Old Mo jumped into the pit, so I shouldn’t just stand around. I quickly cast my line! I’m determined to catch a fish bigger than his, and then let him dig the pit deeper. Let’s see if he can sleep tonight!
As I cast my line, I watched Old Mo flaunting a grass carp weighing a little over four pounds. Shi Tian quietly took out some Azure Carp Pellets and tossed them into the river. Old An had mentioned that there were Azure Catfish in this river, so I decided to give it a few tries.
Fishing in Taiwan is much better than fly fishing. I feed it bait, and it gives me fish in return. It feels fair, and I don’t feel guilty when eating the fish. Seeing Shi Tian focused intently on his float, Old Mo tried to strike up a conversation while holding his fish.
Glancing at the fish in Old Mo's hand, I smirked slightly. If I didn’t flatter him a bit, there was no way today’s fishing would be settled peacefully.
That fish is really big; you’re amazing! But this is just the surface of Chinese wisdom. Perhaps you should try to learn something deeper. After saying that, I offered Old Mo a cigarette, but he declined, saving it for later.
Using a Xiao Er to catch a big fish isn’t exactly fair. To thank the big fish for its sacrifice, maybe you could toss some bait into the river. If it sees its offspring being fed, it might feel even more gratified!
With that, Shi Tian grabbed a few Rohu Pellets from the bait tray and tossed them near his float, hoping these plastic particles wouldn’t attract a school of Largemouth Bass.
Watching Shi Tian’s actions, Old Mo scratched his head uncertainly and asked, “Are you sure you’re not throwing down bait to lure more fish for yourself? But I like it. Can you spare me some bait? I want to show my gratitude for this big fish’s sacrifice!”
It seems this foreigner isn’t foolish! Not only is he not foolish, but he’s also quite shrewd.
Thinking about it, anyone who can make a living here must have some smarts; otherwise, they’d have been sent back to Europe long ago.
In China, most fishermen scatter plenty of bait but only take a few fish home. More than half of them return without any catch; they just sit by the river to practice their skills.
If it were you, would you take home all the fish you caught? One would be enough for a meal! The rest would just be released, right? So saying it's about giving back isn’t an issue at all. Handing over some Lophius Wo Liao from my fishing box to Old Mo, I meant every word and even held back a little.
It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s about practice; even Da Wo Xian Ren has become an immortal through cultivation!
Shi Tian's words made Old Mo respect him greatly; he couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up.
You’re right! When I was in the Netherlands, I didn’t eat any of the fish I caught; they were all released! But back then, I didn’t think about scattering bait. Next time I go back to the Netherlands, I’ll definitely give it a try. With that said, Old Mo took his Wo Liao back to his fishing spot; he was ready for action.
Isn’t that obvious? Look at how polluted your waters are! Even if you want to eat them, you have to be brave enough! With a bit of sarcasm in Shandong Dialect, Shi Tian lifted his rod and pulled out two Azure Carp Pellets from his pocket to hook on before casting gently.
I wonder how the water in the Rhine River is now; it was seriously polluted before. Not only was there a terrible stench, but factories upstream were also dumping toxins. Environmental protection in Europe isn’t just talk; it’s serious business.
The common people truly need environmental protection; environmental organizations genuinely need the support of the public. Digging deeper, capitalists and politicians really need environmental organizations.
After going around in circles discussing this issue—environmental protection being shouted about loudly while funding keeps pouring in—at the end of the day, even a small river can’t be properly managed. Organizing an environmental activity where no one leaves behind trash is considered one of the biggest contributions to environmental protection.
Just as I was about to speak up again, my phone rang with a video call from Shi Ye coming through.
