Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 1043 Fishing still depends on luck
Ding Chongshan was a little nervous. He had just hit the bottom, and for five or six seconds, the lead weight dragged the hook and remained on the seabed.

Hanging bottom?

Or what about not hanging the bottom?

Ding Chongshan often went fishing at sea when he was young and was very experienced. He knew that in a situation like this, as long as the hook was not stuck to the bottom, there was a chance that a fish would take the bait.

"what!"

"Ding Chongshan!"

"I say, what's going on with you? You've hit the bottom, so why are you still afraid to pull it up? Are you worried about getting stuck?"

As soon as Lin Zuhua saw Ding Chongshan's expression, he knew what was going on. He must be worried about getting into trouble.

Ding Chongshan turned his head and saw that Lin Zuhua had already been pulled to the bottom of the sea. There was no fish taking the bait at this moment, so there was no hope.

"Humph!"

"What are you talking about? How could it possibly get stuck? There's no way any fish will take your hook. That depends on my rod!"

As Ding Chongshan spoke, he gently pushed the switch of the electric reel and reeled in a little line. At this moment, the rod suddenly dropped down without any warning, as if it had broken all of a sudden.

Ding Chongshan was not mentally prepared at all and was shocked, but he reacted very quickly and pushed down hard to the bottom.

The electric winch started to turn, but the sound was very sharp and the speed was very slow.

"Pull the pole!"

Zhao Dahai shouted loudly to remind Ding Chongshan.

Ding Chongshan's face suddenly changed and he realized what was going on. He held the rod with both hands and pulled it up hard. The fish was too big and was now exerting its strength, rushing into the sea desperately.

Ding Chongshan held the fishing rod with both hands and pulled it upwards with great force.

weight!
Very heavy!

Ding Chongshan's face changed. The fish was very big, and he couldn't even pull it up with both hands.

"stand up!"

Ding Chongshan got furious and roared, pulling with all his strength. The pole was very heavy, as if it was hanging on the earth, but he pulled it up inch by inch.

"Yo!"

"Ding Chongshan."

"Hanging on the bottom, right?"

……

“Is this fish really that big?”

……

"Dry!"

"No way? Did you really catch it?"

……

At first Lin Zuhua thought that Ding Chongshan was trapped, but soon he found that it was not the case. The fish caught was just very big and heavy.

"Dry!"

"How come you are so lucky?"

Lin Zuhua watched Ding Chongshan pull up the rod. The fish that was hooked was not only big in size, but also couldn't escape.

Ding Chongshan pulled up the pole, held on for five or six seconds, and then began to lower it.

The electric winch turned for a moment, less than half a meter, and then stopped again.

Ding Chongshan repeated this several times, and the hooked fish was pulled about seven or eight meters away from the seabed.

Ding Chongshan let out a long sigh, put down the pole and placed it on the gun mount.

"Hahaha!"

"Lin Zuhua."

"Don't you always brag to me about how good you are at fishing? See? Now we are on the same speedboat, your fishing spot is right next to mine, and now I have caught such a big fish, where is your fish?"

Ding Chongshan looked at Lin Zuhua triumphantly.

"It's just that I was lucky! Do you really think you're better at fishing than me?"

Lin Zuhua looked at the pole on the gun mount in front of Ding Chongshan, the curved arc, and the electric reel turning and stopping. The fish caught on the hook were really big. He was very envious and couldn't help cursing.

"what!"

"It's no use saying anything. I'm the one who caught the fish now, and you can only watch from the sidelines!"

Ding Chongshan became happier as he spoke. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, passed it around, lit one and took a deep puff.

"Correct!"

"It really doesn't matter what you say. It's amazing to catch a fish!"

Shi Guangming looked at the fish caught on the rod in front of Ding Chongshan and saw that it was really huge, definitely weighing more than 100 kilograms.

Ding Chongshan must have been very proud of himself for catching such a big fish in this place.

"Hey!"

"Alright alright!"

"What can we do about it? It's because old fellow Ding Chongshan really caught a fish!"

"You can't do that even if you don't accept it!"

