A few minutes later, Air Force was a step ahead. A large red fish was hooked and dragged onto the boat as he quickly pulled out his phone to mark the catch. He glanced over at Shi Tian, chuckling to himself; Shi Tianyu had just been robbed, the line was almost reeled in, and now it was frantically running out again!
This kind of situation was not uncommon in sea fishing. When a three to five-pound Xiao Yu was close to the boat, a big fish could swoop in and steal it, leaving you with either just a fish head or swallowing your hook whole. The fish on Shi Tian's rod was putting up a strong fight, so it must be quite substantial.
What kind of big fish would dare to rob? That was anyone's guess! Sea Wolves liked to steal, but they had limits; they might gnaw off some flesh and leave behind just a skeleton or a fish head. Sharks also enjoyed robbing smaller fish; if it wasn’t particularly large, they could swallow it whole. If a shark were to take the bait, Shi Tian would likely be left feeling frustrated!
Dolphins also engaged in thievery, but the fish on Shi Tian's rod clearly wasn’t a dolphin; otherwise, it would have surfaced for air by now! Then there were Tuna, which had a higher chance of being the culprit since they were prevalent around the Nansha Islands. There were various types like Longfin Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, and even the Dogtooth Tuna masquerading as regular Tuna.
Watching Shi Tian helplessly clutching his small rod while staring at the wheel as his line ran out, Air Force felt less anxious. He opened his social media app to check for catches.
A Red-tailed Silverside weighed in at five pounds two ounces; it was said to cost about two or three dollars per pound, not much cheaper than Tuna.
No punctuation options? What’s going on? He quickly opened the map and saw that the boat had traveled quite a distance, marked with several points along the way. Clicking on the markers revealed flags for Lu Ya and Shi Ye! When had they caught fish?
Having entered the Nansha area while Air Force and Shi Tian were either sleeping or steering the boat, they had both taken their rods to the stern, casting hooks into Hai Li and trolling around. Each time they caught a fish, they marked a point. Now looking at it, those two had already caught over ten fish and marked just as many points!
What was even more frustrating was that Lu Ya’s catch was only slightly larger than his own by an ounce; now he couldn’t even mark his flag—how irritating!
“Jun Ge, let’s go! The rod is a bit small; I’m worried it won’t hold up!” Shi Tian started calling for help while still dazed from marking his catch.
With a small rod and reel—specifically a Spinning Reel—there was still hope for landing this big fish! Sun Lang hadn’t pursued Yu Jing for verification yet and had also hooked a fish himself. Since it wasn’t too large, he figured Air Force should be able to drag it up once he got the boat ready.
Could this possibly be a shark? As he put his phone away, Air Force didn’t rush to start the boat; instead, he wanted to check on Shi Tian’s situation first and see what kind of creature he had hooked. It wasn’t a shark; this fish was fast but lacked endurance—it only ran out line for about two minutes at a time—definitely not a shark.
Sharks are incredibly strong. If you were to use that rod in his hand, a shark wouldn't stand a chance and would have already swum away! Two minutes of line? That definitely can't be a tuna! Hearing this, Air Force became intrigued.
It can't be a tuna; if it were, we would have likely emptied the cooler by now! Shi Tian has caught plenty of tuna, whether it's the common Yellowfin Tuna, Bigeye Tuna, or Longfin Tuna. They all fall under the Yellowfin category and share similar traits: they have a foul temper, are fast, powerful, and possess remarkable endurance.
I've never chased fish from a boat before. Here, let me hold the rod while you drive the boat. Once I learn how to chase fish, you can take over for me!
Shi Tian glared at Air Force, wanting to smack him with the rod! But he knew that Air Force was speaking the truth. Their track record was evident; they had boasted countless times about their fishing exploits while drinking together. They hadn't caught many fish at all, and it was Air Force who had used the small crane on his boat for the first time!
Once they retrieve the rod, you move toward the bow of the boat. I'm going to take the wheel now!
