Chapter 925: Chapter 908: Han Luofeng’s Little Scheme

The first match yesterday afternoon, the mixed fish conditions weren’t actually good. Especially during this time period, fish were biting poorly, and with the continuous morning fishing release, before Yue Feng went on stage, he personally judged that the fish bite would definitely not be quick.

Based on this judgment, Yue Feng felt that Han Luofeng’s approach was of no substantial significance. Without any temporary adjustments, he still focused on the float movements and patiently teased with the rod tip.

No bite, tease again!

Still no bite, raise the rod and change the bait!

With nimble fingers, he pinched a small ball of ragworm, then rolled it into a long strip, split it in the middle to hook it nicely, wrapped it in the Doughballs, cast the rod into the water, and off it went!

After three consecutive casts to test the bite, the float showed no action signals. Seeing this, Yue Feng decisively switched to a fine-tuned fishing gear for slow fish, pushed the lead skin seat up to the end, and started a full flying lead search across the water layer for fish layers.

Meanwhile, next to him, Han Luofeng had gone crazy, casting and baiting at a fixed point from the first cast. Each cast’s bait landing point was extremely precise, almost to the point of overlapping landing spots. After the sparse opening ingredient pellets hit the water, they gradually fell off in the middle layer, forming a small scattered band of pellets underwater.

But at this moment, the fishing condition was not as optimistic as imagined. After casting more than ten times, Han Luofeng also saw no bites, just like the neighboring Yue Feng, both empty-handed.

Looking at Yue Feng again, after switching to the Flying Lead Fishing Method, he temporarily abandoned the Doughballs methodology. The Doughballs Bait was too heavy, fell too fast, and was not conducive to searching the swimming layer fish layer.

After adjustment, Yue Feng baited again, twisted two yellow bean-sized bait balls onto the fish hook, shook his wrist to cast, and the fish line in Da Fei Lead state landed precisely in the center of the fishing hole. The float flipped at speed of light, slowly descending in its path.

Using the finest fishing gear with the Flying Lead Fishing Method to search fish layers is Yue Feng’s favorite method when the fishing condition is poor during actual competition.

Its advantage is high sensitivity, able to detect any movement, and the water layer exploration for fish layers is very exaggerated.

For professional anglers, any float movement is not feared, but lack of any signal feedback is.

Yue Feng’s current fishing strategy is to use the minute floating drift patterns on the float, combined with an extremely high understanding of fish conditions to locate the fish layers, and then consider subsequent matters.

It could be considered luck for Yue Feng, the first cast after adjusting the fishing method, the float flipped over in less than three seconds, and a signal of intercept suspension appeared at a very high position for the dual-hook bait.

Observing this, Yue Feng silently analyzed in his heart and quickly made a preliminary judgment.

The bait depth was approximately eighty centimeters, the bite was relatively weak, it suspended for about a second, then slightly paused downward, followed by a dead-top lift.

Intentionally slowed by half a beat, raised the rod to hook the fish.

The force from the rod tip hit the target!

The fish was small, much lighter than the previous half-kilogram carp, gently exerted force to pull the fish out of the water and lift it up, a small carp about 50 grams flew out.

A quick swipe with the landing net, safely unhooked into the fishing creel.

The carp wasn’t caught, but a carp was, temporarily leading 1-0 in tail count.

Seeing this, Han Luofeng decisively retrieved his rod the next second, turned around and took down the spare rod inserted behind him. As if he had been prepared long ago, he pushed up the lead skin seat and began to mimic the full Flying Lead Fishing Method.

This made Yue Feng uncomfortable.

After painstakingly locating the fish layer, it seemed not only he knew the fish condition, but also helped the neighbor to understand it. It meant that Han Luofeng, with the cost of one small carp, completed the intelligence gathering and analysis of the fish condition.

If you count the bait influencing the fishing spot, not only was there no loss, but it was a profitable buy.

After all, one small carp is unlikely to affect the weight contest results, while one slightly larger carp could equalize or even surpass.

Yue Feng was amazed by Han Luofeng’s cleverness, yet his hand movements remained unaffected, shook his wrist, the fish line formed a straight line and cast into the water again.

You may imitate my fishing method, but you may not necessarily know the weight of my bait, and naturally, the analysis of the fish layer won’t be accurate. This thought was Yue Feng’s only temporary advantage.

With this tiny edge, Yue Feng made several consecutive casts, fixed-point throws, changed marker positions to search, farther, closer, even stabbing toad, trying every possible way he could think of.

The result was no further fish catch entered the creel.

At this point, Han Luofeng was getting nervous.

Could it be that the fish aren’t biting at all, and that one next door was a slip through the net, a lucky catch?

If it’s a wrong fishing method model, and there’s no use further, then the previous strategy would take a loss.

After all, the value of one fish under a speed of over a hundred fish condition is completely different from the value under a condition of one or two fish per hour.

As Han Luofeng continued to weigh the pros and cons in his mind thinking at high speed, Yue Feng’s float gave another small suspension, and then a half-eye pause.

Lift the rod and hook the fish!

Another carp!

2:0, Yue Feng leads with two tails.

What’s going on? Where was the problem? Why did the same full Flying Lead yield two for the competition, but not a small action for his side?

Could it be the flavor was wrong? The state was wrong? Or was trolling method wrong? It shouldn’t be, what was it after all?

The psychological construction before the competition, worked on diligently for a long time, collapsed at this moment of high-intensity pressure, Han Luofeng panicked!

The continuous capture of two carps gave Yue Feng a deeper understanding of the fish conditions.

The carp is tough and durable, resistant to high temperatures and low oxygen. In the relatively extreme mixed fish conditions, it’s one of the few fish that may open their mouths to feed.

Two consecutive carps were caught, which means that currently, the open-mouthed fish in the pit are likely only carp, while the pre-judged carp or other large fish are difficult to catch at this point.

With this judgment, Yue Feng took out half of the bait ball from the food box, then sprayed some Energy Fruit Acid and Medicinal Wine on the bait ball to intensify the flavor, then hooked and cast into the water again.

Energy Fruit Acid, during relatively high temperature periods at noon, can increase a certain flavor penetration and promote feeding.

And the Medicinal Wine, its effect is very comprehensive, paired with Energy Fruit Acid, it actually works well with carps and carp alike. In Yue Feng’s understanding, if there are fish around, adding this might yield good effects.

After adjusting the flavors of the bait, one shouldn’t say, merely on the third cast, another fish was on the line!

This time the fish wasn’t a carp, but a carp!

The fishing rod was bent into an exaggerated arc by the fish underwater, accompanied by high-frequency line sounds, it felt as if a giant intruder was caught.

However, Yue Feng had no excitement, the fish was hooked, and with a 0.3 subline, the success rate of catching it was extremely slim.

Sure enough, after a few seconds of persistence, the rod rebounded, the subline cut, and the fish escaped.
