Chapter 330 - 330 319 Rlarge Flower Carp

330: Chapter 319 Rlarge Flower Carp 330: Chapter 319 Rlarge Flower Carp Yue Feng didn’t relax his attention.

After pulling up a “pig,” Yue Feng noticed there were still small movements in his fishing spot, but they were all ambiguous and never provided a clear indication of a bite.

Actually, from the point of view of a bystander, Yue Feng’s catch in the morning would have been more than enough to qualify him for tomorrow’s final.

However, since the competition wasn’t over, he remained highly focused, keeping an eye on any slight movement in his fishing spot.

“Damn it, could it be that there are only small fish left?

That doesn’t quite fit either!” Yue Feng muttered to himself, feeling uncertain.

Why that judgment?

The float was giving off very hesitant movements, trembling gently up and down without force, lacking the sudden movement of a bite, and it didn’t quite resemble the disturbance in the water that big fish would make when entering the spot.

Occasionally, a flurry of small fry would appear.

Yue Feng didn’t understand, but there were some knowledgeable viewers in the live stream.

After watching a high-definition close-up of the float, Blue Sky Blue typed in the public chat, “Darn, Feng Bro’s spot has been invaded by Rlarge Flower Carps!”

“It really looks like it.

The fry are the debris of Rlarge Flower Carps; just don’t know how big they are.

I’ve heard there are big ones in here!”

“Give me a break!

Once those things enter a spot, all the other fish take off!

Nonsense!”

As one of the four major domestic fish, the Rlarge Flower Carp’s cultivation is quite widespread, but it’s not particularly favored by ordinary fishermen.

It is a surface fish, but that doesn’t mean it won’t go to the bottom.

Once it enters a spot, other fish species will stay away.

The up and down movement of Yue Feng’s float and the scattered fish fry were both signs of Rlarge Flower Carp entering the spot, but since Yue Feng never caught such fish since binding the system, he lacked judgment in this area.

After a few more seconds, Yue Feng teased the tip of his rod a few times but still got no bite, so he baited the hook with ragworm, put loose powder in a small triangular shape on the upper hook, and cast again.

At this point in the fishing competition, worrying about the amount of bait didn’t matter much; as long as he could catch any fish, that’d be enough.

This was why Yue Feng arranged his double baits this way.

The float turned over as usual, then slowly and steadily began to sink.

When it reached about ten scales underwater, it eerily stopped!

A bite??

Yue Feng didn’t rush to lift the rod and set the hook but continued to observe the float’s movements.

The float was still trembling up and down slowly, just as before.

Yue Feng couldn’t hold back any longer; he gently twitched the rod to give it a shake and see.

The moment the float moved, without waiting for it to return to position, there was a sudden ‘plunk’ indicating a downward bite.

However, this was only slightly more than a scale’s worth of movement on the float, and not nearly as fierce as a carp’s bite.

Having detected a bite, Yue Feng couldn’t hold back any longer.

He lifted the rod to set the hook.

Go!

Through the rod, he felt a significant resistance; lifting the rod made no difference, as if he had hooked into a piece of broken cloth or weeds.

At the moment of hooking the fish, Yue Feng felt something was off!

Darn, could it be a big one?

Since the double hooks hadn’t reached the bottom, they certainly weren’t snagged; what on earth was this thing!!

After about a second of stunned pause, the fish underwater began to exert force, unhesitatingly charging towards the center of the river.

Without even a thought, Yue Feng reflexively angled his rod to one side and, in a flash, plunged it into the water with a reversed rod maneuver.

The Reversed Rod, as a classic maneuver to control and turn the fish’s head around, was still very effective.

The fish, feeling the tug, slowly turned its head underwater.

Yue Feng felt the fish turn, and cautiously brought the rod back to a vertical position, then squatting low to the ground.

The fish’s initial burst of power during its sprint wasn’t very strong.

Slowly, it moved like a submarine, and after being led to turn around, it swam back and forth.

Yue Feng dared not pressure it further from above; he could only nervously control the fish.

Any slight deviation would make him immediately adjust the direction of the rod, fearing the hook might snap off mid-way.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the second surge of force hit!

Yue Feng repeated his previous action, once again plunging the rod into the water.

This time, the power was especially enduring.

The rod bent into a large arc, quivering as it was yanked downwards.

Yue Feng’s heart was almost in his throat.

With a 1.5 leader line, this desperate surge of power could mean the hook could snap off any second.

The next ten or so seconds felt as long as a century.

The fish’s onslaught slowed down.

Yue Feng’s heart was pounding violently in his chest as if about to burst out, unbelievable, it didn’t snap off!

He had withstood it, again.

After two consecutive bursts of effort, the big fish calmed down considerably, no longer fleeing towards the deep water but swimming back and forth within the range controlled by the rod.

The most dangerous phase after hooking the fish had passed.

Having endured this phase, the rest would be much steadier.

Yue Feng’s delicate control of the rod and techniques in playing the fish was exquisite, making sure to keep it mid-water without surfacing, leaving no chance for it to escape in fright.

About twenty minutes later, the big fish finally exhausted its strength.

Under the sun, Yue Feng, like a servant, cautiously played the fish, with sunlight directly shining on his face, his sunscreen clothing soaked with sweat.

Seeing the huge head of the fish emerging on the water surface, Yue Feng finally realized what he had caught, a Rlarge Flower Carp!

With its mouth opening upwards, bigger than an adult’s fist, it had little strength left, constantly choking on water at the surface and slowly being dragged towards the shore.

Before the fish turned belly up, Yue Feng would absolutely not rashly attempt to net the fish.

After a few gulps of water, the big fellow finally turned over.

Having flipped the fish over, Yue Feng scooped it up from the head end with the landing net, it effortlessly went in.

Seeing the fish in the net, Yue Feng let out a long sigh of relief—it hadn’t been easy!

It was not until he was removing the hook that Yue Feng realized why the fish, despite its ferocious struggles, did not snap off the hook.

One hook was in the fish’s mouth and the other was firmly lodged under the chin.

The 1.5 leader line was used as if it were a 3; both lines were securely hooked, so naturally the strength was much greater.

“Feng bro is too awesome!

To be able to land it!

Two big ones in a single qualifying competition!

This is record-breaking!”

“Never mind group champion, I reckon Feng bro might even become the overall champion of the qualifiers.

Those two big fellas must weigh at least forty pounds together.

The Rlarge Flower Carp seems even bigger than the last one!”

“There are just over ten minutes left in the competition, so let’s preemptively wish Feng bro victory in this match!”

Doll glanced at the public channel where everyone was discussing the recently caught Rlarge Flower Carp.

She naturally joined the conversation, saying, “The match ends in thirteen minutes, brothers in the live stream, don’t rush off now, yen.

If Feng bro wins this round, I’ll have him draw ten portions of today’s competition bait for the brothers in the live stream!”
