Chapter 194 - 194 194 Adjustments Take Effect

194: Chapter 194: Adjustments Take Effect 194: Chapter 194: Adjustments Take Effect The first part of the competition merely saw Yue Feng barely grasping the basics of the technique.

It was only after a brief summary and adjustment in the second part that the counterattack began.

With the experience from the first part, Yue Feng started the second part by frequently jerking the rod at the bait point with a large double hook lure, almost exactly mimicking Bai Xu’s movements.

After about a dozen casts at the new fishing spot, fish started to bite.

Yue Feng wanted to test the effectiveness of his newly changed fishing line and hook, so he deliberately slowed down his casting frequency by half a beat.

Indeed, after switching to a finer line and a lighter hook, the movements of the float became more realistic and beautiful.

Previously, when a fish took the bait, only a slight touch on the float was visible, about a third of an eye’s width, but now it started at half an eye’s width, and the subsequent movements were more powerful and exaggerated.

Seeing Yue Feng giving up on gathering more fish early to start catching them, the spectators behind him started making noise.

“Has Old Bai confused him?

Why start fishing now without gathering more fish?”

“Damn, this round is cooling down too!

I knew I shouldn’t have bet!

This isn’t working at all, so unmemorable.

I thought he might pull off a surprise and snag a big haul, but now it’s unlikely he’ll get any!”

Zhao Dezong glanced at his companion and whispered, “Old Bai is stable again!”

Seeing it this way from his opponents, Qiangzi and Brother Liu also exchanged a glance, not very optimistic!

Yue Feng picked the timing to catch the fish too early.

Catching one fish early meant that later, the density of the bait pile would be much lower, not worth the loss!

Inside the live stream room.

“Is Brother Feng changing his strategy?

Why is he starting to catch so early, there aren’t many fish!”

“It’s getting harder to understand, but I think it’s not quite right!

Could there be another consideration?”

Mystery person: “Let’s see what happens next.

It might also be a test to verify his own thoughts!

Just as the first part ended, Brother Feng re-tied a small line group!”

“Brother Feng for the win!

Wipe out those bastards on the other side!

They even placed extra bets!

Let them lose everything!”

Yue Feng was completely unaware of all the reactions around him.

At this moment, he was utterly focused.

After verifying his guess, Yue Feng switched from using a lure to using ragworms and resumed his frantic casting.

Compared to the quick and convenient bites when using lures, ragworms formed bigger bait balls, and the state of the bait was much poorer.

But there were pros and cons.

After switching to ragworms, each cast brought more bait into the bait point.

Since the main purpose before starting to catch was to make a pile, he wouldn’t continue catching immediately.

The piles made with ragworms were even more solid.

Yue Feng threw precisely two bean-sized bait balls with each cast into the bait point, significantly outdoing Bai Xu in terms of the amount of bait thrown.

In less than five minutes, Bai Xu’s bait pile began to catch fish, indicating a sufficient number of fish within the bait point, so Bai Xu changed his rhythm and began catching fish normally.

With Bai Xu getting bites, Yue Feng’s bait pile was not far behind.

He quickly adjusted and switched back to the double hook lure to start catching.

After the initial test cast, Yue Feng gained great confidence in the fish’s biting.

After casting, he patiently observed the float movements.

If what he discussed with Big Brother Liu after the first part was true, the rate of double tail bites and the float movements should improve significantly.

Now it was time to put it into practice.

Two pea-sized lure bait balls hit the water; the lead weights pulled the daughter line down, straightening the main line.

The float paused for a while before turning over and slowly sinking.

As it neared the bottom position, there was a small bite pause of one and a half eyes, which Yue Feng let pass without reacting.

It was followed quickly by a big pause bite of one eye.

This continual biting action was stable in eight or nine out of ten cases, but Yue Feng still didn’t strike, his eyes fixed on the bobber for any subsequent movement.

The second one is about to bite, buddy, whether I win or lose now depends on you!

About a second after the first fish bit, the bobber moved again with a snap, another bite, and then the bobber stabilized, slowly rising.

Seeing this, Yue Feng lifted the rod to hook the fish!

He got it!

Double tail!

After changing the entire line set, the interval before the next bite was much shorter compared to the first round, and the entire action of the bobber seemed quite complex, but in reality, it was just a very short duration of a single breath in and out.

The rhythm was much better than the first round.

Seeing Yue Feng catch a double tail, Liu Fengnian’s furrowed brow slightly relaxed!

He had been standing there watching, the movements of the bobber clear to him.

Clearly, the adjustments had greatly improved the effect and significantly boosted efficiency.

After catching the first double tail, Yue Feng was unstoppable, casting, pressing the line, feeding the bait, retrieving the fish—his rate of catching double tails was frighteningly high, lifting the rod almost always resulted in double tails, with very few misses or single catches.

After consistently catching five double tails, the live stream viewers were boiling with excitement!

“Feng seems to have found the knack, always managing to catch double tails!

He has hit five in a row now!

Now he’s three fish ahead of the opponent!”

“It’s so strange, it doesn’t look much different from the first round, why couldn’t he catch them before, and now it’s double tails every time?

Did he switch to some incredible new bait?”

“Brother above, the bait hasn’t changed, it’s the same kind as in the first round!”

“This Competition Pond is so magical!

Everything seems unchanged, yet the fish behavior has changed so much.

Feng is definitely going to win this round!”

“Is the mystery guy here?

Can you analyze the situation?

A newbie here, I don’t understand!”

The mystery person: “Feng changed to a finer main line and especially the leader line.

When fish snatch the bait underwater, the thickness of the line set greatly affects the success rate of the bite.

The first one is okay, as the longer leader line is easier to take in.

For catching double tails, the shorter leader line also needs to be easily taken in.

The adjustment mainly lies here, and it is the most crucial point.

If you pay attention, you can see that the bobber’s biting actions are much crisper and more pronounced than in the first round!”

“The mysterious guy’s analysis seems reliable, I feel it’s very close to the real truth!”

“Brother is awesome!

Truly insightful!”

The viewers were filled with anticipation for victory, but Bai Xu beside them quietly furrowed his brow.

Something’s not right.

Why is his rate of catching double tails so much higher than mine?

Catching double tails indeed involves certain techniques—it’s not that mystical after all.

It revolves around several major factors: the baseline number of fish in the nest, the state of the bait after it hits the water, details of the leader line, plus picking the most successful timing to strike.

The number of fish in the nest is a prerequisite for catching double tails—the more there are, the easier it is to catch double tails, and the less demanding the other conditions become.

As an experienced angler, Bai Xu paid a lot of attention to these details, and for quite some time, his success rate in catching double tails was unrivaled.

And now, Yue Feng had turned the tables!
