Chapter 335: Chapter 179: Big Ghost Head Knife_4

Seeing this situation, Lin Yang knew he had to change his fishing technique.

He glanced at the drone flying above and said, "When sea fishing, if you want to catch fish successfully, one important thing is to learn how to let out the line.

For example, the method of letting out the line when fishing at the surface is completely different from that of fishing at the bottom. When fishing at the surface, you need to occasionally move the fishing rod, keeping the bait active. On the other hand, when fishing at the bottom, if you feel the line is no longer running out, you have to rewind several circles to allow the fish to easily eat the bait you’ve dropped..."

As he spoke, Lin Yang began to change his fishing methods. He turned the reel to retrieve the line a few rounds, preparing to fish shallower.

At the same time, he continuously moved the fishing rod up and down, repeatedly pulling the fishing line to keep the shrimp bait in an active state.

Does this action seem familiar?

That’s right, this is Lure fishing. It was mentioned before that sea rods can be cast rods as well, and Lure fishing techniques can also be used. However, since the fish in the sea are naturally stronger, constantly moving the fishing rod would be even more exhausting, so under normal circumstances, this method is usually not used unless resources are scarce.

Using the method of continuously pulling the fishing line, it took Lin Yang about two minutes to catch another fish, and this one seemed not to be small.

Although he had been pulling fish for over an hour, he still had enough energy, swiftly pulling this big fish up with force.

However, seeing what kind of fish it was, Lin Yang was somewhat disappointed because he had just caught this type of fish yesterday. It was a Sea Bass, and it did look quite large, probably around thirteen or fourteen pounds.

Although a bit disappointed that no new species had been discovered, such a big Sea Bass was worth at least over a thousand yuan. Lin Yang held the rod with one hand and used the net to scoop the fish from the water’s surface with the other.

"This Sea Bass is big, probably over ten pounds. So envious of the host’s resources!"

"What’s there to be envious of, just charter a boat and go sea fishing yourself. Whether or not you can break even though, is another question."

"Let me tell you a fact, more than 90% of people who charter a boat for sea fishing don’t break even. If you don’t believe me, go look at those hosts’ videos."

Watching the comments in the live stream, Lin Yang chuckled and said he was just lucky. In actuality, whether he really was lucky, he didn’t know because ever since he switched to this fishing spot, he secretly activated a buff for catching medium to large fish.

The buff for catching medium to large fish lasted for twelve hours, and the probability increased from the original 20% to 30%. It goes without saying that this increase was quite significant, evident from the Silver Pomfrets he had been catching, which overall were bigger than those caught by Li Xiaopeng and the others.

After unhooking the fish, Lin Yang used a fish controller to weigh the big Sea Bass, which showed it weighed over fourteen pounds.

Generally speaking, Sea Bass are not very large, with those in freshwater being around two to three pounds, five being considered very big. Sea Bass from the sea generally weigh the same, but in the ocean, Sea Bass are more likely to break through these limits, and some older Sea Bass can grow to twenty or thirty pounds.

Lin Yang guessed that the Sea Bass he had just caught must be about seven or eight years old to have grown so large.

However, if we were to make a comparison, whether it’s freshwater or Sea Bass, there’s a type of truly colossal bass fish that’s much bigger than both of them.

This type of bass fish is called the Nile Perch, belonging to the Centropomidae family of Lates genus, primarily found in Western Africa. It’s also one of the world’s 100 most influential invasive species, capable of growing up to 400 pounds. The Nile Perch is ferocious when feeding. Once hooked, it will continuously jump out of the water, usually requiring at least two or three people to handle, as one person alone cannot reel it in.

Lin Yang was quite interested in challenging that fish, but obviously not now.

After putting the big Sea Bass into the live well tank, he continued to bait the hook and fish.

During the following time,

Lin Yang kept changing his fishing techniques, modifying the details of fishing, sometimes fishing at the bottom, sometimes at the surface, and the probability of catching fish over ten pounds had increased a lot compared to before. By eleven-thirty, he had caught another five or six large fish weighing over ten pounds.

On the other side, Li Xiaopeng, due to the decreased bites, started to change his fishing methods. Yue’er, meanwhile, put down the rod to rest. She had been fishing continuously for a good while, and since Lure fishing wasn’t suited for girls, she stopped. She watched Lin Yang catching fish for most of the time.

The viewers in the live room were also coming and going, but the total number remained around five to six thousand. Currently, his Douyin followers were approaching a million. Reaching a million followers in three months’ time could be considered very impressive.

When Lin Yang wasn’t catching fish, Yue’er would chat with viewers in the live room or ask for follows: "Ah... Dear audience, just hit the follow button, and next time Brother Yang goes live, everyone will be the first to know."

"Definitely next time."

"Definitely next time +1."

...

"Definitely next time +10086."

While the viewers were playing with memes in the comments, Lin Yang suddenly seized the fishing rod and lifted it, then the two-meter-long sea rod bent into an inverted U-shape, and the reel’s line was ’whizzing’ out crazily, even the sound was somewhat terrifying.

This hadn’t happened once today, and even the past couple of days, it only happened when catching that hundred-pound Long Dun. Even the commotion caused by the earlier caught sizable Sea Bass was nothing compared to this. Clearly, this fish was far more than just a few pounds.
