Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 53 Silver Carp
This time we brought everything with us, so the on-site wiring team has everything they need.

I started with the 22+18 combination, that is, 22 for the main line and 18 for the sub-line. I made 6 pairs of sub-lines directly. I don’t believe that I can finish cutting them today. As long as the rod can hold up, there is a chance to catch a hundred-pound fish.

Of course, it's just a chance. A hundred-jin silver carp and bighead carp will definitely cut the line. That thing will rush much harder in the early stage than other fish of the same weight.

After tying the line, Qin Dahe went to check the bait again. There were about four pounds left, which was enough for tonight.

Fishing for silver carp and bighead carp consumes the most bait among all fishing methods.

In his previous life, if he smoked at the same frequency as yesterday, the bait alone would cost him hundreds of dollars a day.

"Dad, are you coming?"

"No, my arm can't take it. The kid is also very strong. He has been having seizures all morning and his face hasn't changed."

The silly kid smiled embarrassedly when he heard this. He ate a lot, so he was naturally strong.

However, this way of fishing is more tiring than fishing with a lump in your hand. Most people can't even lift their arms the next day after fishing for a day. Only old farmers like Qin's father have enough energy to continue fishing today.

The silly kid simply has good physical fitness and has been like this since he was a child. He never gets tired of eating and never gets tired of working.

After casting the first rod with full confidence, the silly kid also started moving.

The fish stopped biting in the morning, but the nest was still there. After he threw the bait, the fish smell (bubbles spit out by fish underwater) below began to churn.

Seeing this reaction, the three of them brightened up and were about to speak.

Sure enough, within a short while, both of their floats began to float up and down, and it was obvious that multiple silver carp and bighead carp were feeding underwater.

The two men looked at the float intently, holding the fishing rod with both hands, ready to hook the fish at any time.

Down one eye, up, down one eye, up, down two eyes.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The two men stabbed the fish at the same time with murderous intent, and the upward movement was very fast. The No. 18 leader line gave them great confidence.

"Separate, don't get entangled." He shouted and moved to the side. Both of them had hooked fish.

Even silver carp and bighead carp weighing more than ten pounds can exert very strong force. Although it will not break the line, it is difficult to control it at the moment of impact.

Three minutes later, he successfully brought a silver carp weighing about twelve pounds to the surface. Qin's father quickly took the scoop net to help him scoop it up, then turned around and stared at the silly boy again.

Qin Dahe lit a cigarette and looked at the fish on Hanwaer's side, estimating that it was almost done.

Two minutes later, Silly Kid also caught a fish, a silver carp weighing about 15 or 16 pounds.

Even if it's worth nothing, this fish is worth at least forty or fifty yuan.

The two men cast their rods into the water again, and when they saw the float continue to move, he immediately put out his cigarette.

One eye, half an eye, floating, one eye, half an eye.
"Cena, what's with the fish mouth?"

After two minutes of waiting, he couldn't bear it anymore and directly raised his rod to stab the fish, but he missed.

Put the bait back into the water and float it again at one or half an eye.

Suddenly, Silly Kid succeeded in spearing a fish again and immediately brought it to the side.

"You're not as good as a silly kid at fishing. If you don't have good equipment, where can you go fishing?" The old man looked down on him.

Qin Dahe was embarrassed and didn't say much. His fishing skills were actually pretty good, but they were black pit skills, and they all depended on bait and equipment.

This kind of wild fishing and waiting for fish to bite is definitely not as good as that of Hanwaer and Qin's father.

He's still learning how to find fish and use natural bait, not to mention waiting for fish in the wild. And finding the bottom requires many casts when fishing in the wild.

The fish that Hanwaer caught was quite big. It took him two changes of bait to finally catch it. It turned out to be another silver carp weighing more than 20 kilograms.

The No. 18 leader line is great, it reels in fish very quickly, and you don’t have to worry about cutting the leader line until the rod breaks.

One eye, floating, two eyes.
"call out!"

He caught a fish. Three minutes later he caught a silver carp weighing more than eight kilograms.

"There are so many big silver carp and bighead carp in this sluice." He said with emotion, the density is even greater than some black pits in later generations.

"Otherwise, you will know when you come here when it rains. There will be dense crowds of silver carp and bighead carp floating on the surface, and the big ones may weigh hundreds of kilograms." Qin's father said exaggeratedly.

However, Qin Dahe did not believe it completely. He thought there were probably silver carp and bighead carp weighing 60 to 70 kilograms, but those weighing over 100 kilograms were rare in the country, unless they were found in ancient reservoirs.

For example, in places like Danjiangkou and Xiaolangdi, giant bluefin bream weighing 200 kilograms can be found, and there is a high probability that silver carp and bighead carp weighing 100 kilograms can also be found.

It was not until four o'clock that Qin Dahe's arms were tired from falling, and he finally caught two silver carp.

He decided not to do it anymore. There were a lot of equipment required for stand-up fishing, and it would take them at least ten minutes to pack up the rods, fishing lines and other things.

The silly kid just cast the rod and then continued to watch.

The No. 22 main line was shining brightly in the water, and the No. sub-line was probably blocking the way too much, so we didn't catch many silver carp and bighead carp today.

If the fishing line is too thick, when the fish pecks at the bait horizontally or diagonally downward, the fishing line will not bend obviously and the hook cannot get in, which is commonly known as blocking the mouth.

Silver carp and bighead carp have weak feeding ability and cannot suck such a thick fishing line, so the fish bite is naturally weaker than yesterday.

There has been a period of time recently where the fish bite in Qin Dahe has been weak, with only a few fish appearing here and there. I guess it’s because the small silver carp and bighead carp are at the bottom.

At this time, the problem could be solved by changing to a thinner line, but he was too lazy to do so. It would be useless to catch any small silver carp and bighead carp, and the silver carp and bighead carp in his own crucian carp pond were enough.

Three minutes later, the silly kid suddenly stabbed a fish, and splashes of water instantly occurred.

There was a real splash, and a huge figure rushed out of the water and shook its head. If the silly kid had not reacted quickly and placed the rod horizontally, the line would have broken when the fish entered the water.

Qin Dahe knew it was a silver carp without even looking at the figure. Bighead carp are not so ferocious, and the timid ones would only dare to run away.

"Hold on, Ce." Qin Dahe quickly put down the half-finished fishing rod and hugged the silly kid's waist.

The GT in the water is no joke. This giant is at least 60+ cm tall, with a huge belly. When it exerts force, ordinary people can't withstand it.

It would be better if there was a pit ahead to give my feet leverage, but the riverbed here is all sand and mud, and it's easy to slip if you're not careful.

When the big silver carp rushed down, the silly kid held the rod horizontally, and when the fish rushed out, he held the rod upright again.

After a while, it actually began to dive underwater, moving left and right vividly.

When the tip of the rod enters the water, Hanwaer starts to horizontally move the rod. If he does not horizontally move the rod at this time, once the angle between the tip of the rod and the main section exceeds 180 degrees, the rod will definitely break.

This is not because the rod is of poor quality, but because the performance of the rod cannot be brought into play in this situation, which is an operational error.

Generally, people with less strength hold the rod horizontally when catching a big fish, or use tug-of-war to cut the line, or follow the fish into the water before they can erect the rod.

But the silly kid is naturally confident. Yesterday and today, he has already mastered the force habits of silver carp and bighead carp.

"Brother, the fish is big, hold it tight." The silly kid said through gritted teeth.

He is a man of 170 meters tall and weighs almost kilograms, but he actually began to feel tired. This shows how ferocious wild silver carp is.
