Chapter 802: Chapter 332: Twists and Turns_2

Faced with numerous puzzled viewers, Lin Yang naturally wasn’t going to explain anything.

But the cameraman behind him was quite proactive, immediately speaking into the camera with a smile.

"Fellow anglers, this isn’t just a small fish, it’s a baby fish, which is a very common small sea fish, and quite delicious especially in porridge, the taste is simply superb."

After his explanation, the viewers suddenly realized.

"But now the target fish in the competition is Black Seabream. Lin Yang is fishing for baby fish here. Is he planning to give up the competition?"

"Even if he doesn’t want to give up, what can he do, with this lousy fishing spot, wanting to continue would be pointless."

"Indeed, here even an Immortal couldn’t catch a Black Seabream, might as well just give up."

"Master Lin is really sober-minded, he knows right away today is a bust, so he directly gives up. That’s the mindset of a master, truly not something ordinary competitors can match."

In the live stream room, although Lin Yang currently has a score of 0, and very likely will finish with 0.

But everyone is praising Lin Yang.

Some praise his clarity of mind, not pursuing pointless efforts, some praise his good attitude, remaining calm and composed even in such a frustrating situation.

In short, he has the demeanor of a master.

This made many other competitors almost explode with frustration, how could this guy not catch a single fish and still be lauded by everyone?

We’re here striving tirelessly for the competition scores, yet he, just fooling around, gains more recognition.

While Lin Yang leisurely fishes for small fish, the other competitors are arduously competing.

The most intense are the anglers facing the ocean area, those anglers have luckily chosen better fishing spots, naturally cherishing this rare opportunity, striving for good scores in this round.

At this moment, quite a few people have started catching fish, one after another, large or small Black Seabreams are being caught by the competitors.

Black Seabream is a very common, inexpensive fish, not highly priced nor tasty, its biggest advantage is that it’s easy to catch, energetic.

So Black Seabream for some fishing enthusiasts is a very good choice, convenient for Little White to enjoy.

Anglers in the coastal area are mostly in a frenzy, Black Seabreams continuously getting hooked.

While the other two areas are much less lively.

Especially Lin Yang’s Huangpu River area, many anglers have gloomy faces, full of urgency.

"This water is too shallow, my float and leader are deeper than this."

"With this water depth even if we can fish, we won’t catch Black Seabream, this is just fate, our team is already on the verge of elimination in previous rounds, this round so unlucky, elimination seems inevitable."

"Not everyone is Lin Yang, he has the luxury not to hurry, but we’re really unlucky, after this match we’ll have to pack up and go home."

The whole Huangpu River area, aside from Lin Yang, was just a scene of dire distress.

The anglers in this area were all about to panic, while Lin Yang was leisurely fishing for small fish.

.....

Time slowly passed. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Soon, the other two areas’ competitions reached fever pitch.

The contestants at the river mouth were already catching fish till their hands cramped, many of them caught not just one but several weighing over a dozen pounds or even dozens of pounds.

This competition score definitely won’t be bad.

The anglers in the Yangtze River Waters were also reasonably successful, mostly catching the target fish.

However, in comparison, the fish there were smaller, rarely exceeding ten pounds.

The most unfortunate was still the Huangpu River side, seemingly no one caught the target fish, even if a few did, they were pitifully small.

"Based on my observations in various live stream rooms, currently, the biggest Black Seabream caught in Huangpu River area weighs just over a pound."

"Really miserable, seems in this round, the choice of fishing spot is too crucial."

"This round isn’t about skill, but luck, drawing a good fishing spot, basically guarantees a good performance, but those who drew Huangpu River side are simply cursed with bad luck."

While everyone was complaining, Lin Yang, who had been fishing all the while, slowly put away his small fishing rod and line.

Then he stood up and looked towards the direction of the river mouth.

"Almost there."

He said calmly.

In the live stream room, the spectators were completely baffled.

"What does that mean, almost there?"

