320: Chapter 309: Fast-Mouthed Fish, Irritable Fish Mood 320: Chapter 309: Fast-Mouthed Fish, Irritable Fish Mood “Alright, alright, the warm-up phase has ended temporarily.

The referee just blew the whistle, and the final minute countdown to officially start fishing has begun.

It’s time to get serious!

In the upcoming phase, Musk Wine will still be given away.

If anyone has a clear understanding of the fish situation on the field and gets the majority’s approval, then I will consider giving away a bottle of Musk Wine,”

“Also, it seems Brother Feng still has some experimental bait on hand.

I will also randomly give some away.

I can’t guarantee its effectiveness, and I won’t charge any fees, including shipping.

Same old rules, it all depends on everyone’s performance.

There are no rules, I’ll give it away all based on mood!”

With this opening speech, the livestream audience’s spirits were instantly ignited.

Damn, looks like Loose Powder has managed to get some of Brother Feng’s experimental bait.

This is the good stuff.

You should know that everything from Brother Feng has always been top-notch, never a letdown.

The atmosphere continued under rather noisy and chaotic conditions, and the final minute quickly passed.

With an order from the referee, the competition began!

The match officially started!

Having some preliminary understanding of the fish situation in the competition, Yue Feng chose a 4.5-meter fishing rod as his first equipment.

Upon hearing the whistle, he immediately used a Lead Skin seat to sink four balls of bait into the water.

The river fishing competition lasted much longer than traditional sporting matches—six hours—so the requirements for the bait balls were higher.

Regardless of the fishing conditions, one should start with a suitable amount of bait right after beginning to fish, at the very least to avoid disadvantage.

After setting the four balls of Lead Skin bait, Yue Feng began fishing in earnest.

According to Mr.

Wei, the owner of Ju You Fishing Tackle, Carp were most common here, so Carp was also Yue Feng’s first choice of target fish during the frantic initial phase.

With the fish situation unclear, Loose Powder took the lead.

Yue Feng’s first cast after beginning to fish hooked a Loose Powder.

He baited the hook normally and precisely dropped it into the bait spot.

During this process, an angler in the same area had already caught a fish.

The sound of a fish biting the line alerted Yue Feng.

From the moment the competition bell rang, Yue Feng was fully in the competitive mode, with all senses engaged.

A rapid catch was a sign of a fast-paced fish situation.

If other anglers started catching fish shortly after, it likely indicated that the fish situation right after the start would be aggressive, suggesting a more liberal approach with bait usage and technique.

It was just a minor detail, but Yue Feng already had a follow-up strategy in mind.

The moment the first bait hit the water, the float began to turn.

Just then, an angler to Yue Feng’s right caught a fish as well, but it seemed like he had a problem with his timing.

After lifting his rod, he failed to land the fish, and his first catch got off the hook with a snap.

This made Yue Feng’s judgment even more accurate.

The fish could be moving fast; now it all depended on the reaction after the first bait hit the water.

As he was tensely waiting, the float smoothly descended to about seven rods deep and then hovered there.

The next second, with a clang, it took a sharp dip.

The initial strike couldn’t be rushed, not because he couldn’t catch it, but because the chance of the fish getting off the hook was much higher if it took the bait closer to the surface.

Therefore, Yue Feng didn’t lift his rod immediately, but intentionally let the fish take another bite.

He ignored the sharp dip, and the float immediately darkened down, with the remaining four rods’ worth of fishing line disappearing beneath the water.

Now he couldn’t wait any longer.

Yue Feng exerted force through his wrist and lifted the rod to spear the fish, hitting it precisely.

The fish’s strength was even greater than Yue Feng had anticipated.

After being speared, it turned and darted toward the center of the water.

In such a situation, an angler’s reaction was critically tested.

Yue Feng reacted quickly, swiftly tilting the rod to one side to exert force, and as soon as he got the fish to turn back, he promptly bent the rod forward.

After this move, the fish was secure!

In one round out of the water, Yue Feng quickly pulled it to the surface, deftly scooped it up with the net by hooking his left foot around the net pole and set the net on the rim of the Fish Guard.

During this process, Yue Feng was most concerned about whether the hook that caught the fish was on the top or bottom.

This also affected his subsequent actions.

With his left hand pinching the shallow indention behind the fish’s gill cover, his right hand followed the hook inside the mouth to check its position, and he saw that the fish had bitten the upper hook of the Loose Powder.

Since the fish went for the Loose Powder, it showed that at least this thing was not disliked by the fish.

For the next cast, Yue Feng pinched a small triangular Loose Powder on each of the two hooks, and cast it out again.

An initial judgment was made, but a secondary verification was still needed.

If the fish continued to actively take the bait, then he could confidently use the aggressive Loose Powder fishing technique.

The second rod quickly entered the water; the float turned over and descended.

Near the seven or eight-length mark from the bottom, it gave another forceful check bite—it was still on point!

The fish had swallowed the bait deeply in the previous cast and had taken it properly, so this time Yue Feng didn’t give slack, raised the rod, and caught another one!

After landing two fish in quick succession, Yue Feng had made a fairly accurate judgement about the early phase of the fishing competition.

The fish were biting quickly and furiously!

The next second, an operation that puzzled many people occurred.

Yue Feng casually took scissors from the side of the Fishing Box and with a snap, he cut off the perfectly good hook and switched to a pair of spare new hooks!

The line cutting and hook changing were almost done in one breath, taking only a few seconds.

Many viewers in the live stream hadn’t even realized what happened before the hook was already changed.

“What’s the situation?

Did he cut the line after catching two fish?

That shouldn’t be it!

We saw the fish netted!”

“It shouldn’t be a cut line; the two fish Yue Feng caught at the start were pretty stable, and there was no issue unhooking, just now he arranged the double hooks and then directly cut at the position of the Octagonal Ring!”

The child also saw this scene, and although she saw it more clearly—indeed the sub-line was cut—the viewers did not realize the issue.

However, she cleverly came up with one.

“Live stream viewers are quite observant, huh?

I also noticed this detail.

From now on, everyone please speak up, and later I will announce the correct answer!

The first viewer to guess correctly will be rewarded with a pack of experimental bait!!”

Hearing that there was experimental bait to be had, the viewers responded very vigorously.

“It must be that the sub-line was damaged, right?

Afraid that the next cast might have problems catching a fish, so he cut it off in advance!”

“That shouldn’t be it, it was only two fish.

I guess the hooks were too small!”

“Could it be that the fishing depth on the float is a bit high?

Change to a bigger hook, it could sink to the bottom faster, packing a certain depth, and the larger hook could also more securely handle bites, making it harder for the fish to escape!”

“I think first, we should rule out any damage!

Yue Feng was very steady in handling the fish, that shouldn’t have been an issue!

Decisively changing the hook must be considered from the perspective of the fish’s behavior and adaptive strategy!

So my answer is, Yue Feng judged the fish were highly aggressive, changed to a larger size of the sub-line and hook to increase the error margin, while also making the catching process more efficient!!”