Lin Zuhua really had no idea what to do. This is how people who go fishing at sea are. Whoever catches the fish is the best, and nothing you say will help.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou saw that Lin Zuhua had caught a fish, so they released the red bait and hit the bottom.

Ding Chongshan is Zhao Dahai's future father-in-law, so he must test it out on the first try of this speedboat fishing trip.

If everyone had knocked on the bottom together just now, the fish in the sea might have been frightened, or even if they had bitten the hook, they might not have bitten Ding Chongshan's hook.

"middle!"

"The fish are coming!"

……

"Is it big!"

"He weighs fifty or sixty pounds!"

……

Lin Zuhua looked at Zhong Shizhu and then at Liu Bin. It was bad enough that three people had caught fish, but now two more people had caught fish.

"What's going on? Why did you two, Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin, catch fish immediately after you knocked on the bottom?" Lin Zuhua was very unconvinced.

The speedboat is now more than adequately parked in this spot, and it appears there are now at least three fish.

Ding Chongshan and I were casting the line together and hitting the bottom. Ding Chongshan caught a fish, but I didn't. That was fine, it might be that there was only one fish in the sea and it happened to bite Ding Chongshan's hook.

Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou were the first to cast their lines and hit the bottom after him. Both Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin caught fish, and it seemed that the fish were not small at all.

There were clearly still fish in the sea, and why were there two of them? Why didn't they bite their own hooks, but had to bite the hooks of Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin?
"Lin Zuhua!"

"Didn't I just say that? Your fishing skills are not as good as mine. It seems that not only are you not as good as me, but you are also not as good as Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin!"

"Do you think it's as simple as just finding the bottom? There are many changes in techniques, such as hitting the bottom, the length of time, etc. Without such skills, how can you catch fish?"

"That's why you fished first but no fish took the bait, but Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin fished later and caught fish."

"Fishing requires skill!"

Ding Chongshan did not miss this opportunity. He stared at the fish on his fishing rod and stepped on the gas to mock Lin Zuhua.

Lin Zuhua really couldn't say a word at this moment.

Do Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin or even Ding Chongshan really have any techniques for fishing?
Maybe you really do have the skills, but this little bit of skills cannot determine whether there is a fish biting the hook or not, or maybe this little bit of skills makes little difference to you.

Ding Chongshan, Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin were able to catch fish, but they were just luckier than me.

But Ding Chongshan caught the fish, Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin started fishing after me and both caught fish, but I fished first and caught no fish. There was nothing I could say, and no matter how much I tried to argue, it was useless.

Zhong Shizhu and Liu Bin smiled but said nothing.

Ding Chongshan and Lin Zuhua have been friends for more than ten years and often go fishing together and argue. There is nothing wrong with this.

"This fish is so big!"

"One hundred and twenty kilograms, I think that's all!"

Zhao Shi lowered his head to look at the sea. The fish caught by Ding Chongshan was almost pulled to the surface of the water. He could vaguely see that it was very big. He casually took the fishing net and waited by the side.

"Uncle Zhao!"

"How can you do this job?"

Lei Dayou looked at his rod and saw no fish taking the bait. When he saw Zhao Shi picking up the scoop net, he immediately shouted. If it was a fish weighing 20 to 30 jin or even 50 to 60 jin, he didn't need to care. Zhao Shi could help him scoop up the fish, but the fish Ding Chongshan caught was over 100 jin. The weight of such a big fish is no joke, and the fish is alive. Don't shake its tail when scooping the fish. Zhao Shi can't handle it at his age.

Zhao Shi did not try to be brave. He handed the scoop net to Lei Da. With such a big fish, he really couldn't handle it.

Lei Dayou took the scoop net and waited for a while. Then he pulled the fish caught by Ding Chongshan out of the water. He grabbed the fish's head, called out to Ding Chongshan to change the line, and pulled it back with force, and the fish went into the scoop net.

Ding Chongshan immediately helped the two people pull the wooden handle of the scoop net and it took a while to pull it onto the speedboat.

"big!"

“This fish is really big!”

"what!"

"There's no need to fish much this time. Just catching this one fish is enough!"

Ding Chongshan was very excited. As he spoke, he used pliers to remove the hook hanging on the corner of the big blue spot's mouth.

