Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 467 Fishing for "Small Fish"

He went fishing for two days in Wuhan again. The fishing spot was crowded with anglers, and several netizens followed him.

After visiting Jinyin Lake once, he drove him for more than an hour to an unknown reservoir.

This trip made me fully realize how amazing the resources in Hubei are. I fished for four days and caught a lot of fish for four days.

There wasn't a single day when their catch was less than 100 kilograms, and all three brothers had a great time fishing.

During this period, he also met many friends, and even two professional anglers came to him to ask for advice on platform fishing techniques.

For now, Qin Dahe is unique in the application of Taiwan fishing.

In the era of information explosion, much of the knowledge we take for granted may have been summarized by others over several years or even decades.

Even a certain competitive fishing master with thick eyebrows and big eyes came to him and invited him to give a class at the fishing school and get to know him.

After chatting for a few sentences, Qin Dahe understood that they wanted him to get involved in the fishing gear circle.

Everyone adjusted the prices of fishing gear and bait together, promoted some anglers, and cooperated and competed with each other.

On the other hand, it is also a recognition of the strength of Dahe Fishing Gear.

A small workshop made its way into their base camp by selling silver carp and bighead carp bait.

Qin Dahe politely invited people to dinner and boasted about the development of the fishing gear industry.

He said that he was far away in Anhui, so cooperation would not be so convenient. In the early stage, the focus should still be on development, and everyone should work together to expand the market.

I will never be involved in the business world in this life, but I still have to keep my reputation.

When the factory is built in the future, we will find a professional manager to deal with them.

It’s so relaxing to stay at home with my wife and children and go fishing.

As for the fishing school, I still went there for the sake of face.

I saw many masters who are well-known to later generations in the school, which shows how early the circle was formed.

As a non-staff member who had never participated in a competition, he kept a low profile throughout.

At this time in 02, there were still many people who enjoyed traditional fishing. He briefly talked about the pros and cons of platform fishing and traditional fishing.

He systematically repeated the knowledge about Taiwan fishing, and the school even had someone specifically recording his speech.

From equipment to bait flavor, from crucian carp to the four major carps and mandarin fish habits, etc., the fishing methods of Taiwan fishing are described in detail.

It’s better to spread these things as soon as possible. Laogui also has a fishing-related media company that specializes in recording teaching CDs, which will also help expand the market.

From lectures in the classroom to demonstrations by the river, Qin Dahe's eloquent speech made many professional anglers feel that the trip was worthwhile, and even some competitive fishing masters looked at him differently.

It turned out that they also thought that Qin Dahe became famous because he was lucky and caught a few big fish, and by chance he made bait for silver carp and bighead carp.

Because silver carp and bighead carp bait is so popular, we invited them here to promote it and give each other some face.

But after two hours of class, everyone was convinced that this was real skill.

At noon, he had a meal with those "students" who were in their twenties and thirties. He himself was only twenty-two.

To be honest, the atmosphere wasn't as comfortable as when he and some netizens were eating lunch boxes and bragging by the river.

He likes to smoke and chat with others together, sharing their fishing experiences and getting along like friends.

When fishing, showing envy or regret at the right time and having a happy day fishing together is much more meaningful than this kind of formal teaching.

But Taiwan fishing is just starting out now, so it is understandable that everyone is working together to expand the market.

I have to give him face for once, and the next day I turned around and made an appointment with my netizen to go fishing for "small fish".

In the early morning, dew still hung on the green grass, and it felt cool when it brushed against my legs.

The sun came out slightly, and a little bit of sunlight shone through the sky to the river, and the light instantly covered the water surface.

Three brothers and two netizens, a total of five people, walked along a small path to the edge of a river.

This is someone else's private land, and bringing them here is a courtesy.

"A Bing, is there a big crucian carp here?"

"A lot, including big crucian carp and carp." A black-faced man responded with a smile and continued walking forward.

After crossing another bush, we finally arrived.

I thought it was a remote place and no one would come here to fish, but it turned out that there were two old men sitting by the river.

He had a stool and a bucket, a fishing rod in his hand, and not even a landing net to be seen. It was obvious at a glance that he was doing traditional fishing.

Qin Dahe and his companions didn't bring much with them. Erhu and Hanwa cut some bamboo poles, and Qin Dahe brought some pure gold magic.

Then there were the red bucket, bench, line group and float, plus some bait and medicinal wine, and I didn’t even bring a fishing umbrella.

When going wild fishing in places with complex terrain, fishing umbrellas, fishing platforms, and fishing boxes are all unsuitable, and carrying them all the way will be tiring.

"Uncle, do you have any fish?" A Bing came forward and greeted him.

"I just sat down. I came here a little earlier than you." The uncle responded with a smile.

Qin Dahe stepped forward to hand out cigarettes and was a little surprised to see the fishing rod.

