The fishing ground I opened has become a national leisure destination

Chapter 532 Four Championships
In fact, salmon fishing is more of a lure fishing, because salmon prefer to pursue active prey. The softness and dynamics of lure soft baits can simulate the dynamics of prey very well, which is very attractive to salmon.

In foreign desert island survival programs, many contestants use fake bait to catch salmon.

But there are real baits as well. Rice bran, corn and earthworms are all good baits, and there are also many commercial baits.

Since this is a traditional hand rod fishing, Chen's Fishing Gear naturally took out the enhanced directional bait. The hand rod is also a lightweight and very tough fishing rod. The fishing line has excellent wear resistance and can easily cope with the bite force of the salmon.

"In fact, in this salmon race, we have an advantage, which makes up for our disadvantage in lure fishing for bass." President Wang looked at the competition venue and the competition screen from time to time, looking very relaxed.

"Well, there is a great chance of winning this game, but we can't be careless." Chen Yuan nodded in agreement.

Foreign players are used to lure fishing for salmon, and they are indeed somewhat uncomfortable using traditional fishing rules, which is just like using lures in China.

This game should be considered the one with the biggest advantage for them, but the overall event was relatively balanced.

But we should never underestimate the strength of traditional foreign fishing. The strength of the ARK brand club can still bring great challenges to Chen's fishing gear.

There are also several brand teams that can bring considerable pressure.

If you want to win the game, you still need to focus and not make any mistakes.

"I believe in the Chen Club."

President Wang looked relaxed and smiling, and turned to look at the arena again, "I hope that Tianyuan Club can seize this opportunity, Laogui Huashi can completely stabilize their ranking, and Jinlongyu can kill everyone in the semi-finals."

In addition to the Chen Club, President Wang is also very concerned about the performance of other brand teams.

After the crucian carp fishing competition and the carp fishing competition, Chen's Club took first place without any surprise, but Tianyuan Club's results were not ideal, with the total points of the two games ranking only eleventh.

If the result in the first game was slightly better, I could still rank tenth, which was not far behind the top eight and there was still great hope. However, the result in the carp fishing competition was slightly worse, so that my total points score dropped one place.

If we can't take advantage of this game to narrow the gap, our hopes of reaching the main competition will be very slim.

Although this is only the first round of knockouts, and the results of the semi-finals and qualifying for the main competition will be re-planned, the overall strength level will be clear after one round of competition.

It will be very difficult to reverse the situation later.

"Tianyuan really needs to work harder. There will be no problem for Laogui and Hua to advance to the semi-finals, but it is almost impossible for them to make it to the main competition. The goal should be placed on the qualifying rounds." Chen Yuan analyzed according to President Wang's words.

As for other brand teams.

Jiadong Fishing Gear now ranks 41st in total points from the two games. If they can get good results in this game, bream fishing is also their strong point, and they have a good chance of advancing to the semi-finals.

Although Zhu Qing Fishing Tackle moved up two places and Golden Arowana Fishing Tackle made it into the top 50, there is still a big gap between them and the semi-finals.

All I can say is there is hope.

But to be able to achieve such results is also a very good result for the domestic teams as a whole in the first stage of the knockout stage.

The five major brand teams entered the semi-finals, and both the number and the proportion of the overall number of teams were above average, which can be said to be the country with the best record.

“Swoosh, swoosh~”

The competition was very intense. People raised their fishing rods from time to time. Various wonderful moments were replayed on the big screen. The rankings of the teams from various fishing gear brands changed from time to time, as if even the last second could change.

But the top position is very stable.

After Chen's Club seized the advantage at the start, it has never lost the top spot, and the gap with the rest has become increasingly larger, with extremely stable performance.

As expected, we won the salmon fishing competition in the end.

When the results were confirmed, Wang Heng and others couldn't help but clench their fists and cheer.

"If we win this match, we will have at least a three-point advantage. The last match of hand-pole fishing for bream is a fish species we are very familiar with, so we should have no problem playing normally."

The little fish king had a bright smile on his face.

They gathered at the rest area and were surrounded by countless media reporters, more than the previous two times.

After winning three games in a row, Chen Club is now the biggest favorite for the championship, especially since Chen Club has a very famous master in the lure circle.

If lure fishing for bass can achieve such results, it will only attract more attention.

Perhaps there are many viewers who don’t pay much attention to hand rod fishing. After all, the mainstream here is lure fishing. The reason they pay attention to this event is to wait for the last game.

