Fishing has a history of thousands of years in China.

Archaeologists have found in the study of ancient human sites and unearthed artifacts that in the ape-man ruins four or five hundred thousand years ago, there were various fish bones, which shows that human life and fish are closely related. At that time, fishing was only a means of survival, an instinct of survival, so it was impossible to give a meaning to leisure at this time.

With the development of society, people gradually no longer eat fish as their main food, and fishing activities at this time have taken on leisure or other special meanings.

"Jiang Taigong fishes - those who wish to take the bait", this is a well-known allusion. It can be seen that at that time, Jiang Taigong was not fishing for a living, but for entertainment or other reasons. This marks the beginning of at least the Shang and Zhou dynasties, when fishing has evolved from a means of subsistence to an elegant form of entertainment.

In modern society, after working five days a week, living in an environment of urban noise and air pollution, brain cells will be prone to premature fatigue and aging, and the mood will easily become irritable, increasing the risk of mental depression or other chronic diseases. When people bring fishing gear to the suburban waters to fish, they are bathed in the sunshine and overlook the green mountains and green fields in the picturesque nature, and the mood will be extraordinarily comfortable, and the fatigue of the whole body will be swept away, which can not only enhance physical strength, but also cultivate sentiment and self-cultivation.

In order to further improve people's competitive level and make all people fall in love with this noble leisure and health activity, the fishing competition has stepped onto the stage of history. In 1980, according to the wishes of the masses and the sports and entertainment characteristics of fishing, the State Sports Commission approved the establishment of the first local fishing association, the Xinwu Fishing Association.

In September 1983, led by the State Sports Commission and approved by the National Sports Federation, the Huaxia Fishing Association was formally established in Xinwu City, and the National Sports Commission decided to list fishing activities as a sports event. By the end of 1983, local fishing associations had been established in many provinces, cities and localities in China. The total number of fishing enthusiasts in China has exceeded 90 million. From September 2 to 4, 1984, the first national fishing competition was held in Beijing. By the end of 2003, 19 national fishing competitions had been held, and a large number of fishing competitions of different levels and scales were held by fishing associations of various provinces, municipalities and units, which were welcomed by people from all walks of life and the majority of fishing enthusiasts.

At the same time, the number of international friendly competitions is also increasing year by year, and the fishing association has specially formulated the rules and regulations of the fishing competition. Fishing associations at all levels across the country, as well as enterprises, social organizations, news units, etc., hold cup competitions, friendship competitions, celebrity competitions, and international invitational tournaments in an endless stream, such as the "Old Fisherman's Cup" competition, the "Fishing King Cup" competition, the Southeast Asia Fishing Invitational Tournament, the "Hook King Cup" crucian carp master competition, the "Duck Duck Cup" fishing invitational tournament, the "Golden Hundred Cup" Top Ten Anglers Communication Competition, the "Old Ghost Cup" National Fishing Grand Prix, the "Freshwater Fish Top Ten Fishing Yin" Communication Competition, the "38 Cup" Competition, and the "Jianlibao Cup" Fishing competitions such as the National Women's Fishing Tournament, which has been held since 2000, are widely held.

The vigorous development of these fishing competitions has created a new situation in China's fishing activities.

The third brother also seems to want to participate in competitive fishing competitions, but unfortunately, according to his own words, his strength does not allow him to participate in the competition.

In terms of money, he is not afraid of anyone, the fishing rod, no matter how expensive it is, has a head, with his net worth, it is not a problem to buy a set of top-level fishing gear. But who can participate in the competition, who is really short of money? At least everyone has the money for fishing gear, and in the case of similar tools, everyone is fighting for strength.

The third brother likes fishing, but he is just an ordinary fishing friend, if you want to say that the level is better than ordinary people, but compared with those professional players, he is definitely not good.

As mentioned earlier, fishing is a sport that is very good for the body. But at the same time, the physical requirements are not low, and the more professional the competition, the stronger the player, the greater the pressure, and the more difficult it is to win. Not even to win, it is not easy to be able to keep the game to the end. Don't look at fishing, it seems to be quite peaceful and peaceful, but in fact, the physical fitness requirements of the players are not low at all. It is not impossible for an ordinary person like the third brother to participate in professional competitions, but it definitely takes a long time of training and adjustment, and he does not have the kung fu or the energy, so the third brother can only think about professional competitions, and it is definitely impossible to participate.