"What is Master Lin looking at? Why is he not fishing anymore?"

"Why did he put away the small rod and take out a big one?"

"What does that mean? Is he planning to seriously start fishing now? But the conditions don’t allow for it, the water is so shallow, there are no big Blackheads, how to fish..."

While everyone was puzzled, a rumbling sound of waves came from afar, gradually approaching.

The tide was rising.

As the sound of waves approached, soon the anglers by the Huangpu River all showed surprised expressions.

Then their surprised expressions turned into ecstatic joy.

"The tide is rising, that’s great! As the tide comes, the water level also goes up!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Hahaha, the water level is rising, time to catch big Blackheads!"

"During the surge, the Blackhead will gather towards the river channel, this place will become an excellent fishing spot, and there’s still some competition time left, it seems there’s still a chance in this competition."

The anglers were extremely excited, rushing to cast their rods into the waves.

Originally, these anglers were almost desperate, thinking that this competition was their last one.

But unexpectedly, at the final stage, there’s a twist, since the tide is rising.

With the tide, surely many fish will enter the river channel, and Black Seabream is one of the fish species that likes to follow the tide into the river.

Moreover, after the tide rises, the water level in the river channel will rapidly increase, becoming suitable for fishing.

The competition time is just under an hour, although a bit short, it’s enough.

The anglers went crazy, fishing frantically, racing against time.

Soon, the water level at the Huangpu River segment’s fishing spots generally rose above one meter, and the level was still rapidly rising.

As the tide arrived, you could even see some fish flipping and splashing on the water’s surface.

During this rising water moment, fish are most active, for during the tide surge, the oxygen level in the water is extremely high.

Also, water from the ocean enters the river, sweeping in some food deposited on the shore and at the river bottom, providing a lot of food for the fish.

So many marine fish from shallow waters like to rush into the river during high tide to have a feast.

Thus, fish are easiest to catch at this time; they are not very cautious and will rush to grab the bait as soon as they see it.

One hungry angler after another quickly cast their rods to fish.

Soon, anglers on the Huangpu River track began to catch fish.

"I finally caught a fish!"

"Me too, it’s my first fish of the competition!"

"Wow, wow, I caught a ten-pound Blackhead, maybe there’s still hope in this competition!"

"Hurry up with the competition, there’s not much time left until it ends."

"Unexpectedly, there’s still a turning point in this competition, stop talking so much, just go for it!"

Anglers’ faces were filled with ecstatic joy, replacing their previous troubled expressions.

Of course, everyone felt a great sense of urgency since there wasn’t much time left in the competition and they were already far behind in other two regions.

They must quickly catch three Blackheads of adequate size within a short time to have a chance at a good result in this competition.

Swish, swish, swish!!!

Anglers in the Huangpu River area kept catching fish one after another, while Lin Yang started his formal fishing steadily.

At this moment, the water level in front of him had already risen.

Moreover, his location was underneath the sluice gate, where the fish swimming up from the sea stayed grouped, continuously swimming into the river channel, all the way to the sluice gate, where their path was cut off, thus gathering in large numbers here.

This suddenly turned Lin Yang’s originally worst fishing spot into a natural fish nest, filled with fish.

The camera even showed some big shadows beneath his position on the water surface, very noticeable, all large fish!

"Wow, what resources, Master Lin’s spot has directly become the best fishing spot!"

"You don’t even need to fish here, I feel like he could just net a few catches directly and grab quite a few fish."

"Really envious, didn’t expect Master Lin to have such great resources here."

"Only during the rising tide of the day can such a situation occur, and such a big tide doesn’t happen many times a year."

"Don’t forget, Master Lin’s fishing spot was left after everyone else had picked theirs, who would have thought it was actually the best spot in the audience, Master Lin indeed turned misfortune into fortune."

The audience discussed eagerly, while Lin Yang over there began a frenzy of catching.

There were too many fish below, he didn’t even need to bait, just dropping and lifting the rod would hook some fish eighty percent of the time.
