Chapter 258 - 258 257 The Contrast is Obvious

258: Chapter 257: The Contrast is Obvious 258: Chapter 257: The Contrast is Obvious After saying that, Yue Feng re-molded a bait and cast it directly into the nest.

Oddly enough, previously when the float overturned during the cast, it would connect at a high position.

However, after changing the bait, there was no fish biting despite the float moving from overturning to settling in position.

The actions reflected by the float were minor slips and dips, and vertical tremors—unreal signals caused by fish swimming around the nest.

There was not a single genuine bite.

“Damn, that’s too exaggerated.

The float has settled and still no bites??” Yue Feng muttered quietly, habitually jerking the fishing rod to tease the float.

With that tease, there came a response—a hefty bite halfway on the float.

Yue Feng, reflexively lifting his rod to strike, hit the target!

Teasing in Taiwan Fishing is a very refined trick.

It’s effective with both crucian carp and common carp.

The fact that a normal downward settling of the bait did not attract bites, but a tease did, raised several questions.

Yue Feng, controlling the fishing rod with one hand, surfaced the fish in one maneuver and then repeated his previous tactic, holding the fish behind its gills to remove the hook.

This time, he deliberately focused on the position of the hook in the fish’s mouth.

It was evident that the hook was still at the usual 12 o’clock position, yet compared to the previous bites, the hooking point was noticeably shallower.

What does this mean?

It meant that the fish’s sensitivity to the new type of bait had decreased!

The previous rod with Medicinal Wine in the bait had solid, crisply defined bites, but this rod with the experimental bait had influenced the quality of the bites.

They were not as fierce as before.

“No way?

Is the difference that noticeable?”

“Bro, you’re not messing with us, right?

The bait you’re using now, you really didn’t add anything?”

“There should be a lot of fish in the nest by all accounts.

The earlier ten-plus fish were all connecting at high positions.

How could this one bypass the layers and sink to the bottom?

And only through teasing did it bite!”

“Not to mention, the swallowing force reflected by the float isn’t great either, just a bit more than half a bite’s depth compared to earlier.

It’s not a slight difference!”

“Could it be that there are no fish left in the nest?

Otherwise, why not switch the bait back and try again??”

Yue Feng glanced at his phone’s public channel and continued, “Let’s not make assumptions lightly.

Let’s try fishing with the Medicinal Wine bait for another round!”

After saying this, Yue Feng did nothing else but switched back to the Medicinal Wine bait.

He molded two ragworms on a twin hook and cast it down again.

As soon as the bait hit the water, the float overturned and immediately there were bites—two exaggerated, solid bites.

Yue Feng hesitated for just a moment, then lifted the rod to set the hook and noticed the force was extremely strong.

Goodness, both hooks had been swallowed by the fish, hooking a pair!!

Hooking a pair of tails in Carp is not a good thing.

The fish was quite large, and the pressure on the leader line was especially apparent.

A slight control issue could easily lead to the line splitting at the branches.

To avoid this, Yue Feng had always paired a larger Loose Powder when hooking, focusing on aggressive biting.

He didn’t expect that the first drop with twin-hooked ragworms would result in a double tail.

“Is the difference really that obvious?

Is Medicinal Wine that amazing?”

Spiky Cucumber: “Hahaha, I made a profit.

Brother Feng, this Medicinal Wine is awesome!

Once I get it, I’ll try it too.

My hands are itching just by watching!”

“Last year, when we were fishing in a pit here, we also encountered a very awesome angler who had added some unknown Medicinal Wine to his bait.

The fish looked terrible; many had rotten heads and tails.

Others could barely catch any, but this guy kept catching them continuously, making the whole pit watch his performance!”

We didn’t believe it and went to offer some cigarettes to get some bait from him, changed spots several times, and wherever we dropped our lines, we got bites everywhere!”

“The thing the brother above mentioned is called Gold Giant Carp!!

It’s produced by a small pharmaceutical factory in East Mountain Province!

It caused quite a sensation here at the time; I even bought a bottle for about 120 bucks, quite pricey.

But the money was well spent.

During that period, I almost always managed to bring fish ashore wherever I went.

Others couldn’t catch anything; I could.

Others had some luck; I would have a continuous catch.

I fished over ten sessions and not only did I not lose money, but I also made a nice little profit.

However, when I bought the second batch later, the effect was not so pronounced anymore.

After that, it didn’t work as well!”

“So it seems, the Medicinal Wine could indeed have fantastic effects!

With Brother Feng’s current situation, there’s a very good chance that the Medicinal Wine played a substantial role!”

Seeing the messages discussed by the friends in the public channel, Yue Feng was quite surprised.

No wonder the system rated this formula so highly, its effect was truly dominant!

If this thing’s effect is stable and it’s marketed, it would be like dropping a bomb in the angling community, surprising many expert anglers.

“You all saw how different baits worked, and I personally think this thing is quite effective!

Let’s try it a few more times while the fish are biting well.

To be honest, it has already exceeded my expectations!”

Next, Yue Feng switched and experimented a few more times; the bait’s effect was very stable.

Adding Medicinal Wine to the bait resulted in an exaggerated bite, strong and almost always high-quality feeding.

The bait without Medicinal Wine, on the other hand, required too much coaxing, an indifferent attitude from the fish, sometimes a tease might work, but mostly the bites were weak and the feeding shallow.

To dispel any suspicions the live stream viewers might have that Yue Feng had tampered with the bait in advance, Yue Feng simply stopped the excellent fishing streak and in front of everyone in the live stream, prepared a new batch of Ragworm.

Half with Medicinal Wine, half without.

The conclusion was still the same as the previous tests.

Yue Feng continued to chat with the live stream viewers and tweak the Bait Opening, quickly drawing the attention of nearby anglers.

He had just removed one fish, and hadn’t even put bait on the twin hooks, when the guy to his right, smiling broadly, offered him a cigarette.

“Brother, what bait are you using?

I listened to some of your live stream just now, could you share some of your bait with me?

I’d like to try it!

Since I started fishing today, I’ve only caught two fish, one of which was even snagged by the hook.

I’ve been watching your float, and the way you get bites is really crisp!”

The highest achievement for an angler at Black Pit is to impress the anglers on either side of him.

The other angler was offering cigarettes and seeking advice, making Yue Feng feel incredibly pleased.

“Hehe, just tried a little trick, this batch has got some added ingredients, give it a try!” Yue Feng waved his hand indicating he doesn’t smoke and generously handed a batch of bait to the angler who greeted him.
