"Don't wave the camera around, we have an external lens on! Right now, we can only see the bobber; the viewers can't see people!" Zhang Yang explained.

"Oh, oh! Then just keep watching the bobber! I feel like there should be plenty of fish in the spot! Let's give it another cast!"

Meng Fan nodded, casually tossing the first crucian carp into the fish keeper, then baited two balls of red worm on the double hooks. He pinched a small clump of scattering bait on the top hook, and with a flick of his arm, he cast the 7.2-meter line setup into the fishing spot again.

The bobber quickly turned upright in the water, and Zhang Yang slightly adjusted its position, once again locking in the bobber's movement count and continued to watch.

In less than thirty seconds, the second fish took the bait again!

Just like the first one, a very standard wild crucian carp bite, slightly lifting up, then forcefully dipping down a little.

This time, Meng Fan still didn't lift the rod immediately, waiting until the bobber lifted again to a dead stop before hooking the fish!

The same happened with both fish, which made it clear there was an issue.

Zhang Yang was sure that Meng Fan wasn't daydreaming, but such a clear bite shouldn't be missed.

The public feed was already full of comments teasing little Meng Fan, although they weren't directly insulting, many comments carried some personal emotions.

"Little Meng, are you a bit nearsighted?" Zhang Yang asked.

"No? Both my eyes have 5.2 vision! I don't have astigmatism either, why are you asking me this?" Meng Fan was completely puzzled by the question.

"The last two fish both lifted the bobber to a dead stop before you lifted the rod! Are you intentionally waiting to get a firmer bite? Crucian carp aren't carp, there's no need to do that!"

Zhang Yang got straight to the point, voicing his and the viewers' confusion.

"Uh, Brother Yang! We are on the northern bank, fishing facing south against the light, the water surface has glare, and with this large bobber, I can't see the subtle movements!"

Hearing Zhang Yang's question, Meng Fan immediately explained.

At that, Zhang Yang and the viewers' confusion was completely dispelled!

"Uh, brothers in the stream, mystery solved!

We're using high-powered lenses to watch the bobber, it's almost as if it's right in front of us, with bait details very clear, but the angler can't see the live stream!

Who just bad-mouthed and doubted the eyesight? Apologize to little Meng Fan!

Such a grievance can't be solved without a lollipop!"

The first half of the talk, Zhang Yang spoke quite seriously, creating a bit of a tense atmosphere.

But seriousness didn't last three seconds before he joked about a virtual gift of one-cent lollipop, instantly bringing back the cheerful mood in the stream.

[Arrogant Zhang sent lollipops ×99 and said: Sorry, I spoke harshly just now, this is the medical fee!]

[Zhe Er Gen sent lollipops ×66 and said: Sorry+1, I spoke freely with disregard, this is the medical fee!]

[Cat in the Kitchen sent lollipops ×99 and said: Sorry+2]

...

Wow, Zhang Yang's magical method of turning the situation around with humor immediately filled the chat with lollipop gifts.

They came in batches. Although a lollipop costs just a penny, a batch of 99 totals 9.9.

The viewers might be straightforward, but they are reasonable, and many who were a bit too harsh with their words just gifted 'medical fees'.

Zhang Yang switched back to the front camera on his phone with a grin: "Stop! Hold it! Just solving the mystery is good enough!

This minor issue served as a reminder for our streaming brothers!

Sometimes when problems occur, it's not necessarily anyone's fault! Before you start abusing, let the bullet fly for a while!

Even though we don't have many followers now, I'm streaming with the intent to grow this account. So let's establish a rule today in this stream!

No matter what happens in the stream, regardless of who's right and who's wrong, let's handle it with reason, maintain civility and manners, no insults allowed!

If any hot-headed brother speaks out of line, the first warning results in a 48-hour mute, and on the second offense, a permanent ban from the stream!

As the streamer, I will also lead by example, and everyone is welcome to supervise!"

[Support Brother Yang!]

[Rules are necessary to maintain order, support!]

[A bit ashamed of my impulsiveness earlier, support the rule!]

