Chapter 624 - 624 611 Big Marlin Fish

624: Chapter 611: Big Marlin Fish 624: Chapter 611: Big Marlin Fish From the first time he interacted with Yue Feng, Big Brother Gu had known that Yue Feng was very steady—not the kind who liked to joke around—so when he said the rod couldn’t be pulled back, it meant it truly couldn’t be pulled back.

Gu Qingtian immediately put down his own rod and came over to lend a hand.

The force underwater was huge, no longer within the traditional scope of reeling in a fish.

Gu Qingtian assisted by grabbing the fishing rod with one hand and opening the drag with the other to let the fish run away with the line for a distance before the two of them could actually get the rod back in their hands.

After releasing the drag, the clicking sound of the line paying out was continuous, and in a very short amount of time, half of the line in the reel had disappeared, still crazily paying out.

“What the hell is this thing?

We didn’t hook a whale, did we?”

Yue Feng, with his heart in his throat, clutched the fishing rod tightly and started to adjust the drag, letting the underwater fish run a little longer.

Four hundred meters of line on the reel was about to be cleared!

“Don’t know what fish it is, but the speed of the line paying out is very fast.

It must be some kind of large fish that swims very fast!

Set the drag to the maximum, I’ll help you on the side and give it a try!” Big Brother Gu commanded.

“Okay!”

Yue Feng responded immediately and quickly adjusted the drag to nearly locked, relying on the resistance of the reel to fight the fish.

The heavy-duty boat rod, coupled with an extra-large drum wheel—this setup would easily handle a fish weighing a couple hundred pounds.

But today, it seemed to be not quite enough.

After Yue Feng adjusted the drag, a casual surge of power from the big fish flattened the rod’s tip.

Yue Feng’s hands clung desperately to the rod, but he just couldn’t lift it.

As for the idea of lifting the rod and then reeling in the line?

Sorry, he couldn’t even lift it.

“Impossible, I can’t handle it by myself!

The strength is too exaggerated!” Yue Feng tried and immediately gave up.

Seeing this, Gu Qingtian stepped in behind Yue Feng to help lift the rod.

“Don’t panic, I’ll help you!

What the hell did we catch?

It’s acting so weird!”

Alone, a person’s strength was no match for the fish, but with Gu Qingtian, an experienced old hand, things became a bit more stable.

They barely managed to lift the rod a bit, but performing the actions of loosening the rod and properly reeling in was still very difficult.

While Yue Feng was turning red-faced from the big fish’s strain, the viewers in the live stream were going crazy.

“This is too bizarre!

What kind of fish has so much strength?

Could it really be a whale?”

“Sharks, whales, giant octopuses, sea monsters!

The ocean’s full of big critters!

Who knows what’s on Feng’s hook!”

“The two of them together can barely fight it; the fish can’t be that big.

If it were a whale, it would have towed the boat away!”

“Society’s Brother Feng, tough guy, not much for words, small scene, will stabilize it in minutes, just wait and see, he’ll haul it up eventually!”

The viewers in the live room had high expectations for Yue Feng, but after only a short while, Yue Feng felt his strength was nearly spent.

Bringing it up all by himself?

Impossible.

Yue Feng: “Big Brother Gu, I’m about to lose strength.

Let Adong prepare in advance.

We’ll take turns!”

“Alright!

Hand me the rod, and we’ll take turns playing the fish.

I’ll take the second leg!”

Gu Qingtian responded with a nod and steadily took the rod from Yue Feng’s hands.

Once the rod was in Gu Qingtian’s hands, it seemed a bit more obedient than when Yue Feng was handling it.

He inserted the rod butt into the groove on his belly, and with both hands on the higher part of the rod, he kept bending his knees and thrusting upward.

By using the coordinated strength of his waist and abdomen, he gradually reeled in the line that had been let out.

Experience really does count for something.

Although Yue Feng had also gotten the hang of it, he still wasn’t quite as skilled in dealing with such challenging situations.

Gu Qingtian, on the other hand, handled everything much more perfectly.

However, being adept didn’t mean it wasn’t exhausting.

Within less than twenty minutes, Gu Qingtian’s arms also began to tremble.

“Ah Dong, your turn!

I’ve got no strength left!”

Upon hearing the call, the deckhand Ah Dong deftly took over the rod from Gu Qingtian and continued the fight as the third up.

Ah Dong was actually about the same build as Yue Feng, both having proportionate figures, but his core strength was much greater than Yue Feng’s.

Watching him wrestling with the fish, he even seemed a bit more at ease than Gu Qingtian.

Ah Dong lasted quite a bit longer, roughly around half an hour, and then Yue Feng, who had gradually rested enough, took his turn again.

By this time, the fish had been fought for around an hour and a half already.

While they were reeling and playing the fish, Yue Feng had been continuously observing and learning.

When he took over the rod again, his motions and techniques in exerting force had clearly improved a great deal.

The fish’s strength was waning, and Yue Feng was able to match it.

“Brothers, we’ve been playing the fish for about an hour and a half now, taking turns at it, and this is my second time up!

Let’s try to pull the fish out in a relatively short time and show everyone who we’re dealing with!

My shirt and shorts are completely soaked!

This is just too much fun!”

Once he stabilized a bit, Yue Feng found the energy to interact with his live stream audience.

He continuously reeled in the line, and the amount of line left on the spool was at a relatively safe amount.

There seemed to be about seventy to eighty meters of line before the fish would surface.

Originally, Yue Feng thought that once the fish’s energy was spent, it wouldn’t put up much of a fight anymore.

However, after pulling in another ten or so meters, he discovered something new.

The fish underwater was no longer desperately fleeing into the deep sea but instead started to swim circles around the boat’s underside.

“Something’s not right.

What is this fish trying to do?” Yue Feng curiously asked.

“It’s trying to rub against the bottom of the boat!

Be careful, if you feel the direction of the force is wrong, move quickly.

You can’t let the line get abraded.

Even if the line was twice as thick, it would snap after being worn for a while!”

Yue Feng had previously encountered big fish rubbing against the boat’s bottom while playing them, but it wasn’t as serious as this time.

It seemed like the fish underwater knew that the line would break if it rubbed against the boat and was looking for every possible angle to abrade the line.

Fish might be smart, but they are still fish and are not as intelligent as humans.

Now that it had stopped diving into the deep, Yue Feng was under much less pressure.

Holding the rod, he walked around the deck, with one core thought in mind – not to let the fish break the line.

After about twenty minutes or so, the fish’s strength was mostly spent.

Seizing an opportunity when the big fish seemed more subdued, Yue Feng hunkered down and reeled in line vigorously, finally pulling the big fellow out of the water.

Under the high-definition night vision of the drone, a long and slender big fish leaped dramatically out of the water, splashing waves everywhere.

Gu Qingtian shone a light down to get a clear view of the big fish that had kept several strong men busy for two hours.

“It’s a Marlin!

A big Marlin!

Yue, ease the drag just a touch.

The fish is still swiping at the bait; don’t let it get off the hook!”
