The line was the truth, just not the line from the fish, but the one from the bottom. For this, he had even invested in a set of hooks and leads.
As soon as this was said, the Electric Car Guy suddenly realized!
Of course! The big fish in Yu Hu was a Bigeye Mullet! This creature is a migratory fish that spawns in freshwater. With the river flowing into Haikou nearby, there was no shortage of Bigeye Mullets this season. Who could guarantee that the fish in Yu Hu was the one that broke his line? He had almost been fooled by those two idiots, which made him lose his focus on fishing!
After coming to this realization, he shot a glance at Shi Tian and Wang Ergou, then immediately assembled his rod, attached a sandworm, and cast it right next to Wang Ergou!
Seeing that the Electric Car Guy had steadied his nerves, Calmly smiled slightly and provocatively glanced at Wang Ergou before moving to the other side of Wang Ergou and casting his line again, continuing to fish for his Bigeye Mullet!
Faced with the two-pronged attack from them, Wang Ergou felt helpless! The ocean was so vast; could there only be big fish here? Why did they have to crowd into this spot?
It was clearly impossible to make Wang Ergou leave! He couldn’t back down over pride; how could he show weakness?
As soon as the float sank, he lifted his rod to hook the fish. Indeed, there were big fish here!
Another large Bigeye Mullet! After two rounds of struggle, Electric Car Guy and Calmly had no choice but to reel in their lines!
There was nothing they could do; this fish was unruly in Hai Li, always darting around. Once it tangled the line, they could only wait for Wang Ergou to bring it up before they could untangle it!
Wang Ergou hooked a fish, and Shi Tian also hooked one!
After fishing all day, they finally caught a decent fish!
Looking at the line spinning off the reel, Shi Tian smiled slightly; it was stable now—this time it definitely wasn’t a Bigeye Mullet!
Different types of fish had vastly different ways of pulling on the line and sensations on the rod. While Bigeye Mullets darted around wildly, Tuna fought fiercely but remained more subdued on his rod.
Though strong, it didn’t run amok; it must be good quality without a doubt!
Wang Ergou brought up his Bigeye Mullet. This time he was clever; he absolutely couldn’t let Calmly interfere. He let the fish on the hook struggle as much as possible until it exhausted its last bit of strength before diving into the water with his Control Fish Tool.
When the fish reached the shore, he pulled on the line and clamped down with the Control Fish Tool—another thirty-pound Bigeye Mullet entered the net! This boosted Electric Car Guy’s confidence even more as he hurriedly cast his line toward where Wang Ergou had just hooked a fish!
As Electric Car Guy cast his line, Calmly also cast his. Wang Ergou found himself completely cornered by these two! Helplessly shaking his head, he lifted his rod and turned toward Shi Tian’s side to help him net his fish.
Your rod should be a Shi Ban; you can tighten the drag a bit! Watching Shi Tian play with the fish for a while, Wang Ergou offered a reminder.
Upon hearing Wang Ergou’s words, Shi Tian quickly tightened the drag a couple of notches; his reeling speed noticeably increased.
While Shi Tian reeled in, Wang Ergou stood ready with a net at the side. The line was almost fully reeled in; any moment now it could surface, and he needed to find just the right timing to strike!
As soon as the fish showed its head and he thought about going all out for it, Wang Ergou’s net descended from above with force.
A red spot—almost twenty pounds! That’s a thousand bucks in earnings; you’re treating tonight! After bringing the fish ashore and confirming its size once more, Wang Ergou casually remarked.
The fishing spot was perfect, and catching Bigeye Mullet was thrilling. However, what was the point of it? If things went wrong, one might end up throwing away Hai Li. With that kind of effort, wouldn’t it be better to catch a few Shi Ban instead?
Watching Shi Tian put the fish into the Fish Bucket, Wang Ergou quickly cast his line, hoping to borrow some luck from Shi Tian and see if he could land a big Shi Ban too!
Red-Spotted Grouper wasn’t expensive; if sold to a Fishmonger, it would fetch around ten to twelve dollars. Of course, ordering one at a restaurant would cost at least twenty or thirty—now that was a fair price!
The fish Shi Tian caught weighed just over eighteen pounds. By that calculation, it was worth about a thousand dollars. Isn’t that much better than working?
Hearing Wang Ergou accurately state the price, Shi Tian recalled the fish Bao Gan Ge bought yesterday and asked, “Brother Dog, how much is Golden Pomfret per pound?”
As soon as Shi Tian inquired about Golden Pomfret, Wang Ergou became alert. Did this guy catch a Golden Pomfret?
Catching Golden Pomfret in Sanya wasn’t particularly rare. After all, there had been a typhoon recently, which likely caused many to escape from their farming cages. It wasn’t surprising for Shi Tian to catch a few.
Golden Pomfret wasn’t worth much; farmed ones went for about ten to fifteen dollars per pound. Most caught by the seaside were also likely from farms. However, if they were wild-caught, that would be something special. During the festive season, wild ones could sell for nearly twenty dollars per pound!
Upon hearing about the wild ones being so valuable, Shi Tian suddenly felt like he had been tricked by Bao Gan Ge!
Wang Ergou didn’t specify how big the wild fish were! The price difference between a one-pound fish and a ten-pound fish was significant; if it weighed twenty pounds, the price would be even more astronomical.
Pulling out his phone, Shi Tian found the video of the Golden Pomfret he caught yesterday and showed it to Wang Ergou, holding onto a glimmer of hope. “Brother Dog, is this fish wild or farmed?”
When Wang Ergou glanced at the phone screen, his eyes widened in shock. “Wow! When did you catch this fish? Was it right outside your shop? It’s huge!”
Farmed Golden Pomfret usually hit the market at around two pounds! This one looked close to twenty pounds! Farmed Golden Pomfret didn’t grow this big!
After seeing the fish on Shi Tian’s phone, Wang Ergou suddenly felt that Shi Ban didn’t seem so appealing anymore.
Catching Golden Pomfret was exhilarating; they were strong fighters and had delicious meat with a good market price. The satisfaction of catching them combined with their value made it all worthwhile!
