"Take a break, I've got this covered!" Rejecting Sun Lang's kind offer, I tightened the drag and cranked the electric reel to its maximum. Was a thirty-pound fish really worth his effort to tire out? That would be too generous!
Honestly, even if Shi Tian caught this fish, it wouldn't matter. Even if he managed to reel it in, he'd still have to expend energy to release it. This fish wasn't worth much—far less valuable than a Niu Gang Mackerel. Keeping it would be pointless; I certainly wouldn't dry it out to make fish meal!
After a few minutes of struggle, I dragged the fish to the side of the boat. Sun Lang helped lift it up, using multi-functional pliers to remove the hook. I tossed the fish back into the water without so much as a thank you; it swished its tail and disappeared!
What a waste of bait! Not even a thank you, how rude! I grumbled under my breath and quickly hooked on another Xiao Yu, casting my line again.
What a pity to throw away such a big fish! Even if I filleted it, it could serve as bait! After poking fun at Shi Tianyi, Sun Lang raised his rod; he had hooked a fish too!
I shot Sun Lang an eye roll and decided not to engage with him further. The water here was teeming with fish; I should remind them to save their energy!
"Calmly," I called out, "there are plenty of fish here; why don't you switch your jig?" Turning to the Turtle Trio on the other side, I shouted for their attention. Shi Tian kept an eye on Sun Lang's rod; this fish seemed bigger than the previous Ghosthead Knife.
Actually, they didn't need my reminder; they had already started rummaging through the Fishing Box! All of them were seasoned fishermen; even if they hadn't done deep-sea fishing before, their angling skills were top-notch!
"How about switching to a tractor? That thing makes quite a noise and should attract fish!" Shi Tian suggested, while Calmly took the opportunity to ask for advice.
Calmly's question nearly left Shi Tian speechless! A tractor? He had never seen that before! Couldn't they use floating minnow lures instead? Why did they have to use a tractor?
"I haven't used lures before, so I'm not sure! It should work though!" I replied uncertainly, feeling somewhat exhausted.
Sun Lang still hadn't landed his fish when we heard a series of thuds—great, the tractor was running, and it was still a three-cylinder model!
"Are you guys running over here to catch Black Fish?" I shot back at Calmly. Wang Gou was also ready to switch his Fishing Set; with Shi Tian and Sun Lang both catching fish consecutively, he needed to adapt too!
"Come on, Dog Brother! Let's catch an eighty or ninety-pounder!" Da Gui Wang chimed in at just the right moment, bringing up that Manta Ray again. Regardless of its value, its weight was undeniable—who could argue against that?
Da Gui Wang's remark left Wang Gou speechless. If we were talking about value, his few catches were definitely worth more than Da Gui Wang's fish. But with a Tuna lurking in the ocean depths as backup, even if he caught one, it would only be humiliating! He knew Da Gui Wang was waiting for him!
With my bait cast out and letting the Ocean Current carry it away, I could only wait and see what I'd hook next! If I managed to catch a Tuna weighing several dozen pounds, just imagine how I'd rub it in Da Gui Wang's face!
"Boss, Dog Brother seems to have some issues with Calmly!" A sudden Ocean Wolf surfaced as Sun Lang turned back and quietly asked Shi Tian about the tension between them.
Hearing this made Shi Tian chuckle! This wasn't just some minor disagreement—it was practically a standoff!
There were no personal grievances between them; this was more about the clash between traditional fishing methods and lure techniques! You shouldn't get involved in this—it's like walking into a battlefield; your little frame wouldn't stand a chance! I warned Sun Lang playfully as I suddenly lifted my rod—a Yan Zai was hooked!
Rolling my eyes at Shi Tianyi again, I reeled in my line and switched to a larger hook. Grabbing hold of that Yan Zai Shi Tian had just caught, I quickly hooked it and tossed it back into the Hai Li!
With larger hooks and bigger bait comes bigger fish; that thirty-pound Xiao Yu just wouldn't satisfy my appetite anymore—I was ready for something massive!
The tractor was still quite effective; with a push on the accelerator, the three-cylinder engine turned into a two-cylinder one. Calmly, they had hooked a fish that was so powerful it couldn’t be reeled in!
At that moment, the morale of the Turtle Trio soared!
"Dog Brother, let’s make a bet on this fish! If you can catch one bigger than this one on the rod tonight, I’ll give you a Hua Zi. Conversely, you buy me a Hua Zi. What do you say?" After Wang Gou had ignored his earlier comment, Da Gui Wang felt a bit bored. Now that he finally had an opportunity, he certainly wouldn’t let it slip away!
Look at how bent that rod is; the fish must be quite large. If it’s pulling so hard that they can’t even release the tension, it must weigh at least close to a hundred pounds!
Wang Gou couldn’t possibly back out of this bet. If he didn’t take it, it would mean he was backing down, and Da Gui Wang would use this against him in the future!
"Alright! But if that fish gets away, then even if you lose, you’ll still have lost face! A fisherman who can’t even land a fish—what a shame that would be!"
Wang Gou wasn’t one to back down easily either; he quickly tossed the ball back into Da Gui Wang's court!
"Fine! I believe in Ran Ge’s skills! Even if the fish were twice as big, it would still be no problem for him!" Gritting his teeth, Da Gui Wang shot a glance at Calmly, effectively tying his wallet to Calmly’s fishing line!
Gambling isn’t good! Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll act as the referee. We’ll start timing now and continue until this time tomorrow—let’s bet for ten hours!
As soon as he heard about the two betting on fish, Shi Tian immediately jumped in: "But every referee needs a fee! No matter who wins, I want two packs of cigarettes as my referee fee! Soft packs, alright? Hard packs make me cough!"