But if Chen's Club can achieve good results in lure fishing, I believe there will be cheers from all over the place.

"We'll go back and have a rest after dinner, and pack our luggage for the game in the afternoon. After the game, we'll go directly to Palatka and stay there for two days."

After the interview, Chen Yuan took the athletes back to the hotel, reminding Wang Heng and others on the way.

The bream fishing competition in the afternoon will be the last one for hand rod fishing. After it ends, we will rush to the lure bass fishing competition in advance. The elimination round will be held tomorrow and the rematch will be held the day after tomorrow, so as to reduce the number of times we run back and forth.

"Only the first round of the rematch will be held, and we will return to the hand rod fishing competition. The second round of the rematch and the final will return to Palatka." Chen Yuan added.

"It's OK that the competition venues are not far away, but the journey of hundreds of kilometers is really tiring." The little fish king joked about the tiring schedule.

"As long as I can get good grades, it doesn't matter how far I travel. It's like as long as I have a mouth to feed, I can go to any place, no matter how remote it is." Wang Heng said with a smile.

For anglers, no matter how bad the weather is, how far the journey is, or how difficult it is to find a fishing spot, these are not reasons for them to stop.

As long as you dare to speak, nothing can stop you.

What's more, this is a competition. As long as you can win the competition, you can get rewards as high as hundreds of thousands of US dollars or millions of RMB, not to mention the glory and fame that comes with it.

It’s hundreds of kilometers, and you can even walk there, not to mention having a car to pick you up.

……

In the afternoon, the last hand rod fishing competition for bream started on time.

Bream is mainly distributed in Asia and is a very common freshwater fish in China. This fish can be seen in many fishing grounds, so domestic athletes have rich experience and skills in bream fishing.

In comparison, bream is not a common fish species abroad, and the fishing experience and skills in this area are relatively weak, which is also an advantage in China.

Its advantages are even greater than those of salmon fishing competitions.

Therefore, the performance advantage is obvious.

The Chen Club won another victory and was far ahead with a total score of four points, firmly occupying the first place. Even the Tianyuan Club successfully reached the ninth place by virtue of its advantages in salmon and bream fishing.

The final round of the top eight seemed imminent. Huashi finally reached the 20th place, Laogui reached the 28th place, and Jiadong Club successfully reached the 39th place, temporarily entering the semi-finals.

Zhuqing Fishing Tackle and Golden Arowana are both in the top 45, but their hopes of reaching the semi-finals are slim, not to mention the other brand teams. There is a high probability that there is only one last game left in this international competition.

"See you at the stadium tomorrow."

When Wang Heng and his team were celebrating their fourth consecutive victory, members of the ARK club came over to congratulate them, and then made an appointment with Gong Lei to meet at the bass fishing field tomorrow.

It seems that in the eyes of Greg Hake and others, the most anticipated part of this international competition is lure fishing for bass, and they are even more excited to compete with Gong Lei.

"See you tomorrow." Gong Lei smiled.

"The strength of this ARK club is really strong."

Looking at the departing figures of several athletes from the ARK Club, Wang Heng and others, who were originally somewhat excited, restrained their smiles and looked serious.

With the advantage of rich experience and skills in salmon and bream fishing, only Chen Fishing Gear firmly suppressed all others, while the results of other brand teams such as Tianyuan were inferior to it.

They won four events in a row, but were only four points ahead of ARK. Although they had a high margin of error in the last game, it still put a lot of pressure on them.

"Compared to bream and salmon, they are better at fishing for freshwater fish such as bass, carp and crucian carp."

Chen Yuan came over here, clapped his hands and reminded, "So we still have room for error in the first and second stages of the competition. We must give 200% of our performance in the final."

Wang Heng and the others turned around when they heard the voice and nodded heavily with serious expressions.

If winning the salmon and bream fishing competitions was a little easy, then winning the crucian carp and carp fishing competitions was difficult, especially the carp fishing competition, which was extremely dangerous and was almost reversed by ARK.

If they lose the lead in hand rod fishing, which is their best event, the entire stage will be very dangerous.

For now, the preliminaries and semi-finals are not a big problem, but once you enter the finals and really strive for the team and individual championships, any mistake may cause an irreparable disadvantage to the final result.

"But then again, we have the advantage now, so relax and don't put too much pressure on yourself." Chen Yuan changed the subject and patted Wang Heng and the others on the shoulders with a smile.

