Chapter 491 - 491 478 The Fluctuation of a Small Black Frame's Yin Drift

491: Chapter 478: The Fluctuation of a Small Black Frame’s Yin Drift 491: Chapter 478: The Fluctuation of a Small Black Frame’s Yin Drift Everyone can talk pretty, but the fish mood in the entire mixed breeding pond was far from optimistic.

Five minutes into the competition, not a single person had caught a fish!

Even those in relatively good spots like the big side and the middle waist had no luck.

After more than ten attempts, Yue Feng had not seen a single effective movement of the float, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Damn it, they said at lunch that the fish bites were bad around two o’clock in the afternoon this season, and I was somewhat prepared for it, but I didn’t expect the actual situation to be even worse than my worst expectations!

In an official competition with not a single bite, what to do?

The first round scored one point, but I can’t just sit and wait for death this round.

After another cast with no bites, Yue Feng opened his fishing box and took out an even more extreme set of lines.

The main line was 0.4, the sub-line 0.15, and the extremely thin sleeve was size 2!

A 0.9g lead-system custom-made handcrafted Peacock Feather Float.

This level of setup was not for fishing normal bites, but for catching breathing bites.

What’s a breathing bite?

It’s the subtle movement when a fish moves normally in the water, stops, and constantly opens and closes its mouth to swallow water and filter oxygen.

If the line assembly is very small and the bait is in very good condition, there is a chance of the hook being sucked into the mouth.

After switching to the new line assembly, Yue Feng put aside the Loose Powder and the regular Ragworm.

He opened his fishing box, took out a base bait mix from various particle powders, then opened a package of Lasi Powder and added at least half as much of it.

He then added Lasi Powder and snowflake sheets to make the basic bait into a very good condition and extremely lightweight lure.

This kind of lure felt almost like cotton in hand; even after being gathered and squeezed to expel the air, it still seemed fluffy.

With a double hook skinning lightly pulled, only a rather full bait ball was left clinging to the hook’s tip.

After switching to the newly made ultra-light lure, Yue Feng recast his line into the water.

Using a thinner line, a lighter float, and lighter bait all combined to create a phenomenon seldom seen in regular Ragworm fishing.

The float slowly turned over, and then began a long, gentle descent.

One cast down, it took the float at least a whole twenty seconds just to turn over and get into position!

During this time, Yue Feng stared at the float without blinking an eye, not missing any slight movement.

“Which of you big brothers can tell me, what fishing method is Feng using now?

He switched lines and made new lures?

Why does it feel like that tiny bit of bait on the hook is useless?”

“Can’t see the line size clearly, but the hook must be very small, right?

Isn’t mixed breeding mainly about medium-sized carps?

Can such a small hook work?”

“Considering how slowly the float turns and sets, Feng seems to be catching bites during the cast?”

Under the high definition camera, every little detail was visible to the girl, but she also couldn’t understand what it all meant!

Following that, Yue Feng averaged about one cast per minute, but the float still showed no signs of activity.

“Dammit, it’s tough, can’t I trick at least one?” Yue Feng muttered to himself, casually pushing the lead skin up about thirty centimeters, flinging the lead up as well.

This time, after the float turned over, its descent became even slower!

After applying the flying lead technique, the float finally showed the first sign.

When the float had just flipped over and started sinking, it gave a very light hint with a slight downward movement of a tiny black mark, a shadowy drift.

The scale marks on the Crucian Carp Float were originally quite small, and the tiny black marks within each scale division were even smaller.

Only Yue Feng’s unparalleled vision could catch such a subtle movement; an ordinary person might not even notice it happening.

Resisting the urge to lift the rod immediately, he teased the rod tip after the float had settled into place, but still elicited no response.

Carefully, Yue Feng slowly lifted the rod and repeated the casting technique, sending the line back into the water.

This time, at the position where the fish had taken the bait on the previous cast, Yue Feng tensed up.

If there was another subtle movement, he would hesitate no longer, but snatch it up directly!

Luck exploded.

Near this layer of water, another delicate bite occurred in the shadow drift.

Yue Feng held the rod’s handle against his palm, merely twitching it a bit and gently lifting it upward to perform the fish-stabbing action!

The force transmitted through the rod tip confirmed to Yue Feng that he had hooked a fish!

The fishing line was extremely thin; after hooking the fish, he dared not make any abrupt movements.

Even though the 0.15 diameter line produced by the system was twice as strong as the nylon lines on the market, it had a tensile value roughly equivalent to a 0.2 diameter nylon line.

With such a fine line, there was no chance of overpowering the fish; it required a very delicate touch to play the fish.

This was when Yue Feng’s basic fishing skills, especially his ability to play the fish, really shone through.

He gently gripped the rod and bent it, being extremely cautious to sense the direction of the fish’s thrust underwater.

He bypassed holding the larger sections of the rod and gripped the second section instead, trying to unload the force as much as possible.

The fish on the line was not very large, just a half-pound slippery old carp.

After a few rounds back and forth, the fish, out of energy, surfaced and was safely scooped into Yue Feng’s net.

While unhooking the fish, Yue Feng specifically examined the place where the hook was set in the mouth – just as he had anticipated, the hook was at the outermost edge of the lips, thin as a leaf of leek!

“Damn!

Got a fish!

Did anyone see the bite on that fish just now?”

“Was it just blind luck?

I didn’t see the bite at all!”

“Doesn’t seem like it.

Brother Feng was very cautious when he struck the fish just now.

It looked like he had been prepared for that moment.”

“Dammit, this afternoon’s competition has hit my blind spot in fishing skills.

Can any fishing pro enlighten me?

I’m totally lost!”

“You’re not alone, upstairs.

I’m lost, too!”

“Don’t understand +!”

Mysterious Person: “Just now, while the float was descending, it gave a slight movement of a tiny black mark’s breadth in the shadow drift.

In fact, this sign had already appeared on the previous cast when the fish took the bait, but Brother Feng didn’t strike.

When a similar movement occurred in the same spot on the second cast, that’s when he lifted the rod to hook the fish!”

“What the heck?

A tiny black mark’s breadth of shadow drift?

How is one supposed to see that?

Mysterious Person bro, I know you wouldn’t lie, but can an ordinary person actually spot such a subtle movement with the naked eye?”

“Upstairs is getting caught up in details.

Last match Brother Feng was fishing blindfolded.

Just because ordinary people can’t do it doesn’t mean Brother Feng can’t!”

“Too savage, just a tiny black mark and he hooks a fish??”

Indeed, under the current trolling conditions and the extreme behavior of the carp, the taking of bait only involved movement of a tiny black mark.

Having detected that and being lucky, there was a chance to hook the fish.

If the fishing line had been just a bit thicker, the movement might not have occurred, let alone the bite.

After successfully beginning the competition, Yue Feng immediately made a targeted adjustment.

Since the fish had taken the bait at higher positions in the previous two casts, he estimated through the float scale that they must be at least fifteen to twenty centimeters off the bottom.

He decided not to use the lead weight anymore and switched to a lift float, trying off-bottom fishing to search for the layer where the fish were!
