687: Chapter 674: Marvelous Skills 687: Chapter 674: Marvelous Skills Yue Feng: “Is it just about precise casting?

The moves you made earlier are merely child’s play, not worth me secretly filming!

In fact, my phone is broadcasting live, not recording!

Your very impolite farce is being watched by tens of thousands of people right now!”

“Damn it, you arrogant man, to say precise casting is child’s play!”

“This is the most disrespectful provocation!”

“Joe!

Perhaps it would be better to have your security throw this arrogant man out!”

Yue Feng smiled: “I have already apologized for my mistake!

If you can’t accept that, there’s nothing I can do!

Besides, this casting skill is indeed very simple.

If you don’t believe me, I can demonstrate it for you!”

At this moment, Zhang Lin discreetly pulled Yue Feng, signaling him with his eyes not to provoke this American, but Yue Feng remained unmoved.

What an international joke, if it were about complex fishing conditions or the special use of particular fishing gear, Yue Feng might not be familiar.

Precise casting like this, for Yue Feng, was something he could do blindfolded with his master-level casting skill.

“Give him my fishing rod, I don’t believe he can do it as easily as he claims!” said one of the tall, thin white youths.

“Right, give him a chance!

The chance to make a fool of himself in public!”

The heckling group, who loved to watch the trouble, once again made a racket, signaling for someone to hand the fishing rod to Yue Feng.

The person did so, passing the fishing rod into Yue Feng’s hands.

Yue Feng fearlessly took the rod and glanced at it.

It was a M-action pistol grip segmented lure fishing rod of a brand that Yue Feng didn’t recognize, 2.1 m in length.

It felt good in his hand, and there was a high-end Shimano water drop reel on the seat, which looked to be quite valuable.

With the rod in hand, Yue Feng didn’t start casting immediately.

Instead, he pointed the tip at a 60-degree angle to the sky, released the line release switch, and checked the speed at which the line came off.

The rate at which the line came off was set almost perfectly, the line tended towards a constant speed in free fall.

Yue Feng thought for a moment, then loosened the drag adjustment slightly with a flick of his hand.

In this state, the drag would be looser; theoretically, the line would come off more smoothly and could be cast further.

However, it demanded more from the angler, the margin for error was small, and a moment’s inattention could result in a ‘bird’s nest’ of tangled line.

“Are you sure you know how to lure fish?

What a clumsy line speed adjustment method!”

“Ha, Pete, this is the first time I’ve seen someone use your baby this way!

I bet he won’t make it past one cast before you’ll have a whole plate of spaghetti!”

The onlooking Americans scoffed at Yue Feng’s technique, seemingly foreseeing Yue Feng’s rod exploding into a tangle of line.

Yue Feng, with a calm expression, asked, “Which marker?

I’m ready now!”

“That cup over there will do.

If you manage to cast into it once in two tries, consider it a pass!

But let me remind you, the line that Pete uses is quite expensive.

If it gets damaged due to your improper handling, you’ll have to pay for it!”

Joe was actually quite responsive, pointing out a wide-mouthed cup six or seven meters away, and reminding Yue Feng once again of the potential risk.

Yue Feng nodded and smiled, quickly scanning the target with the corner of his eye.

With a flick of his wrist, he swung the rod horizontally, and the blade lure flew out, landing with a plop, precisely inside the cup that Joe had indicated.

Now, the same Americans who had been making cynical comments were dumbfounded.

The casting method used by Yue Feng was a favorite among top anglers, involving a sidearm-like cast with wrist action.

This technique involved a smaller range of motion and convenient application of force, but it usually affected accuracy.

Especially in areas with overhead obstructions, it was quite practical.

Before the group of Americans could speak, Yue Feng smiled and said, “This distance is too easy; I could do it with my eyes closed!”

As he spoke, the line and lure had already been reeled back in.

Yue Feng turned to look at Qiao behind him, turned his back to the target, flicked his wrist, and cast again.

With a plop, the lure once again landed precisely in the wide-mouth bottle.

This time, even Qiao’s eyes widened in disbelief — a precise blind cast!

At this distance, making a straight cast with a hundred percent accuracy is something many high-end anglers here could achieve!

But to cast blindly without using eyes to adjust, the difficulty is at least ten times, a hundred times greater.

If Qiao hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.

What shocked Qiao the most was Yue Feng’s mindset while casting the rod, the kind of confidence of someone who knows they’ll hit the target with absolute certainty — only a master with great confidence in their own skills could exhibit such behavior.

“The distance is too close, how about we try something farther?

When it comes to the Lure Fishing Method, we Chinese anglers indeed started later, but that’s not a reason to be ridiculed!

Let me leave you with a saying, ‘There’s always someone better out there, and a higher sky above.'”

While speaking, Yue Feng chose the farthest point, fully loosened the fine-tuning, and with a flick of his arm, the lure shot out with a shadowy trail at high speed.

Ding!

The triple hook on the blade lure precisely hooked onto a decorative wire hanging mid-air on a wall dozens of meters away, and the entire fishing line, without any reeling in, was taut as a straight line, with the distance error not exceeding ten centimeters.

After making that cast, Yue Feng didn’t reel in the line but casually handed the rod back to Pete and turned to leave.

It was only after Yue Feng and the children, along with Zhang Lin, had left that Qiao seemed to realize something and hurried towards the location where the lure was hooked.

When he saw the triple hook precisely hanging on the wire, Qiao was beyond words.

This was not a random cast followed by reeling in to hook the target; it was a case of extreme precision that seemed theoretically possible only.

Anyone who has used a water drop wheel knows that it is designed to be more precise than drum or spinning reels, but at the same time, it is much more difficult to use than spinning reels.

There are also masters of the water drop wheel who completely release the line damper during use, relying solely on feel to control the line, but precisely controlling the length of the line is difficult, and a few meters error is quite normal.

But for Yue Feng, from the landing point of the lure to where he stood, the PE line was virtually straight, with an error of less than ten centimeters — his control over the line was insanely accurate.

“WTF!”

“What did I just see, it must be an illusion!”

“Does anyone know that Chinese guy just now?

I want to buy him a drink!”

Hearing the members’ discussions, Qiao’s mind flickered with a vague memory, as Yue Feng’s turning silhouette overlapped completely with the protagonist in a video he had seen on the forum.

It’s him!

That magical Chinese kid who broke three world records in a few months!

…

On the other side, Yue Feng’s trio, their mood dampened by the rudeness of the Americans, prepared to settle the bill and leave.

Having witnessed Yue Feng’s performance from start to finish, Zhang Lin had completely turned into a fanboy, losing the last shred of his adult composure.

“Wow, Feng, how did you do that?

That’s so exaggerated!

Turning your head and precisely casting to a target six or seven meters away!

Can you tell me how you did it?”

Yue Feng grinned and replied, “Just practice a lot.

With enough practice, it becomes instinctive — just like eating and drinking, you naturally can do it.”

“By the way, that last move, was it a mistake?

It looked like you cast too far and hooked onto the wire in midair!” Zhang Lin continued to inquire.

Fengfeng couldn’t hold back and explained, “It wasn’t a mistake; he intentionally chose that spot!

Exactly the distance of one line!

Those Americans will probably be shocked when they go to remove the lure!”