"Do you all use tandem rods for small fish?" he asked, turning to Ah Bing. "Well, there are rods made specifically for small fish by fishermen here. They're not cheap, but they're very useful for catching small fish." He opened his cloth bag, which also contained a tandem rod. "You can't buy them in fishing tackle stores, you have to come here to buy them."

I took A Bing's rod and took a look at it. I found that the workmanship was very fine. The winding parts were very tight. I estimated that it would be no problem to catch a fish of six or seven kilograms.

If you are fishing for small fish, six or seven kilograms is considered a big catch.

He returned the fishing rod and took out his own pure gold fishing rod, which was also a double fishing rod.

But I don't feel comfortable bragging about how valuable this fishing rod is. Fishing is about the catch, and equipment is the lowest.

Erhu is already preparing the bait. Today the bait and nest materials are all integrated, so it is not convenient to use earthworms to make the nest outside.

I added a little bit of fragrant bait and added two drops of medicine, and half a pound of bait was made.

The commercial bait is like this. The three of them can’t finish half a pound of bait in half a day.

The two netizens, A Bing and Long Ge, used local secret bait, which they got from the owner of a fishing tackle store.

After the bait is ready, break off half of it and start mixing it with mud, then divide it into three balls as nesting material.

Three brothers fished in three different places.

We set out before dawn and it's only half past six now. We came here just for leisure fishing.

Anyone who is free can come and take photos, and we can go fishing for some small fish together. In the afternoon, we will go to the reservoir to play lure fishing with others.

I picked up a tree branch and stuck it into the ground to serve as a support. After casting the rod, I left it alone because it would take some time for the fish to hatch.

Lighting up a cigarette and taking a puff of it is always the most anticipated moment when you start fishing.

The uncle and Brother Long next to them did the same, smoking quietly and waiting.

You may catch small fish but get no bite for a long time, or you may catch a lot of big crucian carp. Any situation is possible.

Everyone spoke much more quietly, for fear of startling the nesting fish and driving the big fish away.

This is the case with fishing in a small creek. If a few friends chat and laugh together by the river for a whole day, they will probably only be able to catch some small fish.

Fifteen minutes later, the silly kid took the first bite, and because he had a raw bamboo pole with him, he stabbed it directly.

More than three taels of big angji were put into the bucket, and the uncle felt a little envious when he saw it.

This kind of big angji is very rare and tastes very good when cooked.

Seeing that there were no bites, Qin Dahe simply put away his fishing rod. It takes at least half an hour to fish in the wild. Today everyone is using short rods, so just wait a while.

I went to the grass at the back, put some water in it, shook myself comfortably, and stretched.

The sun had risen completely, and it felt hot on my body. The ground was filled with a special smell of grass.

He was familiar with this smell, "Eight Root Grass" mixed with unknown shrubs and the buzzing of bees.

It’s not that beautiful. The scenery in the countryside becomes just like that after a while. The key is that the vast space makes people feel relaxed and comfortable.

In big cities, buildings are stacked on top of each other, and the flatness is extremely high. Even houses that can be exposed to sunlight all day long are sold at high prices by developers.

After I got back, I saw an uncle fishing.

He went over with a scoop net, a giant one at that. He didn't have a small one at all.

"Uncle, pull it over here."

"It won't work now. I need to keep swaying for a while. The rod can't hold up."

Qin Dahe nodded and didn't leave. He just stood by and watched people fishing.

It was a big carp, and one move told me it weighed more than four pounds. The uncle followed it for fear of the rod breaking.

I guess the fishing line is also below 1.0, otherwise they wouldn’t be so cautious.

The fish bit down again, but unexpectedly this time it cut the line directly. The old man almost fell down, but fortunately he was quick to catch himself.

"Uncle, what size line did you bring?" The rod feels quite soft, how come it is so easy to cut.

"Line 0.4." The uncle sat down awkwardly and re-tied the line.

Qin Dahe: “.”

Strategy, this is specifically for small fish, not considering big fish, no wonder I didn’t even bring a landing net.

But fishing is always full of surprises, and no one knows what the next thing you'll catch.

When I returned to the fishing spot and saw the smell of fish in the nest, my eyes lit up with joy and I started to put bait on the hook and cast the rod.

He used a No. 0.8 leader line and also wanted to catch a few wild big crucian carp and bring them back to the food stall for processing in the evening.

I ate at the food stall opposite the hotel for three days without getting tired of it. The food was cooked very well, especially the crayfish, which was delicious.

When the rod is thrown into the water, the thin-tail float quickly stands up, revealing a little more than an eye and a half.

A Bing said that there are abundant resources here, and he is not going to pay too much attention to the float, resources are king.

After three or four minutes, when he was about to change the bait, he suddenly hit the float and immediately picked up the rod.
