Chapter Twenty-Seven: Waterways for Fishing
After two days of fun with Qiaoqiao in Changsha, Yang Zi returned to Graygang Town, and he went to his hometown to get the license plate of the car and then rested at home for a few days.
Recently, Yang Zi, who has been running outside like this every day, suddenly returned home and calmed down, and he was really a little uncomfortable.
He had nothing to do with Qian Gang and a few people, and the idle group planned to go out fishing again.
The places that the family frequents have recently become very bad due to the drought, and after thinking about it, Yang Zi plans to beckon everyone to go fishing near the inlet of the source of the Huangcai Reservoir for a day.
The place was originally a large river, but with the perennial rains, it slowly turned into a two-hundred-meter-wide waterway.
There is a river at one end and a reservoir at the other, and it gradually becomes a three-way zone in the middle.
This area of water has abundant food and resources brought down by the river, and has a relatively wide active water layer, so it attracts many fish to inhabit here.
The most distinctive thing is that I don't know why this place, there are a lot of soft-shelled turtles living near the two sides of the river, and the people who fish here are basically able to catch them every once in a while.
This wild soft-shelled turtle is a good tonic, so the price is usually very high. People in the vicinity like to sit here for a long time with a pole when they have nothing to do, so that there are many fishermen fishing here on both sides of this water every day.
As soon as Yang Zi and the others discussed it together, everyone who was addicted to fish immediately set a departure time for the next day. After making some preparations at home, several people rested early for the night to refresh themselves for the next day's activities.
Early the next morning, everyone met at the intersection in the center of the town on time and drove to the destination seventy or eighty kilometers away.
As the sky gradually became brighter, everyone finally arrived at the waterway that Yang Zi had chosen after driving for more than an hour.
This waterway was very close to the road, and Yang Zi and the others directly drove the car to less than fifty meters from the shore.
After slowly walking to the river bank with large bags of equipment on their backs, everyone began to look at the surrounding environment in order to choose a better fishing spot.
This kind of river fishing is particularly challenging to choose a fishing location, and the catch varies greatly depending on the fishing position.
Since they are not very familiar with the terrain here, they can't make up any idea for a while when they look at the green water by the river.
After Yang Zi left his things in place, he walked to the end of the reservoir, intending to find out if there was a suitable place nearby.
The riverbank along the river is sparsely planted with willow trees, most of which have grown into the water on one side as the terrain gradually lowers due to the erosion of the river.
On this side of the embankment, there is a section that borders the rice paddies, and there is a section that is a bit steep.
Yang Zi walked along the shore to the shore of the mountain, and still didn't find anything, so he could only return the same way, asking everyone to find a random place to start fishing first to see the fish, if it really didn't work, then move the fishing position.
Everyone has no objection when they hear it, after all, this waterside looks basically the same, and no one can see what is going on underwater, since there is no one to guide us, let's experiment it ourselves.
A few people carried their equipment and scattered them, but they were not stupid, and the places they picked were all places where people often fished, so it was better to try their luck than to try their luck in any case.
Yang Zi opened the bait on the side and gave Qian Gang and them one by one, and then found a place to start packing up the equipment.
The nest material they use today is still chaff cakes, and this kind of fluid water is basically useless, only suitable for this kind of slower volatile, compact and heavy things.
Yang Zi threw a large bag of nest material down and then directly began to lower the rod, because the recent fishing competition fishing is a bit brainy, he actually habitually smoked the nest after the first rod was thrown down.
Reacting, he shook his head, despised his idiotic behavior, threw the rod again, sat aside, and waited quietly for the fish to float in the water.
Time passed gradually, and soon more than half an hour passed. When I came, I thought that there were fish everywhere, but the fish conditions of the people were not very good.
Yang Zi changed the bait more than ten times and still didn't catch the fish, but with great patience, he still stared at the fish drift and waited slowly.
With a gust of morning wind slowly blowing, the fish drift in the water suddenly paused a few times, and Yang Zi, who had already fished and had no bottom in his heart, saw that he had finally waited for a fish mouth, and his heart was also relieved.
He stared at the drifting movements, seized the opportunity, and pulled the rod violently, and an ear of wheat less than a finger long was pulled ashore.
After waiting for a long time to catch a piece of this thing, Yang Zi, who was unhappy, put the rod back down and put it on the fort, and he got up to check the fish situation of other people.
is similar to him, this will be Lao Wang, except for Li Zhen, who just got on a small crucian carp, the rest are still there in the Air Force.
I chose such a place, and it would be embarrassing if everyone went back to the Air Force.
Yang Zi thought about it for a while, and after thinking about it, he walked around the shore and thought of a way, and he stopped when he walked to the edge of a willow tree next to him.
The branches of the willows, which were only half submerged and exposed, were so little luxuriant that they not only cast a large shadow on the side of the trees, but the long branches also hung down and were soaked in the water.
When Yang Zi came over just now, he seemed to have checked something inside these branches, but because they disappeared quickly, he didn't know whether it was a fish or a frog or something.
Seeing that there were no fish on his side now, Yang Zi moved the fishing chair and fishing rod to the side of the willow tree after pondering for a while, planning to try the fishing situation here.