Nowadays, fishing is a hobby for many people, including the third brother, but it is only in the stage of self-entertainment. I can't do a better job of raising my competitive level to a certain level.

Of course, if anyone really wants to fish well, or even pursue the path of a professional player, it is not impossible.

Any professional competition that gives the meaning of "competition" will inevitably be linked to "reward". Even fishing tournaments, which are more focused on "recreational", are no exception.

In most fishing tournaments in the past, the first place prize was usually a fishing rod, and to be honest, the prize was really limited. In recent years, however, the rewards and prize money for fishing tournaments have been increasing. Giving out bonuses has become a reward for many fishing tournaments. And this has gradually become a means of making a living for many "professional anglers".

In the past, the prize money for an ordinary fishing competition was no more than 1,000 yuan, and most of the contestants were amateur fishing enthusiasts. As the fishing industry moves towards "internationalization", the prize money of the tournament is also increasing. Nowadays, even if a "small" competitive fishing tournament is held, the total prize money is more than 10,000 yuan, which not only attracts many fishing enthusiasts, but also attracts many "professional anglers".

Generally, the basic salary of anglers is not very high, but they all participate on behalf of a certain fishing tackle company, and the prize money is calculated according to the quality of the performance. For each round played, the sponsor will reward them accordingly, and there will be a prize for each round that is promoted. For example, if an average "professional angler" participates in a major national competition, in addition to the prize money of the competition, the company represented will also have a large amount of money. For example, the company represented in the first round will be given 2,000, and then the next round will be 4,000, and so on, and in the final, it will be about 10,000 or 20,000

Not only that, the "professional angler" does not only take the prize money given by the sponsor, if it is a large-scale fishing competition, the overall champion will get nearly 200,000 yuan. Moreover, not only the champions will have high prize money, but the top eight will also have a lot of prize money. It is conceivable that the masters who participate in large-scale fishing competitions today have a total annual income of about hundreds of thousands, which is completely comparable to that of professional athletes.

However, fishing competitions across the country do not mean that all of them will have high prizes, in addition to large-scale competitions, there are countless small competitions every year, and the general prize money will be about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. There may only be 8 to 10 major national competitions in a year, which is a small number of games, but there is a lot of prize money.

In countless fishing competitions across the country, it is impossible to have a prize of more than 100,000 yuan or 100,000 yuan, and the types of competitions are also divided into competitive fishing competitions and recreational fishing competitions. However, competitive tournaments have a lot more prize money than casual tournaments. As long as it is a competitive competition, the prize money will basically be more than 10,000 yuan, and some competitions in the country will have a prize of more than 100,000 yuan. The most leisure is only about a few thousand yuan, and the competitive competition of 10,000 yuan is just a starting point.

However, some manufacturers will hold relatively high prizes for large-scale competitions in order to promote them. However, this kind of high-prize tournament format will not be like a normal competition. Some large-scale competitions will be divided into many divisions across the country, and then the top few in the competition area will play the finals, and the prize money for the finals is the highest.

Why is the prize money of a fishing tournament so high? Where does the prize money come from? All kinds of questions have given many fishing enthusiasts "their heads" to guess. In fact, how to set the prize money of a fishing competition, in the final analysis, mainly depends on the ability of the sponsor, the bigger the sponsor, the higher the natural prize money.

However, many manufacturers will choose to take over commercial events with a prize of about 10,000 yuan. However, if the prize money can be more than 100,000 yuan in fishing competitions, it is basically supported by the government. Or a competition hosted by a large manufacturer, their "handwriting" will be very large, and the registration fee is only a small part, and most of the money is paid by the sponsor himself, which is relatively much higher. However, in recreational fishing tournaments, the prize money is determined according to the entry fee and the number of people. Most of them are competitions held by themselves, or like club competitions, provincial point competitions, this type of competition has no sponsors, and the so-called prize money is combined with the entry fee paid by each person. After the rent is deducted from each casual match, the rest of the money is used to reward the top eight.