Don’t think that you often went fishing at sea when you were young and caught a lot of fish, but fish of this size are very rare, and the number that can be caught can be counted on the fingers of two palms.

Lin Zuhua was very envious. The fish Ding Chongshan caught was definitely over 120 kilograms. It was a real big blue spot. Ding Chongshan was right. He would be satisfied if he could just catch a fish like this on this trip to the sea.

Lei Dayou walked back to his fishing spot and was about to put away the rod and strike the bottom again when he suddenly saw the rod shaking a few times. Without thinking much, he reached out and pushed the reel's line-reeling switch.

"No way?"

"Can you still catch fish in this condition? I really just caught a fish for nothing. And judging from the size of this fish, it should be quite big, at least 70 or 80 kilograms."

Lei Dayou really didn't expect that at a time like this, under this circumstance, there would still be a fish taking the bait, and he really didn't expect that he could catch this fish.

"Yo!"

"Lin Zuhua."

"I think you really have nothing to say now, right?"

When Ding Chongshan saw that Lei Dayou had a fish biting his hook, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. Now all the people fishing on the fishing boat had caught fish, except Lin Zuhua, who had no catch.

"Zhao Dahai."

"What's going on? Why did everyone catch fish, but I'm the only one who hasn't caught any fish?"

Lin Zuhua really couldn't stand it anymore, he turned his head to look at Zhao Dahai, it was true that Zhao Dahai didn't catch any fish, but Zhao Dahai didn't put down the rod. If he really put down the rod, he wouldn't be able to catch a single fish. At that time, he was the only one on the entire speedboat who didn't catch any fish.

"Boss Lin."

"How can there be any logic to such a thing? It's really just luck."

"We were all fishing on this speedboat, and everyone's fishing spots were only a meter or two apart. Some people caught fish, while others didn't. There was no need for any special skills."

"Most of the time, it's definitely just luck."

"There are fish in the sea, and there are a lot of them, but they won't catch your hooks, and no one can do anything about them."

"The distance between Uncle Dayou's rod and the seabed is no different. But it bit Uncle Dayou's hook and not yours. What can you do?"

Zhao Dahai smiled. There was really no way to explain this matter. There were definitely differences in techniques, but at least in this fishing trip, there was not much difference between Zhong Shizhu, Liu Bin and Lei Dayou, Lin Zuhua and Ding Chongshan. Those who didn't catch fish had worse luck, and those who did catch fish had better luck. That's it.

Lin Zuhua let out a long sigh. There really was nothing that could be done about this matter.

"Boss Lin."

"Why worry about not being able to catch fish? We have already caught so many fish in this first round. The fish here on the artificial islands and reefs are not only biting, but are biting very aggressively."

"It's not difficult to catch fish, and the chances of catching a big fish are very high."

"The thing we should worry about now is not whether we can catch fish, but whether we have the stamina to keep fishing until dark or even all night long."

Zhao Dahai looked at the fish finder. He had been to this spot to fish before and caught a lot of fish at this spot. Don’t think that Ding Chongshan, Liu Bin and Lei Da have all caught fish now, but there are probably still fish underneath.

Zhao Dahai thought for a while and asked Lin Zuhua to pull the line higher from the seabed, about five meters, and then let out the line to hit the bottom for the second time.

"Is this still useful?"

"Is there still fish in this part of the sea?"

Lin Zuhua was half-believing and half-doubting. Four fish had been caught in this place at once, and all of them were large, especially Ding Chongshan's fish, which was over 120 kilograms. The rest were 50 to 60 kilograms or 70 to 80 kilograms. Zhao Dahai did not move the speedboat. Logically speaking, it was unlikely that there would be any more fish in this place.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Zhao Dahai asked you to fish again, so just fish again. Even if there is nothing, so what? It only takes a few minutes."

"If we catch fish, wouldn't that be a big profit?"

Ding Chongshan took off the hook, pushed the big blue spot hard, slid into the live water tank, and seeing that Lin Zuhua didn't move, he shouted loudly.

Lin Zuhua thought about it and realized that this was the case. It didn’t take much effort to get the card. He reeled in a little line, about five meters, and let it out to hit the bottom.
