Chapter 21: A Time to Witness a Miracle
Hahaha, Lao Tzu is really a genius angler!
Looking at the big fish that had not yet been unhooked, Li Mu slowly stood up and pulled back the fishing line slightly, and the big fish did not seem to be in a hurry to escape or exhaust himself. At this time, it is natural that you can't reel in the line, and you must have patience to fight wits and courage when fishing big fish.
At this time, the big fish pulled very smoothly, and its strength was as great as that of a ploughing ox, otherwise it would not be able to pull the boat. Li Mu didn't want to alarm it, so he lightly lifted the rod and used his arm strength to make the rod bow sideways, mainly to prevent it from unhooking.
Although you can't compete with the fish yet, you can also try to slowly guide the big fish to change its course, constantly consuming its strength. Just like when we play LOL, if you can't fight the opponent, you will hide under the tower and slowly consume the opponent, and when the opponent is left with blood, you will suddenly jump out and kill with one hit!
The same goes for fishing, you have to be patient to use the fish's strength. The herring fish is relatively mild, if it is a grass carp or a black fish such as a grumpy fish, it will be dead after the hook, at this time we need to take the strategy is to give the other party a relatively strong swing rod once, the advantage of this is to warn the big fish to be painful, can not come nonsense. The other is to deepen the damage of the hook to the fish, which is not easy to get off the hook.
Although the boat has the buoyancy of water, it is not light. The big fish didn't know how long it had been pulling before, but it had been more than ten minutes since Li Mu woke up. The speed of the ship began to slow down, and it was almost a few hundred meters away from its original position.
Li Mu knew that the strength of the big fish was almost over. At this time, he began to slowly return to the line, and the big fish struggled a few times at first, and then obediently followed.
As the fishing line was retracted by the fishing boat, the big fish got closer and closer to the boat, slowly revealing the back of the fish, and Li Mu looked at the black back with flowers on his face.
Sure enough, it's a big herring, looking at this head, it's estimated to be about twenty pounds, and the body length of about half a meter is really a big guy!
But after the fish approached the boat, Li Mu became more careful, and his speed became slower and slower, sometimes reeling the line and sometimes releasing the line to let the big fish swim around the boat. After another half an hour passed like this, Li Mu felt that the time was almost the same, and then Li Mu once again steadily dragged the fishing rod and began to reel in the line, and at the same time picked up the net pocket with his feet and put it in the most convenient place.
The big fish wandered around the boat for a few more minutes, Li Mu quickly locked the fishing boat, and then reached out and picked up the net pocket and leaned over to copy the fish head into the pocket and go back!
The big fish went into his pocket, and it was only then that he relaxed. Holding the net pocket with both hands, the big fish slowly revealed its full appearance in the sound of water.
The herring has a pointed head, a body very similar to a grass carp, a blue-black scale armor, and a tail of about half a meter. Li Mu tried it with one hand, and estimated that there were twenty kilograms, a good big herring.
The largest herring is known to be 1.92 meters tall and weighs a terrible 104 kilograms.
Hehe, this time Uncle Ma can still laugh or not!
Looking at the big herring that was still struggling in the air, Li Mu couldn't help but get proud, took out the hook and put the fish into the wire pocket of the stern fish raising, and observed the situation.
At this time, he was dragged by the big herring and deviated from the previously selected place for several hundred meters, and it was not realistic to row in the past, the left side was too far from the shore, and the right side was a fork ditch.
Fork groove? Isn't the little brother over there?
Thinking of his younger brother, Li Mu smiled, then picked up the oar, and was just about to row, suddenly thinking of the situation he had just turned around, his head was a little dizzy, and he looked at the distance, which was about five hundred meters, and it would not have taken long if he swam over.
"Hey, brother, why did you run to the Qinghe Reservoir?" Just when Li Mu was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard the voice of the little brother, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that it was the little brother and a group of half-sized children rowing a small boat and coming slowly.
"Hey, you've got it?" Looking at the way they were smiling and grinning all the way, Li Mu knew that these guys should have gained a lot, three of them were acquaintances, and one looked a bit like Uncle Ma.
