My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 171 Qing Gan

"If we encounter a school of fish during the competition, do you think we'll have an advantage?"

Zhou Miao's words silenced Yu Muzhou.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he knew that his luck was really bad, and it seemed that all his good fortune had been invested in business.

Just then, Wang Yong seemed to be woken up by the noise and came out from another small guest room.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou Miao, I think I hear a lot of birds chirping outside."

"Yes, hurry up and wash your faces. I've spotted a big school of fish. Everyone, let's go fishing!"

Knowing that this was a rare opportunity, the three quickly went to the deck, picked up their fishing rods, and began fishing.

This spectacle doesn't require baiting; Zhou Miao's use of artificial bait is just right.

The lure was thrown into the water, and the sound of it hitting the water immediately attracted the attention of several fish nearby. On the surface of the water, the two people could clearly see several dark shadows rushing towards the hook and lure; the fish had already reached the surface.

The next moment, with three whooshing sounds, the three fishing rods on the boat caught fish almost simultaneously.

Yu Muzhou was overjoyed. The speed at which he caught the fish broke his career record, and who knows, he might even break the record for the number of fish caught today.

The fish's impact was so strong that it caught him off guard.

Yu Muzhou has been training frequently lately to avoid making a fool of himself again when he was fishing for big fish on a distant fishing boat.

So even if the fish had a strong impact, he could still steadily lift the fishing rod and play the fish while maintaining a steady breathing.

Wang Yong, who was going out to sea for the first time, also had his eyes opened wide.

Having been at sea for over two years, this was the first time he had ever witnessed such a grand spectacle.

But he usually catches small fish, so he doesn't have any other equipment.

Sure enough, the fish had barely escaped when his fishing rod snapped with a crack, and the fish vanished instantly from the hook.

Wang Yong stared blankly at his fishing rod, feeling heartbroken!

This fishing rod cost him over two hundred yuan, but it's broken today.

Zhou Miao was also shocked, never expecting such a thing to happen.

"Ah Yong, I have a thicker, stiffer boat pole. Go look for it in the cabin."

"Use mine, my rod is more comfortable. Ah Yong, you catch some for me, I'll go get you the rod."

I don't know how big the fish is, but it's very strong and not easy to catch.

Yu Muzhou soon got tired, so he asked Wang Yong for help and took a breather.

"Okay, Brother Zhou." Wang Yong couldn't care less about the broken rod and lost fish anymore, and quickly went over to take over.

This is something that needs to be done after participating in the competition, and today is a way of getting used to it in advance.

Seeing this, Zhou Miao stopped paying attention to them and focused on fishing.

Fish are easy to catch on the surface of the water; they appear on the surface in no time.

However, the fish had not exhausted its energy and was particularly restless at the surface of the water.

The fish was over half a meter long and looked to weigh at least ten kilograms.

"So it's five yellowtail amberjack, no wonder there's such a large quantity!"

Yu Muzhou placed the fishing rod next to Wang Yong and saw that Zhou Miao had almost pulled the fish to the side of the boat. He then took the gag and walked over, recognizing the fish in the water.

"Five-striped yellowtail? Isn't that just green kumquat?"

There are mainly three types of yellowtail in China. Zhou Miao had previously researched online to identify the red amberjack.

Since it was his first time catching this kind of fish, he might not be able to recognize it directly, but he would immediately know its scientific name if I told him.

"Yes, it's Qinggan fish. The sashimi of this fish is just as good as the yellowfin tuna, and it's really fun to catch. Great, I'm going to have a great fishing trip this afternoon."

Yu Muzhou, this seasoned angler, may not have caught many fish, but his hand is still very steady.

After the fish was pulled to the side of the boat, he timed it perfectly, hooked the fish, and swung it into the water.

They hooked the moving green amberjack and then lifted the fish up.

"Go ahead and bleed yourself out, mine should be coming up soon!"

Yu Muzhou shoved the gag into Zhou Miao's arms and quickly returned to his fishing spot, taking the fishing rod from Wang Yong.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yong first went to Zhou Miao to ask if he needed help. When Zhou Miao said no, Wang Yong quickly picked up the fishing rod that Yu Muzhou had given him and started setting up the line.

He wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to make money, no matter how honest he was.

Zhou Miao used a dagger to cut open the fish's main artery, then pulled out the water pipe under the side of the boat and stuffed it directly into the fish's mouth to flush it.

This fishing boat must be quite expensive, and it has all the necessary equipment, including a machine to convert seawater to freshwater, so you can use the freshwater on board as you please.

After rinsing the fish blood clean, Zhou Miao picked up the fish and threw it into his fish box lined with crushed ice. Then he picked up the grapple and went to Yu Muzhou's side.

Sure enough, his fish had been pulled to the surface. After waiting for two minutes, the fish was forced to come to the side of the boat, and the hook in his hand easily hooked it.

The fact that the three people caught fish at different times actually made it easier for them to cooperate and help each other, and everyone could catch a fish.

Zhou Miao also refused to help with the bleeding. He returned to his fishing spot, picked up his fishing rod, and cast the iron bait in an arc through the air before it fell into the water with a splash.

The splashes on the sea surface were just small ripples, but they made a big commotion to the fish in the water.

Upon discovering it was a small fish, just like before, other fish nearby immediately rushed towards it.

Even seasoned anglers who never catch anything can get a steady stream of fish in this kind of weather.

The three people on the boat then had a great time fishing, taking turns catching fish one after another.

Zhou Miao didn't even realize how many fish he had caught before his fish box was almost full.

That's the downside of big fish; they take up too much space.

Moreover, Yu Muzhou's fishing boat is for recreational use and does not have a refrigeration compartment.

The sun was blazing, and there was no tarpaulin on the boat to cover us.

Since that's the case, let's try to see if there are any large ones below the school of fish.

Catching big fish takes time, but the overall profit is far greater than that of small fish, which conveniently avoids the awkward situation of not having a box to hold the fish.

Zhou Miao changed his fishing line and switched to a larger jig to prevent the bait from being intercepted before it sinks.

As before, the jig bait attracted the attention of the fish as soon as it was thrown into the water.

A large Qinghai fish, weighing over ten kilograms, was nearby. I tried to swallow it whole, but found that I couldn't. The fish was also very tough, and I couldn't bite into it at all.

I shook my head and tried a few times, but it was too long and too big, and it got stuck in my throat, so I had no choice but to spit it out.

The bait, having just gained its freedom, was swallowed in half by another fish.

The result was the same; the fish quickly vomited it up.

The iron plate bait sank slowly and "bumpily," but fortunately, the small green taro that had been surrounding it did not continue to follow.

The sinking of the iron plate bait naturally attracted the attention of some large Qinghai-Gansu fish below.

Several Qinggan fish, each over a meter long, rushed forward, but suddenly a "dark horse" appeared from the school of fish.

It had just crossed the entire school of sardines when it burst out and spotted an unknown small fish in front of it, which it swallowed without hesitation.

Such a simple thing caused it to suffer.

huh~

Once he was sure the fish had taken a bite, Zhou Miao immediately set the hook.

The moment he lifted the rod, the pull of the two forces instantly bent the fishing rod into a large bow, and then he felt the enormous force transmitted through the rod.

"Haha, I didn't expect there to actually be a big shipment!"

Yu Muzhou glanced at him: "Don't be too happy yet, be careful it might be a shark."

"Pah, pah, pah! You can't catch a big fish yourself, so don't curse me like that just because you're jealous!"
