Chapter 581: Chapter 254: Connect to the Giant_2
But at this moment, he witnessed firsthand Lin Yang bringing him surprise after surprise, prompting this veteran angler to start seeing him in a new light.
On this side, Lin Yang watched the bait hit the target on the water’s surface and showed a hint of a relaxed smile.
This was also thanks to his rich experience in wild fishing from the previous period; otherwise, relying solely on his brute strength clearly wouldn’t have sufficed.
Since he had already hit the targeted waters, what came next was a matter of luck, to see if there was a big catch hidden beneath the surface.
Thinking this, Lin Yang controlled the rod in his hands, began rhythmically reeling in the line.
At this sight, Jeremy also started to pay full attention.
If the first big catch that Lin Yang had land was luck, the casting technique he just demonstrated had already put a lot of pressure on him.
Fishing for big catches had always been his strong suit, yet now, facing a younger competitor, he found himself falling behind, which successfully fueled his competitive spirit.
Thinking of this, Jeremy also began casting his line.
Compared to Lin Yang’s powerful cast, Jeremy, with many years of experience in fishing for big catches, knew better where the big fish would likely appear.
Generally speaking, big fish like tranquility, and the huge river in front of them was hiding many rocky rises underneath.
When the current hits these rocks, it creates a noticeable trace on the surface; so, by avoiding these areas during casting, the chances of landing a big catch was still significant.
After pinpointing a few areas of the water, Jeremy began casting his rod over these surfaces one after another.
"If I can’t match the technique of the youngster beside me, I’ll win by quantity."
After casting his last rod, Jeremy started reeling in the rod in front of him.
It was at this moment that Jeremy suddenly noticed that the tip of the first rod he had cast was being tugged inward.
Seeing this, Jeremy’s eyebrows shot up with joy, and he quickly walked over to the first rod.
He bent down and grabbed the rod.
Whoosh.
As he lifted the rod, the line emitted a squeaking sound.
"Hey, Lin!"
Seeing this, Jeremy called out loudly to Lin Yang.
The pressure that Lin Yang had put on him just now dissipated after the fish bit the hook.
At this moment, in the live stream, numerous viewers saw Jeremy landing a fish and started sending a flurry of messages.
"Wow, Jeremy’s got a fish too, and seeing his expression, this one looks to be quite big."
"Right, considering how hard he’s struggling, it might be bigger than the one the streamer caught earlier."
"Bigger than what the streamer caught? Are you sure? The streamer’s strength is not something ordinary people can match."
Upon seeing Jeremy catch a fish, the comments in the live stream shot up crazily.
Compared to Lin Yang’s leisurely reeling, Jeremy’s eyes were bulging out now, and his face was flushed red.
"Damn, this is definitely a super big one, I swear!"
Saying this, Jeremy clenched his teeth and began to struggle with the big catch in the water.
From his looks, it seemed it was going to be a while before a winner could be determined.
Lin Yang, watching this, did not come forward to help because he knew that a qualified angler should not need someone else’s help to land his catch, otherwise, the title of angler would be somewhat undeserved.
So, just like Jeremy had done for him earlier, Lin Yang gave him a thumbs up.
Time ticked by second by second.
Lin Yang had already cast several times back and forth, but still hadn’t hooked any fish, which made him start to doubt his earlier judgment.
So, he was beginning to think that after casting this last rod, he would switch to a new area and try casting there.
Meanwhile, Jeremy was still entangled with the big catch he had hooked earlier.
But it seemed that he was about to determine the winner soon.
Indeed, the experienced Jeremy, seizing a moment when the big fellow underwater loosened up, took the opportunity to counterattack and began quickly pulling in his line, not giving the big catch underwater any chance to catch its breath.
"Hey, Lin, do you think this big guy will be bigger than the one you caught before?"
Listening to Jeremy’s question, Lin Yang laughed and shrugged his shoulders to indicate that he too was unsure.
Seeing his reaction, Jeremy also burst out laughing, "Right now, I feel just like you, not knowing how big this fish will be, but I’m certain that this catch is definitely the biggest one in my angling career! I swear, I can tell just from the force coming back through the rod in my hands."
"Of course, there’s also the fact that we’re now tied one to one."
As Lin Yang listened to Jeremy strenuously dragging his fishing rod while incessantly chattering, he couldn’t help but smile to himself thinking, "This old man..."
But in the next moment,
his eyes gleamed with excitement as he said to Jeremy, "Haha, one to one? That was before, I think the result of this competition is about to become two to one."
Having said that, he quickly lifted his rod.
The several hundred meters of line also straightened out, creating a long mist of water, as Lin Yang finally brought in the second fish.
"Oh my, we both have catches, I so love this, it makes me want to buy a plane ticket and fly over there, but not for tourism, just to experience handling these big fish."
"Want to experience catching big fish? Go sea fishing...."
At this moment, the chat was buzzing, but Lin Yang wasn’t in a mood to check.
Of course, it wasn’t his fault for not paying attention to the live chat, he simply couldn’t manage it, because the big catch that had just bitten was excessively strong.
Even for Lin Yang, it was a bit too much.
You see, the one just now weighed a couple hundred pounds, and he hadn’t even bothered to play it, he just forcefully pulled it up.
But at this time, he was clenching his arms tightly around the rod, and soon his body began sliding uncontrollably forward.
Helplessly, the ground here was next to the riverbank, all soft mud, providing no good foothold.
Seeing Lin Yang being pulled forward, the viewers in the live room stopped discussing and began to feel anxious for him. Yue’er on the shore also felt a tug at her heart.
On the other hand,
Jeremy, who had already pulled his catch to the shore, showed a somewhat disappointed expression on his face after seeing his catch.
However, it wasn’t because Lin Yang landed the second big catch. After decades of fishing around the world, he hadn’t become that petty.
It was simply because the catch in front of him was all too familiar.
It was the same type of big catfish that Lin Yang had fished earlier.
The figures were all measured by him, but that wasn’t the point.
The most important thing was that this fish, in terms of size, matched his guess; it was the biggest catch he had ever made in his angling career to date.
But compared to the one Lin Yang had just caught, it was clearly a size smaller, so he even skipped his usual action of jumping into the water to celebrate every time he caught a big one.
"What’s going on? After exerting so much effort, how could my catch be smaller than the one that kid easily pulled up? It obviously doesn’t make sense...."
At that moment, Jeremy was completely dejected.
You should know, even though he was advanced in years, thanks to his relentless, daily exercises over decades, even the trainers in gyms didn’t have more strength than him.
But why was this....
Thinking this, a deep shock started to show in Jeremy’s eyes.
Unless the guy beside him....
But upon closer inspection, he was completely stunned on the spot.
Even though the big one he had pulled to the shore had regained its strength and was about to shake the hook free, he didn’t realize it at all.
He just stared blankly at Lin Yang.
By then, Lin Yang’s body was falling backward, nearly touching the ground, forming a reclining posture.
And the rod in his hands was bent into a striking arc, not to mention the whooshing sounds of the long line being pulled out.
Seeing this, Jeremy’s mouth fell open in complete astonishment.
