Chapter 337: Chapter 180: Fishing for Bull Shark

After catching the Ghost Head Knife, Lin Yang checked the unlocked rewards, which included 2000RMB, plus 20 points of experience and points, and 0.1% of aquatic knowledge, rewards that were within his expectations.

Since the Ghost Head Knife would soon die once caught, there was no need to put it in the live water tank, so he simply laid it aside to deal with later.

Having baited the hook, Lin Yang no longer used Nine-section Shrimp as bait this time. Since he was able to catch a Ghost Head Knife, there must be others nearby, so he opted for a livelier small fish as bait this time.

After casting the bait into the water, he continued fishing, choosing to float the line.

However, possibly because the Ghost Head Knife had struggled for about fifteen minutes earlier, in the following half hour, not only did he not catch another large fish like that, he only caught one small fish.

Li Xiaopeng was in a similar situation on the other side, having not caught any fish for a while, continuously chatting with his viewers.

Now, it was noon, and Yue’er had gone back to the yacht to cook.

Lin Yang was casually chatting with viewers in the livestream, leaning over the yacht’s railing intermittently, when suddenly, a glare from the surface of the water flashed in his eyes, as if a mirror had reflected the sunlight.

Noticing this, he instantly became vigilant; the phenomenon just now was clearly a Ghost Head Knife swimming on the surface.

Indeed, when he looked carefully into the water, he noticed a Ghost Head Knife approaching his bait ahead....

Lin Yang hadn’t expected that, after a boring half-hour wait, another Ghost Head Knife was about to bite.

This was a passing Ghost Head Knife, much smaller than the previous one, weighing just over ten pounds. When it got less than five meters away from the bait, Lin Yang was ready to lift the rod.

However, just as he placed both hands on the fishing rod, ready for the Ghost Head Knife to bite, suddenly, a gray-white figure quietly emerged from below the surface of the sea.

At the sight of the gray-white figure, Lin Yang was startled for a moment. By the time he reacted and wanted to lift the rod, the gray-white figure was faster, darting forward instantly. It then bit the bait, which weighed a bit more than a pound, and directly swallowed it.

The sudden immense force nearly dragged Lin Yang and the rod into the air. Fortunately, he had gripped the rod in advance, or else it would certainly have been pulled into the sea by now.

At that moment, the fishing line was being pulled out swiftly.

From Lin Yang spotting the Ghost Head Knife to the sudden appearance of the gray-white figure that intercepted the bait, everything happened in the blink of an eye, leaving the chatting viewers dumbfounded by the scene.

"What happened? Why did the rod suddenly bend? Did he catch a big fish?"

"The host was obviously not ready, he was almost dragged into the water just now."

After the gray-white figure bit the bait and swam swiftly forward, Lin Yang also reacted, grasping the rod tightly and tightening the drag. Li Xiaopeng, hearing the commotion, quickly ran over to help, both of them working together to steady the rod.

"666... If I’m not mistaken, the host caught a shark, right?"

"Looking at the color and shape, it’s definitely a shark. The host is a giant creature slayer, even able to catch sharks."

"Experts, what kind of shark did the host catch? It feels bigger than ordinary sharks; it’s so terrifying, I’m too scared to go to the beach now."

"If I’m not wrong, this should be a Bull Shark, one of the dumber types of sharks, with a very violent temper. The one the host caught doesn’t look very big, only about two meters or so."

Watching the lively comments in the livestream, Lin Yang smiled after stabilizing the rod. He had been about to reel in when an unexpected catch occurred.

While playing the fish, he began to introduce this type of shark: "Yes, this shark is a Bull Shark, also one of the sharks that poses the greatest threat to humans. It not only attacks humans but also recognizes that humans are its competitors. It intentionally bites the hook, then tries to flip the human’s boat, attacking them to prevent them from continuing to fish...."

"Really? The fish even fishes for people?"

"That’s enlightening."

Lin Yang glanced at the comments and laughed: "People say Bull Sharks are dumb, but whether it’s actually dumb or not, no one knows. Just like it biting the hook now, do you think it wants to fish for people, or does it want to be fished by people? Obviously, it definitely can’t flip this yacht, even a Great White Shark would be useless...."

"Cousin, should we cut the line?" Li Xiaopeng asked quietly, looking at the reel on the fishing rod that was nearly smoking under the strain of the Bull Shark.

"No need, I have enough line, let’s try fishing it." Lin Yang responded and began trying to control the fishing line and the Bull Shark in the sea.

Sharks are actually not very resilient creatures, er, not referring to anything else, just that their stamina isn’t very good. Despite needing constant swimming exercises due to lack of fatty tissue, of course, there are plenty of sharks that don’t need to do this, as they can live just fine lying on the seabed.
