Chapter 794: Chapter 329: Widely Imitated_3

Sea Bass could grow up to 20 kilograms, which was already quite rare. It wasn’t because Sea Bass couldn’t grow larger, but because the local fishermen caught them so timely that most Sea Bass could not grow any bigger before being caught.

As for the Yellow croaker, on one hand, it was rare; on the other hand, it generally was smaller, rarely seeing one exceeding 10 kilograms.

But the Sea Red Spot was different, The distribution of the Sea Red Spot was relatively wider, including shallow water areas, where it tended to be smaller, but in deep water areas, it was more abundant and larger.

Moreover, due to the habits of the Sea Red Spot of hiding in deep-sea waters and amongst the rocks, it was generally hard to catch with traditional trawling or sticky nets.

Therefore, some Sea Red Spot in the deep sea could grow freely, and even those weighing over a hundred kilograms were not exaggerated.

Therefore, to improve results, after catching the other two types of fish, most participants focused their main target on the Sea Red Spot.

Because the Sea Red Spot was large, it was easier to achieve good results.

By then, Lin Yang had already caught the other two types of fish and shifted his focus to the last type, the Sea Red Spot.

Although he caught only one Sea Bass, it weighed more than 20 kilograms, ranking him among the top competitors, as it is quite rare for a Sea Bass to exceed 20 kilograms.

He had caught only one Yellow croaker weighing just over two kilograms, and although it wasn’t large, he did not continue fishing for Yellow croaker.

Because Yellow croakers were generally not very large, in this sea area and even across the entire maritime territory of our country, Yellow croaker was the most popular catch.

Therefore, everyone would try every possible method to catch them.

And precisely because of this, Yellow croaker hardly grew to be very large.

Generally, those weighing less than one kilogram were the most common, those over one kilogram were another price entirely, and those over two kilograms even higher priced; the heavier the Yellow croaker, the more expensive it was per unit.

However, overall, the weight of the Yellow croaker was just single digits, so there wasn’t much of a gap.

According to the rules of this competition, everyone needed to catch three target fish species, and only the largest one from each species was counted; then the total weight of these three fish determined the result, so even if there was a few kilograms difference in the Yellow croaker, it wouldn’t make much impact.

A Sea Red Spot could differ by dozens, if not hundreds, of kilograms, and Lin Yang was very aware of this, so after catching the Yellow croaker and the Sea Bass, he switched his focus to the Sea Red Spot.

He did not change his fishing spot, but simply switched his rod right where he had caught the Yellow croaker.

This fishing rod was one size larger than the one used for the Yellow croaker, more robust and powerful, and naturally, he also changed the fishing line to a visibly thicker one, that looked somewhat frightening.

It seemed that it wouldn’t break even if it were tied to a bull.

Such a huge rod and line setup was basically a sign of respect for the deep sea large grouper.

After adjusting the line, Lin Yang attached his exclusive bait, hooking up a massive octopus directly onto the giant hook.

Yes, it was an octopus.

This was Lin Yang’s secret bait specifically for catching Big Grouper, as octopus was crunchy, crispy, tender, and seemingly harmless.

But in fact, the octopus was somewhat of a dominant force in the sea.

Because the body of an octopus was actually very tough, and besides muscles, it was all a network of nerves, which can be said to be very developed and powerful.

The octopus’s eight tentacles were covered in suckers, with immense suction power, capable of adhering to objects weighing dozens of times its own weight.
