shorter it is, the more likely you are to not catch any fish."
"So, the length is usually between 2 and 2.5 meters, especially in small rivers and ponds like this, where the water is not very deep. As long as it can reach two-thirds of the water, it is enough."
"If you are in a large lake or ocean where you need a long pole, 5 meters is the most conservative length."
Based on his many years of experience, Wang Shanhai began to teach patiently and persuasively.
For a moment he even thought that he might be quite suitable to teach these things.
On the side, Li Cheng and others, under Wang Shanhai's instruction, followed Wang Shanhai's example and tied the fishing line to the fishing rod.
And a small groove was specially made on the fishing rod.
In Wang Shanhai's words, this groove is designed to prevent the fishing line from falling off.
They had never thought about this before, but now it seems that their fishing rod was just a firewood stick.
Now this fishing rod with a long line, a slight bend and a slightly upward hook has a bit of the image of a "sharp weapon".
"Okay, okay, now, I'll teach you how to fish~"
After seeing that all the students had finished making their fishing rods, Wang Shanhai hurriedly led the students back to their previous position.
Afterwards, he used a multi-purpose knife to dig out some earthworms, leaving a few of them, and threw the rest into the river by Wang Haishan.
Seeing this scene, Li Cheng and others were a little confused. The earthworms were good enough to be used as bait, so why did they have to be thrown into the water? "No, Brother Wang, there are too many earthworms. There is no need to throw them directly into the river."
"Tsk, you guys don't know how to fish at all." Wang Shanhai said disdainfully, "We were making so much noise just now that we scared away all the fish around here."
"We need to use these earthworms to lure them over here so that we can harvest them later."
"This is what fishing means by waiting for the rabbit to come to you, you know?"
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. The most taboo thing when fishing is being impatient. Now all of you should find a spot nearby to cast your hooks, and then just quietly wait for the fish to bite."
After Wang Shanhai finished speaking, he stopped talking and sat on the ground waiting for the fish to bite.
Seeing this, Li Cheng and others kept silent. After throwing the fishing hook into the river, they looked at the water surface expectantly.
Sure enough, a moment later.
Attracted by the earthworms, the fish that had disappeared before swam over and quickly shared the earthworms.
And then he started looking around, as if he wanted to have another full meal.
Soon, I found the earthworm above my head.
Li Cheng and others' heartbeats accelerated instantly. It was the first time they encountered a fish that took the hook so quickly. Their hands began to clench the fishing rod involuntarily, wanting to pull the fish up immediately after it took the hook.
However, at this time, Wang Shanhai shook his head slightly at them, signaling them not to be impulsive.
At the same time, a fish also bit Wang Shanhai's hook.
Wang Shanhai nodded calmly to Li Cheng and others, pointed his finger downward, and signaled them to pay attention.
Then, he calmly took the fishing rod and started playing with it.
Sometimes it moves forward, sometimes it moves backward, but never upward.
And the range is not that big.
In the river, the yellow fish seemed unable to break free from the hook for a while and could only swim along the hook.
After about two or three minutes, the fish finally stopped limply.
Let the fishhook move you without resisting.
It was not until this time that Wang Shanhai lifted the fishing hook swiftly and successfully caught a bright yellow fish, with indescribable ease.
Li Cheng and others on the side also began to light up their eyes. They were not so casual when fishing before.
Seeing the puzzled looks of Li Cheng and the others, Wang Shanhai naturally knew what they wanted to ask, and then he spoke calmly:
“This is the most basic operation of fishing.”
"Walking the fish."