It is impossible for a competition to be without pressure. While allowing athletes to feel the pressure, it is also necessary to channel their pressure and achieve a balance.

"We will definitely make it to the main competition. Lure fishing for bass can adapt to a few games. Moreover, the fishing areas we can choose will be more flexible as time goes by. These are all advantages." Gong Lei also encouraged the team.

……

After packing up their luggage and equipment, the event team went directly from this venue to Palatka. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when they arrived near the bass fishing venue and arranged for check-in.

After putting away their luggage, members of each brand club immediately went to the location designated by the event group to have meals, and then returned to their rooms to rest.

The staff is preparing for the event.

Time quickly came to the next day. Chen Yuan and his team got up early, washed, and after breakfast, they came to the working place of the racing committee beside the St. Jones River.

All the staff of the event team had already arrived, and media workers from all sides had made pre-match preparations, and their number was even greater than in the previous two days.

It can be seen that bass fishing is indeed a more popular fishing sport locally.

The host is maintaining the order of the pre-match process, and the referee team is reminding the rules.

"First, draw the number corresponding to the competition water area." Wang Heng and his team went to the drawing area and drew the number of the competition water area one after another. The substitute player Xiao Yuwang rested on the side.

In terms of lure level, Gong Lei is definitely the undisputed number one, Cui Liang is also a top master in the country, and He Haibin is at the same level.

Wang Heng's level is not bad either, and Gong Lei is very optimistic about him. As for Wang Bin and Xiao Yuwang, they are a little worse, so either of them can be a substitute.

But in the first four hand rod competitions, Wang Bin's results were better than Xiaoyu Wang's, so Wang Bin's hope of pursuing personal results was greater than Xiaoyu Wang's, so Xiaoyu Wang gave the lure fishing opportunity to Wang Bin and did not fight for it.

"The boats for this competition are provided by the event group. Find your own fishing area, sign the entry form when boarding the boat, make sure the information is correct, and then wait for the event group observer to check and pay attention to his instructions."

After drawing the competition numbers, Gong Lei reminded everyone.

As for other competition rules, they have been mentioned in the previous competition process plan, and the competition team observers will also remind them when boarding the ship for inspection.

Gong Lei only reminded of fishing skills, "The most important thing about lure fishing for bass is to find the fish, and bass like to hide in complex waters and areas with changes in terrain structure, such as mountain walls, dead trees and rocks."

"Look for fish near rocks, water plants or in the shade of trees, or where there are lots of small fish. Be careful of obstacles."

This is a tip for finding fish.

There are also fishing techniques, mainly the techniques of pulling, swinging and spinning, which make the lure move to attract the bass to attack.

"The last game, keep the first place."

Wang Heng stretched out his hand, and the members shouted "Come on" at the same time, and then went to their respective fishing waters.

Whether it is fish finding skills or fishing skills, these have been mastered during training in China. What we can do at this moment is to do everything possible to catch fish.

The athletes went to their respective fishing waters one after another, and were checked by the observers for preparations to board the boats. The observers also turned on the cameras to focus on the front deck.

This is a must-have configuration for the competition. The fully functional camera provides a clear angle of professional fishing. The entire process will be recorded and saved, and finally handed over to the competition committee or the referee team of the event organizer to verify the results.

"dudu~"

As the start time arrived, the lure bass fishing competition officially began. Drones kept flying over the water area. A viewing area was set up at the check-in point, with a large screen showing the competition situation.

But the equipment is definitely not as good as that of international competitions. It is difficult to show the entire competition field on the big screen. There are only the score column and some fish pictures.

“Lure fishing for bass is our disadvantage.”

Looking at the competition screen, President Wang was not as relaxed as he was before when he was fishing with a hand rod. Although his face was still calm, it showed some worry.

"If we follow the BASS tournament rules, the disadvantage is not too big, but if we follow the FLW rules, the disadvantage will be greater for us." Chen Yuan was also a little worried.

BASS is a five-fish weighing competition system. No matter how many fish you catch, only the largest of the five can be retained as the competition weighing result.

But the FLW competition system is different. You weigh what you catch. As long as your catch meets the tournament weigh-in rules, all fish you catch can be accumulated.

The two different competition rules will lead to completely different fishing approaches for athletes.

When weighing five fish, you just need to be broad-minded and pursue as large a catch as possible, while when weighing as many fish as you catch, you not only need to consider the specifications, but also the quantity.