He didn't make a nest either, and after testing the depth of the water, he hung the bait with a fishing hook and threw it into the shade not far from the edge of the tree.
The fish in the water floated slowly erect under the action of the plumb sinker, and then stopped gently after revealing its three eyes.
Yang Zi looked at the fish drift while also scanning the movement in the branches of the trees on the side from time to time, since there are signs of fish activity here, he should not worry about catching fish with such a high fishing rate.
He waited patiently for more than ten minutes, until the fourth bait change finally came to the water.
The fish floated down a little and began to swim slowly towards the branches.
Yang Zi, who had been staring at it, naturally wouldn't let it get his wish, he lifted the fishing rod and stabbed the fish, and then tried hard to pull the other party out of the water.
The fish may not be very small, and Yang Zi pulled it to the surface after a stalemate of more than two minutes.
I saw a golden silk carp of more than two catties swimming in the place where it landed, and it struggled from time to time to pop up a few beautiful splashes.
Yang Zi was also relieved after fishing it up with a copy net, this trip was finally not considered the Air Force.
After finding the place where the fish like to hide, he sat down and yelled at Qian Gang and the others, telling them that if the fish were not in good condition, they should find a willow tree and move their position.
The others were depressed, and they hadn't seen any fish for almost an hour.
After hearing Yang Zi say this, they all got up, and then they each found a nearby willow tree and sat next to it.
Not to mention, it doesn't matter if there are fish or not on the edge of this tree, the temperature is much cooler. Several people have long been a little unbearable from the sun, and it is right for them to be here.
Yang Zi saw that everyone had changed positions, and then admonished them, reminding them not to hang on to the branches when they were fishing, and then continued to watch their drifting.
As time passed, several people who had changed places began to catch a lot of fish. Qian Gang also accidentally caught a bonito of more than two catties, and happily planned to use it to make a hot pot at night.
Yang Zi also caught a lot of other miscellaneous fish after catching the carp, and he was in a happy mood while enjoying the cool breeze blowing by the river, while also immersed in the fun of fishing.
Seeing that the fish drift in the water was suddenly pulled straight down by something, Yang Zi, who was happily fishing, hurriedly raised his hand and pulled it.
The feeling from the other end of the pole was very heavy, and strangely enough, the strength of the struggle was not very great.
At first, he thought it was hanging something, and he strained the pole a few times.
The fish in the water seemed to have just reacted at this time, and after the fierce force, they began to rush straight towards the river, and the fierce force suddenly burst out like this, almost making Yang Zi's fishing rod break free.
He was very happy to see that he had been caught by such a big fish, and quickly stood up and walked to the open space on the side and began to whirl around with the fish.
He used a four-meter-five rod today, and the line set was useless, so he would encounter such a big fish and be tossed by the other party for a while.
Fortunately, the river embankment is very open, and after Yang Zi pulled the fish to turn the direction for the first time, he finally managed to get a few steps to buffer the distance.
He controlled the opponent's course of action one by one, and slowly stabilized the situation.
The movement just now had already reached Qian Gang and their side, and several people came over to help him with the help of Yang Zi after catching a big fish here, and started to prepare with the net.
The endurance of the fish in the water was somewhat beyond Yang Zi's expectations, although it didn't give him a heavy feeling, but the two sides were in a stalemate for almost twenty minutes without deciding the winner.
However, the strength of the fish was far less than that at the beginning, and after nearly half an hour of confrontation, he was finally pulled out of the water by Yang Zi.
Everyone exclaimed in unison after seeing its true face of Lushan, because this was actually a big king eight weighing seven or eight pounds.
It's not the first time Yang Zi has caught this thing, but it's really rare to see such a big one.
He happily pulled the other party to the shore, and Qian Gang didn't even use the net, so he jumped directly to the side and grabbed its lips and got it ashore.
Originally, I was just going to catch some small fish for fun, but I didn't expect to win such a big lottery.
After happily taking a few photos, everyone unanimously decided to have a dinner together in the evening, Qian Gang's bonito is still a fillet, and the main dish is this big king.
Maybe life is like this, and every time you inadvertently bring you a small surprise.
The people who had been fishing and had a lot of fun were even more happy after receiving such a gift, and they discussed the dishes for the evening one by one.
Since it was also close to noon at this time, they didn't feel too hot with umbrellas under the shade of the trees, but their stomachs began to say that they were a little hungry, and they suddenly felt empty after discussing the evening's dinner
The little dry food that Yang Zi brought today had already been eaten in the morning, and they were hungry and had to send Qian Gang to drive to a nearby town to pack a few meals and come back.
After a delicious lunch with beer, everyone continued to fish, and it was not until four o'clock in the afternoon that they slowly packed up their things and went home.
The time on the road was skipped, and after arriving home, everyone first went home and put their things away, and then rushed to Qian Gang's house to prepare dinner.
With the two chefs Yang Zi and Qian Gang here, this dinner party was naturally very satisfying.
Everyone bragged and talked about the interesting past of the last sea fishing, and they didn't go home to rest until midnight.
