Chapter 464 - 464 452 Fist-Sized Fish Bubbles

464: Chapter 452: Fist-Sized Fish Bubbles 464: Chapter 452: Fist-Sized Fish Bubbles After several more rounds of play, Yue Feng brought up the fifth Qing fish.

This fish wasn’t very big, only about seventeen or eighteen pounds, but looking at the color and body shape, it was quite different from the other fish that were caught.

If I’m not mistaken, this fish must be wild from the reservoir!

No wonder it wasn’t very big; the force of its struggle was much greater just now.

“Brothers, look at this fish.

Its color is a bit lighter, and its body is leaner and more robust.

There isn’t a single damaged scale or bleeding spot on it.

If I’m not mistaken, this should be a wild Qing fish!

We’ve managed to land it!”

Having enough time, Yue Feng wrapped the fish’s neck in a towel and showed off the catch to his live streaming audience.

After displaying his catch, Yue Feng removed the heavy-duty line directly.

Although it was not cut, it certainly had abrasions.

Fishing for big fish is different from small ones; any issue with the line must be replaced immediately to avoid any accidents!

Opening the Fishing Box, Yue Feng casually took out a new size 10 large fish line, which he had previously bought from the System Mall using Points.

With Da Fei’s lesson in mind, it was very necessary to switch to a slightly thicker mainline.

Not giving any chance for the line to get entangled again!

Once the heavy line was replaced, the Lead Skin was taken off the old line, followed by the fish hook.

Qingxun Big Fish Hook, Yue Feng cut the line on the spot, tied it himself, a size seven leader line, 1.2 meters long, 40 centimeters hook distance — this was already the largest fishing line Yue Feng had brought with him!

It should be enough for fish up to a few dozen pounds.

Quickly replacing the new heavy line, Yue Feng found time to toss in a couple more spoonfuls of groundbait.

Only then did he calmly find the right depth, re-bait, and cast again.

Perhaps the chaotic scurrying of the two fish underwater had caused some disturbance to the groundbait spot, as after re-casting his rod, no matter how Yue Feng tried to lure them, there was no movement at the bait spot!

Dammit!

Stopping feeding right at this crucial moment!

Shit!

Muttering to himself, Yue Feng swiftly added another spoonful of groundbait.

The feeding pause lasted for about twenty minutes.

Other anglers began catching fish successively, with the team with the most trailing catches already having four, almost catching up to Yue Feng’s team.

Just when Yue Feng was feeling somewhat hopeless, suddenly a bubble as big as a fist emerged from the bottom of the water at the bait spot.

How big is a fist-sized bubble?

If it’s exhaled by a fish, it must be at least a hundred or so pounds.

For a moment, Yue Feng thought of the super-sized Big Qing fish from yesterday that almost got stuck in the rubber hose while being released.

No way!

If it’s such a big fella, I definitely can’t cast the rod too fully, or I won’t be able to lift the rod at all.

Even if it takes the bait, I won’t be able to reel it in.

The only outcome would be losing the hook and the fish getting away!

With that in mind, Yue Feng gently lifted the rod and swapped the hooks for fresh Legendary Corn, and then cast it out at a seven-tenths rod position.

A seven-tenths cast was at least half a meter shorter than the usual eight-tenths, but Yue Feng wasn’t too worried.

After all, the spread of bait from the feeding spoon was quite large, and half a meter was still near the bait spot, so there was a chance.

After patiently waiting for about ten minutes with no action, Yue Feng resisted the urge to twitch the rod and tease the float.

Such a large fish might be even more cautious, and any movement in the bait could scare it away.

Just when Yue Feng was on the verge of giving up, the float shook slightly, and five eyes appeared on the water’s surface.

They vanished without warning, just like that.

A complete submergence of the float!

Seeing the float disappear, Yue Feng was unusually calm this time.

After waiting for a second, he flicked his wrist to set the hook and confidently raised the rod.

The hook used for big fish was the Sturgeon Blade.

The edge of the blade was triangular, designed with the same philosophy as a bayonet.

This design endowed the fish hook with an extremely strong penetration ability.

With just a light exertion of force, 100% penetration was ensured, while also minimizing the pain of hooking the fish.

The creature underwater was momentarily stunned after getting hooked before it started to swim out towards the right.

Fortunately, Yue Feng had prepared himself after seeing the big water bubble, and he fully straightened the rod after hooking the fish.

The big fish hadn’t gone crazy with its power yet, but it was already putting a lot of pressure on Yue Feng.

The force underwater was like an old ox plowing the field—steady but not quick, even a bit leisurely, but incredibly difficult to control its direction.

While there was still enough leeway before the rod was in a tug-of-war position, Yue Feng preemptively planted the rod into the water.

Normally, it’s fine however one handles it, even if the fish gets away, but this was a competition; if he really managed to land that old grandfather fish, today’s points would be secured!

The early reversal of the rod to control direction worked, and after rushing out a few meters, the fish’s swimming path formed an arc and turned back.

From beginning to end, Yue Feng ensured his actions were as smooth as possible.

Now, with an hour and a half left until the end, there was a great chance to land the fish with perfect operation!

“Got one, Brother Feng’s got another one!

This one feels kinda big!”

“I have that feeling too, didn’t you see how especially careful Brother Feng is?”

“Don’t tell me he’s hooked a wild ‘pig’; I’ve heard this reservoir hasn’t been drained for decades!”

“There’s still more than an hour to go, take it slow; no rush!

Persistence is the key to victory!”

“Oh, if only we had a slip knot, this straightforward style is tough, if the fish powers through, it’s hard to handle, and it can escape in a blink of an eye!”

“Shut it, you jinx from upstairs!

He’s definitely going to land it!”

“Ah, my bad!

Just worried, you know!

Spitting three times!

Buddha bless, it will definitely be landed!”

In the first ten minutes after hooking the big fish, Yue Feng’s control over its condition was nearly perfect.

Each time before losing control, he anticipated and made the appropriate response, and he managed several times to guide the fish back.

But after fighting for so long, the fish’s power underwater showed no sign of weakening, seemingly unfazed by it all.

In the afternoon weather with the sun beating down on Yue Feng’s face, Yue Feng cradled the rod with both hands—a man and a fish locked in battle under the scorching conditions.

After around ten minutes, Yue Feng’s sunscreen clothing was completely soaked with sweat, but a conviction in his heart supported him, his power felt infinite.

In the midst of Yue Feng’s steadfast angling, the official broadcaster of the event organizer noticed something unusual on his side and soon moved over with their equipment.

“Hello, everyone!

This is the live scene of the Internet Celebrity Fishing Competition!

I’m your friend Mao Mao, and right now, we’re live streaming Yue Feng, an angler of the Internet Celebrity Competition, catching a big fish!

About fifteen minutes have passed since he started to fight the fish.

The sun is quite hot, and it’s visibly taking a toll on the angler’s stamina.

It’s unknown how much longer it will take to land the fish, let’s witness the entire process together!”

In the camera frame, Yue Feng was drenched in sweat, his features sharp, his gaze resolute, especially after unlocking Basic Fitness—his body modestly sculpted, muscles beginning to show form, and with the effort of reeling, his muscles were bulging, presenting a unique aesthetic.

Just at that moment, the assistant responsible for the live broadcast accidentally stepped on an empty mineral water bottle and nearly stumble.

He steadied himself, but the live broadcast tripod in his right hand wasn’t held securely and it clattered to the ground with a smack.

The next second, the fish in the water, startled by the noise, suddenly surged with force and darted deep into the water!

Feeling the impact of the force, only one thought crossed Yue Feng’s mind at that moment, it’s over!
