CHAPTER 515: CHAPTER 300: A PICKUP TRUCK SEEMS UNABLE TO STOP

Four hours of competition passed with the fish situation fluctuating like a roller coaster.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the match, Zhang Yang finally put down his fishing rod and stretched lazily on his fishing box.

What a thrill!!

For a master who has perfected his fishing skills beyond the ordinary angler level, nothing is more exhilarating than mastering the fish situation and outshining rivals in a competition.

At other fishing venues with insufficient density, even Zhang Yang sometimes felt powerless. There were too few fish, or the draw for the fishing spot was too remote, and adapting techniques and methods was out of the question. From the moment he sat down, the final catch of the fish was basically determined.

But Jinghai Garden is different. Even on the south bank, with deeper water levels compared to other banks, and even when the fresh fish were snapped up in the first hour, Zhang Yang still performed excellently with his fishing skills, methods, bait, and supplements.

In the four-hour competition, he caught fish continuously in the first hour, spent the middle hour using a long rod in deep water with hardly any catch, and in the last two hours shifted from rapid to slower catches and finally continuous strikes. Nearly three-quarters of the competition time was spent in a state of interaction and non-stop fishing. Zhang Yang was very satisfied with his performance today.

"Hey, buddy! Which brand of bait are you using? Being able to continuously catch old fish on the south bank in the later phase is quite impressive!"

At this time, an angler on Zhang Yang’s right side greeted him with a grin.

Zhang Yang smiled humbly and said leisurely, "Our company’s fish bait and additives called ’Fame Across the World’. Mainly producing fish bait and additive supplements, we’ve now basically expanded to all categories of fishing gear! If you haven’t tried it, you might want to check it out!"

"’Fame Across the World’, I’ve seen your clips and live streams, you... who are you again!" The neighboring angler scratched his head thoughtfully upon hearing Zhang Yang’s self-introduction.

Zhang Yang: "My name is Zhang Yang!"

"Oh my gosh! Right, Zhang Yang! You’re Zhang Yang! Idol!

I’ve been following you since you posted videos on your public account. Later, I watched your live streams on Inke for a while! Why did you stop streaming? Did Inke ban your account or something? Where are you streaming now?"

From the other person’s words, Zhang Yang felt the overwhelming enthusiasm of a devoted fan who lost track of him due to some unexpected situation and wasn’t aware that Zhang Yang had switched to live streaming on Kuaishou.

"I switched to Kuaishou! Maybe you missed those few days I transitioned to the new platform, so you lost track!"

"Kuaishou? I’ll download and install it right away! Finally caught up with you, you’re really good at fishing! Can I have a photo with you? I’ve admired you for a long time!"

"No problem!" Out of courtesy, Zhang Yang took off his face mask and sunglasses and took a photo with the fan beside him.

Zhang Yang wasn’t stingy; he directly opened his fishing box and took out a sample trial box of the new additive product released in spring.

"Meeting is fate! Please test this trial pack! If you have any opinions or suggestions, feel free to give feedback when we’re live streaming!"

"Uh, how much is it? I’ll pay you!"

Zhang Yang shook his head, "No need, it’s a trial pack, free giveaway!

The basic flavors today used Number One, Two, and Three and slightly tweaked the formula based on the original three stalwarts, you can try it!"

"This stuff is effective for catching old fish in the later stage as well? Did you use it to integrate the fish situation at four and a half meters today?"

Holding the trial pack Zhang Yang gave him, the fan was extremely excited and eagerly asked about the morning’s competition fish situation.

Zhang Yang said, "The density of old fish here is pretty good, with reasonable fishing methods, you can actually gather them up!

Besides the additives in the box, I also added some Chinese herbal wine that hasn’t hit the market yet, which is quite effective for the old fish here! It will be released soon in the latter half of the year, if you want a sneak glimpse, keep an eye out!

Use the slow-frequency scatter method to guard the spot, and once the old fish gather, increase the frequency slightly, then catch them when the fish school gathers. That’s roughly the rhythm!

There was also more than an hour in between without bites, sticking to a fixed casting frequency, stabilize the setup, one cast at a time, then the bites came!"

"Understood! Really lucky today, learned a lot! Thank you..."

"Haha, no need to be so polite, once you find the streaming platform, feel free to visit our streaming room! I or Wang Yan from our team stream regularly!"

"Okay, will definitely go!"

...

Time flew by, and Zhang Yang felt as if he had only chatted casually with his fan fellow anglers for a moment when the staff responsible for tallying the competition catch came over to Zhang Yang’s side.

Accompanied by the area referee, the head of the fish collection team from yesterday’s pontoon, who had helped Zhang Yang collect fish, came over with two young workers.

Recognizing Zhang Yang’s face, the fish collection team leader amicably handed him a cigarette.

"The water’s deep on this south bank, and the general fish situation is a bit poorer! How did you do today with the fishing?"

Zhang Yang took the cigarette from the other party, dug out his lighter to light it for them, then lit his own and took a drag before replying, "Not bad, with abundant fish at the garden, caught some more in the latter part!

By the way, bro, so far how much has the most caught in our group?"

"One hundred sixty-three point four pounds! Under normal circumstances, reaching three hundred pounds on this south bank through fishing alone is very challenging. I estimate that someone in your group today with two hundred plus pounds might drive the pickup away."
