Chapter 497: Chapter 228: The Super Colossus_3

"It’s almost impossible for it to be a whale; whales don’t move that fast. I suspect it’s the legendary giant Bluefin Tuna! Our bet is looking bad."

"How far is your boat from theirs? How about getting a closer look?" Gao Bai, after hearing this judgment, felt a sinking feeling in his heart and insidiously suggested.

"You want me to cause them some trouble?"

"It’s just observing up close, not exactly trouble. As long as we keep a safe distance, it won’t count as meddling. Fifty meters, no, eighty meters should be enough! The big fish are smart, they love to swim under boats. If they accidentally break the fishing line, it won’t be our fault, as there will be no evidence." Gao Bai continued.

"Alright, I’ll have my uncle bring the boat a little closer."

...

After a brief exchange, the Snow White, the fishing boat John was on, pulled up anchor and headed toward the Willy.

No sooner had they approached than Captain Harry spotted the irregularity and immediately began to chastise loudly over the common channel.

"Damn it, Thompson, get your crappy fishing boat away from here! If your boat dares to get any closer and interferes with our fishing, I’ll blow your ass apart with thunder!"

This scolding was merciless, but Captain Thompson didn’t take it seriously and continued to control the fishing boat to move closer, stopping at a position about 120 meters away.

Thompson: "Harry, you’re still as hot-tempered as ever. We’re just here to watch the fun; calm down, don’t be too tense. The boats are at least 120 meters apart now, it won’t affect you!"

The straight-line distance of 120 meters, considering the angle of the fish underwater, indeed does not have much impact.

But nothing is absolute. The sudden approach of the second boat still startled the big fish, and it once again began to pull fiercely on the line.

What made it worse was that the fish swam in the direction of Thompson’s fishing boat.

"Damn it, the big fish is heading towards your boat! Lin Yang, tighten the drag lock!" Captain Harry, seeing the direction the big fish was surging, immediately hollered loudly.

Lin Yang had already heard Captain Harry’s voice and, hearing his reminder again, immediately tightened the drag on the winch.

With the drag locked tight, the resistance on the fishing line suddenly increased. With an existing angle, the big fish involuntarily changed its swimming direction.

The first wave of crisis finally passed, and the big fish changed course, swimming towards the southwest direction between the two boats.

The drag was set too tight; the big fish struggled against the significant resistance, and the special nylon fishing line, thick as a ballpoint pen refill, buzzed with the trembling.

Lin Yang, as well as the viewers in his live broadcast room, were all unconsciously on edge.

Just when it seemed like the crisis had passed, Gao Bai’s fishing boat also started heading over.

The second boat.

The third boat!

The three fishing boats vaguely formed a triangle, surrounding the side of the Willy where the right-side rod holder was positioned.

The distance between the boats was all over 100 meters, which seemed like a safe distance, but for such big fish, even minor influences could be deadly.

From this angle, the three fishing boats of Gao Bai and his companions were brimming with malice!

Harry, having sailed for more than 20 years, was dealing with interference from three boats for the first time while having a big fish on the line. His anger flared up immediately.

Enraged, Captain Harry switched the boat’s radio to the public channel that everyone could receive, and bellowed: "This is the Willy, I am Captain Harry! A guest on my boat is currently fighting a big fish. Any fishing boat that comes within 300 meters of the Willy will be considered malicious interference!

I repeat, any fishing boat that comes within 300 meters of the Willy is malicious interference! If you continue to act on your own, I will retain video and audio evidence and pursue legal action!"

"Ha-ha, Harry, you must be getting senile. We are also commercial fishing boats. Our guests have lawful fishing rights in these waters. We are sailing legally. Pursue responsibility? That sounds scary. I am so scared!"

"Today we will fish here, and not only fish, but we will also drop anchor! If you insist on pursuing responsibility, count our Cupid in as well!"

The three boats made their stance very clear and quickly dropped their anchors to fix their positions.

Seeing this, Captain Harry’s cheeks twitched with rage, and the next second he opened a tool box on the side of the cabin; underneath was a long, slender case.

It was impossible to see what was in the case, but the spent shells scattered beside the toolbox were telling. Captain Harry was truly angry.

At that moment, Zhang Lin walked in, anxious: "Hey, Captain Harry, my Chinese friend is still on the boat. Calm down! Calm down!"

The loud reminder somewhat cooled the captain down. He stood up straight, seething as he looked towards the distant fishing boats: "Damn it, I swear I’ll make them pay!"

"It’s not that bad, it’s not as terrible as it seems. With your experience, let’s first find a way to reel in the fish before dealing with anything else. My friend has good luck; today he’s using the rod and reel and has the thickest fishing line and the sturdiest hook. We’ve still got a good chance," Zhang Lin consoled.

With Zhang Lin’s consolation, Captain Harry calmed down. Indeed, the electric reel and heavy-duty rod offered a much higher margin of error when dealing with an exceptionally large fish. There was still a chance!

"Come with me!" Captain Harry called out, stepping briskly out of the cabin and heading straight for Lin Yang.

By now, Lin Yang had realized the sinister intent of this group of foreigners. Seeing Captain Harry storm over, he nodded as a greeting.