"That's right, don't look at who's out of the way!" Li Yuan smiled proudly and then lifted the net pocket of the fish farming at the stern, which was basically full of small crucian carp, about half a catty, fat and fresh.
"Yo, it's all crucian carp seeds! I have a good pot tonight, by the way, Xiao Yuan came to help me. Li Mu smiled and said hello to a few children he knew, he knew that his younger brother's rowing skills were much better than his own.
"Brother, why are you going?"
"Fishing, don't bet with Uncle Ma to catch ten big herring fish until dark, I fell asleep at the coal mine bend just now and was pulled here by the big herring." Li Mu shrugged helplessly, but his words made the four young people opposite laugh.
"Brother Wood, your joke is not funny at all, but it feels a little cold!"
"yes, Brother Wood, aren't you really sleepwalking?"
"Hahaha"
A group of people laughed while rowing the boat over, and after leaning together, Li Yuan jumped on the boat lightly and looked at Li Mu and said with some embarrassment: "Brother, I may not give you a share if you force me, the main thing is that there is nothing fresh and refined!" ”
"Roll on, come here and take me back to the coal mine! It's almost four o'clock, and I'm nine big fish away! "Li Mucai is too lazy to joke with these little kids, his task today is not simple, and he has to go back early to eat wild boar at night!
"Hahaha, who called you my brother! Oh yes. Where's the big herring that pulled you here? Li Yuan took the oar with a smile, changed places with Li Mu, and suddenly smiled and mended the knife.
The others were laughing on the other boat, and if it weren't for the fact that a few guys would have to laugh and lie down on the water.
"It's in the net pocket behind you, I won't look at it!" Li Mu said indifferently, and then quickly hooked the bait again, and then observed the position.
"Me, me!" Li Yuan didn't believe it, so he casually reached out to carry the net pocket, and suddenly a strong force almost pulled him into the water, and he couldn't help but scream.
"What's wrong?"
"Hey, Xiaoyuanzi, your performance is much better than Brother Mu's!"
"Hahaha, Yuanzi, you're not an actor......"
The friends laughed again and had a stomachache, Li Yuan looked at Li Mu in disbelief, and then looked at the net pocket that fell back into the water again and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Brother, how big is that fish?" After a while, Li Yuan recovered and looked at Li Mu and asked seriously, but he was a little surprised in his heart, the strength just now is definitely a big fish.
"More than twenty pounds!" Li Mu was fiddling with his fishing gear, and he didn't plan to fish in the water this time, so he prepared a little more bait to hang on the hook, so that it wouldn't be too busy for a while.
"Bang, that's awesome!"
"More than twenty pounds? Brother Wood, have you ever seen a fish that big? ”
"That's it, a fish of more than twenty catties must be almost half a meter, had, Hadron?"
"No, although the herring fish is relatively long, how can a twenty-pound fish be half a meter!" Uncle Ma's son Ma Qiang smiled and gestured at the length of half a meter, he didn't believe Li Mu's words at all, if it weren't for the fact that this guy was Li Yuan's brother, he really wanted to tell him that there were not many big fish of more than twenty catties in the Qinghe Reservoir.
"You don't believe me?" When Li Yuan heard that these guys didn't believe it at this time, he felt a little unhappy.
"That's for sure, why don't you bring it up and give us some insight?"
"Okay, why don't you bet on a string of incense?" Li Yuan's eyes turned to his heart, and he looked at his little friend with a smile and asked.
"Medium!"
"That's it, it's going to be a skewer soon, it's a big deal, let's make it for you to eat!"
", I'm talking about the skewers of a fat hot pot restaurant!"
"Okay, it's only a hundred or ten yuan, you mention it and we'll see it!"
A few people laughed for a while, Li Mu shook his head speechlessly, he didn't see that the little brother was quite a chicken thief, these guys were probably all in the first middle school and would have to cry when the time came.
"Hehe, it's time to witness the miracle!" Li Yuan was not verbose, and after seeing that his little friend agreed, he directly stood up and took a deep breath and slowly lifted the net bag, and the sound of the water crackling as the net bag left the water.
