Chapter 719: Chapter 302: Catching Fish by Hand

Seeing Lin Yang accept his water, Captain John then withdrew.

Lin Yang continued to fish for those Small Calami Bluefin Tuna.

After resting, the other fishermen on the boat joined in the fishing as well.

Following that incident, the way others looked at Lin Yang was a bit strange.

It seemed the Captain’s words carried some truth after all, Lin Yang would catch a Bluefin Tuna, flash a grin, and then happily release it back into the water without even taking a photo, what was the point?

Could he actually be a bit deranged?

In the afternoon, everyone fished for another wave of Bluefin Tuna, which turned out to be quite similar to the morning’s catch, only Small Calami with not a single large Bluefin in sight.

As evening approached, the fishing boat headed back.

After returning to their place of rest, the night was still spent around a bonfire.

"I suppose everyone is tired from fishing today, right? How about we take a break from fishing tomorrow and go diving near a nearby island to catch fish and lobsters, and gather sea snails, sea cucumbers, and abalones, then have a picnic. Tasmania’s lobsters and abalones are very famous, and the location is on the island next to where we were fishing today."

The guide briefly outlined the plan for the next day, and then glanced uncertainly at Lin Yang.

From the look of him since evening, it was clear that he wasn’t the least bit tired from fishing, even seemingly eager to fish through the night.

Therefore, the guide was somewhat worried that Lin Yang might object to the next day’s plan, but decided it was still best to rest for the sake of the majority.

"Sure, just arrange it as you see fit. I’m indeed exhausted today, but I really enjoyed the fishing, haha, especially Master Lin, who kept catching one Bluefin Tuna after another without taking a break."

Wang Meng and the others naturally agreed with the guide’s plan.

His hands were still trembling faintly, and it might even get worse by tomorrow, so it was out of the question to engage in any more intense fishing.

A proper rest would be better, to prepare for catching bigger fish later.

The other tourists also expressed their agreement.

"I’m easygoing. Brother Wang, you flatter me too much. It’s just that I exercise regularly, so I have a bit more stamina." Although Lin Yang felt a slight regret, he still adhered to the principle that the minority should follow the majority.

Whether the school of fish would still be there tomorrow was an uncertainty. He would wait and see and, if time allowed, inviting the captain over to join in wasn’t out of the question.

After all, tomorrow’s activity was on the island next to today’s fishing spot, and it wouldn’t take much time for the fishing boat to swing by and check.

After indulging in the local delicacies and enjoying an exotic dance performance, everyone headed back.

It was precisely because they had truly exhausted themselves catching big fish the day before that they didn’t set out as early as they had for fishing the previous two days.

Indeed, fishermen not planning to fish couldn’t manage to rise early.

The next day, when a few of them arrived at the dock, they discovered that several people were gathered there, seemingly engrossed in something.

Upon approaching, they realized these people were watching a big fish swimming near the pier.

Wang Meng, an early riser, was among them, and his posture was quite odd.

The fish resources in this place were incredible; it was commonplace to see various big fish lingering near the pier, and sometimes even Golden Spearfish were spotted.

Unlike at home, where in populated areas, it’s almost impossible to see a fish bigger than the size of a palm.

A place like this, where big fish over a meter in length swam fearlessly close to people, was unheard of.

If there were any, it’s certain that within a day, net-wielding citizens, electricians, or even poisoners would swarm in and deplete them.

But that’s the inevitable result of having such a large population in our country, requiring massive amounts of resources, which naturally dwindles over time, especially with initial mismanagement.

Fortunately, in recent years, as policies have been implemented, fish resources across the country have begun to show signs of recovery.

"What are you all doing? We’re about to leave."

Seeing Wang Meng half-kneeling at the edge of the pier, as if constantly observing something in the water, the guide couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Yo, you’re here! Just in time. Wait for me, watch as I show you how to catch a big fish with bare hands!"

Upon seeing the others coming over, Wang Meng seemed eager to try, uttering words that took everyone by surprise.

"Bare-handed big fish catching?"

At this moment, not only the guide had a puzzled look, but everyone else, including Lin Yang, felt the same.

"Heh heh, just stick around and watch."

Without further explanation, Wang Meng merely shook the small fish he was holding and gave a confident grin to everyone.

He then turned his attention back to the big fish swimming under the pier’s decks. Without making others wait too long, he took a small fish from beside him and placed it on the surface of the water.

Lin Yang glanced at the fish in the sea; if he wasn’t mistaken, they should be a school of Big Sea Bass, just like the kind they caught on the first day, which even dogs wouldn’t eat.

As Wang Meng brought the small fish close, a big fish from the sea happened to swim nearby and noticed his prey.