The so-called professional angler is actually just a master of fishing, not really a prize money. If they can get good grades, they will also have a lot of income. However, if you can't get any ranking, the expensive registration fee will be wasted. In fact, professional angler is just a title for a master angler. Theoretically, many anglers simply come to participate in the tournament and mainly love fishing. But professional anglers always represent the manufacturer in the competition, and their fishing skills are excellent. This makes it impossible for many fishing enthusiasts to compare with their strength, and it is almost impossible to win the tournament.

After all, there are a few people who make a living from fishing, but some good anglers will play on behalf of the manufacturer, and each big manufacturer will choose a group of masters. Although some people are considered professional anglers by outsiders, in addition to the fact that there are manufacturers who come to them to compete, they all have their own main business, which can only be said to make some extra money.

However, although countless fishing tournaments are held every year across the country, there is rarely a single angler who is super capable and wins the championship every time. Each tournament will have a different fishing master, usually several groups of people. Because fishing not only pays attention to technology, understanding of fish conditions, but also fishing positions, people who can play games all year round definitely have a certain level.

In this regard, the third brother is definitely not good, so he himself has already sentenced himself to the "death penalty".

Of course, even so, the third brother's level must be good.

At least when Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban were out of the game, the two of them were abused by the third brother.

"You guys are so new that you don't even know the basics of fishing.

In fact, if you want to fish, you must master the fishing method.

Generally speaking, there are three types of fishing.

Traditional fishing methods mainly refer to the fishing methods that have been handed down from history, these fishing methods are very diverse, with more obvious regional and national characteristics, hand rod fishing is just one of them, there are also hand line fishing, row fishing, wheel fishing and other fishing methods, fishing places also include river fishing, reservoir fishing, sea fishing and stream fishing and so on. And many folk fishing masters are endless, rich and wonderful fishing techniques let us always be able to open our eyes, among which there are a lot of fine and dexterous pendant, pendant and floating pendant fishing methods, its sensitivity is very high, and many fishing methods are very advantageous in anti-wind and wave and anti-hanging bottom.

Our one-sided understanding of the traditional fishing method for thick line hook fishing, in fact, is mainly because many of our fishing friends in many areas are rarely exposed to many excellent traditional fishing methods, and now because of the continuous bad fishing environment, many strange traditional fishing methods are facing the danger of being lost.

As for the competitive fishing competition, if it was placed in the past, the object of competitive fishing was mainly crucian carp, and most of the competitions that appeared in public or often reported by TV stations were all kinds of crucian carp fishing elite competitions, and most of the competitions were basically competitions related to crucian carp, and such competitions were the most basic tests. This is why most anglers think that competitive fishing is the same as a crucian carp fishing competition.

But in fact, in recent years, the fishing competition is very diverse, a variety of freshwater competitions, such as polyculture competitions, sea fishing competitions, rock fishing competitions and reservoir fishing competitions held in various places, etc., in the fishing world is also more and more influential, many competitions are to promote the return of fishing to nature, promote environmental protection for the purpose, these competitions have changed the state and culture of fishing competition, so that competitive fishing is no longer synonymous with crucian carp fishing competition.

Finally, talk about the suspension fishing method, many anglers, especially many fishing masters have equated the suspension fishing with Taiwan fishing, which is very wrong, because the suspension fishing method can be traced back to at least 1000 years ago, in our country's traditional fishing has long been a record of the suspension fishing method, and Taiwan fishing is just the first to start fishing crucian carp fishing techniques in Baodao and Fuso, they are more systematic to use the suspension fishing method, and after being introduced into the country after many years of development and evolution, so that Taiwan fishing is now more and more extensive, many anglers from the beginning of fishing contact is Taiwan fishing fishing method, but Taiwan fishing and suspension fishing can not be equated。

In short, if you want to learn, I recommend that you start with the traditional fishing method, which is easy to learn and not complicated, which is very suitable for beginners like you to learn. ”
