Pingtou Ge, I can't help but make a fuss about this. The honor of our Sea Fishing Faction is at stake, and we can't just sit back and do nothing, can we? With a sly grin, Da Gui Wang cranked the Electric Reel to its maximum setting; this fish should be quite substantial.
Pingtou Ge, you have no idea how frustrating these past three days have been for us! We’ve been drifting at sea for three days, catching Ribbonfish and Squid at night, but during the day, we hardly had any bites. Just yesterday, we finally hooked a big Shi Ban, but before it could reach the boat, it was robbed by a Sea Wolf!
As Da Gui Wang complained, the sea immediately echoed his grievances.
Speaking of big fish, we’ve actually caught some!
Hearing this, Pingtou Ge was taken aback. You guys, a bunch of novice Fishing Masters with an inexperienced captain, managed to fish for big fish?
When it comes to Sea Fishing experience, the most seasoned among us are Wang Ergou and Lobster. However, they have experience fishing Yu Jing but haven’t actually caught any Yu Jing!
The day before yesterday, Lobster caught a massive fish that weighed at least four hundred pounds! But they just let it go when it was close to the boat! Reflecting on that scene from two days ago, the sea spoke slowly.
Over four hundred pounds? And you let it go? Did you catch a shark or some other protected species? As the sea spoke, Pingtou Ge’s interest was piqued.
After so many years of fishing, he had never caught anything that big. How could these novices catch one just by taking a trip out?
It wasn’t just over four hundred pounds; it was probably six or seven hundred! Boasting about his great feat, Lobster immediately chimed in beside Da Gui Wang: Pingtou Ge, have you ever caught a Mola Mola? That feeling is simply exhilarating!
The weight claimed by fishermen is often hard to believe. When Lobster mentioned seven or eight hundred pounds, Pingtou Ge merely chuckled and didn’t take it seriously!
But upon hearing Mola Mola, Pingtou Ge actually believed him.
Forget about seven or eight hundred pounds; he would believe it even if it were one or two tons! Mola Mola can grow up to three tons; they’re like small mountains.
However, what good does that do if you can’t take it home to eat? Can you even eat that fish? It’s likely only good for making fish balls if anyone would bother; otherwise, it’s just dried and ground into fish meal!
This fish swims slowly and has five teeth despite weighing hundreds of pounds; four of those teeth are fused together.
And because of those four teeth, its mouth can’t close properly; they’re practically just decorations.
In a fight, it can’t bite back and can’t swim away either; it has to find some way to protect itself! By growing less palatable meat, that’s its survival strategy.
When faced with starving Seals or sharks, they’ll nibble on it without hesitation. With such unappetizing meat, as long as they don’t starve to death, there shouldn’t be anyone willing to take another bite! Wasn’t Buddha known for cutting his flesh to feed eagles? Well then, this fish could do the same by feeding itself to others!
With its unpalatable flesh and an incredible reproductive capacity capable of laying millions of eggs at once, despite being preyed upon by Hai Li fish for so many years, their population still thrives!
This fish also enjoys sunbathing in Hai Li waters, lounging on the surface every day. With such a large size, one careless move could lead to a collision with a boat!
If the boat is small enough to capsize or large enough for the fish to flip over! Once there’s a collision, something is bound to flip!
I’ve never caught one! I don’t have that skill! Feeling speechless now, Pingtou Ge was somewhat reluctant to continue talking with Lobster.
"Are you really going to talk to me about the feel of this fish? What feel? It’s just like being snagged on the bottom! And you still want to catch it? You could swim faster than it!
You call yourselves the Sea Fishing Faction? You can’t even find fish; all you do is bully the honest ones. You might as well be called the Sea Turtle gang!
I secretly mocked the lobster while Pingtou Ge fiddled with his rod, lost in thought. Catching a big fish like Da Gui Wang was indeed a big deal for the Sea Fishing Faction. Calmly and the lobster went over to help, while the ocean kept an eye on three rods.
Wang Ergou couldn’t leave; he had something bigger than catching Da Gui Wang on his mind. Occasionally, he asked Pingtou Ge for tips on finding fish since this was their Da Gui Pai’s activity that happened every three months. He couldn’t afford to be clueless about fishing!
"Little Turtle, are you tired? Do you want me to take over for a bit?" After more than twenty minutes, the number on the Electric Reel was below thirty, and it looked like something was about to surface. Calmly moved closer to Da Gui Wang.
"Ran Ge, I saw your rod move just now. Go check if you’ve got a bite; that fish is coming up soon! The lobster and I can handle it!" As soon as Calmly spoke, Da Gui Wang tightened his grip on the rod, forgetting all about whether the wheel would overheat. With only thirty meters of line, how could he not bring it up?
"Did my rod move?" Da Gui Wang asked. Calmly turned off the faucet and immediately turned to watch his own rod.
"Ran Ge, don’t worry; I’ll keep an eye on it! If you hook a fish, I’ll help you reel it in." The ocean chimed in, and Calmly gave up his spot at the faucet, running over to his own rod.
He looked at the tip of his rod—where was the movement? Where were all the fish? Sea fishing wasn’t like Taiwanese fishing with all its intricacies; it was all about getting a bite and testing your stamina!
"Fish on!" Wang Ergou shouted, startling Calmly! Glancing at Wang Ergou’s rod, this fish was definitely no small catch!"