Even in the stream, Zhang Yang did not play the nice guy but showed a very mature streamer demeanor, firmly controlling the pace of the stream.

In the first live broadcast of the Wild Fishing account, the rule was established!

"Uh, boss, what should I do then? How about switching to the East Bank? Viewing the bobbers will surely be better there!" Meng Fan scratched his head, feeling a bit troubled.

Zhang Yang waved his hand: "No need, do you have sunglasses in your car? Wearing a pair of glasses should solve the problem!"

Upon hearing 'sunglasses', Meng Fan's eyes lit up. Right, the glare on the water surface caused by the sun is similar to the glare on the road while driving, and a pair of sunglasses can solve the problem.

"Yes, they're in the car. I'll go get them!" Meng Fan responded, got up quickly, and walked briskly to the parking spot.

Soon, Meng Fan returned with a pair of tinted sunglasses, sat back on the fishing platform, and resumed his fishing.

With the sunglasses on, sure enough, the clarity of viewing the bobbers improved significantly. When the crucian carp took the bait, Meng Fan could almost lift the rod promptly at the moment of the downward bite action.

With the continuous high-frequency casting, the interval for fish bites in the spot shortened more and more, quickly transitioning from slow bites to fast bites.

If this situation continued without adjustment, it wouldn't take long before they start connecting consecutive catches.

"This feels great, Brother Yang, want to come up and fish for a while? Your frequency is faster than mine, after casting for a little while longer, you'll soon be catching consecutively!"

Meng Fan's eyes sparkled, having completely found the rhythm of fishing.

Zhang Yang shook his head, saying: "You stay on and fish steadily! But the rhythm can't be faster, change the dropping point, slow the frequency, fish towards the edge of the spot, and stop the scattering bait!"

"What? Change to the edge? Stop scattering bait?" Hearing Zhang Yang's reminder, Meng Fan was completely confused.

Wasn't it you who just told me to speed up the rhythm, and now you want me to 'go slow'? What's going on?"

Zhang Yang nodded: "Just do it! The current fish bite speed is already the limit for live broadcasting; if we start connecting consecutive catches, the time is too short and I can't focus!

Our streaming viewers would not have a good experience either! Fishing by oneself isn't the same as streaming for an audience to watch!"

"Ah, got it!" Meng Fan quickly comprehended Zhang Yang's point.

Fishing by oneself and streaming it live are not entirely the same.

When fishing alone, you want as many bites as fast as possible, with enjoyment being the priority.

However, in a streaming situation, it's a different logic altogether; the angler's enjoyment isn't the main focus, it's about how the stream presents to viewers!

Luckily, Zhang Yang reminded timely, as continuing with high-frequency casting, they would soon start a crazy streak of catches, rendering the high-definition bobber viewing aspect of the stream completely useless.

[Wow, what Brother Yang just said makes so much sense!]

[Upon deeper thought, it indeed makes a lot of sense. Every cast requires refocusing to lock in the bobber, if the fish speed picks up, we'll just keep seeing camera shifts!]

[Haven't finished watching a stream but I'm really impressed with Brother Yang! Quick-thinking and meticulous, no wonder you're a fishing master, thumbs up for the streamer!]

[A moment ago I was thinking of waiting for a catching spree to enjoy, now I see that a catching spree using high-definition bobber view isn't possible to stream!

You can't have both fish and bear paw, better to watch the bobber! These subtle movements are indeed so clear!"]

[Movements are clear+1, I mostly fished for the downward bite in the past, occasionally for the lift-up!

Now with high-definition viewing, I realize crucian carp bobber details are so many. I never knew about the slight lift-up before the downward bite before today's stream!"]

Seeing the viewers getting back to discussing bobber watching, Zhang Yang went along with the topic and continued: "This point above was spot on! The details in fishing crucian carp are indeed numerous!

The slight lift-up is caused by the fish sticking its tail up and dipping its head down searching for bait, as it finds the bait it swallows, causing a downward dip on the bobber, when lifting, the hook is already in its mouth!

The float pattern of wild crucian carp is mostly similar, I'll broadcast a session in the Competition Pond when there's a chance, there'll be even more insights there!"
