For such an organization that is not official but more official, Hong Tao has always stayed away, he neither wants to rely on fishing to mix the name of a national-level athlete, nor does he intend to have anything to do with it. Who wants to hide and hide, but he hasn't dodged yet, but he still fell into the hands of his old man, Nima, you are a Buddha!

"I see...... I'll help you find a way, I know the president of the European Fishing Association, and I'll ask him to come forward and communicate with your country's fishing association, maybe there can be a way. Let's leave that game at that, it's not going to happen until next month, we still have time. After listening to Hong Tao's explanation, he didn't hesitate at all, and directly mobilized his network, intending to help Hong Tao dredge the relationship, but just a few hours ago, he was still questioning Hong Tao's fishing skills, and he didn't know what he thought.

For the first game, Hong Tao didn't have any special thoughts, he felt that if he didn't win the first place, he would be too disappointed by God's love. In his duffel bag, there was a bottle of cleaning solution for cleaning contact lenses, but the bottle was a bottle of cleaning liquid, and it was filled with high-concentration fish scale water, which was a safe way for Hong Tao to bring special effect bait into Germany after thinking for a long time.

However, it should be noted that the fishing concept in Europe is very different from that in China, which can be reflected in the fishing rules.

First of all, the biggest difference is that when it comes to the use of hooks, fishing competitions in China's lakes and reservoirs generally stipulate that there are no more than 6-8 hooks per rod. But in the rules of the European fishing tournament. Only one hook is allowed on each rod, regardless of whether you are a hand rod or a cast. As a result, many Chinese anglers are good at explosive baits, grape hooks, fly hooks, and string hook fishing rigs.

Hong Tao didn't care much about this regulation, in his previous life, he also used a hook to fish in some reservoirs, because there were too many obstacles at the bottom of the reservoir, and it was easy to hang up if there were too many hooks. Therefore, it is reduced to one hook, so that as long as the fish eats the hook, there is no other hook to hinder the fish on the reeling line, which is also a way to be forced out by the environment.

Secondly, there is a more rigid requirement, that is, no chemical additives are allowed to be used in European fishing. The bait must be made with 100% natural ingredients. This is also very fatal for Chinese anglers. Because of domestic fishing, most people use commercial bait, that is, bait produced by bait companies.

These commercial baits contain more or less chemical ingredients, such as various flavors and various colors. Despite the guise of edible, natural. But whoever believes is a fool. Even chemical additives can be added to food for people. You say it's all natural in what you give to fish?

Of course, no bait company will say that its bait contains chemical additives, but this is the same as not a bustard in a green building will say that the girls in his building are all broken shoes. In fact, everyone knows what is going on, but no one has come out to pierce this layer of window paper.

But this kind of thing will not work at all in Europe, you dare to add flavors, pigments and even fish attractants, ghrelin or something to the bait, and after the personal production is discovered, it is a fine and various punishments, and the company will be directly sued in court if it does so, bankruptcy is certain, and whether you can keep your free body depends on your fate.

This is not a big problem for Hong Tao, he has always been environmentally friendly when he plays with the rod, and in his previous life he rarely used commercial bait, mainly using corn beans. It's not that he has been conscious of environmental protection since his previous life, but that he thinks the price of commodity bait is too expensive and too blind. Now he is more environmentally friendly, the bait is pellet feed, as for whether there are hormones, antibiotics or anything in these feeds, he does not dare to guarantee, so he does not dare to carry a special effect bait with a good ratio, but brought a bottle of fish scale water to Germany to the scene to mix.

As for the use of that kind of raw materials, Hong Tao has already thought about it, the old corn beans in Germany look very good, yellow, big and full, this is it! The recipe is also very simple, ask Marx's cook for two old corn cobs or a handful of old corn beans, and get a glass bottle. Then throw the corn beans directly into the proportionally diluted fish scale water and soak it. When it's time to compete, take out the corn beans and use them as bait, and the remaining fish scales can be just enough to mix with some nest material and throw them into the fishing spot to make a nest.

Speaking of nesting, the rules on the European side are also quite strict, at least not as in China, where there is no limit on the number of random throws. According to the rules of the competition, each team must not put more than 30 litres of litter in 72 hours, and like bait, the litter must also be made of pure natural ingredients, and one-third of the proportion of live bait can be used, such as earthworms, silkworms and other live animals.

In addition to the above three rules, there are many other aspects of the requirements that are not the same as those in China. For example, when the fish is caught, only the two players who are participating in the competition can touch the fishing tackle, and the two anglers who are resting are not allowed to help; Another example is the competition regulations on the weighing of the fish must be intact, no external injury, if the surface of the fish body is bruised or something because of the fish protection, the fish is fished in vain, even if it weighs 100 pounds, it can not be counted in the results.

It can be seen from these rules that the first thing Europeans pay attention to in fishing is environmental protection and animal protection, just like the rule that injured fish can not be counted as the results of the competition, it is very good to force the contestants to carefully protect the fish they caught, do not suffer in the fish protection, and try to live as comfortably as possible, so some fish guards, fish protection mats, and fish gloves made of high-tech materials came into being.

After everyone finished chatting about these rules, Pan had already yawned and went upstairs to sleep, and the remaining 4 old men were even more careless now, continuing to light cigars, pour wine, and then fight at night!

Speaking of European carp fishing competitions, in fact, we have to thank the Chinese.

As early as 1200 BC during the Yin Shang period, the Chinese began to dig pools to artificially raise carp, and in the Book of Poetry, there is a saying that "if you eat fish, you will be the carp of the river".

And why there is no carp in China's four major fish 'green, grass, silver carp, bighead carp', is not that Chinese do not like to eat carp, but this saying originated in the Tang Dynasty, in the Tang Dynasty, because the carp character and the emperor's surname are the same sound, carp has become a royal thing in those hundreds of years, ordinary people are not allowed to raise, fish and eat.

There was no carp in Europe, but it was brought back to Persia from China by the Persians during the Yuan Dynasty and later brought back to Europe from Persia by the Crusaders. According to the written record, the first carp was raised in Europe by the Austrians, and then to Germany, then to France, and slowly spread throughout Europe.

England was the last country to have carp kept in captivity, and it was probably not until the mid-14th century that some missionaries brought carp back to the British Isles from mainland Europe.

Although carp has been living in Europe for more than 800 years, Europeans have been fishing for carp for a very short time, with a total history of more than 50 years. So what did the Europeans do in the remaining centuries? The answer is very interesting, they are all figuring out how to fish for carp!

During this long period of time, due to the special living habits of carp and its timid and intelligent characteristics compared to other fish, Europeans have not found an effective way to catch carp, and some people have even suggested that carp is a fish that cannot be caught with nets.

It was not until after the end of World War II that the spell was spelled by an Englishman, Richard Walker. Walker) cracked. He used the large bait group sinking method to catch a giant carp weighing more than 40 pounds for the first time, making him a pioneer of the European sinking bottom fishing method.

It was only then that Europeans realized that fishing was not only possible in the middle and upper layers of the water, but also not only with lures or meat bait, and that the best way to deal with a demersal fish like carp was to fish in the bottom of the water. After Walker, Europeans gradually developed a set of effective sinking bottom fishing, and carp fishing competitions began throughout Europe. (To be continued......)
