Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 470 Flying Rod
According to the instructions over the phone, the car arrived at the reservoir at 4:30, and there were already four or five people waiting.

It is a huge and very beautiful reservoir. The shrubs on both sides have grown to a depth of one meter. Only a small area at the entrance has been cleared and a cement platform has been built. There is also a management office next to it.

Several netizens were playing fishing at the pier below the management office.

"Brother Dong, I'm sorry I'm late." He immediately handed over a cigarette. "Someone fell into the river on the way and delayed us.

It would have taken more than half an hour to arrive, but it was delayed because of rescuing people.

"Haha, it's okay, Teacher Dahe, let me introduce you. This is my friend Xu Song and this is A Le." Brother Dong introduced both sides.

Qin Dahe walked over and shook hands politely. Seeing a fish guard by the reservoir, he asked, "How was your fishing this afternoon?"

"It's pretty good. I caught four bass."

"Haha, I dug a hole in the bridge at noon and caught more than 30 bass."

"Where are they?" More than thirty bass, it was really scary.

"Over there on Jinshan Avenue. I'll post the location on the forum later. You better hurry if you want to catch them."

The three of them took down their lure fishing rods. The biggest advantage of lure fishing is that you can go light and carry very little.

"Let's go on board and play inside."

"Should I bring a bucket? We might explode today."

"Just put it in the cabin."

A few people chatted and laughed as they boarded a cement boat. There was a diesel engine at the back, and Brother Dong started the boat with ease.

The silly kid held up the video camera and started filming, one segment at a time, and then went back to ask the pirated record dealer to help edit it.

There are several fallen trees to the side of the road. This kind of obstacle area is the favorite of lure anglers.

Dong Ge turned off the diesel engine and the boat stopped. "Everyone started taking turns rowing, and then others fished."

Qin Dahe took a look and found that everyone's wheels were basically imported, and now domestic wheels can't even achieve stable and smooth line feeding.

"Brothers, I'm going to shoot a teaching video. Anyone who wants to show their face can come and play with us." Qin Dahe said with a smile.

"Haha, okay, let me see how you do lure fishing. I just got the rod and it exploded just now." Brother Dong said with a smile.

The lure rods in the hands of everyone here are basically used as rock fishing rods to fish along the Yangtze River.

Nowadays, not many people in the mainland use lure rods, and soft-shelled turtle guns are more common.

Qin Dahe started talking a lot in front of the camera, starting with how to put on the fishing line, tie the leader and hang the bait.

This time we are floating, which makes it easier to show the effect.

Then he pointed to a bubble floating on the water surface, shook his wrist lightly, and the soft bait flew over and hit the bubble.

"Awesome." Brother Dong and the others gave a thumbs up.

From a distance of just over ten meters, he hit the target with one strike.

“Reeling in the line should be done rhythmically, with appropriate pauses.”

"Site selection is also important. Fish like structural areas, and fallen trees like this are perfect for this."

As the fishing line was reeled in, another cast was made, directly hitting the bottom of the tree along the water surface.

"Before the bait enters the water, you should prepare to brake and keep your fingers on it, otherwise the line will explode easily."

He reeled in the line rhythmically again, and the people around him were watching him operate.

Just after leaving the obstacle area, there was a big gap, and then he began to pull back violently.

“You must not let the fish run around in this kind of structure, otherwise they can easily get hung up on the snag and become unretrievable.”

Lift the rod, shake it twice, and repeat this action, without bothering the fish at the bottom of the water.

Soon, a black carp weighing about three pounds was pulled up.

He happily took off the fishhook.

Seeing him loading up the stocks, others also started to prepare to sell.

But they hook loaches, and fish them in mid-water or at the bottom, so they can catch mandarin fish and sea bass.

It's hot now, and no one can be sure in which water layer the fish are active.

Qin Dahe continued teaching here and began to talk about various fishing methods such as floating fishing, mid-water fishing and bottom fishing.

Unfortunately, the battery only lasted half an hour. I quickly tested it a few times, caught another sea bass, and then it turned off.

Then he also hung up the loach, and would definitely use live bait if there was one.

"Let's drive the boat to the center of the lake to fish for mandarin fish." It was already five o'clock, and we had to go back after playing for an hour.

"Let's go get some mandarin fish to eat."

The black carp and sea bass are not as delicious as the mandarin fish. He took the oar and started rowing.

When we reached the center of the lake, the sun shone obliquely, making our bodies feel hot.

I tried the lower water layer first, which was just over 20 meters deep. It was really deep.

"Pull the fish up slowly, or its internal organs will explode," he warned. At this depth, the internal organs of the fish will explode, leaving the exterior intact, with only the eyes bulging slightly.

However, once the internal organs rupture, they will quickly contaminate the fish meat, making it impossible to eat.

In deeper areas, there is a possibility of fried belly.

Several people nodded when they heard this and started casting their fishing rods.

Qin Dahe also caught a loach, found a direction and threw it out about thirty meters, and then reeled it in after it sank to the bottom.

When you pull it in, do it a little faster so that the loach can move along the mud at the bottom of the water and not easily get caught on obstacles.

There are two most important things to pay attention to when playing lure fishing: one is to avoid the line from breaking, and the other is to avoid getting stuck on the bottom.

Just like the braided fishing line set in his hand, a roll of 200 meters of fishing line costs more than yuan, and cents per meter.

If you are not careful, you will lose two sets, which means 120 yuan, and you will also lose the leader and soft bait.

"The goods are here." Xu Song suddenly shouted and started pulling the string excitedly.

As a result, the fishing rod flew out with a whoosh.

"Hurry, hurry up and chase after him."

Qin Dahe was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw this. He had just retrieved his fishing line and cast the rod over to hook the fish immediately. The fish had not yet run away.

"Predatory fish are very strong, I have to catch them next time." He began to reel in the line.

"Ce, the big truck won't be retracted." I felt something was wrong as soon as I turned the wheel.

"Erhu, take a picture. Wa'er, drive the boat over and collect your fishing line."

Such exciting occasions must be photographed.

"Haha, you still don't forget to take pictures at this time." Brother Dong was so happy that he took the initiative to drive the boat.

Because Qin Dahe's hook was stuck on the fishing rod, but the lure rod was locked when it was reeled in and could not be pulled back, he could only sail over.

After finally getting the fishing rod back, Xu Song finally breathed a sigh of relief. A set of rods cost more than 6,000 yuan, and he would be heartbroken to lose it.

"It's a giant." He chuckled and started to compete. "You guys go fishing first, it will probably take a while."

"Where did you catch them? Mandarin fish come in clumps, there must be some left."

"Over there, about twenty meters ahead."

After the location was pointed out, three rods with loaches on them were thrown over at the same time. The three brothers all worked in unison, thinking of catching some mandarin fish to eat.

Seeing that they had been beaten to the punch, others had no choice but to change direction, as it would be easier to cause trouble if they all tried at the same time.

After a while, the fishing rod in Qin Dahe's hand sank and the fish was caught.

Not feeling it, I reeled in the line violently, spinning the reel quickly with a bunch of knots on my belly, and a two-jin mandarin fish soon came up.

"Ce, you're quite strong."

Throw it into the cargo hold, hang a loach on it again and throw it out again.

From one nest, three brothers pulled up six mandarin fish of different sizes, all with smiles on their faces.

I cast two more rods, and only when I ran out of fish did I start to change direction.

"I'll take two away later, and you can eat the rest."

"Teacher Dahe is leaving tomorrow." Brother Dong took the cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath.

"Well, I miss the twins at home a little. I haven't seen them for a long time." He said without any concealment.

It was fine for a few days at first, but after that, I thought about it a lot every night before going to bed.

"Haha, why get married so early?"

"I'm free anyway, so it's a good idea to find a wife." Qin Dahe chuckled and sat down to rest.

Playing lure fishing is extremely tiring. After casting and reeling in for an hour, my fingers are sore.

"What kind of wife do you think I should find?" Dong Ge also sat down. He was already 25 years old and still not married, which was considered a heinous crime in that era.

"Life is good when your personalities complement each other. If you want to be happy, find someone who is docile."

You can't have your cake and eat it too. If you are greedy for pleasure and find a docile wife, it will be easy for you to go astray when no one is watching over you.

Before they started dating, Yanyan had a strong personality, and he was actually quite resistant to it. He thought that marrying a woman like this would make life good, but it would not be a good thing for the man himself.

In the days that followed, he might have brought out the habitual sacrifices that he had made as a couple in his previous life, which was extremely destructive to women of this era.

After a few interactions, Yanyan became completely devoted to him and started to act coquettishly and innocently. Plus, since she could make money, she didn't care much about him anymore.

If you want to fish, you can fish. If you want to contract a fish pond, you can contract a fish pond. I never object to buying things worth thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.

This mutual tolerance and pampering has resulted in the extremely deep relationship between the two now.

Brother Dong may have understood what he meant. He sighed, put out the cigarette butt and continued fishing.

As soon as Xu Song's fish was put on the boat, everyone exclaimed in surprise. It was a big mandarin fish weighing more than ten kilograms.
